been having. Much more so, in
fact, than our entry into the

by other dealers. 1t was a ''cold

menced to sell clothing at greatly
reduced prices, and they have
already fonnd that it is a very

don't get left, and the reason is
that we always give you value

elderly man of perhaps sixty, who CANT

firm built five branch lines OF railroad
feeders for the Northern Pacific, aggre-
eating about $50 miles Of line, and next
April will begin the construction OF q
railroad from Goble. where the North
ern Pacific crosses the Columbia to
Astoria. Mr. Bonner spends his winters
in New York city and the summer sea-
son in Missouia, where he has a very
fine home. He said that in case his
people became the owner of the o p,
that all its operations would be looked
after by Mr. Hammond, whom he declar-
ed to be much more active man, re-
marking in conclusion, "If Mr. Ham
mond comes down here and takes hold
OF the road he will make things hum.n
