Bought Sligo by Telephone

Question--About eight months ago an
elderly woman, relative OF mine. as the
result OF many telephone calls, was per-
suaded to buy 100 shares of Sligo Iron and
Steel. The broker sold 1t to her at s14 a
share, while she could have purchased 1t
on the curb a that time at from 81 to 50.
They told her glowing tale OF the dvi-
dends the stock would pay and how it was
sure to. rise in price. The company Is now
in the hands of q receiver and the stock is
quoted at from as to 70. would appre-
ciate your opinion to whether i should
advise my relative to hold the stock or to.
sell it for what she get and take the
loss. Can she institute proceedings against
the brokers?-T. C. N.
Answel-Wc doubt if your relative
could recover from the brokers who
sold her Sligo stock over the telephone.
If they are the brokers we think they
are they have folded their tent and
stolen away, in fact. However, that is
legal question about which we are
not qualified to advise you. If the
woman in question can get a bid for
her stock we think she had better sell
it. We doubt if it is worth anything
We did our best to expose this robbery
some months ago. Tell your relative
never to buy stocks over the telephone
again.

bonds are selling between so and SIS
G.. F. c.
Answer-The Fort Smith Light and
Traction per cent bond, due 1886,
yields $50 per cent if held to maturity
at the present price of 70. The bond
has not the same degree of safety of
principal as an Atchison, Topeka l.
Santa Fe per cent bond has, due
1885. selling recently at around 80,
yielding 6.37. We would suggest a

issues: Chicago & Alton 3ia per cent

SIZE? Will you also inform me in what
denomination the bonds are sold Il. r. X
Answer-Thc Chicago e. Alton 31as,
due 1860, are secured by first lien
on IS miles Of line and by second
mortgage on most Of the rest of the
company's 68S miles Of line. The COM
rany is one Of the weak railroad COM
panies and we would not advise pur-
chase of the 312s under present rail
road conditions. New York Telephone
general 4lss, due 1889, are secured
by first mortgage on the entire prop
erty and franchises of the company
which operates the New York Tele-
phone system. We consider the bonds

$1,000 multiples only, but the New

proceeds to buy Cluett-Pea body common
on a 90 per cent margin. l have Il de-

idea as to the degree OF risk Why can
various tested industrials be on the mar

p. c. '"N'
Answer = We do not see anything
conservative about hypothecating Lib

We do not attempt to advise our read
ers about the future course of the
prices of speculative stocks. Tested
stocks can be bought to yield to 10

there is danger that the high yield

Great Northern and Northern Pacific

Cuestion--will you tell me which you
consider the better investment. the Great
Northern the Northern Pacific? Is the
latter preferred stock? What do you think
of tho American Tele phone and Telegraph
stock as an investment at the present
price &C. II.
Answer-Both Northern Pacific and
Great Northern are common stock, al
though the Great Northern is called
preferred stock. There was at one
time common stock junior to it. We
consider them both speculative We
consider The Americang Telephone and

The Raymer enterprise. (New Raymer, Weld County, Colo.) 1910-19??, 1921-02-10

THE public anxiety for Garfield
= through his long battle with
death was deepened by a general dread
OF the vice presidents succeeding to
the presidency. The people as a whole
knew nothing Of Chester Alan Arthur,
except that he had been only lately
removed from the collectorship Of the
port Of New York as a machine pol.
ltician. and that he had been noml.
mated for the vice presidency as a
henchman Of Roscoe Conkling.
After Arthur had been sitting In the
Vice presidents chair only a little
more than two weeks, he opened a big
White House envelope one day and
flushed as he glanced at the unexpect.
ed contents-the nomination of a hated
"Half-Breed" to the collectorshIp Of
the port Of New York. With an ex.
cited gesture. he summoned Senators
Conkling and Plat. and the three
"Stalwarts" famed up with rage at
the challenge to them from the new
administration. When the New York
senator's resigned thir> seats and ap-
pealed to the legislature Of their state
to re-elect them as protest against
the administration, the spectacle Of
the vice president descending to that

melee lent color to the already IN.
favorable impression Of him in the
public mind.
When In the midst Of the fight and
a losing fight, Garfield was shot, the
American people revolted at the
thought that Arthur and the "stal.
warts" should profit by the assassIna.
ton. The public mind revolted also
at the prospect Of a political boss en-.
throned In the White House, with his
motley following about him.
That popular picture Of Arthur, as
city politician out of the pages of
Puck, was distorted and untrue, simply
because the background was omitted
from 1t. The real, the native character
Of the man had been shaped 10 sur.
roundings very different from those In
which the country found him when he
first came under Its attention. Born
In Vermont to Baptist minister, a
man Of education and high principles,
who had come over from ireland and
who soon afterward settled In New
York state, Arthur had grown up In
village parsonages, where the living
was plain and the thinking high.
When the great test came and he
stood silently for three months In the
shadow Of the high Office, Arthur found
himself. and he left petty politics and
factions behind him as he entered the
White House. The public was incred.
ulous at first, but was convinced at
last that he honestly meant to be pres
ident Of all the people.
Some Of his old associates In ma.
chine politics were as astonished at
the change that had come over their
"Chet" as Falstaff and his cr0nies
were when Prince Hal became King
Henry v. Not that the new president
coldly repealed the claims Of friend.
ship. He simply put first his obliga.
lions to the whole country, though It
cost him dear In the regard OF men
like Grant and Conkling, who set him
down as an migrate.
"Why, general, II you were still
president Of the New York County
Republican committee, you would be
here right now asking for this very
thing" protested the head Of that or.
