To the Fargo Forum: We extract
from the Daily Stakeholder of New
York OF date Of June II, 1898, a
statement OF the earnings of the N.
P. for the first ten months OF the
present fiscal year, which for the
first time since the opening OF the &.
N. in 1890, nearly approaches the
receipts OF that and previous years.
The ten months show gross earnings
to be $2O,O31 $40 and the net &c.,
965, 1924. The highest net earnings
ever attained by this road was in
1892, when itrea ched the sum Of $40, :
OS4,1OS. From present indir:;tio S
there is w::lruL1 for the belief that
tile cad o. the fiscal year, June 80,
1898. will show III increase over
that OF 1892 OF half million dol
lars, or more.
What from the great depression
and competition succeeding tie panic
and the enormous fx",l charges for
stocks and bonls amounting to
$277,592,SO2, vas bankrupted, and
in 1896 was sold under foreclosure
proceedings for the sum OF $56, O0O,~
600, including 100000 acres OF
land, was reorgnnized and bonded for
1926, 100000 of three aud four per
cent bonds, and stocked for $16l,-
100000, upon which bonds the in
terest and dividend, at the rate OF
four per cent on the stock, have been
paid the present fiscal year.
The Stakeholder says: "Northern
Pacifc's progress since the reorgan-
ization has been little short OF mar
velous, and the end is not yet. We
still have the Klondike to hear from,
more big crops, and condition of
prosperity in the company's terri
tory, such as it has been a stranger
to for several years"
The Stakeholder, commenting on
the management of the old COM
pany, says: "The Northern Pacific
property OF today is in all respects
the anti thesis of a decade or more
ago, the thieves have been kicked
out-whoever hears of Willard, the
charlatan? And in their places hon
est men are installed, who are abl y
and conservatively administering the
affairs of the N. P. Co. upon a sol
vent, remuneratiye and, as to value,
steadily apprecia ting basis"
Yes, there were in the old CON-
pany over 5000 stockholders. The
purchasing committee assessed these
stockholders SIS per share on worth:
less stock and when the returns
came in there were just sixteen that
participated in the reorganization;
the balance were frozen out. Thou
sands of families that had their all
invested in that company, and which
had not received a dollars revenue
on their stock for twenty years, were
ruined. That's the first installment
of honesty for the new company.
This honest new company pro-
ceeded to organize under the name
of the Northern Pacific Railway Co.,
issuing stocks and bonds as shown
to the extent OF 10000 per mile,
and exacting revenue from the peo-
pie and patrons to the extent of
more than four times the value OF
it's road, and when application is
made for a reduction Of the tariff,
the company gets an injunction in
the federal court against it under
the plea that it would confiscate tie
spr ,operty Oh, yes, they are very.
