YOUR DErRrMENr.

During the past few days circulars
have been scattered broadcast over
our city, urging our citizens u take
stock in foreign building associations,
claiming for them special advantages
over the local associations.
Every fair minded citizen, inclined
to help along his own town, should
consider Just these few facts. ;
lst.--Every organization requires
capital TO meet its running expenses.
2nd.--They require fair per cent.
on the amount invested.
Ord. foreign organizations they
must receive some benefit from every
local Office they establish.
Now, then, why not give our home
people the benefit Of all this. Youare
confronted with the statement by
these foreign associations that they
loan on less interest, and loan all the
money here that is deposited at this
point in the association. In the name
Of reason, is there any person in Mar
tinsburg crazy enough to believe such
statements : No doubt there are q
few, as it would seem almost impossi-
BILE for a town to thrive without some
disgruntled and misery people, who
neper do any good for their own com
munity. Its absurd and ridiculous
foreign building association sending
agents and canvassers here--provid-
ing extensive printed matter organic
zing a branch Office And yet some
of our citizens are so foolish as to be-
lieve a few capitalists spend all this
money and time just for pleasure.
How much Of their own money do
they invest here How much good
do they do onr city Useyour money
as bankers, and loan it back to You
on a per cent. You assume the debt
and secure them for three per cent. on
you orn money. Who gets the bene-
fit of this per cent. The foreign Off
cials, Of course.
Then, if this be the case, why not
give our home people the benefit Of
the per cent, who afterwards turn it
back into your pockets or to the adj
vantage Of the town. Gather up the
list Of names Of people who take up
with these institutions, and as gem
eral rule you will find that they have
been given a bonus for the use OF their
names, or have some special induce
ment; and that they are a class who
have never benefited anyone in the
community but themselves, 1t may
be they are paper shavers, well-to-do,
retired, setting themselves up as the
mark for poorer victims. We, say,
such is the case with six ont Of every
ten; Of course, some few exceptions.
Our city has number Of home insti
tutions, backed up by hard labor and
honest capital, together with men who
have made their marks as business
nnanciers, and your friends. Keep
your money athome. Help make your
osCn to'cn, not some other When
solicitors for such foreign associations
call on You, ask them the question as
to how much interest they have in
Martinsburg, and show them the door.
Down with them. Mean business and
