Dr. Acheron Candidate for Mayor.
Dr. Alexander W. Acheion, who
baa once served the city as mayor,
is a candidate again under the com*
nvsaion torm ot government. No
man in public lite is better and more
favorably known than Dr. Ale?i. W.
Acteson. It would not be irrele-
vant to say that his name is a house-
hold word in Denison. «
He be'ongs to that claas of men
who are always prominent in the
public eve and is a natural born
leader. The past cateer of Dr.
Ac! eson is so well known that any
reiteration is unnecessary.
It is the present and future which
concerns us most. When Dr. Ache-
son went out of office he bad mapped
out many measures which he con-
sidered would result in much good
for the material advancement of the
city. Public improvements was bis
hobby. He did not believe in the
standstill policy and thought that
the time had come when Denison
should get a move on herself. His
first move was for better sidewalks,
and it was under the inspiration of
his administration that the building
of brick sidewalks began. Having
a council to deal with who were op-
posed to him, he was handicapped
and bi* hsnds were tied, yet in spite
of all this, he made an impression
on the good of ihe city which
will be long remembered.
It is said that the administration
of Dr. Acheson was erratic in some
respects. Did you ever see a pub
he man ot the get-up order who be-
lieved in doing things that was
charged with being erratic? While
Dr. Acheson was mayor things were
doing^; Denison was talked about; his
public measures attracted state wide
attention. He once said to the
writer: “Before I get through I
will make a convert ot every one
who is opposing me, but it lakes
time.’’
He should at least be given an-
other term to determine what his
public policy is. He is an up-to-date
man in every respect and no moss
grows on his bark. The commis-
sion form of government is on trial
it’s success depends entirely on the
class of men who are elected. In
that respect it should aronse the in
terest of every citizen who has the
interest of Denison a» heart. To
elect incompetent men whose great
est interest will be the salary they
draw, condemns the commission
form of government at the start.
The city ot Denison is on trial; let
us elect men whom we know to be
honest, capable, untrameled with
promises to any clique, but who will
serve the city with an eye single to
its best interests.
Dr. Acheson fully understands
what is needed to place Denison in
the front rank of Texas cities, and
his position on public affairs entitles
his candidacy to the most respectful
consideration.

W. H. Halton as Commissioner-
W. H. Halton authorizes the Ga
zeitekr to announce bis candidacy
as commissioner in class 2 under
the new form of government. The
Denison Herald, in speaking ot Mr.
Halton, says:
“Mr. Halton is an enterprising
business man of Denison and has
served efficiently tor the past year
as an alderman in the city council.
His election was for a period of two
years, but the change in form of
government cuts short bis unfinished
term, and at the earnest solicitation
of many of his friends he has de
cided to seek a place as commis-
sioner.
“During the time Mr. Halton has
been in the council he has been a
member ot almost every working
committee of that body and has
given much of his time to matters
that he thought would be ot benefit
to Denison and the people residing
here.”
The above handsome compliment
is well deserved and will meet the
approval of all who have watched
Mr. Halton’s career in the council.
He will rank with the best of work-
ing members who ever sat in the
council.
Our Motto: “FAIR PLAY**
Ladies’ Suits at 10 per cent. Profit
We don’t believe in giving the men any price advantage and following our de-
termination fo sell men’s suits at a profit of io per cent, we announce the same profit
on ladies’ suits, which means a saving to you of from 93c to $6.00 on each suit you
buy. It's foolishness to try to match our prices on men’s and ladies’ suits. There’s
not a house in Texas that will even claim to come within 10 to 2 s per cent, erf our
prices.
Ladies’ suits that you pay $10 to $ 12.50 for, here at......................$ 9.07
Ladies’ suits that you pay $15 to $17.50 for, here at......................$10.57
Ladies’ suits that you pay $25 to $30.00 for, here at....................$19.26

in our prices on men’s suits and those at other stores, an absolute saving on each suit.
Men’s suits, cost $8.25, other’ prices $10.00 to 12.50, here at.............$ 9.07
Men’s suits, cost $11.55, others’ price $15.00, here at...................$12.70

Every suit of newest pattern and latest style. Ask others to show you their invoices
and prove to you that they came anywhere near our prices. They won’t even claim
to match us. then, why not save what you can while you can?
New Panama Hats
here by express this morning and we sell men’s panama hats at the same profits we
do Stetson hats—not over 45c profit on invoice cost of any hat and that’s 55c to
$2.50 cheaper than any other merchant sells panama hats. If you are a man that
had rather buy a hat at same other store and pay $5.00 and $7.50 for it when you can
come here and buy the same qualities at $3.95 and $4.95 you have a perfect right to do
it. We are not after people who have scYittle regard foijtheir money. We are after the
man who is willing to save, the man who is not tied to some stores, the independent
man.

in Denison, who are pleased with
the way he has managed city affairs
while at the head ot the municipal
government and insist that he should
remain in the office be has filled so
acceptably. He has consented to
comply with their urgent solicitation
to become a candidate and has out-
lined a brief platform of principles

Judge W. S. Pearson announce*
that he is a candidate for the office
of commissioner in class No. 2 un-
der the new charter for the city of

ily in favor of the substance ot the

tour commissioners instead of two
.nd with smaller salaries for the
four.
Judge Pearson promises that it he

Indebtedness of the Bepublic.
The census bureau has issued a
bulletin announcing that the per
capita of public indebtedness in the
United States is $36.50, and that
the total indebtedness, including na-
tional, government, state, county,
township, precii ct and school dis-
trict dabts Is $2,789,990,120.
It ia pointed out that lor every
$2.85 of public indebtedness, there
is $100 ot national wealth. In
Great Britain this ratio is $.0.50 in-
stead of $2.85; in France it is
$14.2^, and in Italy it ia $17 38
to every $100 of national wealth.
George French for Commissioner.
Justice French will be a candi-
date tor commissioner under the
commission form of government.
Mr. French has been an honored
citizen of Denison for many years.
He has twice been elected as justice
of the peace, which speaks well for
his popularity. He states that it
elected he will give all of bis time
to the people and the beat interest!
of Denison. Tnat is a good plat-
torm to stand on. Mr. French is
very popular. He ia prominently
identified with the labor dfganiEa-
tions and ia a member ot nearly
every secret society in Denison. He
is in the prime of life. Having lived
here so many years and been so
leng in public life, be would natur-
ally know what is necessary for a
better Denison.

P- H. Tobin.
The Gazetteer is authorized to
announce P. H. Tobin for commis-
sioner at the election April 13. P.
H. Tobin is so well known to our
people that in the language of Bill
Shakespeare, it would be like at-
tempting to paint the lilly to say
any further good of him. Out ot a
population of 17,000 people no more
available candidate could be elect
ed. He is one ot the pillars of com-
mercial Denison. He is the yery
beat type of citizenship. There
never has been a movement for a
better Denison that P. H. Tobin
was not at the front. He is a clear-
beaded conservative man. With
him as coinmitaioner theie is no
danger that the commission form of
government will not prove a satis-
factory experiment. Let every citi-
zen give P. H. Tobin their suffrage.
In every official position that he has
ever held he has reflected honor on
the city and self. Mr. Tobin was
one of the first to cast his lot with
Denison, and he has been her stead-
fast triend for the past 34 year
While hit election ia a foregone con-
clusion, let us make it unanimous.
