Desires to inform the tWoplo of Gilliam county that his
business is running on full, time at the bid stand Union
Block, Arlington, Oregon; that the flashy, misleading
newspaper advertisenumts and circular letters that are
flooding the country have not affectod his trade; but on
the contrary, sales have been increasing. His many old
friends and customers realize that no business man will
give away something for nothing. What he loses on the
"baits" he will more than doubly make up on the other
goods he sells his customers. Look out for snares. One
of our greatest statesmen 40 years ago truthfully said:
"You can fool some of the people all of the time, and all
of the people some of the time, but you can't fool all of
the people all of the time."
James W. Smith's immense stock of goods
will speak for him. Call and examine the
largest stock of goods ever shown in Gilliam
county. His stores are loaded from floor to
ceiling, and as regards prices he will en
deavor to keep in the "procession."
Many of the lines are bought direct from the East in large
quantities for cash, which enables him to give his custom
ers great inducements to favor him with their patronage.
He sells the Oliver Chilled plows
and extras, including the New
Departure two and three gangs,
also the John Deere plows of all
kinds, the Studebaker, Bain and
Racine wagons, hacks and bug
gies, the Standard, Acme and Mc-
Cormack mowers, reapers and
hay rakes, the latest improved
Pitts threshing machinery, the
up-to-date old reliable Hodge
steel-frame headers, Holt Bros.
Combined Harvesters, Etc., Etc.
Camp and sheepmen's supplies a specialty.
Highest prices paid for hides, pelts, etc.
When in Arlington call and get pri
ces before closing deals elsewhere.
