Warning by Moses Thompson targets Minneapolis stock and New Mexico property
A Chicago Tribune advertisement signed Moses Thompson warns against buying stock in a Minneapolis mining company due to unsettled litigation and then broadside warns against corporate property in New Mexico. The note lacks specifics, but is framed as a general assault on territory corporate property, with insinuations about prior swindling schemes and possible connections to figures like S. M. Folsom. The piece suggests a pattern of dubious activity and notes related incidents in the region, including a fatal bank robbery and mining news from Arizona and Alaska.
