Cotton Corporation, it necessarily fol-
lowed that a statement of the affairs
of the corporation whose stock was to
be sold, should be supplied to the de-
lpartment.
After letters had been written to
the company, also giving this infor-
nation, letter was received asking
that the application for permit to do
business in Arkansas be withdrawn.
Auditor Coffman took hand and stat
ed that as the petition was a matter
of record, it could not be withdrawn.
Now circular has been received in
the office of the state auditor, purport-
| ing to have been issued by the South
ern States Cotton Corporation, in
which it states a state permit has been
issued to it. This makes the officials
wrathy under the collar, and they en-
phatically deny such state of affairs,
and until a corporation has been able
to stand the test of the blue sky law"
people of the state are expected to be-
ware of selling agents who make them
tempting offers to get rich quick in the
purchase of its stock.
