Show GIVE IT FAIR PLAY ank aak IT has come under our observation t that at an attempt has been made by some parties to hedge up the way of a very commendable c om enterprise recently established in this city we refer to the new roller mill of armstrong co in various directions wheres these gentlemen have endeavored to extend their business relations they have been met with the statement that the parties with whom they seek to do business by placing the product of the mill on sale have been informed that the flour is of inferior quality this report has been in circulation almost from the date of commencement of the mill to operate the parties who have floated the rumor doubtless had an ulterior object and have taken an unfair method of keeping the product of an advanced enterprise out of the local market there is no necessity for any persons being misled by such statements however as the proof of the pudding is in the eating 11 As a contra statement to that which has been industriously circulated we will express the conviction that the practical tactical rac test of using the flour produced aced at the new mill will dispel all idea of its inferiority having used it we are enabled to sa say unhesitatingly that it is not surpassed surpassed by any flour we have ever met with either here or in any other part of the world it is only a question of time when this fact will be generally admitted t a as s the reputation of the product is b bound 0 nd to grow on its intrinsic merits in fact it is now growing new ground belna beine gained daily but the reports which have been spread to the detriment of the enterprise make its progress less rapid than might be reasonably expected we ve have said so much for this enterprise i se which is a credit to this part of ude due the country because we are cognizant of the fact that it has not been treated in accordance with the principles of fair play |
