BEWARE

Beware Of the stock peddler! Be ware of the man who promises you riches quickly. Beware of the man who offers you more than a legitimate income on your money.
 That does not mean that people should not take a risk where large profits would be the reward ol sue cess and total loss the price of failure. But one should never risk more than he can afford to lose. And never should he take a risk unless he knows who are behind the proposition, and all that is to be known about it. The man who grubstakes prospectOr takes a risk. but he Knows the pros pector and knows he will get an hon. est run for his money, and he knows something of the chances for the sue cess of the man who goes forth in search of gold, silver, copper or some other natural resources
 When an outsider comes :n;o Alas ka to raise money, remember that he came from a country where there is much more money for investment than there is in Alaska, and ii his rroposi- tion were certain one ne would not be here. His stock would all be taken down there where so much money is seeking investment. Therefore, you are gambling when you buy his offer ings. And when you gamble in the capital stock of a company that is still in the hands of the promoters you are not only taking a risk on lhe prac- ticability of the proposition but on the honesty and competency of it's man. agement, on it's ability to finance it. self adequately, on a thousand and one contingencies.
 There are many opportunities in Alaska for one to get action on money with which he may be willing to take risk. They are offered in connec- tiOn with our mineral timber. fisher. ies, fur and other resources. and the money will be risked in combinations where the people who will handle it are known and where one may get a chance to look at the proposition once in a while. There are frequently op portunities for the use of money iu Alaska, where there is bright promise for large returns and very little risk There are nearly always absolutely safe investments where the returns are legitimate.
 A very safe rule, if you have money to invest. is to talk with your banker first. It would be well to talk witf him before gambling with your money Juneau Empire.
