HUNTINGTON. This important commercial and manufacturing city of 6000 inhabitants, the couniy seat of Hunt- ington county, is located on the Wabash river, and C & A and W St L & P R Rys, 118 miles from Toledo, 105 from Indiana- polis, and 318 from St. Louis.
This for its size is the most progressive city in Northern Indiana, and has great natural wealth, consisting of immense . limestone deposits, from which is manufac- tured a superior quality of lime; in this branch over 300 hands are employed. The C & A Ry Co have erected large repair shops and round house here, which give employment to a large number of hands. Each year brings about additions to the established manufactories here, and new factories are constantly being opened. The chief industries in manufacture now com- prise 2 flour mills, pump factory, brewery, stave works, 4 saw mills, 3 foundries, 3 planing mills, cooper shop, flax bagging factory, 2 bentwood works, handle factory, 2 furniture factories, heading factory, plow works and several lime kilns. Several ex- tensive grain elevators are in operation. The grain trade here has become one of great importance.
Huntington was settled in 1833 by Gen John Tipton, and was formerly known as Flint Springs. It is to-day a handsome town supplied with all mod- ern conveniences, such as gas and water works, a well-equipped fire depart- ment, fine opera house with a seating ca- pacity of 1,000, 2 graded school buildings, several churches, excellent county build- ings, substantial business blocks, 3 hotels and 2 banks. The press of Huntington is above the average, including the following papers : Evening Herald and News, issued
