That Committee's Report. j We, the undersigned committee, wish to reply to, and try to set right seme cf the prevarications published in the Leader by the Hon orable W. C. Fischer of this place and Beal & Company of Portland. The readers of this paper will re member that in the latter part of June, W. C. Fischer had published an article stating that the purchas ing committee of road district No. 15 had never made a report of what they had done or purchased in the line of machinery. He was mis taken in this as we wrote a report of all business transacted and had it before the public within three days after our arrival home. It was placed at the postoffice and every- j body that wished to look it over could do so and twenty six tax payers signed the same, as it was put in the form of a petition asking the County Court to aid us in purchasindg said machinery for this district. The truth of the matter is that the said W. C. Fischer was so angry about us purchasing this machinery that he would not ask to see this report, nor would he come in to look it over. It has been said that he even asked one of the men that had signed said petition to withdraw his name from it. In the July 7th issue of this paper he had published two letters from Beal & Company, per their man, George Royer, com plaining about the said committee for not giving them a chance to quote their prices on road machinery We are here to state that we went to Beal & Co.'s office and then went and saw one of their crushers work ing, returned to their office the next morning and asked them to quote us prices on their crushers, and we waited there about one and one half hours, for them to. give us their prices, and during this time we asked them three different times for prices, and they always changed the subject and asked us to wait until they could quote us prices on steam ngines and second hand don keys, which we told them we wished to look at personaly and to thor oughly investigate, as we had prom ised the people at Siletz, we would do. Mr. Royer told several people at Siletz while here the last trip that the committee had used the Beal & Company's auto a whole day and that they did not even offer to pay for the use of it. That is an other falsehood of his as we offered to pay (Mr. Fclsnauhty, Mr. Beal's pardner) at two different times for the use of their machine and each time he refused to accept any pay whatever. Mr. Royer quoted a price of $2250 f.o.b. Toledo, for a 9x10 Aurora portable crusher at our road meet ing held here in April, and that was the only price we could get from Beal & Company. The other two companies we asked for prices quoted them to us in a good upright business manner, by us merely asking them once. They were a3 follows: Buffalo Pitts Co. a 9x10 Reliance portable crusher, $1650.00 f.o.b. Toledo. The Beach Mfg. Co. a 9x10 Fort Wayne port able crusher $1500.00. f.o.b. Toledo, and we accepted this offer We saw all three of the above crushers work ing and were unanimous in prefer ring the Buffalo Pitts Reliance and the Beach Mfg. Co's. Fort Wayne in the place of Beal's and & Co's. Au rora crusher. We visited the Russell & Co. en gine salesroom with Mr. Royer and the $1450.00 was the best price they could quote us on a second hand 16 h. p. engine. We bought good sec ond hand Buffalo Pitts engine for $700.00 f.o.b. Portland and it is do ing our work in first class shape. The committee feels sure that we have a better outfit than Beal & Co. could have sold us, and that we bought it for less money than they could have furnished an equally an outfit for. When Mr. Royer was in Siletz the second time he told other parties how he was going to tell THAT COMMITTE a few things, but he evidently forgot it when he talked with two of that commttee. He however told W. S. Hall about the fine second hand donkey he had looked up for us, a 50 to 60 h. p. Ledgcr-woodin good condition and doing work. CMr. Hall and an ex pert engineer looked over and ex amined this same donkey and the expert declared it worth about $400. and Mr. Royer was willing to let the committee have it CHEAP at $1200. We were offered this same donkey for $1100. by the man that owned it.. Mr. Royer only wanted $100. for his trouble. That looks like he was letting the committee have things cheap, as he states in his pub lished letters. In conclusion we wish to say that we now have our complete outfit at work and on a steady ten hours run can crush 140 yards of rock and gravel and that every part of the outfit does very satisfactory work We remain, Very respectfully yours, JOHN KEN TTA, P. H. ELTING, W. S. HALL. M. E. CHURCH NOTES. Our District Superintendent, Rev J. T. Abbett, will preach and hold the fourth Quarterly Conference on Friday evening. He will also preach on Sabbath evening. The pastor will preach on Sabbath morning. R. J Devenport.
