Unquestioned
Security

The first mortgage bonds of the
California Consolidated Mines COM
pany are secured by the immense
and valuable holdings of that cor
poration, on which is about to be
erected the most modern and eff
cient plant ever installed on a gold
mine. There is already in sight and
ready for treatment ore that will
pay a profit in excess of $4,000 coo.
Only $1.250,000 in bonds can be is
sued. Hence the security is of the
very highest character.
The bonds bear per cent inter-
est, and investors receive, without
additional cost, stock, of the COM
pany equal to the amount of the
bonds purchased.
The stock will inevitably become
a great dividend payer in short
time, as I am prepared to prove,
and parties with money to invest
should investigate the proposition
before subscription lists are closed
or the stock bonus reduced to 80
per cent.
Mining and treating low grade,
free milling gold ores is the safest
and most profitable business I'm the
world, as careful investigation of
the subject will prove. The Alaska
Treadwell mine is perhaps the low
est in values of any other large
gold property operated today, run
ming about SIPS per ton, yet it has
paid in dividends up to this time
over $500, 600 The Homestake.
another low grade mine. has paid
in dividends over $15.OO0,oOO and it is
the low grade mines of South At
RIGA which supply the enormous
European demand for the precious
metal. 1t may be stated here that
the Rand stocks increased in
value within the past two years
over 100 per cent. owing to i'm
provements In mining methods and
the largely increased scale upon
which operations are carried on.
The people of, Alabama are now
afforded an opportunity to invest
in one of the worlds greatest gold
mines on q. ground floor basis. Why
not investigate the matter?
Full and accurate information
cheeerfully given.

Shorts were very aggressive as the re-
suit of the unfavorable political news
from Europe, the situation in the stock
market in this country and the rumor
of heavy tenders of cotton against March
contracts. Their selling and the letting
go of longs caused net decline of to

Signing Petitions for New
Roads.

Greensboro Patriot.
In may not be generally known
that persons who sign petitions
asking for the opening of new
public roads are liable for their
share of damages that may be
assessed in favor of objecting
property owners, but such an
act was passed by the recent
session of the Legislature. Here
in Guilford county petitions for
new roads are frequently signed
by people who have no direct
interest in the proposed high
ways, but hereafter doubtless
they will be more careful about
affixing their signatures to
petitions merely to accommodate
interested friends. Of course
where a petition is signed by al
the persons through whose
lands the proposed road woulo
run, no damages could be as
sessed, but without the unani
NOUS consent of the propert,
owners interested, signing
petition for a new road may b
a costly piece of business.
