Last week a successful business man from another section of the country came to Logan to investigate an industry in-dustry that certain Individuals aro trying hard to bring to tho front. He had scarcely stepped, from the train before a certain misguided Loganlto spoko ill of tho proposition which the visitor came to Investigate. During a single day no less than two or three other business men of this city spoko Illy of the proposition referred to. The visitor, however, a gentleman who has made a splendid financial success suc-cess by relying more on his own Judgment Judg-ment than that of others, was not unduly un-duly discouraged by this knocking and proceeded to Investigate tho propos-tlon propos-tlon referred to. Ho went over a portion por-tion of the situation carctully, was satisfied oven with that and put up a goodly sum of money. Tho gentleman took opportunity to say to tho promoters promo-ters that all their fancy representations could not have Induced him to Interest himself In their proposition had he H not been ablo to see for himself tho H tangible evidence that tho investment H would bo a good one. Beforo leaving Logan the visitor H took occasion to say that Logan Is not H likely to progress rapidly until Its H business men cither becomo broader H or arc replaced by men who arc H not knockers, by men who believe In H tho opportunities here, and who are H willing to help develop the resources jH that surround us.
