THEFT
Of Bis Records Feared by
Auditor Hopkins-Why lie
Refuses to Show Up
oThoro has boon much speculation ns
to what wore the "personal roaoiis"
of Auditor Hopkins for refusing to
present his records warrant stubs
and vouchers at the roomBof tho log-
Ulatlvc committee. The auditor "con-
sented to make a brlof statement to-
day concerning his attitude.
"hly reasons for refusing to take my
records and voUQhers to tho rooms of
the committee aro tlinplo. Certain
hangers-on about tho legislature are
doing all in their power to ombarass
me. What they want is to get posses-
sion of my records and vouchors and
keep them fco that tho businots of my
office may be titd up I dou't propose
to bo the victim of such an outrageous
game. I would rather go to jail. I
am not afraid of the outcomo of the
cbbo. If it is contempt for an officer
to protect himself from ghou s then I
suppose I am in contempt. 'Ill at is all
I caro to say."

Those legislators or rather some of
them are malting hurdy-gurdies of

jure tho administration by sorocco-
blasts of resolutions. Karnes has the
big end and tho legislature should bow
in meek submission. I was onco a
Flynn supporter and now I am both a
Flynn and Harnes supportor. I cry for
peace prosperity and ca'm Republi-
canism but my wordr are empty nnd

A WEEK OF ENTERTAINMENT.
THIS is considered usually the dullest season of the year and to the averaee merchant IT is. Ordinarily trade is dull goods more slow sales are small taxes are due. eastern creditors look for a fc tlement of their
accounts and to the average merchant it is truly a season op discontent. But we are in a po-ftion to entertain you. We have no haiid lock stouy to tell you we are not afllicted with tiic A JM'-nts
of the avehaqk MKKCHANi . Of course we have to pay taxks but n hky aiib paid. Of course we have to eat but that is a pleasure. Of course we b-ve to sell goons at small margins but we ;.re uhcdto tnai
ns that is the one mccihst of our great success lie.e in Outhrie. We buy cur goods at such a p-ice that we can app- udio sell cheap. Who ever before in the hibtc ry of this terntoiy . vr heard ol a i me all
wool kisksey men's SIZE OVMICOAT bfing sold at $5.50? There is not anutl-er merchant in town that did not pay more for it. We have no kick coming We have be n we-1 treated here. W- have mane many
friend-. We have sold a vast qi-antity of goods. And we are pleased that we cist our lot among you. Some do iot like us. But you sift the thing ri lit down and th- y are envious. W e don t tec. nat way
towards any of our competitors. We wisli they could all do well. We wish cot on was woith 7 or 8 cents anv way. Wheat at $1.00 would suit us. Then that all wool suit we are now offering (ntl say its a
ma-ker too) at HftO would easily bring usO.BO and you would feel fully ab'e and willing to pay i. Bm we are digressing. We started out to entertain you and we nearly forgot our subject. i n we write
an ad we imagine we a-e talking confidentially to you. Anybodv can fill a space in a newspaper and call things by high sounding names and quote prices but when it comes to shouint the goods ad. rti-eti un.
