THE CONSOLIDATED
ELEVATOR COMPANY
Enterprising and Reliable Con-
Germ Composed of Progressive
and Up-to-Date Men.

The Importance of high class, sub
stantial and reputable financial insti-
tutions in city is not as widely rec
ognized as it should be. They are
most intimately connected with the
advancement and prosperity Of the
community and aid its development
and foster legitimate enterprises in
every way.
Our review of the substantial and
progressive concerns of this city, we
feel. would be lamentably incomplete
did we not make deserving mention Of
the Consolidated Elevator company,
located at 401 Board Of Trade.
This company has grown rapidly:
since it's organization and now stands
as a monument to the everlasting in
tegrity and sterling ability Of it's
management. They handle millions
of bushels of grain annually and
every order filled with promptness.
and dispatch. And buyers are always
pleased with the honest and straight
forward principle with which this
company conducts it's business.
The officers Of this reliable COM
pany are: George Spencer, president;
G.. H. Spencer, vice president and
secretary; H. A. Starkey, vice presi-
dent and superintendent; w. H. Will
son, assistant secretary. J..
These gentlemen bear most envi-
able regulations for honesty and in,
tegrity in the business trade. circles Of
this city, ana their. names rank fore
most among our most prominent and
public spirited citizens. =
The millers and merchants of the
city of Duluth have good reason to
give this company an even greater
success. A company of this kind adds
materially to success and prosperity
and happiness of our citizens. We
have good reason to consider the Con-
solidated Elevator company a strong
and substantial friend of the wage
earners and we are pleased to place
the name of the concern foremost
among the leading institutions Of our
great and growing city.
