A NEW DEAL.

Having purchased my partners
interest in the shoe business | have
decided to remain here and con-
duct the shoe business as Of old,
having concluded that it would be
foolish to give up we'll established
business and a line that | have
been in for the past fifteen years.
l still have quite a stock Of the
Doud & Muir goods which | am
determined to close out at once,
and on broken lots will offer them
at half price. I shall also in the
near future put in a full and COM
plete new stock of fine and medium
priced footwear direct from the
manufacturers which | shall sell at
the lowest living price. 1t will be
my aim to keep nothing but good
honest made goods. Inever have
and never will sell or keep some
of the shoddy made stuff such as
has been and is being offered by
SO many dealers the past year or
two. If you want such truck
don't come to me for it. I will
not handle it. AS l shall sell
goods at the very lowest possible
profit, l shall sell strictly for cash.
therefore hope that will not have
to refuse any one credit.
Thanking the people of the
Twin Cities and vicinity for the
liberal patronage we have received
in the past four years, and hoping
to merit a share Of the same in the
future, l am yours to please,

TWIN CITY PARKS.
An Opportunity Offered by Mr.. j.
ID. Witter to get Them.

The editor of the REPORTER is author
lied by Mr.. J. D. Witter to say, that he
is decidedly in favor of Grand Rapids
and Centralia providing themselves
with suitable sites for public parks and
he is willing to stand half of the expense
in providing the same and keeping them
up. This is most liberal offer and
ought to be accepted promptly. The
subject of Parks has been discussed in
the REPORTER in wears gone by. We
still favor them as places of resort for
the people to gather, in which they can
find pleasure, rest and peace, and
promoters of good health. All cities
provide them and some upon large
scales. Why should the Twin Cities
be exceptions? Let us accept Mr.
Writer'S proposition and provide our
selves with Parks suitable for cities of
this size. The editor is under lasting
obligations to Mr.. Witter for his liber-
atty in this respect and we hope he
may be obliged to keep his promise.
If our citizens allow this opportunity to
60 by unaccepted the time will come
when they will regret it.

be followed. As yet no proposition has

one will be made before another week
