The stock Of lhc Anderson Building and
Loan Association has been fully taken, aud
the lapse Of the requisite time to obtain the
charter is the only thing that prevents the
active work of the company. The stock is
already very active, some of it having been
sold at 81 per share, and some as high as
$4.00 per share, even before the charter was
applied for or dollar had been paid on the
stock. Nothing has yet been paid in, but
the stock, or rather the right to the stock,
is commanding about four dollars per share
Of $4,000. This shows great confidence In
the success of the Association. There is
no doubt that the Company could easily
double the maximum amount of their
stock if they were willing to do So. The
Constitution and Bylaws, under which it
is proposed to operate the Association,
subject, of course, 10 the will of the stock
holders, is published OH our fourth page in
this issue.
Our people should learn to patronize
home industries and thereby build up the
establishment Of oil kinds of small manu-
factories. For instance, Messrs. Reed &
Stephens have buggy and wagon factory
here, at which the best and neatest work
can be obtained ut prices lower than simi-
lar work can be bought from the Western
and Northern factories. They do not
build the inferior buggics which arc sold at
such low prices from Western factories,
because their reputation will not permit
them to do SO, and because there is more
money i'll repairing the Western work than
in putting up similar vehicles. They keep
n large force of skilled labor constantly at
work, and are doing prosperous and
growing business. If our people will only
give them call before investing in any
kind of vehicle, they can soon see that it
Is to their interest to patronize this home
industry. These gentlemen are thoroughly
reliable and progressive. They arc gradu-
ally enlarging their buildings and capacity
for work. They now have the largest fac |
tory in The upper part Of the State except |
Greenvilles, and are well prepared to CON-
pete with it in both quality and price of |
work.
