For the past two weeks tbree representatives of the Saltzmau company ot New York oity have been in conference with members of the Chamber of Commerce and plans have matured tboe far as to permit the announcement tbat it is almost a foregone conclusion that the factory will be located in our town. Tbe promoters of tbe undertaking require tbat tbe citizens of the borough enter into the project by erecting a suitable building for the manufacture ot shirts, whioh the Saltzman people will equip witb the latest improved machinery, enter into a lease for a given number of years and eventually become tbe owners. We understand tbat this will be fully met by tbe citizens and a committee appointed tor the purpose has en- tared into the purchase of a lot of ground on East Main street from tbe Lewis estate. It is estimated that it will require tbe ootlay of at least nine thousand dollars to erect tbe building, and all arrangements have been made to finance the undertaking. Tbe new enterprise will give employment to at least one hundred and fifty women and girls, and possibly more, ouce it is in fall operation.
