Il large scale in this State in Auburn, has be-
come contagious, until now half dozen towns
ire bidding for capitalists to come and invest
in shoe manufacturing establishments, re-
teiving pledges of help from the towns in

these towns ''poked fun" at Augusta when our
citizens wisely decided to invest much in the
same direction, causing "foreign capital" to
ow in, to the building up of the business of
Inc town. Perhaps inducements may yet be
ffered for some enterprising shoe manufac-
tlrer to come here and build factory, afford
ing profitable employment to three on four
hundred persons. We notice that Camden is

Mass, proposes to come there to engage in the
shoe manufacturing business, and put in $l0,
600 himself, provided the citizens will raise
