Filer's Piano House withdraws interest in the Davis-Jordan Music Co. Entire stock
of twenty-seven Pianos and Organs thrown on the market: General Agent of Eiler's
Piano House takes charge. All Pianos to be sold at actual factory cost plus a small
amount to cover freight rather than ship them back to Portland
Our decision to withdraw our interest in the DAVIS-JORDAN MUSIC CO. will undoubtedly be received on all sides
with astonishment and regret. We have decided to concentrate our retail business in Portland and do a wholesale busi
ness only in the smaller cities. This explains out withdrawal from the La Grande field. Within two weeks every inslru
ment in the DAVIS-JORDAN stock must be sold in order to realize on our equity in the firm. To ship these fine Pianos,
Auto-Pianos, Pianola-Pianos and Organs back to Portland at an expense of freight and cartage, would not be advisable for
then the instruments would still have to be sold. We are therefore going to close them out right where they stand. So
long as we realize approximately the cost of the goods we shall be satisfied. In this magnificent stock you will find Pianos
of world-wide reputation, such as the KIMBALL, HOBART M. CABLE, LESTER, BUSH & GERTS, HALLAT & DAVIS, SCHU.
MANN, STORY & CLARK, MARS All & WENDEL and other standard makes. Auto-Pianos, Pianola-Pianos and Players are

These prices seem Improbable, but if you stop to consider the freight on the instruments back to Portland, the expense of boxing, the drayage bills, etc,, you will understand I f :
