All shares have been subscribed and 5 /Irtlloii 4-l-wi aor\ifol of/vr?L' Vi*i?2 6 C%UIJ UV/liai VI luv va|'u<ti oivvn uuc been paid in. At the meeting all stockholders were represented either in person or by proxy. The followlowing officers were elected: J R Tobias, president; A H Williams,!^ vice president; J E Branson, secre- || tary and treasurer; W L Bass, so- ( licitor. The corporation will open i' np for business as soon as its build-U| ing is completed. The contractor! promises to turn o\er to the company the house by June the 5th. A full and complete line of hardware, sutler)*, farming implements, china, will be carried. With plenty of capital, experienced officers, good . situation and excellent building, we see no reason why the undertaking will not succeed and we areconvinc- i ?d that its prosperity will be so prolounced that it will be not only satisfactory to its promoters but will ead to the establishment of other wuilar enterprises. Our town is epresented on the board of directors n the person of J A Green. The ?act that every dollar of stock was aken within an hour after the books were opened indicates the confidence Df moneyed men in the enterprise. In another column appears a Qo;iee that books of subscription to ;he capital stock of Bank of Lake 2ity will be opened on next Friday. iVe are informed v.hat about ?23,000 worth of stock was spoken or before 10 o'clock Tuesday morn- ; ng.
