EDITOR CLARION Il am glad to see
one Of our citizens advocating new in
dustry for our town through tho columns
of your paper. But PUsH'S idea of a start
| think n little to large. You must let
stockholders have little idea of profits
before vo,. can cXvect them to venture too
far Large streams from little fountains
flow. Tall oaks from little acorns grow
Therefore | advocate Il small beginning
and increase with the demand. We have
several buildings here standing almost
idle which | suppose could We rented very
reasonable. there is also an engine and
boiler that is not in use now the renting
ci these for year or two would save a
nGtiittie sum 10 start with. am favor
able to plsiFs dea of stock paid up in
monthly contributions, for many men may
be fully able to take stock but cannot
spare the money all at once. We have
capital here that is not seen when enter
prise holiS ont her hand. II success
should come these hrncfactors in disguise
shonlJ he carefully noted down. The
time is here TO 70 to work to get stock
The Canning house has proved success
for the renter i, buying up the stock and
| have heard those who sold say they
were ready To- invest in some other enter
prise, | think the editor of the CLARION
,houlI consult with those who have eX-
pressed Themselves favorable to the enter
prise and have them agree 10 name time
for 4 meeting to bc called and a committee
anpointci to solicit stock if the sense Of
IN, meeting ius,itics il.
am Yours, etc. ENTERPRISE.
