The Successor
Ito the
Oregon Trading Co.

Has made such deep cuts
in the prices of goods
that they don't need to
make auction now to raise
money. The people have
found it out from the
bargains they are getting
at private sale. We are
not yet out Of the woods.
We must raise $4,000 by
the 10Th of December, and
to continue the rush so
that the amount can cas-
lily be raised we will sell
from 80 to so per cent be-
low actual value until the
amount is raised.
