Dixon’s Dement Drives Dixon Power to Boost Manufacturing

The article profiles Col. Dement in Dixon Illinois, detailing his control of 42 percent of Rock River power, a new three story stone plant producing tow bagging for 3000 yards daily and employing 100 workers at high pay. It notes other factories and lands he owns or plans, and urges eastern capital to fund Dixon’s industrial growth to rival Lowell. Dr. Sam’s Woop closes commentary.
