On Saturday evening last the c. y. Nelson
Lumber company's store shut its doors ali the
goods having either been sold or shipped to the
Company's store at Cloquet. Many think that
this shows a bad state Of business here. but Il
does nothing Of the kind, the company believing
that in having this store here, they had Just ono
establishment too many on their hands. As
proof of this, at their store at Cloquet they arc
TO keep only groceries and provisions, with the
heavier articles required for their men and
shanty supplies, and finer dry goods hats, caps
etc, they will not keep, as they think they do
not legitlmately belong to them. We think the
company has done Il wise thing In shifting the
store here as IL IL one step towards the consoli-
dalton OF the business, yet at the same time we
are sorry TO lose the gentlemanly employees with
whom we have been for some time assoc,ating
Mr.. Harris has obtained a first class position In
