MINERAL POINTS BIG BOOM.
The Establishment of Pulp and Paper
Mills in this City Fixed beyond
Peradyenture.
The Company Fully Organized, with
a Capital Stock of S1OO,000.00.

Capital Stock of S10O,000.00.
The Buildings to be Erected at Very
Early Day.
1t gives The Democrat unbounded
pleasure to announce the fact of the
organization of the Mineral Point
Linen Fiber company, for the manu-
facture of pulp and paper. A meet
ing Of the eighteen stockholders of
which the company is composed, was
held on Saturday evening last at the
Office of Spensley & McIlhon. Twenty
per cent. of the capital stock of
100000, having been paid in, and
the company duly Incorporated &C
cording to the laws of the state, a
board of directors were elected as
follows:
Calvert Spensley, w. A. Jones
Richard Kennedy, Phil Allen, Jr.,
and Guy p. Cobb.
The board have not yet elected their
president, but will do so at their next
meeting.
1t is understood that a site will be
Immediately selected, and purchased,
and that work on the buildings will
be commenced within the next ten
or twelve days.
Mr. Tower, the expert pulp and
paper manufacturer, who has been
here for several weeks past, will
superintend the construction of the
mills, and have them running as soon
as possible.
There can be no doubt that the
establishment of these mills will
prove a great boom for Mineral Point.
The stockholders have given prac-
teal evidence If their faith in the
enterprise by backing it with the
necessary capital, and have thereby
done their full share to make Mineral
a live, progressive city.
Every citizen should be alive to the
opportunity that is before him. There
Is no doubt but our boom is now on,
and that if rightly encouraged, it
can and will be made permanent.
The Democrat has full faith i'll
the city's steady growth and future
prosperity. The dwellings that have
recently been built to let to tenants
have so far been an absolute necessity,
and there is still demand for houses
OF this character But there is dan
ger of expecting too much in some
directions, and The Democrat would
venture to mildly suggest that those
who have money to invest will do
well to invest it in some industries
land there are many besides wooden
mills, paper mills and zinc furnaces)
that will prove self sustaining, and
help forward the growth of the city,
rather than altogether in buildings,
the prohtableness of the expenditure
for which depends upon the city's
advancement as manufacturing
center.
The benefit of the work that has
been done in bringing here new
industries, is manifest on every hand,
and Mineral Points present building
boom-with the sound of saw, ham
mer and chisel on nearly every street
and rorner.-has resulted directly and
indirectly from the commendable
efforts so far put forth in the direc-
lions indicated. Let the good work
go forward, and in the near future
electric lights, water works, new opera
house, and other conveniences and
comforts will be added TO our pros
porous and progressive old city.
