A state bank can render to the

somewhat restricted powers granted
to the latter by the federal govern

There's nothing of more import

Proctor, Mimi. ~.

Z This firm, like many others men
toned in this issue, in a similar line
of business, has held the trade of the
people, particularly working people.
since its very beginning. This was
done by giving the people a varied
choice in the line they wanted, and
in extending every courtesy and ac-
commodation that proper business
methods would permit. This policy
has been maintained without inter-
ruption. This firm is well known to
all the building trades, to all classes
of citizens and the public generally
in all walks of life. The stock of
hardware, stoves, and the line usual
~ carried by such house is here
displayed in endless variety The
prices attached to these articles are
no more than catalogue prices; the
goods are before you, and If they are
not right you don't have to. take
them. Think over the fact that when
you patronize Sickels and Sherwin
you are doing business with a strictly
Proctor institution.
We do not wish to merely impress
upon the minds of organized :. labor
the esteemed position in which this
concern is held, but wish to instruct
them to give this creditable enter
prise their hearty support and pa
tronage. The proprietors are pro-
gressive and enterprising citizens and
have always been found upon the
right side of all questions pertaining
to labor and the cause of labor, and
we take great pleasure in giving
them a prominent position among the
friends Of labor. The purchasing of
reliable medium priced goods is a
very important question and there is
no store in our city which offers bet
ter goods for the same money. than
does this popular establishment
