coat called a "Great
Coat" by the makers, Hart,
Schaffner & Marx. When
you see it, that's what you'll
call it you'll say—"This is
Certainly a great." It is in
fact, as well as in name, big,
roomy, double-breasted, for
^wintry days and nights—a
great coat. More style than
an ulster. Better sie the
great coat—it's great.

More space was devoted to the Isth
mian canal than any other feature of
the president's message. The failure
of the treaty with Colombia, the revo
lution in Panama and the recognition
pf tlje new republic by the U. S. were
fully, explained. Conditions irt the isth

declared the extra ses­
12
by Speaker Cannon and at I took a
recess until 1:30. ,/
When both houses reassembled
President Roosevelt was informed that
congress was ready for business and
he sent his message.
The message was the shortest ever
submitted by a president of the U. S.
to a regular session of congress. The
country was congratulated on the
achievements of the past year and es
pecial attention was devoted to the de
partment of labor and commerce, which
was authorized by the last congress.
The different bureaus
weTe
explained
and the work outlined.
The president referred to the condi
tions between capital and labor and
the necessity of the government holding
in check' unscrupulous men of either
class.
Reference was made to the fact that
the expenditures of the government for
the last fiscal year were
$54,297,667
less
than the receipts, but the indications
for the next fiscal year pointed to a
possible shortage because of decreased
revenues.
Under present conditions the presi
dent thought it would be unwise to at
tempt any reconstruction of the mone
tary systen?.
A commission composed of the sec
retary of the navy, the postmaster gen
eral and the secretary of commerce and
labor with such ^embers of the senate
and house as was deemed advisable was
suggested to investigate and report to
the next session of congress on the
best methods to establish a merchant
marine, so the U. S. could resume its
former position in. the ocean carrying
trade.

rhc Editor of The Grand Forks Herald
Finds Office Holding Collars
Are Too Galling.
Has Resigned As Register of the
Landoffkre and Will Fight
ihe "Old Gang."
Grand Potks, Dec. 7.—Editor Geo. B.
Winship of The Grand Forks Herald
has resigned the office of register of
the landoffice to which he was appoint
ed several months agp. His resignation
has been in the hands of the president
for a month.
Register Winship announces that his
primary reason for quitting the Office
was his failure to secure an extended
leave of absence. He wishes to spend
the winter in a wanner climate and
could not get away for more than thirty
days under ther uling of the secretary
of the interior
His second and perhaps the chief rea
son for quitting the job is that he finds
the official collar a galling one. His
office was secured at what he terms too
great a price and editorial utterances
of his paper have been necessarily re
stricted as the price of his plum. He
states unequivocally that he intends to
fight what he terms the old gang in
state politics and will go after them hard
in the future. His wishes entire free
dom from any control and proposes to
make a lively campaign in North Da
kota next year.
It is thought Col. W. H. Brown of
this city may succeed Winship.

examine our stock before buying, as our Diamonda were purchased
early in the summer, since which time there has been two advances of
5 Per Cent each.
Our stock from last year is complete in all Sizes and we are wil
ling to give our customers the benefit of last year's prices, although
Diamonds advanced 10 per cent from October, 1902, to October, 1903.
Early in the summer (this year) we purchased heavily in Diamonds, un
derstanding there would be another advance this fall, which came—
one of 5 per cent, Oct. 1st another of 5 per cent, Nov. 1st. We can
save our customers at least io per cent on some, 20 per cent which
can be considered a big savftig as Diamonds are sold on a very clou
margin.. Do not fail to call in and see us, before buying.
