kinds, when directed by proper skill aad en-
terprise, can be naturallZed within eur city

Our citizens nave, therefore, direct interest
In the success OF all such establishments.
Why send 10 another or q foreign city for ar

as well manufactured at home! Why send
our mechanics to those cities to labor
In the construction OF those articles! Why
not retain and employ them here, and secure
for ourselves and our city the prosperity and
wealth that their labor elsewhere produces
These are practical and important subjects for
the consideration OF our people. They should
look to IT.. Our citizens should, by q liberal
patronage Of such enterprises the Messrs.
Joy ce, manifest their interest In their continued
success They, by sustaining them, will In
crease the commercial or business prosperity
OF our District, and, by building up the COM
mercial prosperity OF our people, adding

will also contribute largely 70 the increase of
their own Individual resources, happiness and
prosperity
