with reference to tho present GENERAL

The present General First Mortgage Bonds mature in
1921, but are rcdeemable by compulsory drawings at
any time at 10 per cent. from the proceeds OF land
sales or tho liked annual contribution by the Com.
pany to the sinking Fund.
Those compulsory ~redemptions in the past have
been a disturbing factor In all calculations for Invest
ment purposes, and the Inauguration Of a new and
vigorous policy for the sale OF the lands may DO OF.
pcctOd from this time forward greatly to increase the
amount OF such redemptionS
In SOM years these redenptions have required
large contributions from the Operating Department
even TO the extent OF the entire annual sinking Fund,
a sum which would provide for the annual Interest
on about SI0,OO0,O1O Of Prior Lien Bonds a. now pro
posed, II IA manifestly to the benent OF holdsra Of
General First Mortgage Bonds TO obtain an In vestment
OF longer continuance. and II Is also to the benent Of
all subsequent securities 20 diminish this unnsceSSA.
rly large burden Of annual nIed charge.
AoOnSersion on the basis Indicated In the preceding
table VIII relieve the holders Of General First Mort
gage Bonds from these calls for redemption. which
prevent their bonds from reaching the high price
they would otherwise command. and aIso will relieve

Brother Knappen is an old newspaper
nan in northern Minnesota. He for
merly published the Fisher Bulletin,
which he has again returned to, but
we know him. best as the founder and
publisher of the Free Press at Detroit,
Becker county. At this place he en-
countered great obstacles. Having es-
poused the principles of the Peoples
party in a county strongly Republican
and dominated by powerful and I'M
scrupulous bosses, supplied with ample
means, they prosecuted, boycotted and
humiliated him in every possible way
and made no pretense of conceanng
their determination to push him to the
wall, which they finally succeeded in
doing. Through it all Mr.. Knappen
evinced great courage,and persistency
and succeeded in publishing newsy,
bright and attractive payer, which ably
and fearlessly defended reform prin-
ciples. he il an active, wide-awake
and aggressive man and in full accord
with the principles of the peoples
party and especially insistent upon
the free coinage OF silver and none
tary reform.-Moorhead News.
