that there ettll are a great many re

are either ehjit down, oa short time or

In self -protection, required payment of
loans at a rata that caused hardship all
along tha line. The recent agreement
of tha currency commission of the Am
erican Bankers' association upon a new
currency plan embracing all of the
needed features of elasticity and great
er security now promises to bring U
pass some serious consideration by con
gress of the financial question. When
congressmen begin hearing from the
business men, which Includes farmers

really take up for auoptlon this cur

Tha fact that no bier woolen mills have
been started near ths big woolen goods

W. H. Man'sa, industrial commissioner
of Chicago. "Wool freights from Blll

Every . day. now, tha Congressional
Record contains a long speech delivered

of members, who were busy writing at
their desks and paying less heed to tha
orator than they did to tha king of tha

n tha government printing office at a
low price, and then "franked1, out to
admiring constituents, who, receiving

are here know, tha progressiva element
In ths national congress haa about aa
much ehanca to accomplish needed for

average experience could alt down to
day and write "advance copy" of a story
telling the record of the first sesstos
of ths slxtlem congress. He need only
leave blank the spaces devoted 10 the
sums appropriate for expenses, fill
these In by wire to hla paper and go on
a vacation for tha remainder of ths

who inhabit the press galleries blush

Recital at Eilers.
Despite the inclement weather a large
audience waa present at the recital
given by fillers piano house at their
recital hall Friday evening at which
Charles Cutter, baritone, was soloist.
Mr. Cutters baritone voice waa very
much enjoyed, particularly in the Ar
morer's song from Robin Hood and the
Arabian romance by Couchols. The ac
companiments for Mr. Cutter were
played with the pianola as well as a
group of pif .0 solos embracing s wide
range of music from the dainty ballet
of Chamlnade to the ponderous Don
Jusn fantasia of Liszt. Tnese recitals,
while primarily given for the purpose
of demonstrating the capabilities of the
pianola, are becoming more popular
each season as everyone attending is
always assured of a most enjoyable
musical evening. The soloist for Fri
day, February 7, will be Miss M. Evelyn
Hurley, contralto.

What
Ross R. Craddock
Says About
Denny Dulin :
"I have no hesitation in recommending the Denny
Dulin group of claims to anyone looking for a bona
fide mining investment, and, if the work of exploita
tion is conducted on scientific and businesslike lines,
handsome profits may confidently be looked forward to."
,V V : .
' "J
. f '
i
Mr. Craddock is a consulting mining engineer and metallurgist of
note and when he volunteers a statement of any kind looking for
ward to the probable profit of a mining property under his examina
tion it is a safe bet that his judgment will be confirmed later by the
facts. It ia seldom that Mr. Craddock makes as strong a statement
about any property as is quoted from his report in the above lan
guage Mr. Craddock's indorsement, therefore, is valuable, providing
the DENNY DULIN mine is conducted along scientific and business
like lines. '
It is with pardonable pride, consequently, that we announce that
we have followed Mr, Craddock's advice in the development of the
mine, applying every scientific device and method within the knowl
edge of the practical men who are managing this property. With
respect to the business-like management of the company, no further
evidence of our sincerity along this line is obtainable than the mere
statement that the following well-known business men of Portland are
the officers and directors of the company
ALEX SWEEK. President.
I. ARONSON, Vice-President.
GEORGE T. MURTON, Secretary and Treasurer.
DR. SANFORD WHITING, Director.
J. H. YATES, Director.
DENNY DULIN is beyond the prospect stage. The ore is in sight,
a large body having been uncovered at the bottom of the incline shaft,
105 feet deep. Ore assaying all the . way from $15 to $75 per ton is -ready
to be hoisted to the surface, shipped to the reduction plant, a
few miles distant, and the proceeds divided among the stockholders. '
The hoisting machinery is ready to install when the funds are suffi-
cient. The time is ripe for this investment. Only a few weeks wilt
place this stock in safety deposit vaults, where it will stay. Ninety,
days from now none of it will be purchasable at any price.
NOTE THIS: The man with an investing turn of mind seldom
finds as excellent a proposition as this: Most people wait, fearing to ?
venture in the early stages of a mining proposition. Those who wait '
for a long time never get in on the ground floor of a good oppor- ;
tunity. When they are ready to invest, they find that the stock they
wished to buy has been taken from the market. Those who. buy while
stock is purchasable at a low price usually find that most of their
investments prove successful. The man or woman who will. get ac- "
quainted with DENNY DULIN now will reap benefit! that he would'
have mourned to the last day of his life had he refused to buy when
he. did. '
Learn all about DENNY DULIN by calling at our office. We
have samples of DENNY DULIN ore, reports of engineers, letters
and figures that will stand the test. Learn the facts and you will soon
own a com fortable, income-bearing block of DENNY 'DULIN
STOCK. This stock, right now, is TEN CENTS A. SHARE. Pay
for it on easy terms if you like, or 5 per cent discount on a 1,000-
share cash purchase. , , Z y
