tors and meets with tho greatest sue.

be unfavOrable. Some promoters
give monthly reports until the com.

there arc stockholders waiting for
dividends. The reports are stopped
and tho stockholders are left In the
dark nm to operations and finances.
No man or set of men who have any
regard for their business future can
afford to treat their clients In this
manner. The client IL In reality
entitled to more consideration at the
hands Of the promoter after he has

When this fact IL better understood

other advantage In the policy Of fre.

to compel, by legislation. all mining
companies to render careful report
