A CARD.
A Statement to Our Customers and the
Public.

A Statement to Our Customers and the
Public:
During the fore part of last week
we ran an ad. in the paper calling at
~tention to our prescription department
and the capability of the men in
charge. Mention was made of DR..
Hayes, who is not only a physician,
but registered in three states as a full
fledged pharmacist. DR.. Hayes is only
temporarily in this state and has noti-
fed everybody that he has no intention
of practicing here. DR.. Has as' title
is a legitimate one, and belongs to him
wherever he may go, state boards or
no state boards. DR.. Miller, probably
having had his attention called to my
ad. by the man behind" called on DR..
Hayes at the store on the night of the
18th, while | was at the Masonic ball,
and in an offensive and arrogant man
ner informed DIR. Hayes that he was
going to have him arrested for using
Tie lillt DbCIOl anu many NN9S
case of the same. After leaving our
place the doctor Immediately went up
the street to "the man behind" prob
ably for further advice and inspection.
Next morning DR.. Hayes told me of
the honor l had missed. That evening,
to bait the doctor and give him a
chance to further display his ability, l
put at the end of my ad., instead of
Mills, A Druggist, DIR. Mills, A Drug
gist." So overly anxious was the doctor
and possibly other interests to make
trouble for me that the bait, hook, line
and pole were swallowed with a gulp.
| The doctor didn't sleep well that night
on account of the anticipated trouble
in store for me lex day. With ban
ners flying, he prepared to march in
| upon us next morning, with all the au-
thority and dignity of the state of
Wyoming. The prosecuting attorney,
calling on very important business,
was wise to the fact that someone was
making a fool of himself, and, not a
ing to be added to the same category,
called on us to find the LAY of the
land" If DR.. Miller had been actuated
solely by a desire to perform honest
duties, he would have done that before
in person. The prosecutor was shown
my diploma from the Philadelphia col.
lege, the Oldest of its kind, granting
me the degree of doctor of pharmacy,
He smiled, went away and told the
doctor he had better back up. He
backed up good and plenty, but it must
have been a very bitter %disappoint
ment.
With the splendid material we have
in this state, why can't all offices be
filed with men who would honor and
dignity an office, instead of men who
lend themselves to small purposes and
make their office a laughing stock and
farce? We wouldn't take notice OF
such childish actions if We did not
feel hat a state official was making
use of his position to attempt injury
to private business interests that
might be opposed to interests of mis-
own or the interests of the man who
pulls the apron string.
Now, DR.. Miller, you were so n
ious t make a test case" If these
statements are not true, make a test
case" of them. The anne court you
were so anxious to get me before is
still working. This is not a bait"
DR.. MILLS, A Druggist.
