'You’d be surprised if you "knew all the " changes going on in the shoe busineSS;I had one myself last week when I discoveredihat we had sold in the past three months, more men’s patent-leather shoes at $5 to $7, than of calf-skin. I knew I had a large sale of these shoes, but didn’t knew it had grown to such proportions. I must have the right shoes, Patent-leather is uncertain in o ‘ wear, but I seem to have good luck with mine---perhaps it is something more. I sell a man’s French patent- leather shoe at $5. 1 don’t think its equal is sold in town at less than $6. JoHNG. HOWLAND. ' 405 Main' Street. New York, Sept. 7th, 1891. We like a careful buyer— one who knows pretty accur- ately what he wants and takes time to examine our garments, noting the details of trimming, stitching, fit and finish. When we once thoroughly satisfy such a person the chances are we have secured a regular cus- tomer, and that’s, what every good merchant most values. There are a few plain facts that people must learn if they would become successful pur- chasers. The first is that price means nothing till you see the goods; that an overcoat or suit of any mentioned fabric costs $25 in one store and $15 in another tells you nothing. The $25 garment may be . worth $30, whilezthe $15 one may not be worth carrying away. If you have a friend who knows clothing bring him along, and after you’ve select- ed we’d like you to wear our clothes into some of these “cheap” stores und compare. Ours can be returned, you know, but if you buy the other man’s first. it may not be so easy to get your money back afterwards.

' VBOOMAN His LIEUTENANT The Young Collector Was ,yomluated ion the First Ballot and the Vote Made Unanimous—All Other Nomin- ations by Acclamatlon. ROCHESTER, Sept. 11.-.—The Republinan state convention has completed its worll and the delegates have nearly all do parted for their homes, but the echoes oi Fassett’s wonderful beam still permeate the air. and the enthusiasm of those . .dele gates who still remain is unbounded, and as with one voice they declare the ticket the strongest that could have been nomi~ nated. It is as follows: For governor, J. Sloat Fassett, Chemung county; lieuten. ant governor. John W. Vrooman, Herki- ' .1. SLOAT rAssn'r'r. mer county; secretary of state, ex-Senatm E. F. O’Connor,Kings county; comptroller, Arthur. C. Wade, Chautauqua county; treasurer, Ira M. Hedges, Rockiand coun- ty; attorney; general, William A. Suther- land, Monroe county; state engineer and surveyor, Verplanok Colvin, Albany county. ‘ When the convention assembled attei recess the committee on resolutions was not ready to report, 80 nominations were declared in order. A letter from Andrew D. White withdrawing his name as candi- date was read. senator Eugene O’Connor, , of Binghamton, then-placed in nomina- tion for governor J. Sloat Fassett, of Che mung. _T. M. Farthing,_.,,gfhErie, as “the voice of the workingmen and farmers,” nominated Philip Becker, ofBuifalo.. Mr. Williams, of Kings," nominated gGengral SteWart L.‘ Woodford. James H.j-Po'tts, of Troy, presented the name ,of General Carr. The name of Mr. Wadsworth was presented by General Butterfield. During the nominating speeches, D. J. Kenefick, of Buflalo, who spoke in sup- port of Becker, created a sensation by re- ferring to Folger’s defeat in 1882, and de- claring that the people did not want a can- didate who was holding Ofiice under the national administration. The Becker ele ment sought to adjourn the convention until tomorrow for a ballot, but the efiort was stormed down, when the matterwas put to vote. Then the roll call was or dered and the balloting at once was pro-' ceeded with. __ . .- , Fassett’s Nomination. The first blow was struck byv-Albany county, when the chairman stood on his feet and shouted, "Fourteen ‘vo'tes ' for Woodford. New York plumped 133 votes into the Fassett. basket. Onondaga gave fourteen votes, Orange county chipped in thirteen, and so on until Steuben wai reached. Then there was a break, General Woodford was seen climbing upon a chair in the Kings county row. Instinctively all who saw knew a break was coming. “I find now,” the gentleman said, “that that splendid young brother, J. ,S. Fas- sett, has now a clean majority of all possi- ble votes, and. I now ask permission to cast the eighty-one votes of Kings county solid for Senator Fassett, and I move you, Mr. Chairman, that the nemination oi Mr. Fassett be made unanimous.” Almost before General Woodfoid had resumed the chair young Mr. Kenefick, 01 Buffalo, who made the sensational speech in behalf 01’ Becker, was on his feet. “1 am authorized, sir,” he cried, “to turn JOHN W. ‘VROOMAN. The confusion grew and increased when the name of Mr. .Wadsworth was with- drawn,.and his ballots Were turned over to the Chemung man. General Carr’s ad- herents then hurried into camp. Senator Sloan ,made a brief Fassett talk, and the Woodford'motion then was carried with a rush and with cheers, making Mr. Fas sett’s nomination unanimous, while the gun outside the hall began booming a gubernatorial salute of thirteen guns. General Woodford, Congressman Raine: and General, Husted were deputed to es- cort Mr. Fassett to the hall. The Nominee’s Speech. Candidate Fassett m0unted the plat form, and after prolonged applause be gan his address, in the course of which he said: I regard your action as a trumpet call to duty, ass command to undertake a crusade against the Democracy of this state, with all that im piles of Hillism and Tammanyism, and that command I shall obey. I accept your invita tion with all that it means. The Republican record of nine years has been a perpetual pro test against the doctrine of prostituting through purely political and partisan purposes the great powers of public ofiice. The Republican party as always been grandest, has always bee! Fassett.” .Kings county went sclid for " fi greatest and has never been defeated when it had its eye fixed upon its principles.

