RAILROAD
NEWS.

We have been reliably in
formed that the railroad will
reach Enterprise not later
than December of the present
year.
With the advent of the
road the necessity of carrying
a large surplus in certain
lines of merchandise will
have been removed.
In anticipation of this we
have inaugurated a clearance
sale and have reduced prices
on every article in the store,
many of which we are selling
below actual cost.
In making this substantial
cut in prices we have a double
purpose in view, viz;
1st-a reduction of a sur
plus in certain lines.
2nd--to set money to meet
our maturing obligations
which aie usually large at
this time of year with mer-
chants doing a credit bust
ness.
We will therefore continue
to sell
