stock may be thrown in sinking fund for the company
and besides iquidatng the principal and interest in twen

Should the Legislature refuse charter under these gorou
projects and methodca specuatons, the world will regard

Bank Bonds thus paid it that they never vii
be.
The press generally throughout the State should take stool
in this Water Power Company.
