Since you bave been to all tbo openings and in ad a intelligent coropari
son, nothing these types can tell you could more firmly convioce you nf our
supremacy in Millinery. Neither size of stock nor breadth of assortment
prove factors of much moment in influencing the sale of such specialties.
What ultimately counts is correctness of taste, exclusivenees of effects and
that subtle, indefinable something, called ftyle. To be candid, we are mere
ly repeating what we are told every day by women who know, too when
we add that those are the points which differentiate OUR Hats from those
of the common run.
An Ideal Dress Goods Stock.
Each season it becomes clearer thnt you'll have to depend on this store
for the maximum of style and quality at the miuimum price. And in no
department is this more emphatically evinced than in Wool Dress Goods.
A case in point:
- 47-inch Panama Cloths of light weight equally suitable for coats or
costumes, in black and all the new shades of wioe.seal brown, golden brown,
cadet, amethyst, cardinal, tan, redesa, myrtle and navy only $1 the yard.
Broadcloths are in Favor.
If you have given any attention to matters of fashion, you will hardly
fail to note how highly broadcloths are regarded this season for tailored gar
ments. What is there richer than a broadcloth, and while one season it
may be favored more than another, as it is this fall, it is always good. An
excellent assortment here in the staple shades and the special colors of the
season. $1, $1.25, $1.50, $2.

Judging by the present cativity in our fur store, it might be imagined
that the white flakes had already fallen. It means that frugal, loresightful

now presented. May we suggest that it might be to your advantage to in

to anticipate so far in advance of the season.

Special Correspondence.
Philadelphia, Oct. 10.
' With the mask removed from the so
railed reform party in this city, Re
publicans everywhere cannot but be
disgusted with the revelations of hy
pocrisy, treachery and deceit, and they
are going to the polls to cast an em
phatic vote of condemnation of the
new political combine which is seek
ing to wreck the Republican party In
Philadelphia.
Mayor Weaver is no longer taken
seriously In his public statements and
he has ceased to have the respect ot
men who are familiar with the politi
cal Intrigue which has been under way
In this city since Weaver deserted the
Republican colors and took his entire
administration over to theWanamaker-Gordon-Van
Valkeuburg camp, which
has for years been the refuge of In
surgents and party traitors of all
classes and conditions.
A Deep Laid 8cheme.
The City Party which was started
by some well-meaning citizens, who
were sincerely desirlous of reform, has
been captured by the Wanamaker
Gordon-Van ValRenburg combine, and
It no longer stands for anything which
its original promoters contemplated.
Like the Lincoln Party in the state,
the City Party has become an asset ot
Wanamakerlsm and Is being used In
a desperate campaign to disrupt the
Republican party to further tho game
which the Wanamaker politicians bave
in mind for the future.
James Gay Gordon, Democrat, for
governor, and John Wanamaker, ot
doubtful political standing, for United
States senator, is the program on the
cards of the men who are manipulat
ing the City Party' In this city and the
Lincoln Party In Pennsylvania.
As In previous campaigns when the
Republican party was attacked In the
rear by Wanamaker guerrillas and at
tempts were made to defeat good Re
publicans, regularly and honestly nom
inated in accordance with the rules
and regulations of the party, the rank
and Ale of the Republican organization
stand tme and steadfast and are pre
pared to beat back the Insurgent crew
to defeat and dismay at the coming
election.
In the other Wanamaker campaigns
the Republican party was confronted
with the most lavish expenditure ot
money to promote dissension and dis
cord In Its ranks and to strengthen
the Democratic allies of these Insur
gents. On every hand there Is seen today
the same evidence ot the use of money
to further the schemes of the men who
are striving to defeat the Republican
candidates, but there Is now the addi
tional power of the Weaver adminis
tration being exerted with a most fla
grant disregard of public pledges of
reform and a most defiant spirit of In
difference to popular sentiment.
"The full power of my administra
tion" are the words that come to the
lips of every Republican citizen of
the Quaker City when he reads of the
disgraceful exhibitions of police and
firemen engaged In political work and
recalls the sensational speech made
by Mayor Weaver when, In addressing
a mass meeting In the South Broad
Street Theatre, he announced that he
had deserted the Republican party,
and that "the full power of my admin
istration" would be arrayed against
the candidates on the Republican
ticket.
Since then Mayor Weaver has spent
much time with former Judge Gordon,
Democrat, and E. A. Van Valkenburg,
Wanamaker's political manager In
Wanamaker's North American build
ing. In consultation regarding the use
of the "power of my administration"
to serve the ends of Wanamakerlsm.
Gordon and Van Valkenburg are
Weaver's most regular callers at his
public office. It Is an open secret that
former Judge Gordon Is the political
dictator of the Weaver administration,
and that what he says "goes "
Gordon a Reckless Politician,
With that recklessness which has
characterized Judge Gordon's career,
both while on nnd off the bench, the
Weaver administration Is today amaz
ing and startling the citizens nf Phila
delphia with the daring and boldnosa
of Its actions.
Orders are being Issued to the po
licemen over the lieutenants' desks
in the police station houses for them
to turn In against the Republican
party.
Caucuses are being held In every
ward In the city, composed of office
holders of the various departments
under the Weaver administration and
at which the policemen and firemon
predominate. Campaign assessments
are there levied to further the cause
of the Weaver-Gordon-Wanamakor
party and to plan for the formation
of John Weaver Marching Clubs made
up of city employes, to turn out In pa
rades In the interest of the candidates
of the City Party.
At these caucuses police lieutenants
and sergennls are among those who

