IN THE LAND OF GOLD,
Here Is the Opportunity of Your Life.
The Investment of Few Dollars
rIay Bring You a Fortune.

Away out upon the Pacific coast, at the
very gateway to the land of gold, there has
recently been organized company Of thor
oughly reliable and representative men, rrin-
cipally state officials Of the young state of
Washington, whose purpose it is to outfit
practical and experienced prospectors on the
cooperative plan and inaugurate thorough
ly systematic research of the rich gold fields
of the north. This is your opportunity. You
have read of Alaska, talked Of the Yukon
and longed to be on the Klondike, but fer
various reasons you cannot make the long,
perilous trip in person. The great distance,
the enormous expense and the unparalleled
hazards, hardships and privations that one
must encounter practically excludes and pro-
hibts the individual from attempting to share
in the rich spoils of that fabulously rich
country. But by concentration of means
and influences all difficulties can be over
come. 1t is for this purpose that the promo
tiers Of the Alaska Cooperative Mining Syn
dicate have organized, and their plan practi-
cally insures success and will afford an op-
portunity for those Of limited means to par
ticipate in the fabulous discoveries that are
constantly beng made in that far away
northland. The Syndicate now has prospec-
tors in the field, and will continue to outfit
others during the coming season. For this
purpose 100000 shares of the preferred or
treasury stock, of the par value of $I.oo
each, are offered at this time at IS cents per
share. Hence, 10 shares will cost you $2. 80;
100 shares, $25.oo; 1000 shares, $25o.oo,
etc. This stock, fully paid up and non-as-
sessable, will beissued on payment as above.
Every dollar received for stock will be hon
estly and judiciously expended in Quitting
practical and reliable prospectors and the re-
suit of their discoveries and locations will go
into the treasury for the purpose of paying
dividends upon your stock. The subscribers
to this preferred stock will receive back IS
cents per share, or their full cash subscrip.
ton, before the promoters receive dollar.
One single location may mean millions for
the stockholders, and the Syndicate honestly
expect to secure a hundred locations, includ-
ing both quartz and placer. Following are
the duly elected trustees of the Syndicate,
and their official standing should certainly
be accepted as guarantee Of good faith and
the promise of an honest administration of
the Syndicate's affairs:
Will D. jenkins, Secretary of State; Robert
Bridges, State Land Commissioner; Thomas
NJ. Vance, Assistant Attorney General; C.
G. Heifner, State Insurance Commissioner;

to-; Rev. Horatio Alling, Congregational
minister; Jesse F. Murphy, ex-Regster U. s.
Land Office.

for each share pays for the stock in full.
