men seem TO be OF opinion that 1t Is the
duty Of q government to feed or employ

shree or four bakers shops were pii'

The Final Stroke.

When the final blow is struck which shall
complete the grand tie of the east with the
west it will be Instantly announced at st.
Paul, Chicago, New York and in all the
leading cities of the United States. In
mediately upon the hammer coming in
contact with the golden spike ar
tillery will announce at all points
of these states at the supreme moment
the glorious fact. This will be accom-
plisheo by simple and ingenious con-
trivance. There will be a wire fastened to
the golden spike which will contiue to
Helena and return to the place where the
spike is being driven and will terminate
on the head of the hammar with which the
blow is to be struck. Immediately upon
the hammer coming into contact with the
golden spike the circuit will be complete
and the electric shock given. AT Helena will
be an automatic repeater which will in
stantly convey the shock tC another circuit
extending to Mandan, where another auto
matte repeater will send the swift winged
messenger through the wires to st. Paul,
and from st. Paul it will go on to Chicago,
Washington, New York, New Orleans, and
every other point. At the same time the
blow will in the same manner be announc-
ed at Portland, Oregon. At st. Paul and
Oregon and at New York the event will be
instantly announced to the public by the
discharge of cannon. This will be effect
ed in the following way: At st.
Paul cannon will be plac-
ed at Smiths point, near
the Northern Pacific offices and will be
connected with the offices by telepraphic
loop. Connected with dynamo at the
cannon will be platenum wire which will
pass through the touch hole" of the can
non into the powder; the dynamo will be
working, when the blow struck upon the
gotten spike with the hammer bringing
the two ends of the Geographic wire to-
gether and completing the Circuit, the
electricity will heat the platenum and DIS
charge the cannon. And although the
place where..the spike will be driven is up
wards of thousand miles from st. Paul
the cannon will be fired at the very instant
of time that the hammer strikes the golden
spike. This seems incredible to many
people and yet, although marvellous Is
simply explained. If a wire could be
placed girding the whole world without
obstruction and the two ends of the wire
were npon the same table message sent
by one hand of the operator would be re-
ceived by the other at the same moment,
not thousandth part of second inter
vening SO that the message traversed the

mote from the then settled portions of the
country, and little known to the
public, had, with the many other
favorable provisions of the charter, proved
insufficient to induce capitalists to embark
in the enterprise; more particularly so
because other roads to the Pacific were
able to offer not only their land grant
security, but also the bonds of the United
States. The memorialists solicited SINH
lar aid for the Northern Pacific in govern
ment bonds. Congress finally failed to
adopt legislation authorizing aid in gov
eminent issues, and in May, 1869, and Jan
uary, 1870, the company, then controlled
and directed by such men as j. Edgar
Thompson, president of the Pennsylvania
railroad, Thomas A. Scott, its vice presi-
dent; William B. Ogden, president of the
the Vermont Central; George W. Cass, of
the Pittsburg d Fort Wayne; B. P. Cheney,
of Boston, and William G. Fargo, of
Wells, Fargo & Co., made contract with
Jay Cook Co., then become eminent in
finance by their success in negotiat-
ing the war bonds of the government, to
act as the fiscal agents of the Northarn
Pacific.
Under the financial direction and con-
troll of Jay Cooke & Co., which lasted till
the fall of 1873, $SO,OOO,OOO of the COM
pany's bonds were negotiated, bearing
$40 per cent. interest, in gold. During
the same period there were completed and
put in operation 555 miles of road, viz:
the Minnesota division, from Thompson
junction to Fargo, 23O miles; the Dakota
division, from Fargo to Bismarck, 1876
miles; of the Pacific division, los miles
from Kalama to Tacoma; also, Jointly,
with the st. Paul & Duluth railroad, the
line from Thompson to Duluth, twenty
five miles.
In September, 1873, the house of jaw
Cooke q Co. suspended-a memorable
event, which precipitated general finan-
cial revulsion, sudden and enormous
contraction of prices anc values which had
obtained in the period of extravaganza
and imitation engendered by the war debt
and the paper issues of the government.
The failure of Jay Cooke & Co., involved
the speedy bankruptcy of the Northern

and the new wheat and pasture country
east of the Cascade mountains The en-
terprise was eminently successful. and Mr..
Willard conceived the mastery plan of
Joining tbs transportation lines thus estab-
llshed to the transcontinental trunk road
of the Northern Pacific, under a common
management, and making them its west
ern extensions and feeders. To carry out
this plan, he formed, in 1881. what was
known IN Wall street as the sblind pool.n
About ten millions of money were placed
IN his hands by leading bankers and
other capitalists without his giving
them definite information as to the use he
meant to make of it. He gave them, at
the time, only his personal receipt, without
security. With this money, and with his
own means, he quietly bought controlling
interest in North Pacific stock. In the
fall of 1881 he was chosen president of the
company. He had previously organized
the Oregon & Transcontinental company,
to build branches for the North Pacific,
and to hold large amount of the stock of
both that company and the Oregon Rail-
way & Navigation company. Mr.. Willard
has theoretically pushed forward to COM
pletion his entire system of roads, and will
have the satisfaction Of driving the last
spike of the North Pacific on the western
slope of the Rocky mountains early in
September.
In person, Mr.. Willard is tall and robust,
with broad shoulders, high expansive
forehead, blue eyes and brown hair. His
is frank and cordial. He lives on
Madison avenue, New York, and has
HOuse at Dobhs Ferry on the
Hudson. His wife is the daughter oe the
late William Lloyd Garrison, the devoted
champion of the anti-slavery movement
in the days before the war. His operations
in Wall street, while often bold and on a
large scale, are usually confined to pro-
tecting the stocks and advancing the
interests of the companies over which he
presides.
