Bead what an investor has to say to a friend about the Highland. It pleases me very much To learn that you are already a Highland Stockholder. In regard to buying a mine out there, I had several chances, but rejected them all. If I only wanted to sell stock, there were plenty of claims to be had for a few dollars which I could have incorporated a company on, but I wanted to be suie that those to whom I .sell stock will be benefitted in the transaction. I feel satisfied that the Highland stock Will be worth many, many times more than its piesent value, and there is nothing in the Sumpter district that equals the Highland Mine. The Highland must be seen In order to be appreciated. You will do far better with your money by buying Highland Stock than buying Sumpter prospects. This mine has everything necessary and ' essential for cheap mining, such as water power, timber, market advantages and transpor tation facilities. It has more pay shoots than any other single mine, the ore is base, which proves it to be permanent, as that kind of a vein filling comes from below. A man cannot find anything better Than the Highland to invest in, especially considering the fact thar the Highland is managed by capable and conservative mining men. Eight people from my state have been out to look over the Highland, and every one of them speaks of the property in the highest terms. I assuse you that if I was not absolutely sure that Highland stock would make money for my clients I would not be selling it. Go out there yourself And you will be satisfied. You will see that it is the largest mine there, having the longest and richest pay shoots. I consider that it is a great investment even at qo cents per share, and in my judgment the time is not far distant when it will be sought for at that figure. The company could start in to ship High grade ore to the smelter at once, as there is a large amount already on the dump which can be shipped.
