Good idea, TO leave your horse unhitched

Like many other things buttons on dresses
are going out of fashion. Nowadays the

MISCELLANEOUS NOTICES

To the anufacturers Of Portland.
The Board of Mdnufdcturers respectfully an
nounce to the manufacturers of Portland that
an exhibition of all the goods and wares manu-
factured in our city, or elsewhere, under the di-
rection and control of our citizens, will be held
in May nert at our City Hall, to be called THE
Portland Industrial Exhibition" prorided, suf-
fcient encouragement is received to warrant so
important undertaking by the Board,
Few people in our city, and none out Of 1t,
have any adequate idea of the amount, variety
or value of Portland manufactures.
The object of this proposed exhibition is, to
gather together specimen products from all our
factories and work shops under a single roof;
advertise the wares of all who exhibit; increase
the sale Of Portland manufactured goods; draw
the attention of capital and labor to our city;
and demonstrate the Importance of Portland an
manufacturing center.
The Board have no doubt that steam power
can be procured for running machinery, so that
nearly all kinds of manufacturing may be nut
in operation in City Hall before the eyes of
visitors.
There will be no charge to exhibitors for ad-
mission, or for space in the hall, nor will prizes
or diplomas be awarded.
The expenses of the exhibition are to be de-
frayed by small admission fee to all visitors
other than exhibitors.
To determine the feasibility of holding such
an exhibition as is herein suggested, public
meeting of the manufacturers of Portland is
hereby called to meet in the Common Council
Room, City Building on Wednesday evening,
Feb.1lth, ,1S74All persons in the city interested
in manufacturing here or elsewhere, are earn
estly and cordially invited to be present and
lend the aid of their personal counsel to an en-
terprise which it is believed, cannot but prove
advantageous to all interests represented and
enhance the business prosperity of all our citi-
zens.
