OPPOSITION TO HIGH PRICES.
WO MONOPOLIES:
DOWN WITH COMBINATIONS.
Ail Open Field for Competition.
KANSAS has had her share Qf the Glory, Fun,
Confusion &c., and I am happy to state that
she is about quieting herself and yielding the palm
to the little village of Tioga.
About the first of November last I 'commenced
selling Goods in Tioga, am still selling, j For a little
time past there has been quite an efibrtjon the part
of some to establish a standard price.for goods par.
Ucnlarly on leading articles the very articles of
which the poor man uses the most. :-A few days
since 1 made up my mind to change jny prices on
FLOUR & MEAL,
as I thought 1 had a right to. I therefore had a
very modest handbill printed informing .the people of
what I intended doing in the future. No sooner had
the fact become known that I had reduced the price,
than one man selling the same kind of Goods, says:
“Its a lie ! Con’t be the same article! I know it
ain't good 1” Another, interested in .keeping up
oldTogy prices, presents thc documents to show that
from the prices he pays in Buffalo for Flour, Meal
&c.,of course BTZ'S article at the low price can
not be as good as ours at our high prices. Great
discovery! Sensible reasoning! Humbug conclu
sion ! j
How long since did they find out that my articles
were not tip.top ? Why, just the moment my price
did not agree with theirs. Our only answer to their
unkind remarks toward us, is, that our flour was
very nice until we changed the price. Did that
change tile quality ? when it is the selfsame article
we have sold since last April. Hundreds can bear
me witness that it is as s nice as any article they ever
used.
It" has never been our practice nor never will be
to say aught of the quality of our neighbor's goods.
But wc do say that our “extra superfine” and u sa.
perCne” flour is as good as any flour manufactured
or sold in Tioga County. You citizens that buy
don't longer believe the humbug yarn that you must
pay from 50 to 75 per cent for goods, especially if
you get trusted a few months. No wonder every
plank in the Wellsboro* and Tioga Plank Road has
received a thousand curses from the merchants of
Tioga village, because it has driven trade from us,
they say. The curses will grow louder and deeper
both from buyer and seller until Goods are sold at
a reasonable cash profit. Since we commenced we
have tried to meet the wants of the public, and we
flatter ourselves that our large cash sales are good
evidence that our effort has not been a failure, bat
has been appreciated by a generous and candid pub.
lie. We shall continue selling Goods in the corner
store of A. C. & J, S. Bush, directly opposite of
Baldwin, Lowell & Co., where we shall be pleased
to show our Goods and give our prices. Wo shall
buy a large stock of all kinds of Goods in New
York this fall, and shall hope by pursuing a straight
forward course to merit the favor of enough of the
people of Tioga county to sell them and get our pay.
We shall try and have the quality and price satis,
