WE THING AT A TIME
In liquor Legislation is All the Ke
publicans Care to Attempt.
BKOOKS' BILL WILL BE LET ALONE
Until the Fate of the Constitutional Amend
ment is Settled.
CHANGERS OrrOSED TO CHICAGO BEEF.
Large Earns of Money Being Demsuiaea" From the State
for Appropriations.
The Republican legislators have finally
determined not to hare any further liqnor
legislation until the natter of Constitu
tional prohibition is finally determined, one
way or the other. Among the bills intro
duced yesterday was one to allow the pre
serving of game on estates, after the English
iashion. The appropriations demanded are
already amounting away up into the mil
lions.
rntOM A STAFF COBnESrOXIEXT.3
Haeeisbcrg, January 23. Senator
Cooper's high license bill blazed meteor
like across the Legislative heaven, and
meteor-like, seems to have winked out.
The Delaware man, however, succeeded in
staggering the party programme for a time,
and not until to-day was it fully decided
that the original plan would be adhered to
and the strong hand of suppression placed
on all liquor legislation during the present
session. There is the highest authority for
this statement In the language of one
gentleman, if the Constitutional amendment
passes there will be no need for license
legislation, and if it does not, there will be
plenty of time to improve the present law.
The feeling has been strengthened by the
Cooper episode, that the Republican party
in the present critical position cannot afford
to take any action that will cause the slight
est shadow of suspicion that the party is
acting in bad faith in submitting the prohi
bition amendment with one hand, while
putting license legislation forward with the
other.
Mr. Cooper is generally recognized to be
looking out for himself, and his friendship
for high license now is declared to be in
Etrangc contrast to his defeat of the local
option law in years gone by. The position
of the Republicans in opposition to Mr.
Cooper is declared to have been de
cided on at a meeting to-day in Senator
Delamater's room.
Five gentlemen were to-day permitted o
record their votes against the submission of
the prohibitory amendment. Four were
alfo psrmitted to record their votes for it,
among them Mr. "White, of Allegheny, who
was absent yesterday. Simpson.

FROM A STAFF COBBESrOXDEXT.
Harkisbubg, January 23. The Judici
ary General Committee listened to argu
ments to-day in favor of the Granger meat
bill. J. F. Beihlstein, Andrew Kalch
thaler and William and Fred Peters, rep
resenting the Pittsburg butchers, appeared
before the committee. Mr. AVarthman, of
Philadelphia, and Master Rhone, and Sec
retary Thomas, of the State Grange, also ap
peared. Mr.Warthman, of Fhiladelphia,and
the Pittsburg gentlemen spoke of the lackof
inspection at Chicago, and the possible dis
semination of disease thereby. Mr. "Warth
man also spoke of the evil effect of thawirg
and again freezing meat in transit. The
representations on these branches of the sub
ject were extremely revolting. Mr. "Warth
man paid a high compliment to Mr. Mc
Cutcheon, of the Pittsburg Health Depart
ment, for his exposure of the Chicago meth
ods. For five years before Mr. McCutcheon's
investigation he had seen nothing about
lump-jaw in the stockjournals, but now
they are full of the subject
The representatives of the Grange freely
admit that the intent of the bill is to aid
Pennsylvania stock raisers. It was stated
that the Chicago meat packers first destroyed
the stock raisers' business by cutting prices,
and, when it was destroyed, immediately
advanced the rate again. Secretary Rhone
declared emphatically that the bill was a
farmers' bill, but the Grance refnsed no aid
offered from any quarter. The Chicago men
now hold their business by making rates to
retailers lower than the farmer's can afford
to sell for. The Pittsburg butchers said, in
leaving the committee, that they would
rather buy their stock from near by than
from Chicago, as stock shipped far was
poorly cared for and in poor condition on its
arrivaL
THAT'S THE WAT THE MONET GOES.

This week. 'Tis the week for the professional man, the business man,
the mechanic, the workingman. 'Tis the week for the masses; the week
for the people. Saturday next sees the end of our greatest of all busi
ness ventures of giving away free every twentieth sale, no matter
what the purchase may be, and altho' we have, since the inauguration of
this great andf novel plan of ours, given away OVER TWO THOUSAND
PURCHASES, we're willing to make the number
FIVE THOUSAND BY SATURDAY EVENING NEXT.
The more the merrier, the greater the number the better we like it
There's no funny business or any "canoodling" about this offer of ours;
it is perfectly legitimate and is carried out in the strictest, fairest and
most impartial manner. No matter who the man, woman or child is; no
matter what the purchase may be, if it be a twentieth sale (if so it will
be indicated by the sounding of a gong), the fortunate twentieth pur
chaser gets purchase money back, goods for nothing, and our congratu
lations on being the lucky one.
WE'VE FURTHER IMPORTANT NEWS FOR YOU
WE TAKE STOCK FEBRUARY I.
This means what? Why that in order to reduce our stock to the
smallest possible dimensions we offer the most phenomenal bargains in
Clothing, Hats, Shoes and Furnishing Goods ever seen; name lower
prices than ever heard of before and undersell every competing house
from 25 to 40 per cent. In doing these things a great concern like ours
must of necessity cause much grief and many sorrows among merchants
who pin their faith to "shams." Our whole policy is a standing rebuke
to imposition. Let us advise you:
.:. BUY THIS WEEK IF YOU'D SAVE BIG MONEY. .:.
What is more, buy here. Despite what other dealers say it is our busi
ness to see that we are not undersold just as much as it is for us to give
you goods which are reliable. We fear not hysterical advertisements
from competing stores that are run on the "get all you can principle."
Again we say, come and see us this week.
