On another page appears .?? news

talked of liospltal for Lnurcns. a

hut about which no definite plans
have been formulated. Now, there
Is something tangible, definite, and
upon wl.deIt to act.
Our people all i;mi\\ I he noble ??!
forts made by the King's Daughters
ami of the neu I sum of money raised
by them lor Ihe erection of a hospital;
how they have lolled and rested m>i
from their labors. Their efforts
were certain of success?-in time; bill
the great need of the proposed in tl
union so presses itself upon us (hut
the necessity of assisting the King's
Daughters in this work becomes ap
parent. They are the original movers
in the matter ami to them great praise
should he ascribed ami l?de? I Is, by
all who are acquainted with the facts.
it is now proposed to form a slock
company, buy the Holmes property
On Wast Main street and launch a
business enterprise making h paving

b< the besl possible and wisest slop
from a business standpoint, we ar<
hot prepared to say. The physicians
of Lauren., unanimously recommend
the selection of this spot as a situ and
the building for n hospital: ihe>
should know whereof they speak, and
we have confidence in their judgment.
Anyhow, the proposition i; before the
people and they are at liberty to ac
cept or reject it.
As stated, the promoters mean it.
.?like the hospital a paying liistiiu
tlon: thai is possible, arid should be.
It should declare dividends, and will
it wisely managed. Those who sub
scribe for stock should not do si
wholly with an idea of "giving" foi
charity's Rake. Tin enterprise i
for the public good, true; but it can
he made a paying enterprise.
We hope the King's .Daughters will
buy as many shares of stock as (heir
funds will pet mil: that the cotton
mills of the city will subscribe; Ilia)
the railroad companies will invest;
that the Daughters ol the Confeder
acy win become stockholders ami
maintain a veterans' ward: and thai
all public spirited citizens, who have
Ihe community's good at heart will
talk it up. encourage the move and
Mibfrtcrlbe foi stock.
