TTI AT BOOM.
Elmtou I’eople:
I notice an inquiry In ymtr last issue
in reference to the “BiackviKe Cotton
Mill Boom.” I should surmise that it
had followed the path pursued by tbe^
other booms we. l.fivo bad on the same
subject. It would, no doubt, be of in.—"
mouse’ benefit pt onr town . and sur-
roundThg counlry to luive a mill In.-re.
but it is always well to count the cost
before attempting to build, so the gmvd
book infotpis ii*. I jffdgo that our
mVrclumts and other* are fust about
able to prosecute Hn ir bu-iuel* sue*
cc*sfully, at pre»cnt, without assuming
additional obligations. 1 tiave not the
lea*! doubt that every dollar required
i to.erect and equip a cotton mitt’would
bo subscribed bore In thirty days if the
money was available.
It costs a good deal of money to build
a siultable structure and equip it with
a l necessary . machinery. There are,
doubtless, many persona who moihi
take a few shares each if an organized
effort w ere made in the right direction.
But it must bii the effort of the manv
and not the few if we lioja* to attain to
so desirable an end. When nil has
been done in that hue that can be ac-
e*nipll*hed here, then an effort should
he made to solicit subset iptions tostort
elsewhere.
Without well matured (dan* i>er«lit-
entiy prosecuted every eifotf will sure-
| ly be obly a 'Loom.”