The platform, as adopted, declares that to the principles on which the national victory was won in 1888; commendsthe administration of President Harrison and. eulogizes the conduct of the departments" of state, navy and treasury; approves of [the tariff legislation and protective policy of the last congress, and ind‘orse's the policy of reciprocity; indo'rses the silver act of July 14, 1890, and demands with President Harrison that every dollar issued by the. government, whether paper or coin, shall be as good as every other dollar; favors. the fulfillment of the pledges given to the soldiers of the Union that the nation which they saved would not fail in just treatment of surviving veterans and. of widows and orphans of those who sacri- ficed their lives that the nation might live, and approves the speedy construction of the Nicaragua canal under American charter, by American enterprise and with American capital. . On the question of labor the platform recognizes the necessity of proper legisla. tion to protect its interests, indorses the Fassett law, commends the rigid enforce- . ment of the alien‘ labor contract law and indorses the laws to prevent the influx of criminal classes from foreign nations. Laws for the protection of the ballot and against illegal combinations and trusts are demanded; the persecutions of the Jews in Russia are denounced; genuine reform in the civil service is favored, and the Democratic administration of the state is denounced for fostering corruption in the departments and prostituting the canals and public institutions to the am- bition of its selfish executive. The Liquor Question. On the liquor question the platform re iterates the Republican declaration for comprehensive and efficient legislation for giving local option by counties, towns and cities, and restriction-by taxation in such localities as do not by, option exclude the traffic; '3. furtherlequalization of taxation ‘on the lines heretofore followed by the Re publican party of the state is demanded; the amendment of the ballot law by the substitution for the unofficial “paster” ballot of the “blanket” ofiicial ballot, upon Which the names of candidates shall be compactly grouped, rendering the vot' ing duly easy, treatingficandidates with equal justice, lessening Opportunities ‘for fraud, bribery and corruption, and largely reducing the expense of election is fa- vored, and the adoption of an amendment to the locustitution requiring the passage of a general bill for the government of cities is approved. The platform closes by denouncing the unpatriotic effort of David B. Hill through the lost Democratic assembly toplace this state in an unfriendly attitude toward the World’s Columbian exposition to be held in‘ Chicago in 1893, and favoring early ac tion by the next legislature providing for a proper exhibit for the state, and demand- ing the adoption of an amendment to sec- tion 13 of article 60f the constitution of this state, expunging therefrom the pro- vision made by the payment of the salary of any judicial officer after the expiration of his term of office. Sealed with Kisses. Before leaving Rochester Mr. Fassett sent to President Harrison his resignation as. collector of the port of New York. One of the most interesting scenes of the day was when Mr. Fassett, after conclud- ing his speech, turned to Mrs. Fassett,‘ his mother and sister, who were sitting on the platform drinking in his words, and embraced and kissed them. The conven- tion was electrified by the sight, and rising to their feet the delegates cheered and cheered again. A Democratic Victory. NEWPORT, R. I. , Sept. 11.-—The city elec- tion resulted in a victory for the Demo crats, being- an almost complete overturn.

In this city the people rushed in a panic from their beds and houses to the open country, shrieking and praying, while buildings cracked, swayed and fell; .deep fine dust filled the air and clogged the lungs, and the heaving of the earth threw strong men from their feet.
