The Iowa plain dealer. [volume] (New Oregon, Howard County, Iowa) 1867-1895, 1890-01-16
How it il With Us.

The large city merchants are reach
ing out for the country retail trade
through newspaper advertising also.
We have declined within the last few
weeks good advertising propositions
from Huntley, the Chicago clothier;
Eagle T. Co., the Chicago grocers and
general dealers: Montgomery Ward
4 Co., of Chicago; and st. Paul and
q st. Louis mercantile firm. We
notice that number Of our exchang-
es have accepted their offers evident
ly where they do not conflict with
home Advertising. If local dealers
will not advertise, outsiders are GER
tainly entitled to the privilege. Ju-
dicious and persistent advertising
pays. and the shrewd city merchants
know it.-[Cresco Times.
The News has had the same expert
ence as the Times, and has adopted
the same course. We constantly urge
our readers to traded with our home
advertisers. thoroughly believing that
there will be found the best bargains.
They are men Of integrity who guar
antee their goods, and are RESPONSE
BILE for all representations made by
them at time Of sale.-lOsage News.
And we, the wicked PLAIN DEALER,
Just as does the Times and the News,
open our columns to patent medicine
men, though firmly believing that
our home physicians are safer and
better guides to care for the sick
than any patent medicine man with
"a panacea for every ILL., We adver-
tise for machine men away from
home just as they do. We advertise
for soap manufacturers in Chicago,
Cincinnati and Buffalo just as they do,
though we have plenty OF Iowa
manufacturers, and might have more
if there were more Iowa patrons. We
advertise for Eagle & Co., Of Chicago
and find them splendid men to deal
with, their goods are prime quality,
the best that money will buy, their
prices less than inferior grades are
sold at in every town in Iowa. We
advertise for Huntley s Co, who are
honorable dealers, pay good prices
for their advertising and sell a good
article at fair price. We buy our
clothing from l.. Loewenstein T. Co.,
of Chicago, or Of our home dealers as
suits us. The protection we ask for
ourself is the same that the home
merchant demands for himself, the
right to buy where we can do best
for ourself.
The home merchant should they
give the preference to our own Flour
ing Mills, only bringing in from
abroad what our mills could not sup
ply. would thereby not only aid in
building up this industry in our
midst. but such course course will
build up q home market for our home
grown wheat to the mutual advant-
age of producer and merchant as well
as miller. But instead Of this, they
buy their flour where they get the
best terms, regardless Of these other
interests, exercising the same rights
that the PLAIN DEALER demands for
itself. And SO with mechanical work.
Our merchants il they are going to
build q residence or store or business
house of any kind, instead Of hunt
ing out some Of the builders OF Ores
co, they scour the world for those
who will give them most forthe least
money, our neighbor Of the Times
when building his beautiful home,
setting the bad example, though
architects and builders, fully as good
as the one employed, lived within .
stone throw Of him.
The PLAIN DEALER is always read,
to open its columns to the use Of ev.
cry Legitimate home enterprise, and
such advertisers always have pref
erence in position and in price and
terms, and such men always have the
trade OF it's dependent families AMI
Office force, with whatever Of money
they have to invest. The men who
are too penurious or too partizan tt
patronize the PLAIN DEALER, have
no claims upon its patronage anc
they don't get it, and We presume
that il the Times and News will al
frankly tell the truth. will say thu
same thing. Newspaper men as Z
rule are u little lower than the an
GELS just enough that they are hu
man, and being human they reMem
Der, and If possible, reward theil
friends with the best patronage theil
influence can bring.
