there are very few that would not
show an appreciation towering away

classes of stocks. This is a feature
which appeals to several hundred

therefore, be 500 instead of 40. In
spiration Copper, which is a prospect
only, and is selling at SIG per share,
has par value of 500. Miami, sell
ing at 1923, is selling at nearly five
times par, which is SIS per share It's
quotation should, therefore, be 400 on
the basis of 800 shares And so, run
ming down the list, Nevada Consoli-
dated Copper's par value is IS; this,
too, at $16h, is selling at over three
times par and should be quoted, if
the figures were to give the true and
comparative merits of stocks, at
322h. Ray Consolidated Copper, in
the same way, should be quoted at
1870 instead of 10; its shares are
valued at $40 par, and for the mo-
ment sell at 10, or Whereabouts, Ten
nessee Copper should be, if rated cor
rectly on a comparative basis, 1876

Utah Copper, which is selling at So,
is selling at over five times par,
which is so. Comparing Utah Cop

There is an informed and enlight-
ened opinion regarding mining stocks
and there is an uniformed and UNI
enlightened opinion regarding the
same, and much to be regretted is
it that the latter is altogether too
widespread. Men of the standing of
the millionaire Mr.. K-n share this
ignorance, and it is an ignorance
which only serves to poison and
damn the mining industry in the
eyes of hundreds of thousands of
otherwise intelligent investors in the
United States who might otherwise
be attracted toward putting their saw
ings into mining shares of recog-
nized or prospective merit
Taking the stock exchange issues
which Mr. K-n mentioned, only one
of them, Amalgamated Copper, is
selling below par, not counting In

NO MORE CONQUEST
Says PRES. WILSON
IN ADDRESS EXECUTIVE DE

SEEKS NO TERRITORY.

MOBILE. Ala. oct. 27--A flat dec

never seek another foot of territory
in conquest was voiced by President

And the United States must see Ia
II that no other nation gains any ter
ritory in this hemisphere" he contin-
ued The president styled the COM
pletion of the Panama canal as the
emancipation of the LATIN American
states from foreign control"
The president was warmly well
coined upon his arrival here Thou
sands from all parts of the state pa
raded the streets.
Governor O'Neal introduced the
president after predicting that the
completion of the Panama canal
would enable the south to wrest
shipping supremacy from the east.
At the outset of his address the
president said I'VE ought to be the
first in assisting the Latin American
states to emancipation. They have
been driven to hard bargains but
hereafter we will draw them close,
and closer on terms of friendship and
quality for that is the only possible
bond between us. We stand for high
cr ideals, constitutional liberties and
freedom for all. l want to say here
that America does not seek another
foot of territory in conquest and we
must see to it that no other foreign
nation does so in this hemisphere
The United States must carry out
that program. The American spirit
must be the guardian or true consti-
tutional liberty"

arrival here, President Wilson board
ed the revenue cutter Winona for q
trip about Mobile bay He later went
to the Lyric theater where the com

BUT few VOTES CAST
IN MEXICAN ELECTION
INDICATIONS THAT NOT ENOUGH
RECEIVED TO MAKE LE-
GAL CHOICE

MEXICO CITY. oct. 2T-At
the close Of the Mexican election
yesterday indications were that
not sufficient votes had been
cast to constitute a legal choice
for the presidency to succeed
general Victoriano Huerta.
II is estimated that fewer than
10000 of the so 900 eligible vot-
ers In the republic went to the
polls.
The leaders OF the Catholic
party claim a long lead although
they were unable to estimate the
number Of votes polled for their
candidates, Frederico Gamboa
and General Rascon.
President Huerta spent the day
at his Popotla suburban home.
There was no disorder in Mexico

o'clock and remained open until
noon when the attendants clos

that time they We're reopened

cials, one of whom was designat-
ed president" were in attend
ance at each polling place. Those
officials represented the various
parties and assisted in the prep
aration of the ballot when neces-
sary.
The polling places. OF which
there were said to 92S. were sit
uated in the entrances Of build
ings generally but in some in
stances were set up on the side
walks or on corners of public
squares. Each had table on

refuse to recognize Huerta or the au.
thority of the illegally constituted
Mexican congress.
Reports We're current that members
of the diplomatic corps in Mexico City
plan a meeting this week to submit a

FACTS ABOUT THE ELEC-
TION IN MEXICO.

In Mexico there are 10000
000 uneducated Indians, whose
males of voting age never have
cast a ballot. have not the
slightest idea Of suffrage and
would not vote If they could.
There are no restrictions on
manhood suffrage. That means
not fewer than 100000 legally
qualified voters in Mexico.
1t is doubtful if 100000 votes
were cast in the only National
election ever held, the one which
seated Madero.
1t Is doubtful II one-half Of
the qualified voters of Mexico
know or ever will know that
Madero was elected or foully
assassinated.
There are millions Of Indians,
none of whom speak a word OK
Spanish, and none of whom are
MeXicans save in name. They
are absolutely unconcernd with
the fate of Madero.
There are about 100000
male Mexicans of voting and
fighting age, fitted by education
and position to participate in
self-government This Is the
responsible Mexican million and
II constitutes the class which
must be induced or forced to
exercise It's responsibilities h or
surrender them.
Not 10 per cent Of the "re-
sponsible millions" take any
