Pes Moines, Aug. 15. The question
of the succession of the seat of the
lute Senator Allison Is a subject of
all Importance In Iowa and northwest
ern politics. In the recent senatorlil
primaries when Senator Allison wan
renominated In a party vote with a fair
majority over (iovernor Cummins, the
ihsue was squarely drawn between th.:
Allison faction and the Cummins fac
tion by the Republican party in Iowa.
In the Allison faction wore practically
all of the old-timers In Iowa politics
aril entirely all of the "organization."
In the Cummins faction were the Alli
son enemies, the tariff reformers nnd
a host of personal admirers which the
A,,t governor had gathered about him. When

there was a temporary truce when the
fovernor declared that he and his
riends would support the primaries'
nominee. With the death of this nomi
nee, however, the old battle has been
along the samo old lines.
It matters little whether the governor
gives an honorary appointment for the
next few months "to some of his friends;
It matters little whether he retires nnd
allows the lieutenant-governor to ap

Recently King Peter held a birthday

Thl3 legislative contest will develop
along the same old Cummins an 1 anli
I'limmln.i lines. It Is generally believed
that ex -Congressman Kobert !. Co.islns
v.HI be the partv upon whom will fall
the Allison mantle. Cousins voluntarily
retired from the house of representa
tives a short time ago. This was done.
It Is said, for the distinct purpose of
removing himself from the Cummins
and anti-Cummins struggle. Whether
Mr. Cousins will now st.-p forth as
the leader of the old organization hAs
not been determined, but a definite an
nouncement of a crusade Is expected
dally. It Is very evident, Iowans say,
that Mr. Cousins will accept the vacancy
made by Allison's death and become
the accredited leader of th" Allison
wing of the party in a life find death
struggle during the coming cainpnlt-n.
which will find Its culmination in the
action of the legislature electing Sena
tor Allison's successor.
"Bob'' Cousins is an lowan born nnd
bred. Ho Is 4S years of age. He Is
a lawyer by profession and practice.
He has served seven years In the lower
house of congress from the Fifth Iowa
district. He was always one of the
most popular men In the lower house
at Washington, a brilliant orator nnd
a strong legislator. His voluntary re
tirement from the house has always
been something of a conundrum to the
country at large.
If there be truth In this latest sena
torial situation. Cousins' formal retire
ment will be largely explained.

solving the various problems before the
country. A new society has come for
ward and offered "horoscope scholar
ships," each worth $75.
Strangely enough, these scholarships,
while competitive, do not depend on the
efforts of the children themselves. Par
ents who v.ish to win a $75 horoscope
scholarship have to fill out a competi
tion form, giving the name of the child,
date and hour of birth, and w here the

And a store full of others equal y as good Pianos at smallest known terms and prices
We're not satisfied to just plod along during even a dull summer. We are winning fine large busi
ness by doing extraordinary things.. A few days ago o offered one hundred of our best medium
priced pianos at greatest low prices ever made befnre on reliable instruments and on the lowest terms
ever made in the northwest by a reliable concern One Dollar a Week. The result the entire hun
dred were taken by conservative and careful buyers. It was a great offering because of the values
"jvcii and the terms of paying and every statement in our advertisements was found carried out to
the letter by all who investigated. We were not satisfied to remain idle and admit business was dull.
It certainly wasn't dr.ll here because we made it good, not only good but extraordinary. Never was
there such selling 10 15 some dnv? last week 20 pianos a day.
It's true we sacrificed profits yes in some cases a small portion of actual cost, some would say lost
nv.ncy. but we get the business and we made a hundred more friends for the house good and lasnrnjr.
friends too, every one of them.
And now we are going to make some nv.re friends Seventy-five during the next ten days because
each and every purchaser of above bargains will find a positive saving of $125 to $200 according to
the instrument selected. The terms will be just as stated Six dollars when you select your piano,
then only six a mcnth with regular bank rale nf interest for ti'ine accommodation not on the whole
amount but on deferred payments only interest being the only difference between the actual spot
cash prices quoted and time payments.
THL RLASON
Simply w must sell them warehouse chuck full of pianos and over ten carloads about to arrive,
among them three carloads of Baby Grands. Storeroom on 13th and Northrup streets the largest
in the country is filled from top to bottom and when a hundred were sold during past ten days we
only cintncrK-ed to notice they're! gone. -
Better by far to have seventy-five more pianos in Portland homes even at actual cost, than to carry
them in stock somewhere outside and pay extra insurance, extra handling, etc. None bu a house like
Filers, with unlimited capita!, could afford to do this we are satisfied just now in fact have to be
satisfied tp get merely the interest on otir money which you pay on time purchase.
If you have a piano to buy now, or likely to have to furnish your home with an instrument within two
years, yes five years, come here this week and share in these reductions.
Buy during the dull season, when the seller must sell, and save good solid money on the transac
tion, payments a little less than twenty cents a day. The pianos offered here Monday morning are
worthy of a place in any home We do not mention the makes to do so would be an injustice to the
manufacturer as they are known from ocean to ocean, and are handled by the best dealers over the
United States, who would suffer should we advertise the names of the pianos offered at such great
reductions.
Sale Begins Monday at 9 A, M.
Be sure and bring six dollars, and be in time. We will sell this lot in short order.
The famous Eilers guarantee: "Your Money Back if not Satisfactory," goes with each piano, also
exchange privilege.
