THE STARS opposition to Mark
Smiths nomination for delegate to

AN OPEN LETTER.

GUARDIAN q card from w. B.
Fonda, notifying the public that
in order to protect his patent
medicine trade he lntends(O put
ting in stock of pure drugs and
will sell them at halt the price
sold by the drug stores. Mr..
Fonda, as an honorable and truth
full gentleman, ought to have no
patent medicine trade to protect
as l bought him out and paid him
full wholesale prices for everything
he had in the way of drugs and
patent medicines, with the posi-
tive understanding that he was
not to put that line of goods in
stock again. The contract was
not in writing, but it was in the
presence of witnesses, whose words
are iDdesputable and who have at
least the reputation Of being truth
full and honorable citizens. The
cut in patent medicines which l as
a member of the Stafford Drug Co.
instituted, was directed mainly
against w. B. Fonda, and l am
pleased that the bullet struck where
it was aimed, as he has been the
fist dealer to yell. If the gentle

them for half the price the Stafford
Drug Co. sells them for let him
crack his whip and go ahead.
When Mr.. Fonda put in his
stock of patent medicine he came
to the Stafford Drug Cos, store
and tried to make my partner, E.
7. Ijams, and myself believe that
he bad not ordered the goods, but
that the King Medicine Co. were
forcing the goods on him, and he
wanted us to take them off his
hands. suppose the freight was
some what higher than he expect
ed. This we refused to do, as
neither of us placed the least con-
fidence in what he told us, but fully
believed that he ordered those
goods deliberately end in direct
violation of his word.
