I'VE want to tell you something now
that that is strictly confidential Don't
company would tell it which had any,
thing to conceal White & Son, our
agents at Boston are a brother and
nephew of our former manager, and
they, have invested $1,000 each in our
stock. We supposed when we heard
that they had advanced the price that
1t had merely gone to be. but we have
received copy of their prospectus

ment upon learning that they are SELL

while we are. satisfied that there has
been some mistake made, yet we are
not satisfied that this Office has made

Again it is just possible as White &
Go. said formerly that they think the
stock is far too low at 10c per share.
They have been, all over the oil fields
what our chances are to get oil. They
have been to Boise and Pocatello, Ida
no, and know our officers and directors.
They know or should know what the
company's price is and that the Mime
apolis office Is selling at 10c. We
know that. they have repeatedly OBJ
Jected to the low price of the stock
and that they, have said they thought
35c a reasonable price for it and our
president Shaw estimates it's value as
SOC per share at least. In fact they

this write to White & Co.. Pemberton
building, Boston, Mass, and ask them
for one Of their circulars.
Let US stop and take a long breath
right now. This Office Is selling at 10c
and the Boston office is selling the
same stock for 35c. and now we ask
of affairs? We do not know any more
than you. do. We have not received
positive instructions to advance the
price, and we are going to continue
selling at Toe per share till we do. VIII
you hesitate longer about sending in
an order at 10c per share? We have
said several times that you would see
the price jump and jump hard In the
next few weeks, and 1t looks now as
though it might jump to 35c per share.
Really We should not be very much
any day. When we were out west in
November We told the company Of the
peculiar conditions existing here and
1t is Just possible that they are favor
reasonable hypothesis, however, Is that
someone has got mixed on figures and
prices, but just who that someone is
is question. Anyhow, we are going
to fill all orders at 10c that come in
before March 1st, unless we receive
positive instructions to advance the
price sooner.
Now either you are getting a great
big snap or the Boston, stockholders
are paying more for their stock than
they should. We do not think that
this office has misunderstood anything
and if White & Co. have. that is their
business, not ours or If the company
has made a mistake in their communi-
cations to US. that is not our. business,
either. We have never received posi-
tive instructions to charge 15c for the
stock or 35c, and we are not going to
do it until we do, White & Co. to the
contrary notwithstanding.
Just what the trouble Is, or who Is
know; certainly Someone has blum

possibly do so. We expect telegram
any minute positively ordering an adj
vance, and If you don't buy at
once while the stock is selling at Toe
why all we can say is that you will
wish you had when you see it worth
$25 90 per share. We are giving you
all the show on earth. Don't come up
in a few days and say you didn't know
the price was going to advance SO
soon. The only safe way Is to mail
a check within 10 minutes after you
see this ad.
The Pocatello Tribune says there is
one we'll just north of us flowing two
barrels per minute. That would be
100 barrels, per hour or 2,SSO barrels
good as that. There are 1865 days in a
year, and the value Of that one well,
therefore would be So, 400, 10000 per
year. We are capitalized for $4,000
10000. After deducting several times
enough for expenses it would pay over
$50 per cent dividends per year on our
entire capitalization. Any stock that pays
6 per cent per annum is reasonably worth
par. $3.50 divided by 6 equals $40, which
is what the stock would reasonably be
worth per share. Are we not reasona-
BILE. therefore, in saying that this stock
will go to $500 per share If We strike
large flow or gusher?
Again, you can't possibly lose any
thing, for we have one well now worth
S73, 900 per year, which viii pay per
cent dividends on all of our stock after
deducting expenses, This alone makes
the stock worth soc per share, and will
prevent stockholders from losing any
thing, and will enable you at any time
to sell your stock for five times what
you now have to pay for 1T. Is there
should not put in at least $1,000 in this
stock if you can possibly spare 1t? II
there is, we don't know it. 1t is sure
winner any way you figure it. We
want your help in developing our large
holdings of choice lands, and we are
willing to share with you the immense
profits that your cooperation will pro-
duce Telegraph Governor Hunt, of
Idaho, or any bank in Boise or Poca-
tello, Idaho. if you care to do so, and
If your answers are not favorable this
office will pay for your kilograms. We
b think you are satisfied in regard to our
references, and we can satisfy you also
that We are going to get oil, and lots
of it, If you will call up to the office.
We are in the same strata with our
big rig, in which we got oil with our
small rig. We got oil with the small
get to the THIRD sand with our big
rig we are just as sure of getting
large flow of oil as we are that we are
alive, and all we will have to do will be
to go several hundred feet deeper. The
same strata is under our large rig, but
we will have to go deeper to get it, be-
cause the large rig is several miles fur
th"~ away from the fault and the
THIRD sand is deeper the farther away
you get. We can explain this in five
minutes to your entire satisfaction if
you will come to the office.
We expect to strike a guSher any day
now and the moment we do the stock
will be withdrawn from the market; be-
sides we have established several
agencies this week in Ohio, Kentucky
and Indiana, and your opportunity to
get this stock at any price will be gone
shortly.
We can only say in conclusion as we
said last week. that we will fill your or
der at Toe if 1t gets here before we get
orders to raise the price. and If it don't
we will either fill the orders at the ad-
vanced price or return you your money.
