is obviously desirable for both that
the two corporations merge into

cents. with the probability of reach
ing 10 cents shortly and 25 cents

There is no market whatever for
Sunrise stock. The stoco is not
listed on my exchange and there
is no curb trading in it. In other
words, there is no hope for bidders
Sunrise stock. The stock is not
with a going concern which has
money for development and an &C
tive market for it's stock. In this
connection it might be said that
the Grandma Consolidated is under
the control Of the w~ell-known mine
and market makers who made the
famous Jumbo Extension and Great
Bend mines and others. who pro-
mise to duplicate their previous sue
cesses with the Grandma Consoli-
dated.
While, as said before, the Grand
ma Consolidated has acquired more
than enough stock to give 1t alb
solute control over the Sunrise
ground, still it is the disposition Of
the Grandma to permit the remain
ing stockholders of the Sunrise to
join, with them with the view Of ul-
timately cleaning up and dissolving
the Sunrise company; therefore the
directors of the Grandma Consolida-
ted hereby make the following offer
to the Sunrise stockholders:
To issue and exchange one share
Of the treasury stock of the Grand
ma Consolidated Mines company for
W shares of the stock of the
Goldleld Sunrise Gold Mining COM
pany, without any initial exchange
fee, said proposition to be open to
Sunrise stockholders for the period
of sixty days from date.
At the present market price of
Grandma, the foregoing offer would
be at the rate of three cents per
share for Sunrise; and for your
we will say that this
is more than we paid for large block,
Of Sunrise stock. But the point 10
be kept in mind is, that by this
exchange Sunrise stockholders be-
come stockholders in a live, going
and growing company, whose stock
is destined to occupy a notable posi-
ton in the market, whereas now
they are stockholders in a COM
pany that has practically lost it's
and it's identity.

LANDING A
DANGLER
By SADIE OLCOTT

''Bess. how long are you going to
keep Ben Hustled dangling about you?
l think 1t is a girls duty either to ac-
cept a sutton or send him away"
Aunt Martha, it's not I who am keep
ing Ben dangling; it's Ben who is keep
ing me dangling"
I'm that Ease | haven't any sympa-

a man to the point deserves to remain

what can I do?"
What can you do? There are hun
dreds of things you can do. The only
thing you can't do and win is to let Ben
presume that any time he makes up his
mind he wants you he can get you.
There are many reasons why a young
man assumes that he doesn't wish to
marry and very few that induce him
to take a wife. He's not likely to look
to the loneliness of old age without
wife or children. He's having a good
time in his youth spending all his mon
ey on himself. and it looks to him like
halving his blessings and doubling his
cares to we'd"

discussion Of the Carrizal incident
The fact that the men were captured
and were being held was viewed as a
hostile act requiring Immediate repu-
dIation by the defacto government
