IN SPITE OF THE MUD Truth Crushed to Earth Has Kisen Again. And in spite of all the proof that has been brought to bear agaiiißt the state ments of Grieb A I.amh, which has appear ed in our county papers from time to time, this martyred firm continues to "bob up serenely," criticising the action of the Fair Association and the uujust and villainous course I have pursued to obtain diplomas for the past five years. This I say is ab surd. I need use no bribe to gain honors for my goods. They alone speak for them selves and will continue to do so, especial ly as long as there is nothing fresher in the market than a Behr Bro.'s piano. 1 see this firm have in a way endeavored to answer the question I asked in regard to the piano they imported and afterwards shipped back to New York, from whence it came. I wish to say to the public that the proprietors of the Behr piano were dry goods merchants until within eight years ago, when they ventured in the piano busi ness. One Mr. Mullen was secured as superintendent of said firm, and ho being the ouly experienced one among them and finding the Behr piano was not a success began to experiment. He at last, through hard labor, found a new scale which he offered to sell to the Behr Bros. But the latter'thinking the amount too great he asked for the same, refused to buy, where upon Mr. Mullen left said firm and began to do for himself. This piano is not handled in tho United States by a first-class firm; is considered third class by the profession, and is as shoddy and light as the people who handle it. Now, can the public understand why the Behr Bros, piano was not recognized at ouf last Fair? The Kurtzmann piano is manufactured by C. Kurtzmann at the head of the facto ry, his father being a manufacturer in Germany. Coming to thin country in 1855 he established his now thriving business in Buffalo, V., and today has credit of making one of the finest instruments in the world. As far as the appointment of judges at our last Fair is concerned, will saj- I, too, was alrsent from Floral Hall when the de cision was made, but came in as judges were leaving my stand. I did not follow to my competitors' stand, neither was it >ny proposal that Mr. Frank, the gentle man in my employ, play on their instru ments. Perhaps my language in regard to a second contest may have been more forc ible than elegant. Hut, 1 was not asked by Mr. Troutinan to submit to this until ■five o'clock, and by that time had taken premium instruments homo. And now I wish to state that although there has been a meuting of the Directors of the Fair Association the awards remain as they did at the close of the Fair, the members having refused to take any action whatever ill the controversy. With the above facts and kind solici tations of the public patronage 1 remain. Very Kespectlully, ALEX. WILLIAMS. Call and see my large stock of Kurtz mann I'ianos an 6-octave Dyer <£ Hughes Organs.
