Olympia Railroad Union has S1GO, 900
of it's capital stock un-subscribed. Let
$120, 900 of this stock be withdrawn from
public subscription, either expunged or
placed in reserve, not subject to issue.
Then offer the remaining $40 900 stock
for subscription. Allow those who can
not pay promptly reasonable time. Take

none other, and have the whole $40 900

the event of extending the road farther

or interest to pay. The road will pay
expenses from the start, and in very
short time will begin to yield dividends.
