I lie report of this committee, however, was submitted, and it was decided to hold another mooting ?m Monday night, September 2.'!. at the same place at S o'clock. In order (hat the people mav he in possession of the report of the special ' MMinitlee on this subject, t'iis report i- !ierewi;!i yivnt in I'nll. I ''is is an important mat tfr. it seems to ns, to this community, and we royret that more ol onr people arc not Inking interest in t'ae matter. We should think the recommendation of the 'ommittec as to the formation ol a joint stock cmpany is the proper Ih*?11 u in do. and it would he well if the several Iralcrnal organizations in the city would also adopt the suyyesIi"lis contained in the report, to mainlain wards for patients, who arc members ol tiiese several organizations and who may not be in financial position In undergo the expense "I hospital treatment.' The following is the report : Mr. V. Wright, I resident id ( hamber of Commerce. Vonr committee appointed to in\ est iynt e .t he subject of a hospital for Newberry ask leave to submit the following report: 1. We are of the opinion thai it is important and highly desirable that, a hospital be erected in the Town of Newberry: bill we do not think thai the town is at present able to found and maintain a public hospital. 2. It is onr estimate, based on in-' formation received from various sources. that a hospital with capacity for thirty CM) patients, and adequate lor onr present needs, could he erect-! ('(1 :'l :1 cost rallyiuy from $7,000 to $10,000, an?I equipped at a cost rallying from $1,000 to $.'1,000. This estimate includes heating outfit, water-1 works, lights, and electric bells. The I cost of equipment can be reduced to j i< minimum by the cooperation of our physicians. I. I lie minimum cost of maintain* my and operating the hospital would probably be in the neighborhood of $- "'00 a .vonr. Bui if the institution is inanayed in such a way as to commend it |o our physicians and their patients, this cost will be largely met by Hie fees of private patients; and we are confident that the local churches and fraternal organizations can be induced lt? maintain wards for charity patients. A hospital in successful operation and enjoying the confidence ,,f the community ought soon to become virtually self-supporting. k We are of- the opinion thai it ought to be practicable to erecf a hospital by the formation of a join: stock company for the purpose. We suggest thai the capital slock should be $1.'1.000, divided into six hundred C000) shares of the par value of $25.00 each, and that the slock should be disti ihnled throughout the county as widely as possible, so as to enlist the largest possible interest. This stock should not be expected to pay dividends in the near future, but should be subscribed out of a spirit of bene\olence by those who are willing to make contributions for the relief of the suffering. 5. We recommend that a committee be appointed at once l? serve as corpoialors and fake the nccessarv steps l?> organize a joint slock company,! lor Ine erection and maintenance of ;> hospital, with a capital stock of $15.. i n"0 divided into six hundred f(IOO) ,'1' 'be par value of $25.00 ' nu. and Inat all d"(ai|s as to maua.emont and maintenance await the adoption of the by-laws of the company. Respect fully submit ted, Coo. r,. Cromer, Chairman Commit toe. Sept. 10, 1007. Silver Street Warehouse Co. I he Silver Street Warehouse Company was orga ji/.ed on Wednesday. The capital stock of $5,000 was subscribed and the following directors wero elected: II. 0. Long, B. M. Havird and D. L. Ham, The board elected Mr. H. O.
