Another Factory Possibility.
The two proprietors of a Chicago manufacturing establishment are looking over Rensselaer today, with a possible view of moving their business here. They make parlor easels, screens, music racks, white enameled toy furniture, nickel and penny slot machines, telephone cabinets etc. They ask for 2 or 3 acres of ground and a bonus of $15,000, and will guarantee to employ 75 men the first 6 months, 100 by end of a year, and 150 thereafter. Also guarantee to run at least 5 years.
