A, R. Gray of Eugene, announced
the sale yesterday of bis store ln
thia city together with his grocery
stores In Cottage Orove, Eugene and
the Producers Public market build­
ing to Merwin R. Irish of Salem,
owner of a group ot stores In 8alem,
Lebanon, Brownsville, Toledo, Dallas,
and Corvallis. The acquisition of the
stores ln the upper Willamette valley
now makes Mr. Irish the manager
of 12 stores in this state.
Coming at the uune time as the
announcement of the sale was a state­
ment that Manager Dallas B. Murphy
has purchased a half Interest In the
grocery store In this city from Mr.
Irish and that he will also have a
half Interest In the feed store here
with A. R. Gray, who retain« his feed
store and feed warehouse la Eugene.
No changes in the staffs of either
of the stores here la contemplated
as a result of the new deal, accord-
to Mr. Murphy. The «tore will be
operated In the same manner ln which
It always has with the exception that
Mr. Murphy will have a financial in­
terest in the business which he did
not have before.
All of the stores will be operated
under the name, Gray’s Cash Stores
for the present, and Mr. Irish la
reported to be considering moving
his headquarters from Salem to Eu­
gene.
The local store ceases to be a Red
and White store with the new owner­
ship. Mr. Irish has his own buying
channels which he thinks are superior
to the Red and White arrangement.
Mr. Irish waa with the Gray store
in Eugene from 1818 until 1888 in the
capacity of an employee and waa a
partner ln the business between 1823
and 1884.
