The President of tte National Sewinj,
Machine Ccmpaay Writes a Letter
to Goo, j C. WilL tie Salem Dealer
in Sewing Machines, Pianos and
Organs. 1
Tlie following is a letter to Geo. C.
Will, the ipl I tewing machine dealer,
who, ia his long experience has found
the sjme faults in all former rotary
machines: . . .
"PreKidnt's OCce, i
44 National Sewing Machine Co
, "Belvidere, 111.
I f . "May 25, 1904,
'Geo: d Will, Salem, Oregon: Dear
Sir: During the writer's nearly forty
years of actitne- lalr in tbo wanfact
tnre of sewing machines, it has been his
chief and constant aim and ambition
to produce the best. That he lias leen
somewhat i'sueerssf ul is evidenced by
the satisfactory service that hondrls
of thousands of Eld red ge sewing ma
chines have given to the people in all
parts of the world during all these
years.' ' -' : -
"As different rotary machine- have
been introduced from time to time, I
have studied them all carefully as they
eame forth, and while h have felt" that
the rotary principle was correct, I have
seen in studying the results of the years
of.labor r.nd effort on tho part of
others, fha the ideal rotary machine
was still to come. Several times I have
taken up this style of machine, but al
ways with the same result; nothing
new and nothing better than the very
unsatisfactory. resultsi obtainable by
others! 5 Several years ago, I resolved
to make another effort, and since that
time-havo had a corps of experts work
ing, continually on the' problem. Some
times results - were encouraging, anil
sometimes it seemed as if to gain the
end I was after was utterly beyond
mechanical possibility. Esecially was
this so fifteen mouths ago, and at that
time I aHbut made up my mind to aban
don once for all any effort in this line,
as I would not offer to the public a ma
chine which was. lacking in so many iof
the elements of a simple and perfect
sewing machine as those then on the
market, and it seemed impossible to
supply these lacking elements; About
that tiirte in experimenting, I struck
an I original lino of thought along new
channels,; that seemed likely to bear
fruit ia success.: The farther this line
of experiment was carried, the more it
became evident that it would eventu
ally result in my desired ideal of a ma
chine. - i
"The first model of this Rotary ma
chine wait completed about one yer
ago. AU through its development and
since its I completion", I have gone over
this machine forwards and backwards;
figuring land renguring, testing and
studying! each and every detail. I
have put it to the hardest tests that I
could conceive "of on all kinds of goods
under all conditions; threaded and un
threaded presser foot oft and presser
foot on; have fun it backward and for
ward; have used improper needles, and
in fact tested it in every way of whieh
I ha've knowledge, m an effort to find a
weak spot, or one which was sensitive
an.l likely to prove troublesome.' This
I have done not once, but daily for
months at k time, and as a result I now
say to yoa without fear of contradic-'
tion, anl with a knowledge that the.
ground I take is one . of remarkable
conceit, that thenew Eld red ge Rotary
sewing machine which will le put on
the market the first day of June, is
without exception the most marked de
parturef rom and decide! improvenient
on tho regular rotary i sewing ma
chine idea, " that has ever been offered
to the public. ' ' i
vThe history of the Rotary machine
is that one desiring to use it must first
be instructed' and coached by an ex
pert. Eighty per cent of rotary snles
are in the large cities, where expert in
structors follow every sale day after
day for purposes of giving instruc
tions. The xotary has never been a
successful or pojmlar country machine,
oecanse sor the fact that the country
dealer jeould not cover his large terri
tory and give the necessary time and
effort for all of these instructions. In
many ease the dealer himself i cannot
spare t!u time, for the study of the
rotary machine that is jieceswiry to
make him a successful salesman.
