factory is a (petition that it is just as
well to say very little about till we know
where we are at. Lest week the people
of the town interested in the bonds, went
into the Union Bank and covered every
dollar due—a total of something like
$100,000. Tbe town has every reason to
be proud of the fact ; it is a question if
another town in Western Ontario aonld
make soon a showing. That the faotory
will go on there is not a doubt, but the
company will have to be re organized,
and the business planed on a different
beefs, and the faotory pot under the
control of practical moo. The directors
of the past year did everything possible
to make it a success. They have appar-
ently failed, through no fault of theirs, it
is unanimously agreed, and now they are
anxious, and were last year too, that
others eboald assume control.—Wiarton
