GOLCONDA STOCK AND THE CONSERVATIVE INVESTOR
UOLCONDA Stock has been and la the stock of the conservative investor. Ita
tremendous Improvements, its original known value and the fact that It will declare a
dividend in April, are proofs enough of ita intrinsic value. Nowhere In the world of
investments is stock backed by more tangible worth than it la In the Goloonda mlue.
This stock is COLLATERAL; it is secured by enough gold ore to pay dividends for a
generation, and a milling and hoisting plant woll able to turn the latent wealth luto
metalio gold.
Aa fiscal agont I have nevor hesitated in publicly expressing my utmost confidence
in the futuro of this groat mlno. I havo always considered that tho work accomp
lished by Messrs. English aud Son was merely preliminary. I consider their de
velopments moro scratching that proved tho valuo of this proporty. Their work mado
a fortune for them, but tho real values are now Iwlug uuoovorod aud tho enlarged
plaut will lucreaso tho production of this mlno whoro It will pay dividends com
mensurate with its mineral woalth.
Stockholders buying stock prior to tho declaration of dividends will recelvo tholr
proportionate share of tho earnings.
THIS IS STOCK IN A PRODUCING MINE THAT IS READY TO PAY DIVIDENDS
Investors who recogulzo a valuablo socurlty should procuro stock NOW. Tho
Golcouda has beou brought up to an industrial porlod and is ill tho same ranks as are
tho larger and more prosperous manufacturing enterprises of tho country.
If YOU wish further Information ou ths mlno, or wish to make your iuvostmout
