A LYING STATEMENT.
4 SANDER on the Creamery Re-
futed.

to the creameries in this State.
The dispatch stated that the cream
cries were being run on oleomarge-
rine, and that most Of the products
from which the butter was made by
these creameries was procured at
Lew Drexler's oleomargerine factory
in San Francisco.
The article also stated that since
the creameries were established the
soap factories of Nevada found it
hard work to secure sufficient raw
material to run on.
knowing the charges made in the
article to be manufactured from
whole cloth, an APPEAL reporter
called on Governor Colcord, Vice
President of the Company and Act
ing Manager, and offered its columns
for statement. The Governor said:
81 cannot understand why news
paper should publish such an article.
| would not even make denial or
explanation did we only furnish the
home market, but as our product goes
all over the Coast, it may be adv's-
able to make statement.
''The charges are absolutely false.
| We never yet delivered an ounce o
butter from our creameries that was
not made fro j absolutely pure cream
and | am authorized to say that our
Company will pay $1,000 for any
/ chemical analysis from, reputable
chemist, showing that our butter
contains anything else than the pro-
duct If pure milk.
| Our butteri is on sale at many Of
the leading houses in San Francisco
and we invite the Examiner people
or anyone else to take samples Of the
butter and have it Analysed by com
| petent chemists and the company will
pay the expenses If analysis
/ We think the best proof Of its pur-
r. ty is The fact that We have never yet
lost 4 customer and our present Gus
! toners are calling for more. We
have recently closed a contract with
/
the Bohemian Club ana Palace Hotel
Of San Francisco, to furnish them
our butter for one year.
With our present facilities we are
unable to supply the demand for our
butter. We are now purchasing from
the farmers 1000 pounds of milk
daily and are arranging to largely in
crease our facilities with additional
creameries, now in course Of con
struction.
under ordinary circumstances /
would not consider it necessary for n
business man to to advocate his own
honesty | will say however III this
connection, that the President Of the
company, who has been the most ar
dent promoter of this enterprise, has
an enemy in Virginia City who is EN-
deavorlng to injure him by the circu-
lation of false and malicious reports,
which if believed might seriously eff
feet the business of over three hun
dred farmers in this State, as well as
a large number of shareholders in
this company, but as these accusa-
tions are made by inuendo only, 1t
would appear to be rather difficult
matter for us to defend ourselves IN
the Courts.
The dispatch speaks of recent tests
having been made of this ba ter
which showed olecmargine. y 10
not believe such tests were ever
made and we challange their pre-. lc-

making them. The charge that we
purchase our material of Lou Dress
Ter (meaning probably Dexler) is
false, we never had dollars worth
Of business with Mr.. Dressler or
Dexler and challenge the proof.
The charge that Nevada soap fac
tories are closing up because of the
creameries is too ridiculous to merit
reply. During the present month
we purchased of the farmers in Car
son and Mason Valleys about 81, 800
worth of milk and our books are
| open to the inspection of any one
! who cares to see them.
''In my opinion the whole anlmus
of the attack is to satisfy a grudge
against Mr. Williams on account
of the recent mining suit.
