A. Mohisr EnIarsisE his BusIness.
Removal 20 New. Quarters

A. Mohler, long known here as one OF
our best and most enterprising boot and
shoe makers, has moved HIS establishment
to 1876 Comm ercIal street, 70 the room
lately occupied by Benefits restaurant,
between the old grocery store Of q. w.
Frederick and DIR. Lawrenee's ONCE.
Besides his usual custom business he
will engage in manufacturing w0men's,
miSses' and childrsn's shoes, which he
will sell ct snch low prices az to bring
them In competition with the work Of
eastern manufactures.
It does not seem necessary for rs to say
that Mr.. MOhIer is ~ good = mechanic Is
can be found anywhere. His work here
for years Is his best recommendation. He
was formerly engaged In the manufactur-
ing business largely In New York. His
cl ose attention. 10 business has brought
him = large degree Of prosperity, and II
properly encouraged by the public he will
build up = manufacturing interest here
that will be OF great benefit TO the com.
munity. He proposes to fit up in the besl
| style to accommodate the public and his
business.
He desires the public TO come and keC
his manufactured goods, as he Is moi
afraid TO compare them with Eastern
made goods, either as to prices or quality
Of the work and materials used. Their
has been much talk here Of home manu-
factories, and now we trust Mr.. n. viii
receive that encouragement which viii
make his shoe mandatory . large an,
prosperous one. Nothing will pay on
people better than to build up an,
strengthen home men. He expects soOl
to put several hands atwork, and will in
crease his force and facilities as the bust
ness demands. We wish him entire sue
cess in this important undertaking.
