factor In the affairs of the town.
People who think that opportun.
tiles are all gone have only to
look and see success walking
among us; success that came of
pluck and persistence.
In 1882 Mr.. Biethan started
IN business on the present site of
his big store, having at that time
a small room which he rented
of the owner, He devoted his
lime at first to repairing harness
for the freighters, and later began
dealing in harness and campers
supplies. This work developed
in him the latent powers of the
merchant, and following that
inner sight that a mar feels when
he finds his natural a%vocation, he
added to and increased his bust
ness until he was the owner of
the lot and the shack. Then he
erected a two story brick building
and filled it with goods from eel
lar to rooftree, and a few years
later built an addition in length
that covers the full length of the
lots. He owns the building where
the post office is kept and when
vacated he will occupy it with his
undertaking parlors and chapel.
The floor space in the main
building is 2Sx115 feet on each
floor, there being three floors.
He carries a complete line of dry
goods, clothing, shoes, queens
ware, groceries, furniture and
undertaking. Immediately after
his return from California next
month he will have the store re
modelled and greatly enlarge his
stock of shoes and clothing.

Hay.Fed Cattle Letter.

SOUTH OMAHA, FEB. /, 1907.
There has been a fairly liberal
run of cattle here the past week,
but the supply of hay.fed cattle
has been quite light. There have
been quite a few fair kinds Of
light and medium weight hay
feds offered, but on these the
trade has been rather slow and
prices are closing up Is to Csc
lower for the week. What few
good heavy westerns that have
been here have sold about steady
with the close last week. The
beef market has been in good
shape and prices on steers are
closing up 10 to 15c higher than
last Friday.
The supply of hay-fed butcher
stock has also been light, bat the
general COW market has held
steady to a little stronger. We
sold a few Wyoming cows Thurs
day at 80. 70, averaging 100 lbs.
We believe this depression in
feeding stock is only temporary,
and look for a reaction in the
near future.

"Proper clothes for men" is
gaining broader recognition as
a study and a useful art, and
since the advent of Buster Brown
and Tige his dog, the subject has
been studied and honored as it
never was before. The cobwebs
of custom and Indifference have
been brushed aside, and the art
of dressing we'll with no greater
expense than is used in dressing
Shy guess and by thumb" has

Rowles' big display window pre-
SCENTS a fresh object lesson each
week to bring out some idea OF
good taste, comfort and fitness for
the season. Mr.. Rowles has been
in business in Blackfoot for many
years and his success is attributed
by close observers to be due to
his vigilance in always letting the
public know what he has to sell,
being prompt and courteous to
wait on customers, and using good
taste and kindly consideration Gin
fitting a fellow out with what Is
best suited to him when he goes
in to get clothes and knows that

FRED MURPHEY OF THE GEM

Mr.. Murphey was formerly a
railroad man and, like many of
his brothers, suffered from the
effects of the "'blacklist" after
the big strike of 1894. After
working for others for some years
he came to Blackfoot in April,
1905, and purchased "The Gem"
which was established back in the
pioneer days by Pars Jones king
and was at the time presided over
by William Vanderwood. Mr..
Murphey has shown himself mas
ter of the business. He is con-
scientlous in his dealings. Hand
ling only the best of goods in his
line and conducting a quiet and
gentlemanly place. His business
methods have builded a splendid
patronage of the best class and he
has materially increased his trade
by the introduction of a fine lunch
buffet, where hot tamales, chill,
etc., are served in an appreciative
manner. The interior of The Gem
is decorated with many trophies
of the chase and their fame has
spread thruout the Intermountain
region. Mr.. Murphey is an
Eagle and prominent in the order.
He is also wide awake to any,
thing that will benefit the town of
his adoption.

GEO. H. HoLBRooK, GROCER

NS ~
MIR. Holbrook started in his
present location in the grocery
business about nine year ago, after
being employed behind the counter
for a number of years, principally
with D.. H. Biethan. His. store
is one of the most widely known
in this section, and enjoys a large
and well-satistied patronage. His
business has rapidly increased
since its inception; his stock is
always fresh and inviting and the
store kept in the pink of c%leanli-
ness. Mr.. Holbrook is public
spirited, a member of the School
Board and alive to anything that
will benefit the town. In fact,
he's a natural booster.

