ALL TO SELL AT ONE PRICE
sPALDING'S SPORTING GOODS TO
COMMAND A UNIFORM FIGURE
HEREAFTER
Chicago Base Hall Veteran and Man.
ufacturer of Sporting Goods Says
He VIII Refuse to Sell to Those
Who Cut Prices on His Goods.

The announcement of radical
change made by A. G. Spalding & Bros.
In their methods Of distributing Spald-
ing's well known trade-marked athletic
goods will interest the entire manu-
1acturing world and purchasers of
sporting goods. The scheme is briefly
that in future they will sell their
athletic goods direct to the retail deal
ers. and at one uniform price through
out the country and will require the re-
tall dealer to sell the consumer at one
and the same price throughout the
United States.
Mr.. Spalding says: After Jan. /,
1889, our business will be conducted
upon an entirely different basis. You
can call 1t revolutionary method. If
you please, but I think it is one that
will win out in the long run 1t is an
honest policy and must succeed. The
american public will appreciate this
policy. We will in future fix the price
to the retailer and the price to the con-
sumer. and both of them will be bene-
fitted. The quality Of the goods will be
maintained and the price will be main
tanned. We will say to the dealer: You
pay so much for the Spalding league
base ball and you sell it for SO much
The public will understand then that
the cost price has been fixed. They
will pay no more and no less, for the
dealer will be forced to sell at the same
price, and If some INSCRIPTIONS indi-
vidual, one Of those who take great
pleasure in tearing asunder a manufac-
turer's business by price cutting and
crowding out the small retailer, desires
by any method to hoodwink the public
by buying some Of our standard ar
ticles. such as the Spalding league base
ball or the Spalding bicycle, and cut
the price In order to bring the public
into his store to offer them inferior ar
ticles in another line, we will refuse
point blank to sell to that dealer and
you can mark my word that it will be
impossible for him to procure in the
future any of the Spalding trademark
ed athletic goods. Should any Of our
agents sell to him, they will be cut off
the list. In other words, in the future
we are going to control the output of
our goods, fix the prices for the dealer
and protect the public.
This scheme will at once appeal to
the small retail dealers throughout the
United States who have not the money
to go in on a large scale and get the
prices the larger concerns generally do.
He will be able to compete with the
largest concerns in New York and Chi
cago. The large stores cannot sell you
Spalding trade-marked athletic goods
for less money than he can. He is put
in a position where he has not been
since the present price-cutting methods
have been adopted"
The final outcome of this scheme will
be watched with interest and thousands
are hoping for it's ultimate success.
