•
They bear examination and comparison better, It to
believed, than any other nose before the public. In the
fixed and unchangeable Moments of Safety, Security and
Profit.
They bear good interest—soyen per cent. gold for forty
Years--and are secured by a Sinking Fund and Filet
Mortgage upon the road, Its outfit and net Income, the
franchises, and all present and future acquired property
of the Company.
They depend upon no now or half settled territory for
business to pay their interest.but upon an old,well•settled
and productive country—assuming that -a railroad built
through the heart of such a region offers bettor Security
for both interest and Principal than a road to be built
through the most highly extolled wilderness or sparsely
settled territory.
This Railroad possesses special advantages in rannlm,
into and out of the city of Chicago, an important railroad
and commercial centre ; in running through a line of vil
lages and old farming settlements in tire richest portion
of the State of Illinois ; in running near to depoaita of
iron ore of great extent and value, and over broad Gelds
of the beet coal In the State, which mining Interests:are
its monopoly. ' And,imaides the local and other busineas
thus assured; there will be attracted to this road the con
siderable traffic already springing up "From the Lakes
to the * Gulf," as with its Southern connections it forms a
Trunk Line 45 miles shorter than any other route from
Chicago to Nashville.
These Bonds are therefore based upon a Reality and
business that a few years must inevitably double—and
competent judges say treble—m'value.
Governments selling while the price is high pay we/ 11
