A plan Ins been proposed which I will out. Hue. and or which I bsk your careful consid eration. It Is te form a company te be called the " Lancaster Heard el Trade In dustrial Aid company," with a capital te say IW.oeo, with prlvllege of Increase, divided into shares of f 60 each The direc tors will be members of the Heard of Trade. The btislntss of the company will be te erect buildings and furnish steam (lower ler the accomedation el Industrial business enterprises and lease them for a terin el net less than Ilte years, at an annual rental of six percent, en the cost thereof and two and a half per cent, additional te cover Insurance, taxes, Ac ,thu property le lie left at the explra Hen el thu lcasu In a geed order aa It waa at the beginning, wear aud tear net excepted , the lessees te have the prlvllegeef purchasing the property at rest at any tluie during the continuance et the lease. if the unoccupied buildings aultable for manufacturing, such as the H saver street mill, Alaiidalu mill, belt works, tobacco warehouses, cau be utilized, the company migiii uccepi mem uu momeranuum, ana when put Inte use Issue stock te the owners thoreor In payment. It mlaht also be ex tended te aid manufacturing enterprises by subscribing te a certain proportion of their stock. If this general plan la properly di gested, It would accommedato meat el the casus that will be brought be'ore us. The lnttalments en the stock subscriptions would bu called In euly as required. A company exactly similar te this was or ganized ten years age at llrlstel, Pa. Their ninth annual statement waa entirely sat isfactory te all parties Interested. They had Invested fl25,0ue In four mills and a foundry, paid during the cntlre period et Its existence annual dividends of seven per cool, and had accu mulated a surplus el about (112,000. Their charge for rental la ten per cent, of the cost. The Investment Is based en geed security, added live Industrial establishments te the town of llrlstel, and ylelded a geed return te the stockholders, Wu should also have a trust company, en Hie plan or the Fidelity and ethers In Phlla adelphla, te aOerd facilities te these manu facturers who require long leans ofjlarge amounts ou geed security. Hut trust com panies are se useful and have been se enor mously profitable, that It is net necessary te dwell en this want It Is se generally rec ognized, nud its success Is se sure, that It will be speedily organized aa seen aa the proper pcople take the trouble te open asub asub scrlplleu. What tv 0 most need te give an Impetus le business here Is te educate ourselves and each ether, te have faith In manufactories, te encourage them and te invest In them; te smother selfishness and jealousy ; and te act heartily together for taie promotion of the preierlty of our city.
