THE MILL LOCATION.
Recommends Location Near
BeIden's Dairy.

The executive committee of the
board of trade are holding a meet
ing this afternoon to receive the re-
port of the special committee ap-
pointed to investigate the matter of
a location for the Standish & Matt cop
per reduction plant. The committee
yesterday afternoon decided to recon-
mend a site in the vicinity of Belden's
dairy farm, a short distance north OF
dhe city bridge over the Gallina>.
The committee estimated that about
5000 feet of lumber would be requir-
ed 10 erect a suitable building. Other
ing a building we're secured, n at
the meeting this afternoon, a full re-
port was made to the board. While
the deliberations of the board had not
been finished, when The Optic went
to press, it is understood, the body is
favorable to accepting the report of
the committee in practically %unchang-
ed form. All the members of the
executive committee, and there was a
full representation in the Office of the
secretary, Attorney Geo. p. Money,
! are anxious that the city secure the
plant. There seems 10y to be little
doubt, but the industry will be estab-
lished in Sc city in a very short time.
The location chosen is satisfactory
| both to the east n west side men,
bers of the special committee and it
is believed, there will be no objec-
| ton from either section of the city.
| The mill men are also satisfied with
the proposition to establish the mill
there instead of in the old a barns.
The location proposed can be secured
upon fairly reasonable terms.
