trips each week to all North Bay town
and Hartstein Island, and bring thos,
residents to Olympia free of charge
The object is to get them to do their
trading there. Much of this trade
now goes to Tacoma but still consid
cradle amount comes to Shelton, and i
our merchants will get up some
scheme to make trading more conven
lent it is likely that Shelton can secure
the bulk of this trade within the coun.
ty. We have several big general mer.
chandise stores where goods are sold
as cheap as they are anywhere and in
drugs, dry goods, clothing, holiday
goods or any other line of trade, there
are splendid big stocks from which to
buy at very low prices. The county
trade should be retained where it will
benefit us all. We suggest that a
floating dock be built at the point and
some inducements offered in the way
of free or cheap transportation from
the points mentioned. A perusa1 of
the JOURNALS advertising will con-
vince that Shelton is amply able to
supply the county people at very low
prices.
See Asmus' big announcement. He
intends closing out his stock of gener-
al merchandise and also selling his
property interests in Shelton. If you
want anything prices will be no OBJ
ject.
