there is latent interest in the mar- Watsons ket. but which holders are not dis- posed to encourage at today's levels. Indications are not want- Ing that Local Utilities, and other Local Companies, will be able to show good results for the curren year's working. These will make the local tax gatherers mouths water, but the episode of the bear- er of the pitcher, who journeyed once too often to the well, should be borne in mind. The fact is, Capital fears this episode may not be sumclently borne in mind, and in consequence remains in the un- happy state mentioned two week's ago. Shall it take a chance, spread. ing its interests here and else where, or beat it altogether?
