Besides the main establishment
in Holbrook, branch stores are
maintained in St. Johns, Spring
erville, Eagar and Snowflake.
During the 40 years of its exis-
tence it has transacted an enor-
nous volume of business, main
tanning a high standard of integ-
rity and fair treatment.
Among the stockholders of
this institution are some of the
wealthiest and most influential
citizens of the community. Such
men as John R. Hulet, president
of the board of directors; John
A. Freeman, county supervisor;
w. E. Stratton, Jos. w. Smith,
S. F. Smith, Joseph Udall. Joy
Patterson and w. F. Lesueur
add the stamp of reliability to
any enterprise with which they
are associated and their connec-

its continued success and growth"

w. ]. Bryan is an artist. This
is not a recent discovery (on our
part). Bryan discovered himself
away back in '96, or before. He
was a poor local attorney with a
growing gift for CAB. After his
free silver coinage oratorical
flights he began to coin his elo-
quence into coin. He ran for
president few times, meeting
defeat, but always able to turn
defeat into more coin. The habit
once formed, he has kept it up.
When he was relieved of his
Secretary of State job, aposition
next to the President, he immedi-
ately began coming more coin by
scouting the country over and
delivering Peace at Any Price"
speeches. He has been so
wonderfully successful with his
failures and coined so much coin
that his enthusiasm got the bet
ter of him the other day and he
actually contributed the whole
sum of 500 (dollars) towards the
Universal Peace Fund! This
really sounds like Peace at
Any Price!"
