A MERRY WAR IS on.
A Paint War.-Some Things Worth
Knowing.

We did not suppose that our little cir
cular sent out few weeks ago calling
attention to our paint stock and incid-
entally quoting few prices would sir

We thought We were in = community
where we could live and let live and il
We bought and paid for paints and wish
ed TO put our own prices on them we
would not fret have to consult our com
pelitors: But we find we we're mistaken,
our circular letter had no sooner been
distributed than cry was raised thstthe
Carter White Lead which we sell was
not as good as the Pioneer Lead and
therefore could be sold for less money
that Carter Lead was high at ~ cents
because it VAS a cheaper lead. That
Pioneer Lead was cheap at s cents be-
cause il was q superior Lead
While this rot was going on at home
some deeply interested person in Salem
sent TO the manufacturers Of Pioneer
lead our circular letter calling attention
TO our cut in price Of lead and requesting
an investigation with a view to either
cut off our supply or rsise the cost to ne.
The Pioneer people at once took the
matter up with Mr.. Moore, Pacific Coast
agent for Carter White Lead, and be in
turn with his Company, who manuiac.
ture Carter White Lead, who referred
the matter TO me, and they have my re.
ply, viz:
II will not advance the price Of
Carter White Lead to satisfy any one,
it may 90 lower but under no circuLc-
stances will there be an advance unless
the manufacturers combine and raise
the price to the dealers"
We have not time or inclination to
cry down our competitors wares. We
think it shows weakness to make a
statement that Carter White Lead il
inferior, at the same time using every
effort TO force one out Of business or
raise prices.
We wish TO assure the public that
the Paint as well as the Drug Business
will henceforth receive our earnest
attention, only the best goods ca rried in
stock and low prices shall prevail.
We quote prices subject to market
changes, Carter White Lead ~ per
pound, Pure Boiled Linseed Oil, 70 cents
per gallon, Raw Oil Il cents per gallon,
TurPentine IS cents per gallon.
We take this occasion 10 thank our
kind friends for generous good will and
patronage shown us during our nineteen
years residence in Salem and trust by
fair dealings 10 merit a continuance.

Black Hills MIca.

Deadwood, s. d., Feb. 26.-The mica
industry of the Southern Black Hills is
rapidly assuming considerable impor-
lance. Not until the past year has the
real value of the mica deposits become
known. The Chicago Mica company
which has extensive cutting work at
Valparaiso, Ind, has bought up all the
old mica dumps around the county,
buying in all about nine car loads, for
which $40 per ton was paid. The COM
pany now has three mines Of it's own
and is shipping about Ave car loads Of
mica per month. The largest mica
blocks ever found in the Black Hills
have been taken out by this company
from the DAILY mine, located two miles
northeast of Custer. The Black hills
mica is not as a usual thing very clear,
but it is free from iron, which makes
it of especial value for electrical pur-
poses.
