THE FORT PAYNE SALE.
The Property Costs the Purchaser only
Sixty Thousand Net

The article in yesterdays PRESS gave
the idea that the sale of the Fort Payne
Coal and Iron Co.'s property was for
$50, 900, and the mortgage. The sale was
to satisfy the mortgage, and ZOO
represents the whole cost to the purchas-
er. After the receivers certificates and
costs are paid any residue may be applied
to payment of the first mortgage per
cent. bonds, of which about $500, 600 are
out, some of which are held in this vi
entity. But it is probable that very
little will be left for the bonds, which
must be practically of little value.

BARRED OUT.
The Reason Why the Food Products of
One Portland Manufacturer Are Not On
Exhibition at City Hall

To the Editor Of the Press:
Several weeks since we were invited to
approve of Food and Health exposition
in the City of Portland, We asked for
information in relation to it's objects,
and requesting the privilege Of making
an exhibit of our products, as we
assumed other manufacturers of similar
lines of food products in our city had
done.
g After this request on our part we were
invited to display throughout our sales
room and factory, posters, advertising
the exposition. The reply to our request
for space was substantially as follows:
Exclusive privilege for the exposition of
confectionery Zone of our most important
branches) has been granted to another
concern" Upon investigation we learned
that a Boston manufacturer had the
right to exhibit to the exclusion of all
others, whereupon we declined to APP
prove of an exhibition which the public
would undoubtedly assume was insti-
tuted for the purpose of COM
pairing the merits of food products
of competing manufacturers in the
same lines. In fact it now seems
to us that this $50 called) Exposition
Company did not intend to give Port
land manufacturers an opportunity to
make any exhibits of their products, as
we learn that several other local manu-
facturers of similar products were not
invited to participate in this exposition.
This statement is made in Justice to
ourselves and as an explanation to our
citizens and our patrons. as to why one
of the largest manufacturing concerns in
New England of biscuits, bread, con-
fectionery, bonbons, chocolates and
other food products is not an exhibitor
as they desired to- be.
1t home manufacturers are declined
such privileges by foreign corporations
who are simply running an advertising
and money-making scheme for them
selves and their exclusive exhibition
patrons, would it not seem to be a good
time to organize Portland Industrial
Exposition which should include the
products of Portland manufacturers
only. making it exclusively an exhibition
of all lines of home rather than foreign
products? Let Portlnad manufacturers
answer
We are very truly yours, for the adj
yancement OF home manufacturers,
GOUDY & KENT,
Wholesale Manufacturers of Biscuits.
COME ctionery and other Food Products.

ALITTLE INVESTMENT.
In Which Kansas City Real Estate and

Some time ago well known business
man of Portland was called West. While
he was in Kansas City he came down
stairs one morning to breakfast and en-

had retired from active business, and
who was one of the last men Mr.. A-as
we will call the merchant first referred

On being asked what hrou ght him West
MIR. B.-the other merchant-pul lied out
fifteen one thousand dollar drafts of a
Portland bank on New York, which he
said he intended to plant in some good
investment West, and that he intended
to look over the ground in Kansas City
and Duluth. The money he had obtained
by buying Atchison at 105 and selling
at 113.
MIR. A. had been shown about town by
friends before Mr.. B. arrived, and had
pointed out to him lot of land situated
on the main street of the city, close by
the opera house. This lot was offered,
in Western fashion-at so much per front
foot, and could be procured for about
thought the best chance for investment

While MIR. B. was in Kansas City he too
was shown the lot, and wrote his BROTH

to invest, and if ne would go into the
speculation. One quarter of the pur-
chase money was to be paid down and
the rest could remain on mortgage. The
brother wrote back to Mr.. B. to use his
own Judgment. But Mr.. B. couldn't
make up his mind to buy, and started
for Duluth, while Mr.. A came home to
Portland.
town and he saw Mr.. B. on the sidewalk.
He invited him into his team and he
would drive him home. On the way Mr..
A said to Mr.. B, "Well what did you in

Il didn't invest it," said Mr.. B, I'M
buttoning his coat and taking out his
wallet. "There are the drafts" said he,
showing them, and 1 am going to buy
Atchison with them. I don't dare to risk
the money in any of those Western land
grabs"
Mr.. B took his $4,000 to the brok

sold his Atchison stock for 113,
and bought it back for 11s The
public know where e1Atchison is now.
