Miner Hopeful Plan Spurs Woollen Venture in St Arnaud
An unsigned letter to the editor urges St Arnaud residents to back a woollen goods factory, arguing it could revive the local economy and employment. The writer cites successful mills in Castlemaine and Ballarat, proposes forming a company with shares at 10 and initial capital to start production, and calls for local canvassing to gauge interest. The piece laments mining downturns and expresses optimism a woollen venture would restore prosperity.
