Chas. Bull, Plumber, Steam Fitting

Mr.. Bull is one of the best plumbers
in the state, and only good materials,
skilled workmanship, and the fairest
dealing may be looked for in any work
he undertakes. The contracts he has
successfully carried through show more
than words of ours could do his standing
in the line. Mr.. Bull is recognized as an
expert in the trade and by the public
generally, and there is no more honest
man in our city-where he has lived for
seventeen years. Plumbing and heat
ing are on scientific basis these days,
and Mr.. Bull we'll realizes the fact, there
fore he is we'll up On all the details of
his calling. No faulty job was ever done
by him, and he never rendered an unfair
bill in his life. Always conscientious
and progressive, Mr.. Bull should be con-
graduated on the business he is building
up, and he is well worthy of patronage.

The Palace Livery Stable, John
Bach, Proprietor

Mr.. Bach is well known in this part of
the state, and his business is in -four
ishing condition. He knows the livery
business like book, and all his patrons
receive full value and courteous treat
ment when dealing with him. Once you

certain you will become a steady Gus
toner. He keeps good horses, all rigs
are 0. X, and drivers accommodating
and to be relied on. The establishment
is open day and night, and no man was
ever overcharged here. The livery is al
together one of the most successful in
Eastern Washington. Mr.. Bach is a
man of integrity, full of enterprise and

First National Bank
Capital, 10000

The many friends of and depositors in
this sound and we'll managed bank would
certainly expect that we would accord it
high praise in mentioning our banking
facilities, as its record has been excellent
and its business is increasing rapidly.
Since the day it first opened its doors, it
has moved steadily along the path OF
safe, conservative, progress, and only the
most prudent kind of banking is tran
sactsd. 1t keeps pace with the city's
growth and development, and sagacity
energy, and the most honorable prin-
ciples characterize the direction of its af-
fairs. 1t enjoys we would emphatically
state the most complete confidence of
every member of the community. I'm
failing courtesy and politeness are ex-
tended to all, and no requisite OF a solid
up-to date, financial institution is want
ing. Banking in all it's branches is DONE
collections made promptly, their cores
pondents are leading banks in the large
cities, and in short Pullman has good
reason to be satisfied with it's banking
facilities. The bank is equipped with
the best burglar and fire-proof vaults,
and it is up-to-date throughout. Mr..
Levi Ankeny, Washington's senator
elect, is well-known to all as one of the
pillars, we might say, of the Northwest,
a millionaire whose hold on all classes
of the community has always been
strong. Mr.. Gay Lombard, the vice
president, is also a we'll known figure,
while the active management of the bank
is in charge of J. w. Stearns, the cashier,
whose financial ability, integrity and
public spirit needs no mention here.
Mr.. S. G. Sargent, the assistant cashier,
fills his post most acceptably. The cap
ital is $50, 900, and the bank was never
in a more hourishing condition. No
worthy movement for the advancement
of the city ever appeals to this institu-
ton in vain.

F. D. Richardson, Grocery
Successor to Henry & SOM

We wish to give due credit to our pro-
gressive and up-to-date firms, and Mr.
Richardson who has lately re-entered
the mercantile field here, as successor
to Henry & Son, in the grocery business,
commands kindly mention from us. 1t
is safe to say that no man here has bet
ter knowledge of this line than he, and
he aims to keep stock of groceries that
would please the most fastidious. Mr..
Richardson has recently added new lines
and he is prepared to give our people
exactly what they want. He believes
in small profits, and as he has had many
years experience in this branch of trade,
success can be predicted for him. His
place has an air of business and prosper
ity about it, and Mr.. Richardson is al
ways on the alert, tending to customers
himself and seeing that everything runs
smoothly. Personality is big factor in
success, and especially so in the retail
business, and Mr.. Richardson is CHEEKY,
energetic, accommodating gentleman,
who is making his presence felt in our
community. We observe with pleasure
that he is coming to the front fast.

portant home enterprises, and it meets

cry is of the latest and best. Every

Springston Lumber Co., ]. W.
Dickey, Manager

No survey of our commercial interests
would be adequate without word of
praise for this lumber firm, as 1t is a
flourishing concern, and it adds largely
to the mercantile Importance of our city.
And it is hardly necessary to say that
their goods are sold as low as the low
est. The wants of mechanics, contrac-
tors, farmers, etc., are promptly and
courteously met, all receiving the utmost
consideration that sound business prin-
ciples will permit. Here can be had a
fine stock of dry flooring, ceiling, rustic,
and finish of all kinds, also dimension
lumber, including lath, doors, windows,
mouldings, tar paper, fence posts, and
building material; likewise Wyoming
coal in which they do large business.
They have taken some very large con-
tracts, always giving complete satisfac-
ton, both as to quality and price. The
company has branches at Oakesdale and
other towns, the mills being located at
Springston, Idaho, and all are in first
class shape. Mr.. Dickey, the manager
here, is broad, far-seeing, honorable
business man, who has shown himself
we'll fitted for his post.

