TO EVERYBODY

We declare the letters and posters which
have been sent out by the Mccormick Harvest
ing Machine Co. and circulated by the ConSoli-
dated Implement Co., to be utterly false in
every particular.
Mccormick has served no notice on the man
ufacturers of the Whiteley Machines and the
Whiteley in no way infringes any part of the
Mccormick, but on the contrary If people will
look at the Mccormick Harvester as made in
1889, and the one they offer this year, they will
see at glance that they have abandoned the
large gears and the sway bar drive for the
sickle, and stolen from us the Chain Drive and
the End Drive for their Pitman which we have
used since 1888, and they will be called to ac-
count for the same to Whiteley for the infringe
ments they are making on our machine
We have aflidavitS dated March 3D. 4th and
Sth last, proving beyond doubt that the Nc
Cormich outfit employed one of their men to
burglarize the Whiteley shop and stole certain
parts of the Whiteley Machine. We further
agree TO guarantee in writing to defend all pur-
chasers of either the Whiteley Mower or Binder
against any and all suits that will ever be
brought by Mccormick.
We denounce the unprincipled, low-down
scheme as lie and without the shadow of a
foundation. 1t on level with the lies circu-
lated by the same Utah parties in 1898 and 1889
that no more Champion repairs could be had,
as the company had busted, etc. This last lie
comes from exactly the same source.
We have not only the most complete stock of
repairs in Utah, but the Best Pairs of Machines
on Earth. Call on us at Salt Lake city, Ogden,
or at the nearest agency, and examine them
carefully.

ANOTHER "LoNG HAUL" SCHEME.

Mr.. Fitch, of the Riverside & Suburban,
said yesterday that the company had ex-
pected to have awarded contract for vitri-
fed brick for pavement long before this
time but had been delayed by a movement
before the railroads to have rate reduced.
In the classification the vitrified brick had
been placed in class with pressed brick
and the manner of handling each and the
purposes for which used very different. At
a meeting held over the matter at Kansas
City yesterday it was expected to get
change of classification reducing cost OF
vitrihed brick. AS soon as the result of
the meeting is known the company will
probably contract for vitrified brick made
in Atchison. The company would like very
much to be able to purchase the brick here
but owing to slack of time" in council
sessions and various other difficulties COM
ing from single source it is estimated the
council will be able to defeat the location
of a new and important industry for few
months yet at least. and with proper
manipulation by the single source will
probably defeat the proposed improvement
for a year and the 'long hauP' paving
material will ever hold the better hand
with the ''long haul' idea for city building
stone, paving material and everything else
said that he had just commenced to figure
on ''long haul" schemes. He had heard that
a very pleasant outfit will pull in from
Topeka within few days and lay before
the council with great gravity the scheme
of building a tower six hundred and
twenty-five feet high of rock to be secured
in Switzerland. The tower to have an
elvator shaft in the center to accommo-
date many people and on top space for re-
there during the hot season. As
much Switzerland stone put into the
thing as possible so the ''long hall" bill as
footed by the city would be large enough
that it could be seen when divided at least
two or three times. 1t is understood that
the Topeka outfit has sent down speci-
mems of the Switzerland stone, but the
city engineer will again report that the
Towanda stone is the best as it will stand
more pressure. 1t is believed in view of |
his fact that he will not be called upon |
or an opinion for it we'll not correspond |
With the '.long haui' idea. The tower is |
% be located well north between the rivers |
md a broad boulevard in the country |
'ound about and for acres around the |
over to be paved with Ft. Collins sand |
tone provided the lowest bid comes from |
he proper parties, if it don't some other |
will be made.
