CHANCE FOR A FACTORY.
TOR OF THE CALIFORNIAN =

EDITOR OF THE CALIFORNIAN
Please permit me space in your val
liable paper, so as to present to your
kind readers a few facts in regard to
piece of land at the upper end of
Railroad street. This piece of land
is between Geo. P Moore's residence
and Louis Gingras & Sons new
paint store and shop. 1t is very
queer that our enterprising citizens
don't brace up and put a manufact-
uring industry of some kind on this
piece OF land, which is one of the best
fitted for that purpose in the state.
1t is splendidly located, including side
tracks. Messrs. Dupont & Dutile,
o. w. Orcutt and Louis Gingras &
Son have started the line of march
lately by erecting shops and a store
adjoining the lot above mentioned.
Now, why don't some Of our good,
enterprising men take hold of this
matter and build a factory on this
lot and follow the line of march with
the rest and not stay behind all the
time. Many men have visited this
lot in the past few years with the
intention ofbuilding something there.
Why don't these persons brace up
and build the factory now?
