NOW WE SMILE


Under the above headline, in the
columns of the BioomSburg Ddiiy
and the Democratic Sentind Of July
9TH, appeared the following e1uson
Of brilliant intellect:
"Now WE SMILE
"rwo red hot binder contests took
place Tuesday. The first at VIM.
Masteller's between the Johnston Con
tinental Binder, sold by Fl. V. White &
Co., and the New Deering Binder,
sold by ID. w. Kitchen. The wheat
was very large and badly tangled, the
weather rainy, the ground hi'ly, and
both machines were tested to :he ut
most, but long before noon MIR. Kitch-
en- very gracefully conceded the victory
to the Johnston and left the field.
After dinner the contest was renew
ed at Howard Ohps between the
Johnston and the Osborne, handled by
c. II. Bomboy. Here again both
machines were thoroughly tried and
White & Co. carried off the victory.
In both cases White & Co. had placed
the Johnston Binder ready tor opera
ton with guarantee it would do good
work, and the other machine came in
to "knock out the Johnston" but they
couldn't and SNOW WE SMILE"
II. V. WHITE & Co.
MORALITY the Johnston Binder
before you buy"
Were it not for the malicious mis-.
representation of facts, the article
would be beneath our notice.
We did not "concedc the victory to
the Johnston and leave the field.
When Mr.. Masteler expressed his de-
sire to test the merits of the two ma
chimes without the assistance of either
agent, we left the field trusting to the
integrity of our competitors to do
likewise. They however remained
upon the premises, and when next We
saw our machine, ''we smiled at the
re-adjustments that had been made
after are left tie fetd, to make our
binder work at disadvantage.
Such an unmanly, contemplate act
as that needs no coment from us. In
the eyes Of right minded public, it
speaks for itself.
We always smile from 4 sincere feel.
ing OF pleasure. We never purchase
our ''smiles".
Another Binder contest took place
on the farm of Joseph Zeisloft, near
Ierseytown, between the Deering
Junior Steel Binder and the Johnston
Continental Binder, on July Sth.
This time we were wise enough to
stand by our machine, and with a
"smile that was child-like and bland
we watched the Famous Dsering whip
the Johnston at every turn and we
are sorry to record that our competi-
tors did not leave the field and "con.
cede the victoryto u.s. in avery '.grace-
full manner. But then we presume
the extreme warm weather accounts
for the condition Of their temper.
We desire to express our thanks to
Mess. H. V. White & Co., tor the as
slstance rendered to our customer on
Summer Hill, and to assure them that
We fully appreciate their kindness.
In closing we would bring to the
mind Of our esteemed competitors the
ole adage 'He laughs best, who
laughs last ID. w. KITCHEN.

Binder at Mr.. Zeisloft's as it was out
of our territory but we knowlthat Mr..
Zeisloft refused to permit contest on
July Sth, stating that he had purchased
Mr.. Kitchens Binder and would not
try any other. He said Mr. Kitchen
paid him S.. cash to bring out the
Deering Binder, gave him a bale OF
twine and a btck for his Famous
Deering' Folding Binder. We sub
init that it is much easier to under
stand. why Mr.. Kitchen sported a
"Smile that was child like and bland,
than to understand what he meant
when he stated 'we neverp,wchase our

customer, Sias Shuman, saw Mr.
Creveling tugging along a Famous
Deering" with three horses and then
saw Mr.. Mcbride cut a wider swath
with t,cO small horses in a Johnston
and it required no bribe on our part to
get HIM to return the Deering and
buy Johnston, and Mr.. Kitchen
with the aid of Shuman's father in-law
whom he brought from Mfflinville,
could not coerce Mr. Shuman to re-
consider and take the Deering. These
are the facts In the several cases We

GENTLEMEN =

GENTLEMEN -
After reading the account in the Blooms
burg Daily Of yesterday of The Binder con.
test at our place last week we feel that we
owe to you statement of just how this mat
ter was
When you came, in May last, to sell us a
Johnson Binder, we agreed that you could
set one up on our barn floor and when the
time came we would try it and if it did as
good work as any Binder we would keep it
and pay SI2s. 90 for it. Some time after
your machine was in our barn Mr.. Kitchen
came and agreed to pay Us $500 to get
one of his Deerins Binders to try with yours.
We accepted his offer, brought out his binder,
notified you and fixed upon the day for the
contest. Both were on hand as stated and
each worked his machine for all it was worth.
We did not inrite the agents 10 ieare tie isM as
stated, but did invite you and your men to
take dinner with us and you did. Neither
you nor your men, nor any one ELSE ''rsdd-
jttsted' Tie Deering Binder in Mr. Kitchens OBJ
sence and it was unfair and unknd in him to
state that you had done so mean trick, or
that we had permitted it. The contest was
fair and honorable, in the presence of some
twenty-five men, and your Binder done the
best work and run much lighter and we de-
cided to keep it and pay the price agreed up
on, (sI25,oo) In fact we could do nothing
else as honorable men, as it had done all we
could ask and you had fulfilled your part of
the contract. When Mr.. Kitchen came back
the next day and in your absence we tried
his Binder again, we consented to do so to
give him fair show and in going once
around the field the sheaf carrier failed to
carry the sheaves down bill, or on siding
ground and wheo the horse was walking in
the grain the machine would not cut six feet
wide, and we condemned it and returned it
and he paid us as he had agreed, Now this is
just how it all was and we think it was wrong
and mean for Mr.. Kitchen to misrepresent
the case.
