heard Of no concerted movement to

Sugar actory
is Progressing.

The sugar factory matter for Delta
is progressing all right, SO we are in
formed, and the future of the town as
a beet sugar manufacturing center is
so these informants say, assured.
Whether this is true from their partic-
ular viewpoint based upon any present
knowledge or not, it is, according TO
this papers views, true anyway. Delta
is future field for beet sugar fac
tory. 1t is legitimate field, where
capital should seek such investment,
without asking any reward in shape of
bonus. And some day in the not far
distant future, this will be proven.
Delta is just as certain of beet sugar
factory as she is to be continuously
prosperous little city. She has the
beet growing soil. the sugar creating
sunshine and the broad acres to supply
the biggest kind of factory. And do
you suppose that such location will
long be overlooked? Not on your life!
Surely, all should be done to hurry
matters that can. A sugar factory
would help US. We want to advance
and we wish to advance just as rapidly
as possible.

somewhere in transit and as soon as it
arrives will be pitched upon the vacant
lots on Main and Fifth streets, just OPP
posite the Commercial house. Evan
gelist Stout will give couple of lect-
ures as soon as the tent can be pre-
pared ror service. They feel sure OF
having the tent in order for Sunday,
April 26th. but if not the meetings will
be in the Christian church. A good in
terest has been maintained throughout
the meetings. There are several addi-
tions already made to the church and a
number of others expecting to identify
themselves with the church soon.

Should Plan Excursions

The INDEPENDENT suggests to the
Business Mems Association the pro-
priety of looking more closely after
excursions into the town and of making
occasions for them. Other towns seek
to secure every convention, as many
public meetings and gatherings as is
possible, and they help very materially.
Keep before the public all the time and
bring as many people in from the out
side as possible. If they are only here
for few hours they cannot fail to be
impressed. Excursions and public
gatherings form one of the best classes
of advertising town or city can have.
Active effort along these lines has
done much to make Denver the great
city it now is.
