DOWN WITH
TRUSTS.
The LEATHER TRUST with its
120 million dollar syndicate
forces HIGHER PRICES on all kinds of
leather. .Manufacturers are powerless,
and you must not imagine that there
is any doubt as to the IMMEDIATE,
DECIDED and PERMANENT AD
VANCE on all kinds of leather shoes.
The prices have already been advan
ced. FORTY SIX of the largest New
England shoe uiauufaaturers have ad
vanced prices 10 to i!5 cents a pair
How can we help ourselves? The iron
hand of monopoly crushes hard; the
wage-workers bear the brunt. They
are emphatically DOWN ON TRUSTS
and we think we see where they are
right.
WE WILL DO YOU GOOD
WHILE WE CAN.
We shall not mark up any of onr
present large stock of Ladie's, Misses
and Children's high or low cut shoes
Our customers who act quickly and buy
now will save money. They will
reap the benefits of our recent purch-
chases at positively no advance at all.
Next fall and winter it may be different
We do our level best to buy right so
as to sell right and have been wouder-
fully successful. If there is any inside
truck on prices of any kind of goods
to be had our friends shall have it.
The benefit will be mutual.

One of the great features of the day
will be the Lecture by Ex-Gov. Bob
Taylor, of Tennessee, who is so well
known as the "Fiddling Governor."
The Boston Journal has this to say
of him :
"He began by saying a glowing
eulogy to the music of the fiddle. The
speaker warmly eulogixed theaommjn
people of America in general, and
ended with a genuine prose poem.Va
burst of rhetoric about the beauties of
natute, which itself was worth going
far to bear. As a whole it was very
enjoyable, and every body present
seemed well satisfied "
The Governor's Guards secured the
Speaker, so let all go and enjoy a
jrood laugh. Secure your seats at
