J. W. MeANUUTY REAL ESTATE.
No form of Investment has become more
Important mul popular with the conserva
tive public than judiciously selected renl
estate, for not only Is a permanent source
Of Income Insured, but also a reasonable
certainty of Increase of value. The gen
tleman above mentioned carries on a
general real estate business, collecting
rents, buying, selling and exchanging
property, and has shown himself to be
one of the most able, progressive busi
ness men. Ilo has been In this business
for the past few months, although well
known In our city having been Justice of
the Peace for two years, which Is a good
proof of his popularity and worth as a
citizen. The care and promptness with
which ho has executed all business In
trusted to him and the manner In which
the Interest of patrons are handled and
taken enre of. have naturally secured for
him an extensive clientage. Mr. MeAn
ulty Is located In the central part of our
city and any one wishing to buy or sell
property will find It profitable to give him
a call.
THE ROYAL RESTAURANT.
In every city there Is a decided need
of good eating places, where a good meal
can be procured at a nominal sum, and
the citizens of Oregon City may rest as
sured that they are as well taken care of
In this line of business as are the people
of any other city her size in the West.
Among those who have had great success
In this line of work we wish to make
special mention of Mr. L. O. Moore, who
Is manager of the above house, which has
been In operation In our city for the
past two years, and has come to be
known as the finest house In our com
munity. Meals are served In the very
best style at all hours, and the attend
ants are always attentive and courteous
to the wants of their guests. The cuisine
Is of the very best and the cooking is un
der the supervision of an experienced
chef. The very best that Is to be pro
cured In the market is to be found on the
tables of this justly popular house, which
Is opposite the Electric Hotel on Main
street. A lunch counter Is provided for
those who are In a great hurry and the
same care and attention Is devoted to It
as applies to the tables. Mr. Moore Is
open day and night, and is well known In
our city being accounted one of our most
successful business men.
THE HUB SALOON.
There Is fully as much experience nec
essary to conduct a first-class saloon as
there is In any other calling, and it is
noticeable that the most successful saloon-keepers
are those who carry the best
goods and conduct their establishments
In the most orderly manner. A gentle
men who Is making a marked success
In this line Is Mr. Frank Nehren. Mr.
Nehren has been In the business for the
past five years and he has made it a
rule at all times to handle only pure una
dulterated goods, and insists, wherever
It is possible, that everything that comes
into his establishment must be of the
very highest grade. He carries the best
domestic and Imported wines, and liqu
ors, and cigars of the choicest brands.
The famous Castle whisky is to be had
here in Its most perfect condition as
well as the Chesterfield, and that excel
lent brand, the "Hub" cigar is carried
here. The best bottled beers are in stock
and the leading eastern and domestic
beers on draught and are served in most
excellent condition. One can enter here
knowing that the very best goods will
be dispensed and that everything Is look
ed after with the utmost care to ensure
first-class service.
POPE & CO.
It has been generally known for a good
many years that Oregon City's reputation
for superior establishments and first
class facilities are away ahead of other
cities of much greater pretensions. Con
tributing to this state of things is the
enterprising house of Pope & Company.
This is one of the oldest and most re
liable firms In our city. They have been
established in their present line from the
very beginning which dates back to the
very early history of the city. Here we
have a large and well appointed place of
business and the firm deals in everything
under the general head of hardware,
stoves and ranges, tinware, 'pumps, Iron
pipe, agricultural machinery'. Iron and
steel and do plumbing and general job
bing. They occupy a large two-story
building at the corner of Fourth and
Main streets. This is filled with a very
extensive stock which Is displayed to the
very best advantage. Their goods and the
methods of the firm are widely known
for their excellence and the general sat
isfaction that the customer always finds
therewith. They have the highest rating
in business circles and with the public
and have a large and influential patron
age that hus been steadily growing.
E. A. PHILLIPS.
If ever any merchant deserved the
support and patronage of the community,
that merchant is Mr. E. A. Phillips, who
has recently succeeded to the business
formerly owned by Mr. G. W. Grace.
It is certain that few other merchants
have given so much care and attention
to the proper serving of the public with
the very best goods obtainable at the
very best prices possible consistent with
a fair profit. He has done everything
possible to make this an up-to-date and
thoroughly modern store. The store has
been neatly and effectively appointed
and the goods displayed in such a way
as to appear attractive and Inviting and
at the same time to give the best display
of the goods to the customer looking over
the stock for the articles he desires. Mr.
Phillips la recently from the East, but
has had much experience in this line of
business and is in every way capable of
carrying the business to a successful
point from the very beglnnlg. He has a
general stock of merchandise of all kinds
Tor the supplying of a community of this
size and his stock is quite varied em
bracing a great number of different lines.
Everything is of the best quality for the
prices quoted, and the large Btock gives
much choice as to style, pattern, etc.
I. TOLPOLAR.
In gathering statistics for this review,
we find that some houses, for straight
forward, honorable business methods,
enery and bnterprlse are entitled to
special mention. Among those who come
in this category is the house of I. Tolpol
ar, which is one of the most exclusive in
its line In this section. It Is located on
Main street, one door north of the Com
mercial Hank. The stock Is very large
and embraces new and secondhand fur
niture of all kinds, bedding, crockery,
glass ware, hardware, tools, etc. It Is
the otily first-class second hand store In
the city and It has by far the largest and
most select stock. Mr. Tolpolar has been
established In this business for the past
four years and has been each year ad
ding to his stock and lines and each year
his patronage has been steadily growing
lurger and better. This Is one of the
most honorably conducted establishments
In our city. Mr. Tolpolar Is a capable
business man, whoso guarantees are ac
cepted as assurances of good faith, and
he Is well deserving of the success that
Is coming to him. Every courtesy pos
sible Is offered the customer and his
wants are attended to most expeditious
ly at all times.
OREGON CITY SHOE STORE,
As an Individual Instance of the enter
prise and aggressiveness which have
brought our advancement, we quote as
an example, the Oregon City Shoe House.
The Messrs. Krausse Brothers are the
proprietors of this popular shop and Mr.
Wright Is the capable and genial gentle
man In charge directly. The store has
been established for eleven years, and
through maintaining good shoes and sell
ing at low prices, they have built up a
very large and valuable business. The
store is well located, nicely furnished
and equipped throughout In an up-to-date
way and the stock is displayed most
attractively. They have several of the
widely advertised makes of shoes that
have proven their merit by many years
of satisfaction to the public and their
many and varied styles, sizes and leath
ers, will enable any one to satisfy him
self In foot wear at this store. Although
there are many stores of this kind In our
city, we doubt If there is any more ably
managed and more progressive and heed
ful of their patron's Interests and needs
than the Oregon City Shoe House. Com
petent and courteous clerks ensure
prompt attention and intelligent service
and you can be assured of satisfactory
wearing shoes and prices at this excel
lent place.
GEO. A. HARDING.
The vocation of a pharmacist is an
Important one In any community, and is !
becoming more so, rather than less, j
Among the favorably known chemists
and druggists in Oregon City may be
mentioned the well known house con-1
ducted by Mr. Geo. A. Harding. The
store is located In the Willamette build
ing on Main street. He has been estab
lished here for some thirty-two years and
from the very first he has been suc

MISS WISNER.
N'o business has made greater progress
during recent years than that of up-to-date
photography. The mechanic has
been superseded by the urtlst, and the
result Is apparent In the great Improve
ment In modern machinery. To be a suc
cessful photographer nowadays, one
must be an artist In every sense of the
word, for the people are becoming more
and more critical and exacting In these
matters. In this respect, Miss Winner
