camille trade, and one that has loomed
up considerably Of late years. Hillsboro
has had more opposition in this line
than in any other department Of trade.

efforts of dealers in other cities and
towns, the dry goods merchants of this
city have, by their determined stand
and liberal dealing, demonstrated that
Hillsboro is most desirable trading
place for articles in the dry goods line,
and offers inducements and advantages
to the people which make it preferred
over all competing points. Among the
houses engaged in the dry goods busi-
ness, none stand higher than the honored
house under confederation, and none
have done more during its existance by
q just and judicious administration of its
affairs to bring about the prosperity of
the city.
Ever since its establishment this house
has held prominent place in the trade
OF this section Of the country. From it's
very inception the business began to in
crease, and has steadily grown to it's
