he First Displays, of Advance Spring Goods,
“In time of peace, prepare for war,” is a wise old saying. So, we urge you to begin your preparations for Spring now.
The first touch of this always welcome season is appearing in many departments of this store, the displays of advance
Spring styles suggesting the nearness of the glad season when buds will burst into leaves and blossoms.
The New Gray Dress Goods

For shirt waists, skirts and street costumes, Gray Worsteds will be leading favorites for early Spring wear.
We are now showing an excellent assortment at these most irresistible prices : ,
43 Inch Gray Mixed Panama, several shades from which to
choose, at 85?
56 Inch Gray Mixed Panama, a splendid wearing fabric,
worth *1.25, at . $1.00

White and Colored Linens.
Will be unusually popular this year for shirt waists and
shirt waist suits. In fact, this will be a linen season. This
is another of Dame Fashion’s decrees that seems to have been
largely inspired by good common sense, for surely no more suitable
material for Spring and Summer wear could be selected. See win-'
dow display for valuable suggestions.

Mr. Gunnison Announces.
The announcement of Mr. S. W.
Gunnison for re-clectlon to tho office
of Tux Receiver of Dougherty county
appears elsewhere In this evonlng’s
Herald.
There Is no talk of opposition to
Mr. Gunnison. He has made a zeal

and his personal popularity Is n bul
wark against whioh probably no one
will care to run his head.
POLITICAL SITUATION
HAS BEEN SIMPLIFIED
By Change In Forrii''bf Mr. Hall’s An
nouncement for Clerk.
The formal announcement of Mr. R.
P. Hall, which has been appearing In
The Herald for several days, Is
changed from "for Clerk Superior
Court and ex-offlelo Treasurer” to
tho simpler form of "for Clerk.”
This tends to greatly simplify the
situation with reference to the race
for Clork and Treasurer, subjeot to
the Democratic primary.
Mr. Hall originally announced for
the two offices, which wei-e consoli
dated a number of years ago by act of
the legislature. The race for Treas
urer is being made by three other can
didates, Messrs. P. H. Jones, H. A.
Tarvor and P. E. Tucker, on the as
sumption that the act consolidating
the offices Is unconstitutional, and
that If a treasurer is elected the Su
preme Court will so declare.
Mr. Hall, as matters now stand,
and should he be elected Clerk, will
remnln ex-officio Treasurer of the
county should the Supreme Court de-. not hear the familiar shriek of the big
Clare -the act referred to constitution- whistle at the waterworks station,
al. Should a contrary decision be 1 p 0 r the big whistle didn’t shriek.
