Will Push Stock Sale. i
In order that the sale of stock may
be closed rapidly, which it is believef
can be done, if theoretically pursued, II
is the intention to hire several men and
furnish them with teams to visit thd
different townships, take with them
the township agents and canvass tho
township thoroughly, the Retail Meri
chants Association to pay the cost. BY
this plan 1t is believed the stock can
be sold before the next meeting, on
May 10.
Division Of Stock. Al
1t is the intention to sell 500 shares
of, stock. OF this amount 800 shares
will be taken by townspeople and 200
by those outside of this city. Most of
the 300 shares have already been sub
scribed for in the city While by this
plan those in town will own three
ffths Of the stock, by the articles of
Incorporation those from the country
owning the other two-fifths of the
stock will have an equal representation
on the board. 1t is also the intention
to elect a president from some part of
the county outside of the city.
