A NEW ENTERPRISE. w, EB. Walton Discusses the Subject of Manuiactories for Butier. A TANGABLE PROPOSITION: Butter Mo. Apris 17th, 783. To the business men and property soners of Buller. Much has been said and published as to the importance of having Man- ufacturies in Butler, but as yet neth- ing has been done. All adenit there js a good opening for an Agricultur- 4] Implement Manutactory in Butler, and that if successfully operated would be of incalculable benefit to every business interests and would secure the permanent prosperity of this city. Butler issituated in the heart of an agnicul.ural country interior to nene andI doubt if there is any other territoay of same size in the west that operates and uses up more farm ma- chinery than our farmers do within a radius of one hundred miles of But- ler. That here isthe great market place for farm Implements is attested by the tact that hundreds of thousands ot dollars are now and for years have been anually drawn frem us and sent to manufacturers in other States. Why longer allow this constant drain? We have an abundance of coal and timber sn eurcounty. The great Iron Mountain 1s in our state.

Indeed the proba- bilities are that they ceuld be had cheaper, they could live here with their tamilies cheaper than elsewhere for on account ef the richness of our soil, no country produces the sub- stantial necessaries et life to wit: corn, wheat, beef, pork, potatoesete., in such abundance and at such lew figures as we dohere. Besides, we have excellent tree scheols, good so— ciety a healthy locality and homes within the reach of all. [have caretully considered Manufacturing question and have arrived at the conclusien that the business can be established here and with good management pay fair div- idends to stockhollers and be of great benefit to every business man and property owner in Butler. My plan would be to form astock com- pany, make the cash capital say $25.000 that is 250 shares of $100, each. ‘The steck should be taken by the business men and preperty ewn— ersin Butler and the greater the number of stockholders the better as each will work for his ows interest and thus the business when establish- this ed would have the combined influ- ence of many instead of a tew. Steckholders should elect from their number say three or four of the hese and most successful business men as managers, they to precure grounds, erect buildings, Buy ma- tenal and machinery, employ work- men and have tull contrel and agement ef the business. Thaveno money to give away but am willing to go into a company of this kind, fully believing that it would prove te be a paying invest- ment to stockholders and be of more lasting benefit to the city than even two more railroads. Business men and property ow ners can not over estimate the benefits they would de- nve. man- twe build will coastantly employ twe or three hundred me- } chanics. These men would hve | here with their families. Their | wages would be paid them every | Saturday night and this money | would be spent here entering into | every artery of trade and materially ! assisting ia branding every Butler We can in a year upa business that or | ship for E. J. Jone The grading down of the hill at Grand river bridge between Altona and Dayton is progressing finely, under the supervision of DS. Whitteridge. This was perhaps one of the very werst crossings in the county, and has been 2 terror to the people who have been compelled to cross there. We understand Mr. Whitteridge is domg his work well and when completed wil! cost the county some where in the neighbor- hoed ef five hundred dollars, if we are not mistaken. It is money well and judiciously spent however, and one and all interested will thank the court for having it done. The repairs on Miami bridge west ot Butler kave been completed as well as the widing aad grading down of the approaches. We are inform- ed that it is a mest excellent jeb of work and reflects credit on the con- tractors. It 1s represented as being one of the best crossings now in the county. This will certainly be good news to the general public,and especially those who have occasion to cress often with the:r loaded wag- ons. There is nothing that will ad- vertise a ceunty mere than good roads and bridges. Let us have mere ot them j Monday of last week County Sur- veyor M. L.
