Opera House, March II.
Through the efforts of our enterprise
ing citizen, J. l.. Rea, Messrs. Elsword
and McCOrmac, representing the
"Adamant Manufacturing Company
of America" with headquarters at
Minneapolis, uinn., spent two days
in our city last week prospecting for
location for one of their plants. At
present they have no distributing
point for their goods In the Southwest
nearer than st. Louis, and as their
output amounts to thousands of car
loads annually they desire a plant
nearer their southwestern demand.
They were very much pleased with
Van Barren. the quantity of sand, etc.,
but made no proposition rs yet, as
they have already proposition from
Fort Smith. In reference to this mat
may hereafter he brought before the
city. 1t is well to call the attention OF
our people to the fact that at present
we are unable to make offers OF lands
In sufficient quantity accessible to all
railroad lines. Our neighbors across
the river have several hundred acres
of land Immediately adjoining both
roads, that are owned by men interest
ed in the upbuilding and improve
ment of the town, and these lands
can always be obtained ut q reasona-
BILE price for any enterprise This is q
matter that the attention Of the Board
of Trade should be called to at once
and it possib g remedied.-Argus.
