The Pottery Agaln-An Importer
playing BIind-Repubiican Con.
EressionaI COMMUNICATIONS Talk
A meeting will be held tomorrow
friday evening, at the Recorders Office,
in the interest of the pottery enterprise.
The final decision will be made at this
meeting whether Steubenvllle ls 10 have
q pottery or not, and it therefore behooyes
every ono who has any interest in the
matter to attend Mr.. Robert Donaldson,
who has been all along convinced that
there was money in the business, and
who is anxious TO invest money III II has
been in Trenton, n, j., for some time,
gaining information about the matter.
The more be has seen OF IL
the more anxious he is to invest,
and as Mr.. Donaldson is one of
the most sagacious business men Steu-
benville can boast OF, it looks well for
the business. Unlike East Liverpool, the
Trenton people are anxious for other
places to engage in the business, seeming
degIrous of having the business extended
in this country, so that it will be unnec-
egsary for our people 20 go outside OF
their own country to purchase sll their
earthenWare. The Trenton men who are
in the business say that there Is no doubt
but that there is money in the business.
They say they have made money out of
it, and consequently if Steubenville was
to 90 into it she would make money also.
If arrangements can be made at the meet
ing tomorrow night for Steuben vile
capitalists to loan them $4,000. Mess-s.
Donaldson and Brownlee will be willing
to enter into the business on their own
account. For the money so loaned they
will give mortgage on the whole es'
adjustment, so that If any one are the
losers they will be so in greater pro-
portion than any one else. We cannot
see that our people could ask for any
fsirer proposition than this, and they need
have no fear of being cheated, Tor Messrs.
Donaldson ana Brownlee are known to
every one OF them as stsunch, upright
business men, who have been engaged IN
business in this city for years, and
have meyer been guilty of anything that
WAS not fair and honest. Turn out
everybody tomorrow evening, and give
the subject serious consideration.