"In offering the Eldredge Rotary to
the public and the trade, I present a
machino that fan Ik; sold 'just exactly
the same, as a vibrating shuttle ma
chine. It is so simple and positive that
no expert knowledge is required, either
"by the dealer or by tbe user. . It is tbe
only machine of its character, that ? a
manufsetnrer. would be safe in shipping
direct from the factory to an inexper
ienced user, feeling that the operation
,of the machine was so simple that no in
structions -other than the ordinarv
printed I ones would be required, and
that the .machine would prove itself
the most satsifactory one ever gpld.
in tninxin? or this maebme it must not
be confused with others of the rotarv
class pr type, for it is entirely distinct
and original in principle. ; ,
"My standing in the sewing machine
irn.ie ior tne past thirty-eigat years
nas neen .such ttiat 1 could not afford
to makp the. above statements without
knowing that they -were absolutely
truthful. I could npt afford to brinz
upon myself the criticism that wuld
naturally follow a letter of this char
acter if the machine did not in everv
respect fulfill every claim made for it.
As president of the National , Sewing
Machine Co.,I could not afford to jeop
ardize its business by sending out over
my signature a letter of this eUaraeter
unless I knew whereof I spoke. This
machine has from the beginning had
my particular personal interest. Are
yon interested in a machine of this
character f If you are and would like
to correspond relative to it, a letter
forwarded in the enclosed self -addressed
envelop will reach my personal
desk, an.TI assure you that I will be
only too glad to reply fully to sny in
clines yoa may care "to make, I remain

Mr. A. Welch of Baker iCty, A3sttms
; Control as Manager of Salem Light-
Inj and Railway Syr-tem Will Grcat
; ly Improve Systcci and Extend Lines
. . Loop via Penitentiary and Asylum.
Control of the property -of the Citi
zens' Light 4; Tra;tien Company has
been formerly awnmed by the incorpor
ators of the nev eompany. Mr. A.
Welcl, who will l rn&nager of the eom
pany, and Mr. Edward Hall of Baker
City, arrived ia the city yesterday, and
ffter a short inVpecton, Mr. Welch re
turns 1 to Portland, on business, lie
will return to ffflem within a few days
and will then begin pushing the many
improvements which are to ie put
through. Mr. Welch is familiar with
Salem, as he traveled through for five
Sears, selling electoral supplies. He is
;n electrician practical experience
having been la the business for seven
teen years, and is able to see at a "glance
just v-f at is nee.n-1 to improve the pres
ent rilwjiy wyiJem, and ai the same
time make it iMons economical.-
Mr. Welch stated that he had not
been among the occple long, but had
noti-ed much ill feeling against the. old
eompanv and hi first aim would be "to
heal these sore spots. He was going to
overhaul the er.ti system, improving
tho road bed, and painting the cars, attd
in other ways renovating them. They
see much work ahead of them, but are
goinj to study the situation and make
improvements wherever necessary. Mr.
Welch was not irelined to talk freely,
but tc he carries cut all of his present
intent'ons, as intimated yesterday, tho
change in the system will mean a great
deal lor Salen," and will bo at least a
partial realization of tbo . cherished
hopes cf Salem people to sometime have
in their midst a modern railway system.
In go.ng over the line the: first thing
which attracts! Ida eye as needing im
mediate attenticn w&t the lines running
to thj asylum and jienitentiary. He
prepose-s to buibl a eonnecting line from
one institution to the other and form a
loop, so that eirs muy make a continu
ous circuit, an I thus give twice the ser
vice vrlth the sai.ie immber of ears.. This
will be done as soon as practical,, pro
vided a right ?t way can be secured.
Mr. "Welch nlso s.i.i there were iseveTal
other matters! of improvement of the
lines which wonld.be given immediate
attention, but be di not care to liscuss
them. The plan will include the prop--
ed extension of the Fair Grounds line
into a continuous loop, as has been talk
ed, cf for some time. Mr Welch -w-as
not prepared to pay if this 'will be ilone
before the next State Fair, as it will
have to await its turn in the general
plan of improvement.
There is also a possibility of extend
ing the line acress the steel bridge, to
make connectiui v.itb the Salem and
Dallas railroad, provided the latter pro
ject is pushed to a successful conclu
sion, and there ?eems to be no doubt of
this being done. Ths matter has only