VIM. II. SCOTT, DRUGS

The Pioneer Drug Store was
established way back in the early
days of Biackfoot, by DR.. W. FL.
Bahle. 1t was for many years the
only dispenser of drugs to the
widely scattered community. DIR.
Bahle, long since deceased, was
succeeded by Hull & Greene and
afterwards the firm became Hull
Il Woodruff. In 1900. the bust
ness was taken by VIM. Scott &
Co. and still continues in pros
perlty under the management of
Mr.. Scott. The stock carried by
the Pioneer is one of the largest
in the state, indeed sufficient, it
would seem, to carry on an ex-
tensive wholesale business or
stock a number of branches in
outlying towns. However, the
able management sees to it that
this large stock is constantly
turned and patrons are always
sure of the best and freshest drugs
on the market. The large patron
age enjoyed by the Pioneer and
the business head of Mr.. Scott
make this condition possible.
The store handles a complete line
of papers and periodicals and is a
rendezvous for the man of affairs
local, state and national. The
location, opposite the depot, is
most desirable and accounts in
part for the popularity which the
place enjoys.

GROVE CITY MEAT MARKET.

Albert Miller came to Black
foot twelve years ago. He home
steaded across the river, but after
two years of ranch life moved
into town and went to work as a
butcher for McTucker, and con-
tinued in his employ for nearly
eight years, then becoming an
owner in the business. In March,
1904, Mr.. Miller became associ-
ated with Geo. Stone, of Ogden,
in the present Grove City Market,
and in the following July they
extended the partnership to in
clude Frank Taylor, making the
we'll known firm of Miller, Stone
& Taylor. Mr.. Taylor is an old
resident here, having come from
"Nof. Carline'' t~hirty-fve years
ago and settled in Custer county.
The Grove City has prospered
under the triple management.
The boys r congeniaI fellows;
well-known and we'll. thought of,
and these qualities, taken in con-
nection with good, square deal
ing, have won for them a bust
ness reputation that is unim.
peachable and a patronage that
is steady and everincreaslng as
the population grows. They fol-
fow the plan that "there is
nothing too good for our Gus
TONER'S and the Oldest inhabitant
would be dumb with establishment
at the volume of business the firm
t%ransacts. They ship many cars
of stock during a year and the
Wholesale part OF the business is
quite extensive.

Back in 1882 H. A. Mond-

Jewelry business In this city and
continued to the time of his death
by suicide, in April, 1905. Geo.
A.. Robethan was administrator Of

Mr.. Christ landed in Blackfoot
and purchased the stock and fix
lures. Mr.. Christ was a young
Pennsylvania and had come to
the West six years before to
grow up with the country" He
found his opportunity here and
has well improved it. The bust
ness has prospered under his guild
ance and his stock of goods is
complete and up to.the- minute.

D w. STAMFORD & CO., BANKERS.

ID w. SFANDROD x CO,
The development of the bank
ing business in America has Put
more BURGERS out of business than
all the night locks and police
force ever called into action. 1t
has also done more to expand the
national currency and SNAKE one
dollar do the work of twoo than
anything else, and people are
learning more each year of the
advantages of depositing their
money in bank and issuing checks
against it. An old prejudice,
based on the statement that the
banking business, under careful
management, was very profitable,
has kept many people from doing
business with a bank, thinking
the banks profit might be their
loss, but greater enlightenment
teaches them that in this joining
of forces lies the secret of expan-
sion of the currency, and making
one dollar do the work of two.
They learn too, that the advan-
tages are mutual; that all banks
are safer than a private vault, not
to mention the insecurity of a
pocket that is never locked.
BURGERS do not disturb the man
with a bank account, and this
gives him personal security equal
to that of the man who never has
a cent in the bank or out of it.
The firm of d. W. Standrod Il
Go. was established in 1899, and
has built up an immense business,
with associate banks at Malad,
Pocatello, Mackay and Albion,
Idaho. They have tided hun
dreds of men ovei tight places,
and when they investigate d case
and say "We will take care of
you,' it means that the fellow
will escape going on the rocks it
strong backing will save him.
