"A very fattering proposition from
the B. & 0. railway company has been
made Wilson Bros. to move their bust

This is the home Of the Monarch prepal-

bonus has been offered, Wilson Bros.
have not yet consented to accept. They
have built up one of the largest bust
nesses of the kind in the United States
and in homes from north to south, east
to west, Edgerton is advertised by the
distribution of the Monarch prepara-
tons, and for this reason our city would
be a great loser should they remove.
Wilson Bros. are both young men, en-
terprising, liberal in their expenditures
for Improvements of their own and for
the betterment of Edgerton and are the
kind of citizens in every respect that
any city might court. That the firm will
decide to remain here will meet the ap-
prevail of all.
The day is next Wednesday. Don't
