Invest at Home

The determination of State Bank
Commissioner Williams to bar from
Vermont corporations of doubtful
stability or that show EVIDENCE of be-
ing of the get-rch-quick sort is high
ly commendable and will command
universal public approval. Wildcat
concerns spring up in a night and
through the medium of promises Of
profits largely in excess of any that
could be earned in a legitimate bus
mess, their promoters are able to
fleece the unwary among the public
of thousands of dollars before the
postal authorities can bring them TO
account before the courts.
There appears to be no limitation
in the number of ingenuity OF these
swindlers. Even Imprisonment fails
to work permanent reform in the
cases of many of them who are no
sooner freed after paying the penalty
for one crime than they embark upon
other swindling operations as certain
as night is to follow day to return
them once more to the stern grasp
OF outraged law.
Il probably is true that not all the
corporations that will be debarred by
the action OF the state bank commits
sioner from attempting to dispose OF
their securities to the people of Veg
mont are of the wildcat kind. but
practically all of them are of such du-
bious character as to fully warrant
the measures of protection for the
the people of Vermont the state
bank department proposes to adopt.
And in this connection it is permits
sible TO refer again TO the sound ad-
vice given by Theodore ~ Vail. The
message this gentleman brought was
founded on ripe and broad business
experience. Pointing out the danger
and folly of investing in firms that
have no established standing in the
business or financial world he laid
particular stress upon the fact that
the people OF the Green Mountain
state who have capital or savings to
invest will best advance their own in
individual interests and best promote
the material wellbeing of the com
monwealth by investing such capital
or savings in the development of
home industries and home resources.
Such advice is the best that can be
given. 1t is based upon sound sense
and accumulated business experience
If followed as it ought to be it will
result in a business and Industrial
boom that will send Vermont ia
along the pathway of solid and per
manent development in manifold dir
ections. 1t will keep capital at home
instead Of allowing it to 80 to distant
states for investment, and will put
Vermont in the procession of indus
trial progress that will lead it 10
heights of prosperity never yet attain
ed and never deemed possible save by
the far-yisioned men who have right
ly gagged it's tremendous POSSIBLE

Selling Unborn Black Foxes

Last September we had occasion to
warn investors against advertise
ments and alleged news articles in
Hearsts Boston newspaper calculated
to fill the Golfers of mushroom silver
fox companies in Prince Edward Is
land, and incidentally to add to the
golden stream of Hearst's tainted in
come. One paragraph of that warn
ing reads:
I'VE respectfully suggest to any
person who may be tempted by the
Americans bait to take. n fiier in the
fox business in Prince Edward Island
to remember that most of the
companies advertising in the Ameri-
cam have nothing back of them
more than to raise money and an OPP
ton on some pairs of young foxes
that may never breed"
As matter of fact the only young
foxes these newly organized compan-
les had options on were young foxes
yet unborn, and the trouble we pre-
dicted has already started, as the lat
ter consular report from Charlotte
town. the capital OF the Island. clear
" shows.

panies.r says this report. had a
difficult time last year in adjusting
their financial positions on account
OF the inability OF unwillingness Of
option dealers to fulfil their engage
ments Of the black foxes which had

ers prior to the birth of the foxes"

400 NEGROES WAIT CHIEF SAM
More Gathering at Galveston to Join
African Colonlsts

African Colonlsts
Galveston, Tex. March 25.--Four
hundred negroes arrived here today,
coming by special train from Weleet-
ka, okla, to join the several hundred
already here waiting the arrival of
the ship from New York under COM
mand of Chief Sam, with whom they
expect to embark for the African
gold coast.
Despite the fact that the ship is
still in New York and the date of de-
parture for Galveston uncertain, and
although newspapers have disclosed
number of questionable dealings of
Chief Sam, negroes here still insist
the ship will come to carry them to
Africa. Leaders appear to have af-
fairs well in hand, and few negroes
can be induced to talk; their faith in
Chief Sam appears to be unshake-
able.
Leaders of the party arriving today
stated that several hundred more
will start from Weleetka in few
days. Negroes arriving today are
from various sections of Oklahoma,
Missouri, Kansas and north Texas.
They are housed in one of the negro
parks here, and appear to have
money, as none of them are seeking
work.

years, and twice day for
forty years, or to be explicit, 3,256,789

TO brush his hair, and has to tip the
mirror back to get a look in. His wife
had always tipped II forward Just
a few minutes before to see how her
clothes hung in the back
FINALLY. IN desperation he bought
a chiffonier FOR his own use, and when
he reached home that day he found
the chidonior turned around with the
mirror tipped forward His wife was
also using that. II was too much, and
throwing a military hair brush at
each mirror, he disappeared. Many
men have disappeared for reasons
less grave
Two days later, when two hundred
miles away. he stopped in his flight
and sent back for a copy of his town
papers He wanted to see how his
wife was taking II.
There was picture OF his wife on
the front page taken, he saw at

sorrow.

gown cut low, but Lysander John
