The proposed tin plate industry,
which the Scranton board of trade has
endorsed, can be secGred for West
Scranton If sufficient interest Is mani
tested in the concern. 1t Is under
stood that two options have beer Sc
cured on land in the Keyser Valley
section. one from the Delaware, Lack
awanna and Western company ana
one from John II. Farr. The capital
stock of the company will be fixed at
100000 and $4,000 OF this will be sub
scribed by the promoter, l.. X. Tor
bet of Chicago, and Mr.. Patton, his
manager
The remainder of the capital stock
will be raised by popular subscription
from one share up, giving the small
investor an equal chance with the
capitaist.\ OF the amount to be raised
S165O00 will be expended in building
the plant and purchasing machinery
and $35 600 will be used as working
capital. The industry will employ
about 400 men and, as there is .'OthinS
Of its kind within Il radius of several
hundred miles, there is little doubt ir
the minds of the promoters that the
plant will be a success from the start.
The superior advantages Of West
Scranton as an industrial center have
been referred to on many occasions,
ana if the moncycG men of this side
are anxious to boom it. here is an eX-
cellent opportunity. The West Side
board of trade has beer clamoring
for industries for several years, but
the majority of the members are not
capitalists and, while many Of them
may be sufficiently interested in tin
plate industry to subscribe for a few
shares of stock it will require much
more money than can be raised in the
local board of trade to insure the in
dustry.
The proposed sites are on the line
of the Delaware, Lackawanna and
Western railroad and within easy
reach of either the Washburn, Lafay-
cite or North Main avenue street car
lines. The land is also in close proX-
unity to the plots recently opened by
:he West Park Land company and
Mr.. Farr, and would make an ideal
place for such an industry as the tin
plate plant.
II is to be hoped that the people of
means residing on this side will be-
come sufficiently interested in the en-
terprise to secure it, and thus give
