Galena Promoter Calls for Unity in Mining Development
C C Mathey urges Galena residents to set aside petty jealousies and back a mining development effort. He says a strong district mine would raise property values and spur business, citing Platteville and Dubuque as models. The piece notes opposition from several men on the stock committee and mentions the Galena Tron Works Co paying about 5000 monthly for machinery use in the district. Interment for Mrs. William Sinecox followed later at Greenwood.
