with the situation and afford to the many holders adequate outlets. There are few or no per- manent Investors in the Colony, and there are therefore great and frequent fluctuations in. values. The ever changing nature of the popu- tion is constantly throwing shares and stocks upon the market, quite apart from the operations of sneculative dealers, and thus very valuable opportunities are constantly being offered to buyers with capital at command.
The Company will, it is hoped, not merely secure reasonable profits for is shareholders,, but will confer a benefit on the shareholding community generally by steadying the local markets and ensuring them against violent Auctuations.
