In the current number of The Forura Is an article by l.ouls Windmueller of th tlrm of Louis Windmueller Roel ker, In which he makes an Interesting and instructive comparison of the panlo of 1867 and the panlo that lately dls- lurneci an street. "The 1U07 flurrv." he says. "wJ not so bad as that of IH1, although busi ness recovered rapidly from ths a-llsr irouuio, ana in ioos most or me nouneo that had failed ware able to resume. Of 1867 h says: "Prosperity revived sooner than we had antlclnated : br the credit we ex tended to deserving customers we laid an early foundation for a long continued goou uusiiiesa. "That short nanlc had been caused by premature expenditure for railroads built to devuloD a new territory. Col onlsta could not be Induced to settle along lines as 'ast as promoters ex pscted, ajid western merchants had been more lavish than mudont In srajulng long creuits to newcomers. When the crone wure gathered and gold began to pour In from California and from Europe the confidence re turned und the crlHls was forgotten." Of the panlo of liiuT Mr. Windmueller writes: "Under the maanetlc Influence of Charles T. barney the Knickerbocker Trust company had prospered until Its 1100 shares rose to 11.200. sjid ths divi dends Increased from H per cent to 60 per cent per annum. But a considerable part of the deposits of sixty millions was udvanced on property that at me time had no readv market value. As soon as the Bank of Commerce realized tho situation It refused to clear for the Knickerbocker. "WUen this Influential Institution was cunpelled to suspend the panic spread o r the country. i tie manifold effects startled tne community. It goes without saying that speculators were the first to suf fer, une of the plutocrats whose prop erty had shrunk some twenty-five mil lions in March became desperate when October pured a few more from his cherished estate. Ha lay hopelessly down to die, and his heirs found that he had left about twenty-flvo millions Instead of the fifty that they expected. "Win n ordinary millionaires' reached the etid of their liquid resources they sold their autos and discharged their aeivants. Bo many took the first op portunity to pass out of existence that conservative life Insurance companies were compelled to turn down the ap plications of all speculators. "In March lossea of the operators coul.l be kept secret; ashamed of their holdings, they spoke of them In whis pers oi ly. But toward the end of 1907 it became Impossible for them to hide their perplexity. During a short trip across Ihe ocean by a member of the triumvirate of "scnemlls" who expected to rule the market with the bank shares thev acquired on installments, an In quisitive Kheriff broke into his divers strong boxes and found in them all to1 get her $ too worth of available assets. "This captain of Industry claimed the control of coi potations capitalized at one hundred millions! "As Die writer saw doors of many financial institutions besieged by de positors, he was reminded of similar scenes in bygone days. Impatient men, with the same anxious faces, were again kepi In Hue by Ihe same patient police. Soma were solicitous enough to pay pre miums for advanced positions, and had time to regret the folly when they found that. In suite of scandal mongers, the bank resolutely declined to suspend. "Keen brokers watched the hoarders who were successful In drawing money, and followed them to their safe deposit vaults; thev persua.jed them there To part in consideration of a premium with their currency for checks. 'The paucity of commercial failures In the face of compulsory retrenchment has demonstrated tnat American mer chants who confine themselves to legiti mate business are worthy of confidence. On the security which the New York clearing house accepted for certificates during the panic more than 70 per cent consisted of commercial paper, which was paid as It matured. "Speculators and politicians may look upon present conditions according to their respective Interests; with boun teous harvests In prospect and the evi dent return of confidence. prosperity cannot be far distant.

About n hundred mil lions were neoded t take the place of hoarded money, this vast amount was obtained without difficulty. ln conse quence of these rimftn our panic has been grievously frit in the remotest fiarts of the globe, hut at the same time t has demonstrated the financial Strength of the country" THEATRICAL .VOTES.

Kill fill THE GENEROSITY OF NATURE has never been more thoroughly exemplified than in the development of our properties, and it is to our future interest, as well as in accord with our disposition, to give our stock-holders a full measure of this gift of nature Price of Stock After September 10, 1908 25 Cents PER SHARE NEW PROFITS DEVELOPED Our superintendent at the mines keeps us fully informed as to development work, and sends us samples whenever there is a change in the character of ore. Samples sent us a few days ago show good values in copper. This is in addition to our values in gold, silver and lead, and shows us that we are constantly nearing the zone of high-grade values so numerous in this wonderful Coeur d'Alene district, where the prospectors and ordinary miners be come millionaires and captains of finance. PROUD NATURE does not like to be. slighted, and when she ex tends her hands, beckons us on to her treasure vaults and invites us to partake of her generosity she does so with all good intent, and we must show our appreciation of this invitation bv following with quickened footsteps. This is what we have done ana. what we are now doing, and at Jst reward is within reach, and we are being led to the proof and truthfulness of the predictions made in the report of Captain H. D. Wil liams, our consulting engineer. CAPTAIN H. D. WILLIAMS has agreed to take personal charge and supervision of the further development of our properties, and the installation of machinery and equipment. His confidence in our prop erties is well shown in the fact that three sevenths of his salary is paid him in stock of the company. Hence it is up to Captain Williams to open up our ore bodies as soon as possible and put us upon a dividend basis without delay, in order that this stock reaches its par value of $1.00 per share at the earliest possible time and then continue to advance. The larger the dividends, the more he. will receive from his stock, and each of our stockholders will receive a like profit. t PUBLIC CONFIDENCE has very much favored us, for we have received a large patronage from the investors, and, with the exception of a few thousand shares, the entire allotment of stock at 10 cents per share has been taken, and applications for stock are still coming in more nu merous than ever. The increase in our stock sales, as well as the groat improvement and increased values of our properties, as the result of our constant de velopment work, proves to us that we should not have so long delayed advancing the price of our stock, and had we not already notified our eastern representatives and made publication of a fixed date, we would have changed the date from September 1" August '!, on account of PRESENT PRICE OF SHARES TERMS OF PAYMENT AND S 25.00 will buy 50.00 will buy 60.00 will buy 70.00 will buy 80.00 will buy 90.00 will buv 250 shares 500 shares 600 shares 700 shares 800 shares POO shares $ 2..'0 ra h a:vl $ 2. 5.i"'0 cah a::d .V0O 6.

WE WILL PUBLISH ENGINEER'S REPORT, so that aH may know the present as well as the future values of our properties, and so that they may readily leam why our engineer accepts three sevenths of his salary in stock. This report will show you that we have not in creased the price of our stock to its true value by one half. Its price could justly be 50 cents per share. You should meet our engineer and converse with him regarding our early dividend stage ami our possi bility f t paying 100 per cent dividends on the par value of our stock. It would not Mirprise us if our stock sold readily, upon its true and un exaggerated merits on actual ore values blocked out and on dividends paid, for $5.00 or $6.00 per share inside of 12 months. This is what our neighboring properties have done, and this is what we look for. Our engineer's report will be published in the Telegram of August 2M, and in The Journal of August 30. Don't fail to read this report. ADVANCE IN PRICE is not equal to advance in values and, while our stock will advance from time to time, we do not expect the advance to eqi.a! it real value for some months to come not, at least, until it lias rra.-lwd above par; then we propose to put a price on our stock tu.lv eq'.:a! to its true value, as shown by our properties, their ore bodies and their productive ability and dividend payments. At that stage the investor in our stock will have to pay true value; but until then the pp- rf.r.r.y for exorbitant and unlimited profits will be open to him. and v. e v:j continue to invite him to join with r.s in receiving h;s portion of nature's generosity in the distribution of her golden wealth.
