History of Miller Mercantile Co. -
The beginning ot the Miller Mercantile Co..
dates back 18 years when the Miller boys came to
Oregon from Nebraska.- - - - , -.'-"
. .Their first store was located In'McMInnville
and was opened during, the year 1902. ' This' was
a general store and was continued until 1909. when
the store' was disposed of .to a Mr. Messner. A
short time afterwards during the same year a new -store
was opened at Newberg, Ore., which In reality .
the parent store of the present organisation, and
is today the headquarters of the company. The
first branching out towards larger business was
in 19 13 when: they took over a going store in Day
ton, previously owned by a Mr. Shipper, his son '
baing retained as manager, which position he holds
today. In 19 IS they purchased another going bus
iness at Monmouth. .This store had been held for
six years by an estate being managed by Mr. Ek
C. Cole, who was retained in this capacity, which
position he still Itolds. In 1918.they.took into the,
organization their . present store In JIcMinnvlUe, .
which was located in the same room originally oc
cupied by, the Millers as. their first' store in Oregon.
This was a going business owned by Smith."
and Sisson, Mr. Smith retiring, and Mr. Sisson
being retained as manager, which position he held
nntil this week, when he was transrerrea as man
ager of the Salem store. In the spring of 1919
they added a store at Sheridan, known as tbe King
Smith Denartment store. This store hsd neen con
ducted for a number of years by the two Smith'
Brothers, who became stock holders or the Miller
company, Mr. King disposing of his Interests. The
Smith brothers were retained to manage the Sher
idan store. Later on during the same year iney
added a store at Yamhill, formerly owned by a Mr.
Gist, who bad just recently died. It was Mr. Gist's
personal wishes that the Millers take over his bus
iness. This store was managed for a little over a
year by Mr. J. B. Pierce until this spring when Mr.
Frank Miller, son of General Manager u. o.
Miller, was elected manager.
The last store to be added to tne usi was
H. W. and M. L. Meyers store pi tnis.cuy, wnicn
became the property of the MUler Mercantile Com
pany. Monday, April 5th ot tnis year, ana u.cu
purchase was made possible by -both theMeyers
Brothers desiring to retire jrom acuve ounss..or
the time being. . With the exception ot -tne-aieyers .
brothers retiring, the entire personal of the store
remaining with the" new owners, with one Or two
exceptions. It' has never 'been .the 'polley of the '
Millers to establish hew,' competitive' stores." butc
rather to take over going concerns, and in nearly;,
every instance retain the organisation intact. The 1
Company Ja (entirely aja. Oregon - Institution, very
dollar's worth of stock being owned by local peo
ple, and in no instance will stock be sold to out
siders Every manager is a Stock holder in the
company, and each store remafhs a purely local In
stitution, always ready to back up any local work,
truly believing in the slogan, ! "Xour Home Town
First.- , . ' "'
Mlci Store Policf' ;
The store policy of the Mljrer'MercantUe Com
pany can be su named pp in a very short manner, it
being,";-' ' " i.v " . .? r '. . : j 4' ... "

By STORE SERVICE we- mean that nothing -

' Lonjt years of eiperience makes the MILLER
COMPANY wtll acquainted with the best markets,
and QUALITY has always bee, and always win be
" the first consideration in. our purchases.
It is our aim to so establish our reputation la
Salem that 'the remark 'will be often beard utcs
our streets. -IF YOU GET IT AT MILLER'S. TOC
KNOW . TT8 " RIGHT. AND TILE PRICE WAS
RIGHT.-
.We believe in a "NO SALE POLICY- feeling
that honest business todsy demands that everybody
gets a SQUARE DEAL.' y '
When we see' a" garment advertised as worth '
$100.00 reduced to'f67.59 we are' inclined to think
that somebody' lied. No merchant can remain la
', business unless he sells his goods. at a profit. We
maintain that garment Is worth the same at all
times during the season. -
" " To charge Mrs. Jones an exorbitant price early
' : In the season so thst Mrs. Smlttt can get hers at a
- big redaction later on, an4 by so doing make oar
average profit, is not our way of dolus business.
To msrk our goods "RiaHT at the beginning so
' that Mrs. Jones sad . Mrs. Smith will both get a
SQUARE DEAL la our policy.
We feel sure that's the years go by we shall
win a warm spot in the hearts of Salem people.
We are only human, and will make mistakes, but
we assure, you .that they will be mistakes ot the
head sad not of the heart.
' ' . We are one of you, we want yon to be one of
. v us. Let's get acquainted.
