They are also the highest expressions of
American patriotism and sincere feeling.

A Good Investment.

The investment of S., or even much
larger sum, for these guesses is regarded
favorably by many shrewd business men.
The coupons that go with the deal enable
them to get their money back, so that the
possibilities of the large gain presented by
winning big prize actually cost nothing:
A contest that is absolutely fair and that
is restricted to comparatively few PEG.
pie like this one offers better chances OF
gain than investments in bonds, stocks and
speculative ventures generally.
The National tribune. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1877-1917, 1903-09-24

(The purchaser of So worth of Guesses
pays less than Sc. n gueSs)
For the money spent in the purchase of
guesses the purchaser can have fullpaid
subscription or advertising coupons, valid
during the year 1908. The subscription
coupons are good for new subscribers.
The advertising coupons are good for new
advertising, and are not transferable to
advertising agents.

Awarding the Prizes.

The official report of the Secretary of
the Treasury will determine who are en-
titled to prizes. A list of the awards, Civ
ing the names of winners and the guesses
they made. will be mailed to every con-
testant. Any contestant will have two
weeks in which to claim prize in case a
mistake has been made against him. By
this plan the contestants themselves prdcti-
caIIy ouord the prizes. At the end of two
weeks the prizes will be paid, and no
claim can then be considered.

always be found on the Washington News
page of The National Tribune, but there
seems to be little or no advantage in con-
sulting them; because, as we have said.
they run this year about the same as last

islands a sentiment appropriate to the
day. The President selected the Fourth
as the day on which he would be glad
10 perform his part in the important
ceremony. which signifies so much to
the many millions who inhabit the Phil
ippine archipelago.
The Commercial Cable Company has
every expectation Of completing the lay
ing of the cable from Guam to Manila by
the Fourth. or will at least make a land
Ing on the northern end OF Luzon. where
messages may be received and sent.
The company has encountered unfore-
seen difficulties IN laying the cable from
Guam on TO the Philippines in the fact
that the soundings relied on were in
complete and a vast sink" was met,
which it was thought best 70 avoid by a
long circuit of several hundred miles
and considerable expense. The sink
could have been crossed. but there would
have been danger of the breaking and
parting Of the cable from seismic dis
tUrbaDces.
