A
WORD
Tbe unwary investor certainly |
must have w hard time of it justj
now to avoid being parted with bis
good money. There are a goodly
number of brazen attempts to foist
on tbe public at this time some of
the most questionable mining pro
positions it has been our lot to run
up against. We mention mining
because we have more to do with
this branch than we have with
others. There are more dangerous
investments outside of miuiDg than
there are in it, but there are alto
gether to many clothed with tbe
honest garment of miuiDg. And
the wonder of it is how tfcey succeed
in reaping in the shekels. Why
do men and women intrust tbeir
hard-earned money to men and
schemes, which bear upon their
face such statements as “ mountains j
and tons ot gold,” “ 100 per cent
interest,” and hundreds of such i
K\/
catchy phrases. I f they
would
stop for one moment and consider
they could cot, help but see tbe
ridiculousness of Rucli a statement.j
Verily tbe old and t»ue saying that
a sucker is born every minute’’ |
should be changed to “ ten” and ad- j
ded to “ that none of them ever die.”

Some months ago we placed a
lim ited number o f accounts of de
linquent subscribers to the L eader
in the hands o f the
National
Publishers Association atMineapol-
is lor collection, with instruction to
notify such subscribers to call at
this office and settle their accounts
but with the distinct understand
ing that no harsh means should
then be adopted : no threats o f suit
for collection or like means were to
be employed without our consent.
These instructions have been re
peatedly violated by the Publishers
Association and we have repeatedly
asked them to desist but apparent
ly without result, W e'have called
the attention o f our delinquent
subscribers to this state o f affairs
before and now repeat that you are
warned not to pay' to the National
Publishers association a cent on
our account. We will give a clean
receipt for all moneys paid direct
to us.
Now we are in need of ou" money
and must have what is due us.
Many o f our subscribers have not
paid us a cent for the past six yea rs.
This is certainly as long as you cm
expect us to carry you without a
remittance, and we wish you to con
sider this a personal appeal if you
are not square with us to come and
