Is most factoring. The location of the line is
one of the best in the country. II passes through
a large number of importantc and towns where
commercial intercourse is large and rapidly in
creasing. The country along the river is receiv-
ing constant accessions of wealth and population,
and these viii bring an increase of trade which
must correspondingly add largely every year to
the business and profits Of the company. All the
old telegraph companies throughout the country
idends on capital stock that has beer repeated
eddy watered. If these companies, controlled by
a few wealthy individuals owning nearly all the
Stock can do this, it is quite reasonable to sup
pose that company, owned and managed by lis
patrons, with its lines desirably located, and
with limited amount of stock, can at least do
equally well.