The Bowling Alley, L. H. Porte
man, Manager

Pleasure is as necessary as labor, for
we all know that all work and no play
makes Jack a dull boy. Therefore those
who cater to the lighter side of life play
an important part in the community,
and well conducted amusement resort
is feature of a town we'll worth men
tioning. This bowling alley is managed
on just the right lines, and it is doing a
large business, and deservedly so. 1t is
operated as a first-class alley, being we'll
built, according to the latest models,
and it is well patronized. Bowling being
good, healthy exercise, it is first rate
game, far better than any tonic doctor
could give, and the sport is increasing
in popularity. The alley caters to our
people very successfully, and match
games are played here frequently. Mr..
Purteman, the manager, was formerly
connected with bowling alley in Mos
COW, and has recently assumed control
here. He is an energetic, pleasant gen.
tleman, who is making a good impress
sion here, and no doubt the high stand
ard of the establishment will be mann
tanned under his direction. 1t is owned
by Mr.. Wade Siler, cashier of the Mos
COW State Bank, who is well and favor
ably known in this section.

The Star Livery, Greenaway &
Ha1terman, Props.

In drawing attention to the various
enterprises of our city, we must not for
get Messrs.' Greenaway & Halterman,
who conduct one of the best liveries in
this part of the state. They secure a
very liberal custom, and those who deal
with them receive polite, fair treatment,
and the best of accommodation. Their
place is well equipped in every way, and
stock is handled just right. Competition
is keen in this line, but Messrs. Greena-
way & Halterman are right on top,
and their hold on patronage
is first rate. They employ none but
competent men, and the establishment
is run in manner which reflects the
greatest credit on them. Rigs are kept
clean, drivers are obliging and skilltul,
and in short it is livery which cannot

An up-to-date we'll managed hardware
store is great advantage to a town, and
the above establishment is one that fills
the bill in every respect. 1t offers faeil-
tiles for the purchase OF shelf and heavy
hardware which are not excelled any,
where-a broad statement, but perfectly
correct. No essential of high class
hardware store is wanting, and it is un-
necessary to say that only standard
goods IRE handled, and nothing finds
place in this store that cannot be fully
guaranteed. The fairest of methods pre-
vail at all times, and those who deal
there may be sure they will be treated
In a perfectly honorable manner. The

adapted for the purpose, and no store in
Pullman gives better value or is in a
more hourishing condition. They are

The Palace Hotel, Theo. T. Davis,
Proprietor

A leading feature of town is hotel,
for nothing advertises co immunity as
effectively as well managed and up-to-
date hostelry. About the first question
stranger asks on reaching place is:
Have they good house here?" Answer
ing this query on behalf of Pullman, we
wish to say that the Palace fulills every
requirement of frst-class hotel Its
location is unexcelled, a meal is set that
would suit the most fastidious, and spot
less cleanliness prevails throughout. The
service is all that could be desired and
the "boys on the road" know that when
they strike Pullman they will be looked
after in just the right way. veranda
on the second floor, running completely
round, adds to the comfort and attrac-
tiveness of the hotel, and there are large
and well lit sample rooms; also electric
lights throughout. A comfortable bus
meets all trains, and Mr.. Davis secures
practically all the desirable trade here,
including, of course, the bulk OF the trav-
cling men. The writer has stayed at the
Palace hotel almost three weeks, and
though he has lived in hotels several
years, he was never better treated. "Ne-
ro," the dog, we would add, is one of the
best advertised hotel dogs in the coun-
try. Mr.. Davis owns the property, and
he leaves nothing undone to please his
guests. He is a gentleman of tact, con-
sideration and courtesy, we'll adapted
for this line, and commanding the respect
and good will of townspeople as well as
the travelling public.

E. S. Bargan & Son, General Mer-
chandfse

Strictly on its merits we give this es-
adjustment the post of honor in these
pages, for it is store which will well
compare with any other in a town this
size in the western country. The stock
of General Merchandise is selected with
the greatest care, and prices are as low
as can be had in Spokane or the large
cities. Bargains OF the right kind, and
genuine ones, can always be had here,
and it has long been one of our favorite
trading points. 1t is very creditable to
our people that they support so literally
such large and up-to-date establish
ment. Nothing is placed on sale here
that will not stand the most rigid tests,
and prices are always as low as good
goods can be honestly sold for. 1t is one
of our leading commercial emporiums,
and it is pleasure indeed to do bust
ness with Messrs. Burgan & Son, as
courtesy, fair dealing, and liberalty pre-
vail every day in the year. These gen
tlemen demand the good will and esteem
OF our people, and their reputation is of
the very best. They are to be congratu-
lated on their success.
