paign last year we supported senator
Gamble, always and consistently favar-
ing the retention Of Ehen w. Martin

The Stencil Piano Fraud.
Sheboygan, Wis, Apr. z

Sheboygan, Wis, Apr. 22, 1907
81. M. Coss, Medford. Ore.
Dear Sir:
Replying to your favor of the 18th
inst, will say that we have hereto
fore appointed you sole agent in
Southern Oregon and wish to men
tion the fact once more that you
are the only dealer in the south
ern part of Oregon, that is entitled
to sell the IS W. Miller" pianos
manufactured by the S. ". Miller
Piano Co. Of Sheboygan. Wis. Any
other piano turned out or manu-
factured or stenciled with similar
name is rank stencil and is not the
genuine IS. ". Miller" piano. In
order to protect the buying public
from frauds of this kind, we wish to
say that all genuine IS. W. Miller
pianos are manufactured at Sheboy.
gan, Wis. and have the name IS. W.
Miller Cabinet Graud, Chicago and
Sheboygan" on the fall board and also
have the name IS. W. Miller Piano
Go. y Cast in the cast iron plate. Any
other piano with a similar name ex.
cepting the Henry +. Miller piano
manufactured at Botson, Mass, are
rank stencils, and if we can trace
their origin, we will certainly bring
suit againt all such manufacturer.
and dealers. The genuine IS. W.
Miller" piano is strictly high grade
and cannot be sold for low price,
as there is no better piano manu-.
factured in the world.
We attach to this letter caution
slip printed a year ago, VIXEN we had
similar trouble with some manu-.
facturers making stencil s. w. Miller
piano and stenciling it Chicago.
These parties were promptly dealt
with and had rood suit on their
hands to settle. which they have done
and we have not been bothered with
these people but now it appears that
some other concern is making a simi-
lar stencil piano and stenciling it
New York. 1t will be a very easy
matter for Us to find out the origin OF
any stencil IS. W. Miller" pianos
and we will deal with them very
harshly. as we will appeal this matter
to the Manufacturers Association and
are sure that we can find out the
offender.
AS far as any other dealer is con
cerned, who states that he can sell an
IS. W. Miller" piano $50 less than
yoascan. will say that it is absolutely
false. as no one in Southern Oregon
oan buy an IS. W. Miller piano
from us. while you are our sole repre-.
sentative.
Sincerely trusting that this infor.
nation will enable you to set your
customers Alright in this matter and
protect them from frauds, we are.
Yours truly,
