COTTON FACTORY FOR DAWSON.
An Important Probability In the
Near Future.

An Important Probability in the
Near Future.
A cotton factory is the next
thing on docket.
There Is probability that this
very important addition will be
made to Dawson's list of manu-,
factures.
At present there is not a loom
or a spindle in the city. The
News has occasionally alluded to
the fact that a cotton factory
would pay here, and the opinions
OF men we'll posted on the subject
have been quoted to prove it.
The News man has been inform
ed, on frst,class authority, that
some of the prominent capitalists
of Daw'on are seriously consider
ing the project of putting up a
factory here.
Figures prove that one properly
managed will pay handsomely on
money invested. Erery cotton
factory in the south is paying larg>
er dividends than aoy other enter
prise in successful operation.
Dawson is situated n as fac a
country as can be found. Her
cotton receipts are large, and by
cooperation she can easily take
the lead over competitors.
