Throughout This Territory.

In this bustling. progressive, almost
speculative age of activity IN all lines
of commercial life there is always
much of interest to be found in a
study of the modern methods of mer-
chandising The big commercial cent
ers are ever awake to take advantage
OF the newest and latest ideas advanc-
cd by the leaders and promoters in
severy branch of business life. and in
turn the ambitious aspirant for public
patronage in the smaller communities
is wont to follow their leadership in
the quest for trade.
Happily DEBORAH has citizen and
business man who has for many years
been rightly classed among the lead.

those who are outlining and planning
for the clothing trade of a nation. 1t

sIGURD REQUE.

Mr.. Sigurd Rogue, candidate for the
office of County uperintendent, was
born in DEBORAH. Feb. &c, 1888. He
obtained his early education partly in
the public schools in DEBORAH. and
partly in denominational school.
In 1898, when Sigurd was ten years
of age, he accompanied his parents to
Rotterdam, Holland, whittier his faith
er, Prof. l.. 5. Rogue. went to assume
the duties of the United States Con-
sulship to which he had recently been
appointed. During the four years that
Sigurd was in Rotterdam, he enjoyed
the best educational advantages that
the city afforded. For two years he
attended Esmeyer's School, at that
time regarded as the best school for
boys in Rotterdam, while the remain
ing two years were devoted to study
under private instructors. When Sig
urd returned with his parents to De.
corah, he spoke fuently both Dutch
and French, in addition to English
and Norwegian, which he had. of
course, acquired before going abroad.
In the fall of 1897 he entered Luther

er College. he taught one year in

At present Mr.. Rogue has temporary
charge of the instruction in French in
the senior class at the college on ac-
count of the illness of his father, who
about two weeks ago was stricken W it'll

toners. Twice each year during all
this time he has been at New York,
from whence comes the styles. the
cloths and quality of American cloth
ing. Along with the big merchants
of the country he has selected his
cloths from the newest productions of
the manufacturer and ordered them
made into suits and oyercoats accord
ing to the demands of the trade.
And so an inspection of his place of
business at least twice "a year after the
new stock has arrived is an education
80 anyone desiring TO keep abreast of
the times The other day we casually
dropped in and were indeed surprised
to see every table, shelf and rack load
y cd to it's utmost capacity. While we
were there Mr.. James M. Lennon of
Frankville township came in to make
q purchase, and while talking said
that he purchased the first suit sold by
Mr.. Bear thirty-three years ago. when
he opened the lite store on the corner
where his big building now is. There
were also persons there from Lime
Springs and Postville, 20 miles or
more away. and it has come that peo-
pie many miles away have learned
thatDecorah is place to buy clothing
such as cannot be found outside the
large cities.
A visit mp stairs revealed the fur de-
partment a store in itself, containing
400 garments of plush, fur and fur
lined coats, several thousand dollars
worth of che markets finest produce
tions. packed in as closely as possible.
Down stairs are hundreds more of
cloth overcoats on similar racks, suits
for men and boys. shoes and rubber
goods. tables and shelves loaded with
coats and pants, and in the east room
gents furnishing goods. caps, gloves.
etc. in great profusion, while in the
rear are separate store looms filed
with trunks, valises and suit cases,
and another with sheep-lined. cordn-
roy coats, etc.
Throughout the entire establishment
each department is complete with a
line of goods for quantity and quality
never before seen in DEBORAH. 1t leads
one to wonder what will be done with
such an immense stock of goods. but
Mr.. Bear has a way all his own; he
has learned how to anticipate the peo-
pies wants. and buys accordingly
and after the goods are here offers
them at a figure that will sell them,
believing that the best business policy
is to sell a large amount at small
profits. Consequently he has suited
his stock to the demands of the trade,
constantly getting into better quail
ties. A new line of suits of the best
quality and style has been added this
fall. with special cases to contain
them.

something about what we have writ

will be pleased to show you through
