such a. their trade demands, not being
obliged to take an entire miscellaneous
lot in order to get what their patroni
desire. These facts should be consider.

tain that Messrs. Hsllowell 4 Clark. can
offer excellent inducements to all Gus.
toners.
Both Mr.. Hallowell and Mr.. CLARK
are young men and are we'll qualified
for the management OF the house under
their control. The business, owing to
the ability with which the affairs of the
house have been managed, has been
successful from the start. Their trade
extends all over this and the adjacen,
counties, and is very large indeed. They
handle over q million feet OF pine lum.

portion.
Prudent enterprise, honest determine.
ton and an honorable policy always in.
sures success, and these have been char.
acteristic of these gentlemen. Through
the time that this establishment has
been in existence, the changes and fuc
tations of business incident to it's career
it has ever maintained with Frightening
reputati6ni that high standard of mer
camille honor and elevated business en-.
terprise with which it was founded.
And we can say without fear Of contra.
diction that there is not in this entire
section Of the country more solidly es.
tablished and more honorably conducted
establishment than that of Hallowell
& Clark.

The growth and development of ali
cities is largely due to the complete de.
velopment Of its resources. Hillsboro
as center for manufacturing and gen.
eral merchandising must indisputably
rank as q city approaching one of the
foremost places Of her size in the State
when the entire volume of her business
and the amount of capital invested 70,
the prosecution of her various industries
is considered. We have here many con
Germs which are thoroughly established
in the business in which they are en-
gagged, whose owners have grown gray
in the pursuit of their favorite calling
Then we have others who have only
been founded short time-a few year,
but who have demonstrated that they
have come to stay; who have conclu.
sively shown that the business in which
they are engaged is successful one, and
who bid fair to outstrip some of theil
older neighbors in the race for the pin
nacle Of success and fame. Among the
latter class must be mentioned the es
tablishment of Messrs. H.W. Wolfe & Co
This ie one Of our best industries -one
which has done much toward spreading
abroad the name OF Hillshoro, and one
to which our people point with com.
mendsble pride. This house enjoys q
reputation of which the proprietors have
a right to be proud. It is an establish.
ment deserving of more than a passing
notice in work devoted to the indus.
trial and commercial pursuits Of our city
The business Of this establishment il
conducted upon the highest principles
OF honor, with great energy and ability,
and to these facts, together with the
courteous and business-like manners oi
the resident and managing member ol
the firm, Mr.. J. Y. Dean, Is due the en-
inent success the house has achieved
and the prominent position it occupies
in the commercial affairs Of Hillsboro.
The nucleus for the business under
consideration was laid in the year 1884
by Mr.. Dean. When this gentleman
began business his total capital was $l5t
and one horse and wagon. He had 9
hard row to hoe at the commencement
and had many obstacles to overcome
He is of very energetic disposition
and was not prepared to acknowledge
the word "fail." He persevered, and
success has crowned his efforts. And
the little business AZ established in 1881
has now grown and increased until al
the present the transactions of the house
amount to over 500, 900 per annum. H

in 1885, when the style Of the firm wa.