address the employes of the city, all
of them Republicans, and tell them
that they must turn In for the City
Party ticket, as their "bread and but
ter" Is at Btake.
These are the exact words used by
one of the police lieutenants who apoks
to his men In a station house.
The orders to the lieutenants to do
this come directly from the city hall
and are given with the full knowledge
of Mayor Weaver. The lieutenants bave
not their hearts In the work, but ar
simply obeying orders.
Policemen are being used to canvass
election precincts against the Republi
can ticket. They are detailed in full
uniform to deliver calls for these meet
ings to the other city employee.
Policemen are employed in the dis
tribution of campaign buttons for the
City Party, and the police patrol wag
ons are used to deliver boxes of these
buttons.

City employes In every department
ot the Weaver administration are be
ing assessed to defray the expenses of
the City Party campaign.
Where Republican office holders un
der the mayor refuse either to work
for the City Party ticket or give part
of their wages to go Into Its treasury,
they are discharged without further
notice.
While the Republicans who are ro
unfortunate as to hold place under
Mayor Weaver are being Intimidated
and terrorized In the campaign to
wreck the Republican organization in
the Interest of Wanamakerlsm, the
Wanamaker owned and controlled or
subsidized newspapers are directing
their batteries, as usual, against every
man who has the courage to disregard
their attacks and apeak In favor ot
the Republican ticket
Never In tho history of Philadelphia
has there been such a damnable condi
tion of affairs from a journalistic stand
point. Wanamaker Interests dominate and
control the Democratic Philadelphia
Record; Wanamaker's son, "Tom,"
owns the North American, and Wana
maker's son-in-law, Wharburton, owns
the Philadelphia Evening Telegraph.
The Philadelphia Press, which for
years followed Wanamaker In hie In
surgent political campaigning when
Wannmnkcr sought to obtain the seat
occupied by the late Matthew Stanley
Quay In the United States senate, and
also tried to become United States sen
ator when Tenrose was first elected, Is
again lined up with the guerillas and
Is fighting the Republican candidates
with what little influence it has left
A Newspaper Trust's "Hold Up."
The remarkable spectacle Is present
ed In Republican Philadelphia of the
candidates on the Republican ticket
being compelled to pay, at advertising
rates, for the publication of their let
ters of acceptance of the nominations
of the Republican party.
To get the most ordinary mention ol
matters of Interest to Republicans In
the subsidized or Wanamaker con
trolled or owned newspapers. It Is nec
essary to go with cash to the business
office of the papers.
A number of leading manufacturers
and business men have subscribed a
fund to meet thla extraordinary ex
pense of the campaign for the Republi
can ticket. These newspapers, which
are suppresring news of interest to Re
publicans and which would be calcu
lated to aid the Republican cause, are
opposing the Republican state ticket
as well as the local candidates.
They are suppressing the news re
garding the police In politics and the
firemen In politics.
They are distorting the farts In every
matter in which Mayor Weaver Is con
cerned so as to play him up In the
light of a great reformer and public
benefactor.
They opposed the legislation before
councils calling for the deepening of
the Delaware river channel, while May
or Weaver opposed It Owing to the
firm and positive stand of the Repub
lican leaders and counellmen, this prop
osition finally passed councils, and
Weaver finally felt obliged to sign the
hill which he sought to defeat. These
newspapers then gave the credit to the
mayor, whereas he was absolutely en
titled to none, for It was the Republi
can leaders who made this condition of
affairs possible.
These newspapers are now trying to
make It appear that Mayor Weaver Is
to be congratulated and thanked by
the citizens who fought for the aboli
tion nf grade crossings, whereas he
should be denounced for his hostility
to the ordinance which was passed by
councils and which he vetoed.
The Republicans In councils, refus
ing to bow to the mayor, and recogniz
ing popular sentiment, passed the bill
over his veto. When It became a tow
despite him. the mayor came out In a
fiambnuyant statement in favor of
grade crossings and asking the cltl
rents to vote for the loan to provide
the money to abolish this evil. This
was done In an attempt to take credit
from the Republican party.
Any sane man would have remained
quiet, but Mayor Weaver, relying upon
the Wnnnmaker newspapers to give
him tho best of It and distort the
facts to serve his purposes, turned
somersault and completely changed
front.
Tho Wnnamnkcr newspapers have
since been trying to make It appear
that Weaver Is entitled to praise from
the citizens of Richmond, Kensington
and the Twentieth ward, who demand
ed the abolition of grade crossings.
