Will it iay the citizens of Middle
burg to donate ten acres of land and
$75,000 to a company who will
guarantee to erect a building 520x
453 feet costing $150,000 and to
employ at least 600 men for 5 years?
1 here may be 800 or 1000 men em
ployed, but the question is if COO
urc guiunuictx win ik pay uou will
. ...in . .li
the money be raised? This is
business proposition and any one
can sec what it means to Miduleburg.
If an industrial concern would
come to Middleburg and agree to
erect a $150,000 building and em
ploy at least 600 men for 5 years
guaranteed, would thorn who are
able donate 10 acres of laud and
$75,000? This would necewitate
the building of 400 or 450 new
dwelling houses and at least 60 new
business houses for the use of tits
employees of the new concern alone.
Ahuodred carpenters will have work
for the next' two years. la this
