How do they do it? The report OF
the receiver of the Cooperative So
ciety of America, Chicago finan-
cial corporation, shows that out of
$28,0O0,O00 subscribed to the stock
of this financial institution, only
SIG remains. If the society had
been robbed by a gang of bandits,
who took all the money in sight,
they would have missed more
than SIG in the getaway. By the
way, good many of the stock pro-
motion schemes are a good deal on
the order OF Ibanditry. The only diff
ference Dis that they pick the bones
cleaner and come out picking their
teeth with no one in pursuit. II CON
victed, which is seldom, these high
grade criminals get nice clerical DO
sitions in the pen, with a Christmas
or Fourth Of July pardon in season
to get home for the holidays. In
some respects the real bandit who
stops you on the street and goes
through you for what you have is a
real hero compared to the clerical
looking confidence sharpers who
bleed the people for the savings of
a life time and leave SO little swae
behind that the courts officers can
not find a days pay apiece for the
searching OF the premises.
