Stockholders: ‘The stockholders of amining or other stock company have just as much right to know al! ) about the company’s affairs as has the presil nt, seereta’y or any other member of the organization, Every stockhoulér in a mining company is @ member of the company just as surely as is every owner ina commer cial firm a member of that firm. It is true that the stockholders ina mining company votes for the officer of the company, and in doing 80 authorizes the officers tonct for him’ in their several official capacities, but . nofu:ther, The officers of a mining coinpany properly are the serv— antsof the company, and have. no ‘thore right to know what is taking place at_themines, or in other depart: ments of the company’s affairs than has the smallest stockholder,” __A.C, Rauschenberz, a member of.
