We have waited like

cal p. osperity. We have waited like
Micawber for something to turn up,
instead of using every enieavor to
turn up something ourselves. If
the manufactures at Seattle are
compelled to decline orders for sta
pie articles which can be made here
as cheaply and with a fair margin
for profit, it seems to us that the
bare statement should secure us all
the capital needed for the venture.
The fact that small factories, with
means so limited they have been
unable to employ the labor saving
machinery essential, in these days,
for prosecuting any enterprise of
considerable magnitude, have not
paid more than bare living for
their projectors, should not be taken
as an indication that the field is
not q profitable one under favorable
circumstances, with the appliances
which selve to reduce cost as we'll
as supply superior product.
We rope that the right spirit will
soon prevail. We do not doubt it,
if the efforts of our Board of Trade
receive a hearty support from the
people. 1t is doing a good work,
and some day will enlist the atten-
ton of those who are willing to sup
ply the one thing needful to set the
wheels of industry in motion-capi-
tai. When the machinery is well
under way, no one need doubt doubt
the thrift which will speedily follow.
