TWENTY-FIVE YEARS AGO
Wc came to this city and opened up a Retail Dry Goods Store on a small scale on Laporte street, in what is known as the Opera House Block.
We started in a small way and grew up to where we are now the Largest Retail Dry Goods and Carpet House in Marshall County. We attrib-
: ute our phenomenal success in a large degree to our methods of doing business, namely: Quick Sales, Small Profits and Courteous Treatment. Those are the points that gained us the confidence of the people of Marshall County. When we first came here people had to pay the merchants that were doing business at that time enormous profits, which we immediately commenced cutting down, and we are certain that we saved the people lots of money in the past twenty-five years. Now, as we start in on the next twenty-five years, we propose to start right by keeping up our reputation as Low-Priced Dry Goods Sellers. We will try to convince you when you come to see us that we are still the people that save your pocketbooks lots of money, if you will put your time against ours and compare notes. Our stock being so extensive, we will only name a few of our ANNIVERSARY SALE BARGAINS!

TARIFF RELIEF
Financial Outlook in England Becomes Depressing.
Increased Taxes Inevitable and limits of Preseut Methods Reached---Further Loans Not Feasible--- Revenue Duty Must be Laid On Import
London, Nov. 7 Deep concern, not to say apprehension, is daily manifested here in connection with the financial outlook. The speech at Bristol Monday night by Sir Michael HicksBeach, chancellor of the exchequer, has resolved the apprehension of increased taxation into a sharp and definite realization that further taxes must come. Consequently there has been a fall in consols which has added to the general sense of the critical nature of the situation. Financial and commercial circles are aware that the possibility of raising revenue by present methods of taxation has reached the limit and also that further loans cannot be made with safety. They are beginning an agitation in favor of a tariff on imports. Even Sir Bernhard Samuelson, the venerable free trader, thinks the time has come for England to adopt moderate customs duties all around. He recommends a general duty of 10 per cent on manufactures and 7 1/2 per cent on such articles of food and drink as are now exempt. These duties, he points out, are far below those of Germany. Sir Bernhard asserts that a tariff of this sort would raise a revenue of 16,000,000 pounds ($77,500,000) per annum, a sum equivalent to an income tax of eightpence in the pound. He further declares that the necessity of finding a solution for the existing problem is urgent and suggests that free traders generally revise their theories in the light of present conditions. United States Consul-General Osborne believes that England is fast nearing a new fiscal era in which protection will play an
important part. He says that the industrial element of the population is ready and anxious for the change and that the doctrinairies will recede from their advanced free trade position under the pressure of the tremendous financial necessities now confronting the country. In the meantime advocates of a revenue tariff have renewed the argument that England's lack of customs duties prevents it from negotiating desirable commercial treaties, and adds that the country must adopt protective measures to diminish the peril of foreign trusts.
Record Breaking Gun. As soon as the new trunnion hook can be received from the Bethlehem Steel company, work will be resumed at the United States arsenal at Watervliet on the new 16-inch gun which is to be made for Fort Hamilton in New York harbor. This gun will be the largest ever made in the world. It is a breech-loader, and the breech will be so constructed that a child can open and fire it. It will shoot a distance of 21 miles, but in order to do so, the shot will assume an altitude as high as Pike's Peak.
Keith Sings Sacred Songs. Joseph D. Keith, the murderer sentenced to hang in the state prison at Michigan City, Friday morning, spends much of his time singing sacred songs. It is said to be the opinion of the prison officials that the man will die game. The gallows were tested yesterday and found to work perfectly. It is announced that Keith's attorney, Hon. Frank B. Posey, of Evansville, Ind., will do no more toward saving Keith's neck. It is supposed he thinks all efforts will be useless.
Better Than Ever.
Those who have not heard the records the Columbia Phonograph company is now supplying have no conception of the changes and improvements that have recently been made. The Grahophone, in the meantime, has been correspondingly improved. Machines and records which were thought to be almost perfect, a few years ago are far out done in these times of unfaltering progress. Send $5 with your order to Columbia Phonograph Co., No. 88 Wabash Avenue, Chicago, and goods will be shipped C. O. D., for the balance. 6t2
Co!. R. M. Johnson Dead. Col. Iiuel M. Johnson died at the home of his sister in Elkhart, Tuesday afternoon, aged 65 years, his death following a few- weeks' illness, the best specialists not being able to afford him more than temporary relief. , Ituel M. Johnson had lived in Elkhart county nearly all his life; was a Douglas Demociat; raised a company of the 100th Indiana regiment in the dark days of 1862 while a young law student at Goshen; made a most creditable war record for which he received special mention, in the various positions from a captaincy to a colonency in that regiment, fighting in many battles' being taken . prisoner by the Rebels, escaping and being recaptured and then exchanged. Wlien he returned from the army he again entered the legal profession and became one of the prominent attorneys of Elkhart county. He was a Knight Templar and a 32nd degree Mason and one of the most prominent democratic politicians of the Thirteenth district. The hand of Time lays few wrinkles on the brow of them that take Rocky Mountain Tea this month. A great spring blessing. 35c. J. W. Hess.
Europe Gets Her Share. Why should the nations of Europe worry about our exports to their shores? Most of the goods go over in their ships. The more goods we sell them the more fares will go into the treasuries of the transatlantic liners. Of course, this may not always continue, but it has been a rich plan for the British, the Germans, the Dutch, the French, and even smaller maritime nations, and now they are trying to outdo one another in building new fleets of bigger and faster boats. Not only that, but lots of the money they send us goes back again in the form of railroad fares, all over Europe, hotel bills, fees and tips inumerable and all the lavish expenditure of a host of rich travelers. The balance of trade is in our favor, but we are not mean about spending the money, and Europe will think several times before she turns our picture to the wall.--- American Economist.
BIG STOCK SALE On account of scarcity of feed we will have a big sale of horses, cattle, sheep and hogs at farm near Lapaz, Tuesday Nov. 26. Ketcham & Wilson
Rolling Wheat Advised. A Kansas farmer claims to have demonstrated that the use of the roller will revolutionize the growing of wheat if used in accordance with the directions which he gives. This farmer rolls his fields after the winter wheat is sown; and then rolls it again and again after the plant is up. Next he turns in the cattle until the winter sets in, and in the spring renews the rolling until the plant is ready to joint. The object of the rolling is to compress the surface and prevent the evaporation of the moisture in the soil around the roots. This retains for the plant all the benefits of the snow and rain and gives it a vigorous growth which results in a heavy yield. It is said that by this method which is known as the "Campbell method," 40 bushels of wheat were raised on an acre of land that under the ordinary method of culture has yielded only ten or twelve bushels as the average.
To The Public. Allow me to say a few words in praise of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. I had a very severe cough and cold and feared I would get pneumonia, but after taking the second dose of this medicine I felt better. Three bottles of it cured my cold and the pains in my chest disappeared entirely. I am most respectfully yours for health, Ralph S. Meyers, 64-Thirty-seventh St., Wheeling, W. Va. For sale by J. W.

Indiana's Pensioners. During the fiscal year which ended June 30. 1901, $10,291, 896.75 was paid to 66,974 pensioners by the Indianapolis agency, while 70,481 pensioners paid by the Illinois agency received but $9,757,003.60. Only three other states have more pensioners on their rolls than Indiana, namely: New York, 88,794; Ohio 104,301; Pennsylvania, 104,345. In proportion to the number of men sent to the war no other state receives so much pension money as Indiana, except Ohio. LIKED IN PLYMOUTH!
