DAVID BEAN, Propriotor, This destroys the argument someâ€" times heard that, as they employ only gitls, they do not benefit many familâ€" fes. Many of the girls do, in reality supports families during a portion of the year. Perhaps & surfeit of auch factories wou!d not be the best thing for a town but a limited number is an inestimable boon, and it is surprising that the business men on King St who enjoy the fortnightly cash rakoâ€"of which must average over $1000 a week do not raise their voicos in protest against tho coercion of the concern which is the channel through which the money comes. Another argument occasionally heard is that no thanks is due the W G & R Co for the employâ€" ‘ ment they give because that is a necâ€" essity to their business and they make money by it. But that argument apâ€" plies with equal force to evory other manufactory in Berlin. Why then ofâ€" fer inducements to any firm or attempt to conciliate them? ‘The argument is scarcely less nonsensical than it is suicidal to the town‘s interests. The business men should wake up and sce that no stone is left untuined to obâ€" viate any unnecessary offence to the W G & R Co. While public sentiment is being steadily aroused to the danger of the town acting with precipitate harshn«ss toward the W G & R Co., there is an apathy among a section of the merchâ€" auts which, to put it on no higher grounds than those of self does their shrewdness no credit. There is no doubt that the firm has inducements to go elsewhere and that undue rigor on the part of the town may result in the loss of an industry which is of great benefit to the merchants. One King St merchant says that he believes the presence of this firm brings to bis store $10,000 a year in cash. Howâ€" ever that may be, it is a fact that over $3,000 is carried away from the factory every other Tuesday evening and as the stores are kept open on that partâ€" lcular eveniog it is safe to say that the dry goods merchants lock up in thier vaults a good srug sum which afow hours before stood to the credit of the W G & R Co. The grocer too gets his share, for there are many families that could nbt subsist during the winter were it not for the money earned by the daughters. RETAILERSAND THE W.G. & R. CO. The binder twine {industry bas come in for considerable attention from the Conserrative press during the past three years, It was from the first marked out as one which would meet with ccrtain rain owing to the removal of the whole duty, the Government having in this instance made the widâ€" est possible departure from the proâ€" tective principle. ‘Their predictions as to the fate of this industry seem to‘ be as untrue as in the case of all others and when, therefore, a few days ago the Farmers‘ Binder Twine Co., of Brantford declared a dividend of one hundred per cent. on the year‘s busiâ€" ness, the prophets of cvil were considâ€" erably taken back. Mr. Fulton, of Montreal, President of the Consumers‘ Cordage Co., jamped into the breach however, and declared that the phenoâ€" ‘ menal dividend was obtained by sellâ€" ing raw material or fbre. ‘This stateâ€" ment. has now been flatly denied by Mr. Stratford,manager of the Far mers‘ Co., who says the dividend was legiâ€" timately earned. These are his words: *"The whole of this statement is maliâ€" cious and untrue. I am prepared to make affidavit that not & single pound of fibre in my management of seven years was over resold by this company; that our mill was closed down temporâ€" arily for annual repairs when raw maâ€" terial was actually exhausted or waitâ€" ing avrival of what is termed ‘distant bought fibre‘; that during the harvest of 1898, when we were marketing our entire output of twine at 7 1â€"4c per pound, and there was almost a twine famine staring the farmers of this country in the face, I endeavored to negotiate with the Consumers‘ Cordâ€" age Company to run or operate that company‘s silent factory at Brantford, offering to supply fibre, coal and hands, of which we had an abundance, and so produce, independent of our own capaâ€" city, a further large percentage of twine for the harvest of 1898. This, however, was appareutly impcssible to bring about. Mr. Stratford furtheâ€" says that his factory is running to it« fulleat capacity and will scarcelr \â€" able to supply twine for the harrest of ‘The directors of the Huron €2.
