lions Assured.

1t is but a short time since the Mon
tana Mining IL Investment company of
this city was organized, and yet it has
achieved d success that may be consid-
cred phenomenal. AS the name indi-
Gates, this is to be an investment com
pany, operating for the most part in
mining property. 1t is proposed to ac-
cumulate a large sun and invest the
same in good mining property in the Belt
mountain districts or elsewhere, where
good returns are promised. At present
there is no more inviting field for invest
ment in the world than in the mining
districts of Ncihart, Barker and Wolf
creek. Many fortunes have already been
made there and the camps are but in
their infancy. 1t only requires business
foresight, judicious investment end care
full management to insure success IN
mining operations in these districts, and
the character and standing of the men
at the head of the Montana Investment
company guarantees that onc Of these re-

Stock in this company is sold in
amounts from S2l up and may be paid
entire in cash or monthly instruments of
- a month. Agents are already at
work in hundreds of cities and towns and
in this way it is expected to distribute
the stock into the hands of many thous-
ands. The standing and integrity OF the
men in management is a full guaranty
that the funds of the company will be
judiciously invested and the interests of
the stockholders carefully guarded.

not only to buy mining property but to
work the same and thus bring in profits
and dividends to the stockholders. The
operations of the company will he con
Quoted as carefully and judiciously as il
the money was wholly that of the trus,
tees. The advantage of many joining in
an enterprise of this kind is that a large
capital is secured, enabling the company
to go forward with its operations on an
extensive scale.
The TRIBUNE is informed by Secretary
Curtiss that the success of the company
is already assured. The stock is being
taken more literally than was expected
and its plan and purpose is generally ap-
proved. Besides being, as we believe, a
profitable investment for the sharehold-
ers the company, with the ample means
at it's command, will do a good part to,
wards developing the great mineral re,
sources of this favored region.
