sand and water falls continuously on

Denver, Colo. November 80, 1918.
The Mountain States Telephone and
Telegraph Company, in the consider
alton of its future development, recog-
nizes that its highest interests as pub
lie utility lie in establishing the closest
and most friendly relationship with the
public generally, and with its patrons in
particular; therefore, it is the purpose OF
The Mountain States Telephone and
Telegraph Company, through this an
nouncement, to inaugurate what may be
termed an advertising educational series
of articles, both in the newspapers and
in the form of letters to its customers
1t is our hope that this campaign may
mark a new era in the relation of public
utility corporations to the public they
serve. We want this education to work
both ways-that the public may learn
the truth about us, and that we may
learn how the public regard us, and how
we may fairly and efficiently serve the
public-in other words, what is just and
right 10 us and to the people, and to
convince the public that we will volun-
tarily remedy any wrongs we are doing
if pointed out to us.
We shall show you our financial affairs,
frankly and freely. 1t so happens that
our financing has been of such nature
that it is easy for us to clearly show to
YOU this side OF our affairs. What we
mean by this is, that we have absolutely
10 water in our stock; we have no bonds,
nor any preferred stock, and no mort
gage of any kind upon which to pay
fixed charges. We have more invested
in our plant at its present replacement
value than our issue of common stock,
and we have no other stock issued than
the common stock There are no
wheels within wheels, nor companies
within companies, to absorb profits. We
finance ourselves from year to year by
selling our common stock TO the people,
at not less than par. in the states in
which we operate.
When we tell you the story of our
financing. we will prove to you that
there never have been any fortunes,
large or SMALL made out of the manip-
ulation of our stock-in other words, no
high financing has ever been done in
connection with the Mountain States
Telephone and Telegraph Company. or
its predecessors The stock neverhas had
any speculative value; it has been. and
is now simply safe investment.
There is a great misunderstanding
upon the part of the public as to this side
of our business. Persons with ulterior
motives. striving for office, and news
papers wishing to give startling news
(see note below frequently publish
stories of how rich certain officials of our
company are. Right now, this is being
done in connection with the new rev.
enue tax. We suppose these stories
grow out of the belief of certain of the
public that the executive officials of our
company own the entire plant. 1t is
absurd. for these executive officials of
our company are merely trustees of the
property, for the stockholders, and none
of them are rich men, nor have they a
very heavy holding of the stock. 1t is
true that certain reputed rich men have
large holdings of the stock of our conf
pany-some of them being on our Board
of Directors-but not one OF them has
made any money whatsoever out OF deal
ing in our stock. They have all paid

verted pie tin placed in the bottom of
the same. This false bottom is placed
in the pail SO as to permit circulation
of water and prevent humping of the
bottles. An accurate thermometer
should be placed in the water or in
one of the bottles. Set the bottles of
milk in the pail and fill with water
nearly level with the milk in the bot
ties. Place the pail with the milk
bottles on the stove and heat until the
thermometer indicates temperature
of from $50 to 160 degrees F. The
pail and bottles should then be re-
moved from the stove and allowed to
stand 25 minutes in the hot water.
Now remove the cover and place the
pail under a cold water faucet, allow
ing the water to run slowly into the
pail. Continue until all the hot water
has been replaced with the cold water
and the temperature of the milk has
been reduced to about that of the
water. This is the cheapest and most

utilities that bring them in contact with
each other, and that the more nearly
perfect in efficiency and sufficiency the
utilities serving the public are, the more
prosperity, comforts and conveniences
the public will enjoy.
We believe our story is an interesting
one, and we hope that everyone will read
it.
NOte.-As an instance of the kind of
startling news which newspapers some
times publish, we want to call attention
to recent articles in the newspapers
headed, United States Government Calls
Upon Two Girls Stenographers to Tell
Where They Got Two Million Dollars to
Form the Corporation Securities and
Investment Company" T hen the
articles went on to say that this Corpor-
ations Securities and Invest m en- t
Company was a scheme of the Telephone
Company TO further its purpose of mon
opolizing telephone companies, etc.
The truth is that our company has
been met with strong feeling in the
State of Montana-well-nigh universal
that something should be done to relieve
the citizens of that state, of two tele
phone systems. Public meetings have
been held, and votes taken, that the
telephones of one or the other of the
systems should be thrown out.
Resolutions and letters have been sub
mitted to us, and we have started out to
see what we could do to relieve the citi-
zens of that state of this burden.
We found that the Independent inter
ests operating there also operated i'll
Spokane, in the State of Washington,
and in Northern Idaho, and that the
independent interests doing business in
Montana could not be bought, or sold
SO as to alone cover the property in Mon
tana, but that the purchase must include
their property in the states of Idaho and
Washington. The Mountain States
Telephone and Telegraph Company does
not operate in either of these sections,
and, therefore, is not responsible for
telephone conditions there, nor does it
wish to operate there, but we felt we
must meet the situation i'll Montana. and
SO, in order to be in position to either
buy or sell, from or to, the Independent
interests in Montana, there was formed
this Corporation Securities and Invest
ment Company, as corporate company,
to enter into negotiations with the In
dependent interests in Montana, which
negotiations are now in progress, and, if
possible, to buy these Independent in
terests in Montana, northern Idaho and
Washington, and then in the end, if
that purpose was accomplished, the Cor
poratior Securities and Investment Com
! pany should sell to The Mountain States
Telephone and Telegraph Company the
portion of the independent plants locat-
ed in Montana, and sell to others the
portion of these Independent plants
existing in northern Idaho and Washing
ton.
We explain this so the public may
know that in the above Foreword,
where we say there is no com pany with
in company, or wheels within wheels"
we are speaking absolutely truly, and
also that this Corporation Securities and
Investment Company, which was so
freely advertised by the articles i'll the
newspaper referred to, is absolutely
legitimate and proper company and or
ganized for the specific purposes stated.
