We had not intended to say a word
about the wagon mandatory now un-
der contemplation at this place until
the last dollars worth of stock had
been subscribed and the company or
ganized. If we succeed it is all right;
but if we fail, we preferred the failure
to be known only at home. But our
neighbor, the New Era, in this weeks
issue says, "Some ST., 900 of stock has
already been taken, and as soon as
$40, 900 is raised, preparations for the
work will be commenced" We hope
our neighbor is correct in his statement
as to the amount already taken, and
that the balance may be taken soon,
and that we may not have to report a
failure. The enterprise is being started,
if started at all, by number of our
best business men, who have ample
means and will add to its capital as
needed if the enterprise proves to be a
success. We shall be glad to see the
company organized and begin work.

any one for information concerning her

he had lived at Seligman, Mo-, for
some time. As he has not been heard
from in so long it is feared that he is

favor by copying.
