The Camp Bird SSle

In its report of the Camp Bird
mines, in Colorado, the Investor OF
Denver, says:
"The agreement indicates that the
Camp Bird, Limited, is to be foated
on the English market at the rate of
$3.50 share or $l3, 80, 900 for the
property. The first mortgage deben-
turc amounting TO So, 80, 900 no doubt
will be handed over to Mr. Walsh in
block. so that he will he secured bv
a mortgage on the property to that
amount while tie shares are being
sold. The cash derived from the sale
OF the first 500, 600 shares probably will
be divided between the Venture Cor
pOratiOn and Mr.. Walsh, and the rea-
sOnable conclusion is that he vii, get
the larger part of the ST, 80 600 those
shares are expected to bring Out OF
the proceeds of the next $50. 600 shares
sold his mortgage of IS. $50, 900 is to be
paid off. There remain 30 600 shares
unaccounted for, and worth S625, 900 at
the proposed price. which probably
will be divided among the promoters
of the deal.
"Assuming that Mr.. Walsh gets ST.
100000 out of the first 100000 shares
sold, he will have that amount in cash
and still will hold mortgage on the
property for ST, 75S, 900, from which, at
six per cent, he will derive an annual
income of S405,tOO. The company
must pay that interest promptly or he !
will be in a position to take the mine /
back. If the flOtatiOn is entirely sue !
cessiul Mr.. Walsh will get the So, 80
900 in money in addition to the $4,000,
600, or whatever oher sum he receives
from the sale q the first 800, 900

Rural Free Delivery System Has Eff

Rural Free Delivery System Has Eff
fected an Unexpected Reform.
James L. Sphinx, one Of the best known
travelling men Of the northwest, has Just
returned from a long trip through the
country districts OF Minnesota, saws the
Minneapolis Times, and reports the sue
cess Of rural free delivery along a line that
can hardly have been anticipated by those
instrumental in establishing the system.
In one Of the towns where Mr.. Sphinx
sold goods he overheard a saloon keeper
discussing rural delivery and advancing
arguments why the plan should be dono
away with. The main point he made was
that It ruined business.
why" said Mr.. Saloon Keeper. "when
men came into town every day for their
mail they were sure to drop into my place
while they waited; everybody drank, every
body treated everybody else and It made
trade lively. Now the farmers come into
town but two or three times a week and
more often but once, and the worst of It Is
they don't happen to come in together, for
they only come in for groceries or some
other supplies and no two mems supplies
are apt TO give out at exactly the same
time. This. you see, does away with the
matter M treating and reduces trade tre-
mendously. It's running business, I tell
you"
Mr.. Sphinx is an observing man, and the
sa~loon-keeper's point of view interested
him. He took pains to inquire of the bust
ness men he traded with as to the correct
ness Of the saloon-keeper's Judgment, find
ing to his surprise that 1T was generally
conceded that rural free delivery has ma
terially affected the liquor trafRc in the
small towns and gives promise of being a
most effective means of increasing tenn
perance among the farmers.
Uncle Sans method of work and it's eff
feet. although they were not primarily In
tended, must give the temperance workers
pause when contrasted with those OF the
Carrie Nation ilk and the canteen howl
ers," was the observation of the leading
merchant of one of the largest of the towns
visited.
