Out of the Scotland NeCk Merchants
Association.
Editor The Commonwealth : I
wish to say through your paper to my
friends, customers, and the public gen
erally that I am no longer a member
of the Scotland Neck Merchants As
sociation. I do not endorse, favor or cooperate
with any movement or agreement to
restrict competition or control prices
on anything and especially the neces
saries of life, making them in Scot,
land Neck, aa my customers tell me,
a little higher than other towns charge
for the same articles. Now, I have
heard that since I withdrew from
the Association they have discon
tinued to restrict competition or con
trol prices on anything, which seems
to bear out my position as being right
eyen from their standpoint, however
bard it may have been for them to
yield to the opinion of one man.
