Real Estate
COLLECTIONS
Notary Public

Procrastination is the thief of
time; it has robbed many a man
of owning a home.
One good investment beats a
life time of labor. Banks may
fail; stocks and bonds often prove
worthless and the best securities
sometimes depreciate in value.
Good land is the safest and sur
est investment on earth; it can
not be stolen; it won't burn up;
it will never be worthless; it will
always be wanted.
Let us aid you in making Sc
lection of cheap land, or a home
in town.

Bring Another Factory Here.
Mayor Scherff 10 Advised of Pro-
ject- Gives Letter to Commercial
Club officers.

Mayor Louis Scherff received q
communication Monday, from the In
ternational Anuto League with head
quarters at Buffalo, New York
asking for information concerning the
maItter of locating a manufacturing
plant in this city.
The communication is signed by r
c. Bidwell, secretary. 1t asks for
proposals for tract of land con-
tanning six to ten acres, the purchase
price not to exceed $1,000 per acre.
In other words the company wants
TO know If Marion is willing to pay
the sum of $4,000 in order to have
IL locate here.
The communication states that the
company expects to erect one Of the
largest tire manufacturing plants IL
the United States. Water supply ant
good shipping facilities are named a'
the principal necessities Of the loca
tion.
We have net submitteed to the tyr
amy OF the rIhber trusts and are
determined never to do So writes
the company. The firm claims to bC
incorporated at $4,000 and is now EN-
ploying large force of men at Buf
falo.
The communication was turned ov
er to the leaders OF the Commercial
club who will Immediately investi
gate the proposition. Owing to the
fact that Marion has one automb.
bile proposition now under way, It Is
probable that il could do little for the
tire manufacturers.

proposition open to the cnsldera
zion of cities today. The efforts
OF Elkhart, Jackson and other cit
les, TO procure them Is sufficient
evidence of this fact. II The
Overland companies locate here,
they will employ one thousand men
at least, and The American com
pany will employ at least three
hundred more. Personally, l con-
"'der them worth $2O0,O00-of bon
us. Manion, because Of peculiar
conditions, can secure them COM
paratively for very little. Haste is
the watchword."
w. II. SCHAFF'NER.
''T wish to state that was very
much surprised to see the extensive
business that The Overland Auto
mobile people were doing. They
employ more people than any in
dustry in Mhhion at the present
time, and the various places that
they are compelled to use, were
truly hives of industry.
"If we can Iget them to come to
Marion we will have the good
hines of before the panic immedia
tely, and Manionis future will be
assured"
b. G1. KLETNNTAIBR.
"After visiting the four shops OF
this company. all located dn diff
ferent parts of the city, can read
fly see why they should and mus;
have other quarters.
"The location Of these shops here
will certainly mean wonderful
growth to Marion, but it will also
require some great hutsling. In
is awakening to the fact
that they are about to lose this
industry and do not believe we
will have one day of grace to ac
cept the proposition"
GEORGE B. CHRISTIAN:
TMy recent visit to Indianapolis
TO inspect The Overland Automo-
bile works has resulted in my firm
conviction that ir the city of
Marion can secure tlEs industry
that the results obtained thereby
will be OF inestimable value. This
company Is now em-
ploying approximately 300 men with
a weekly payroll of $4,000. If the
plant was moved TO Marion 1t would
mean the employment of 1900 men
at the beginning, and am con-
fident in mind to believe, that the
future or this organization is so
bright that in a short time 1000
men would be employed. II is
needless for me to Iso into details
as to the benefits that would be
derived to our citizens by the an-
Atallaton OF such plant IN our
midst"
Citizens IL believe that the estao-
lishment of The Overland Automo-
bile Co., in our city will mean the
increase of population to 10000 in
side of FIVE years. 1t will mean the
of ait least 1900 men
at the end of that time. I, In COM
pany with mime bnsines men, visited
tho plant yesterday at Indianapolis.

"a delegation of men represent

a free site and cash bonus. Several
other propositions of removal are all
so on file at the cmpany's office, but
according to a statement given out
today, mo action will be taken at the

that The Overland plant would be
removed from indianapolis have been
current for sometime, and to these
officials OF the company give some
