GROW MUST PAY HIS BILLS

GROW MUST PAY HIS BILLS
The Grow Clothing Co., Of Mi
not, starts a money raising sale
this week. Mr.. Grow informs
the Independent that it is not
his habit TO slaughter the prices
on seasonable goods, but he is
compelled to do so in order to
raise money to pay past due
accounts. The recent tinan-
cial condition has cramped
many a business man, and while
Mr.. Grow will make not one cent
from the sale of his stock, and in
many cases, he is selling at much
less than the wholesale price,
the cash must be realized and it's
a splendid time for the public to
buy. The sale lasts fifteen days.
Grows sales are always bona
fde.

amalgamation to get out OF the con

a sting in every line for the rebellious
element, and the reading Of the paper
brought hundred delegates to their
feet with protests The tumult lasted
for FIVE minutes. Finally, by vote OF
1877 to 1876 all reference to the Sc
ceders getting out of the convention
was stricken out. Adjournment was
taken In general turmoil.
