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.
