EmiKSK City, Or., Sept. 1, 1887. F.Diiou GfAim: Iu answer to the card of the Droivnsville Woolen Mills iu last week's Gi'AKD, I wish to reply as follows: 1 have a large line of lirownsvillo clothing on hand, and the lirownsvillo Woolen Mills are "kicking" because I am selling their own goods from J!) lo s?."i per suit cheaper than their agent here can. I purchase my goods outright fur cash, hence I get litem cheaper than the company lets Mr. Cherry, their agent, have them on commission. Mr. Cherry, the lirownsvillo agent, also has Strauss ,v Levy's goods, of San Francisco, and does not keep Ifrowusville goods exclu sively. When I sell lirownsville goods they ft re Erownsville goods; when I sell other goods I inform the people so, and make no misrepresentations. The lirownsvillo Mills me "kicking" because I undersell them iu their own goods. 1 would like to nsk Mr. D. D ilghish, agent, if boy's clothing run in numbers from Jo to 12 as mine does.
