THEMABeschreibung
TEXTThat a man of wide experience and great executive ability is required to successfully manage the affairs of a general store is a fact universally conceded. No higher compliment to the business enterprise and sagacity of the gentleman whose name forms the caption of this article is required than the mere statement that his store has acquired a front rank among the establishments of Bloomfield, although it is only twelve years since it was started with a small capital by the present proprietor. The store-room is a fine one, offering unusual facilities for the display of goods, and is 20x50 feet in size. The stock comprises a large and varied assortment of staple goods, such as fine groceries, provisions, fashionable dry goods, and many other articles embraced under the common name of general merchandise. Great discrimination is employed in purchasing, and consequently the quality of the goods compares favorably with that of any like establishment in the countiy. Mr. Colfax is a native of Passaic County, N. J., and has served the citizens of Bloomfield for several years as Judge of Election.
