SHOULD INVESTIGATE.
Urged to Scrutinize Plan Of
Organization.

At its last meeting the Mine Oper
ators' association of Seattle. Wash.
ington, adopted the following warn
ing to investors who are solicited to
purchase the treasury stocks Of min.
ing corporations: "We urge invstOrs
to scrutinize carefully the plan Of
organization Of each company offer
ing treasury stock for sale. We warn
investors against buying other than
treasury stocks. Money paid for
stock outside the treasury goes into
private pockets and invariably inter-
feres with the development work in
which the company Is engaged. Such
stocks are worthless unless there be
u sufficient treasury to push develop
ment work. The proper place to
buy treasury stock IL from the officers
OF u company or their authorized fis-
cal agents." This IL good, sound
advice and should be needed by in
vestOrs. A mining corporation with
n large percentage Of its s,tck In the
treasury il a much safer speculation
than company with a small treas
ury. What would be proper sized
treasury IL largely matter Of opin-
ion and must depend somewhat upon
the amount that has been expended
upon the properties before the incor.
poratiOn IL effected.
Investors cannot he warned too
strongly against buying mining stock
Of cut.rate brokers. The stocks off,
cred for sale through brokers are us-
ually those that were issued to pro-
moters for some imaginary service
aud whenever they are thrown upon
the market the price IL usually below
the price fixed by the directors upon
the treasury stock. The result is
that the treasury sales are shut of
and all 1t ock out becomes worthless.
II would he much easier to develop u

alton would provide large treasury
fund. and II the investors would In
