It made Democrats tired when
the Examiner came out the day
after election and said, editorially;
that free silver and anti-expansion
was a fake and a delusion and had
been' a - Jonah" to democracy all
through the campaign. These two
issues were played 'foe all they were
worth for votes during the campaign
but when they didn't -win the ."Ex-
, aminer was honest, enough to ad
mit that it' had been jollying its

Echoes From the Street,
. W. H. Meeker: "I tell you business
is good. We never before did tho
amount of business we 'are doing this
fall." Why is it? Well, I couldn't tell
you exactly how It does come about. I
might say it was because we are carry
ing a better line of goods that would
be true, but it might not be the real
cause. I might say the people had
more money but it might be said that
that was political talk, and Bince elec
tion is over I don't care to continue the
war into an issue that's past and gone.
However, business is good. - we had a
