Tuesday night the books for the
new Building and loan Association
were opened at the store of D. NJ. XII.
mer, North Queen street, and quite
a nice sum was subscribed,
Ii is not known yet Just what the
capital stock will be but 1t is known
that II will not be less than 500, 900
and perhaps $4,000. Those inter.
ested In the new enterprise are assur.
ed of the former sum. and since the
subscriptions are coming In SO rapid
Iy it is believed that the latter amount
will be reached.
The sound business basis upon
which the Success and Eureka asso-
Citations have been conducted has in
spired confidence in the people in
building and oar associations, and
the system upon which this one Will
be conducted will ~eonclusively prove
that the men behind 1t are well quail
flied for that purpose.
The State Banking Commissioner
examines the building ana loan as
sociations every six months. and
files his report with hat department
of the state government. At an *
animation some time ago, the COM
missioner stated that the plan upon
which the two associations are being
conducted here Is the best in the
state, and that II every other assoc.
iatien would adopt it they would
prove far more successful. He also
found them to be in excellent condi-
ton. and at the conclusion OF the ex-
animation he complimented the man
agement very highly and secured a
copy of the constitution and bylaws
to present TO the management of sim
liar institutions in the western part
of the safe. Il.
1t was stated today by one Of the
stockholders that the intention was
to be ready for business by the first
of March, and that he saw no good
reason why such should not be done.
AS soon as the stock Is all subscribed
a charter will be applied for and an
organization effected.
