THE biographer of Jay Gould will
write of the most daring, brilliant and
successful speculator of his age. He
will write of a man who had as dis
tlnctive a genius for money getting as
had Napoleon for war, or has Edison
for mechanical invention. 4 man as
famous as the most famous of his time,
vet personally little known. Gould's
great qualities were an indomitable will,
iron pertinacity, miraculous foresight,
and lightning rapidity Of action. He
was handicapped in his youth by scanty
means and all his life by delicate health.
He accumulated alarge fortune because
he wanted the money, but he accumu-
lated vast fortune simply because of
his love of overcoming difficulties. He
was not reckless for he trusted nothing
to chance. He was not self indulgent
or vain, for with unbounded wealth he
remained plain citizen of the simplest
habits. He was generous, dispensing
large sums of money in charities, of
which the world knew nothing, and
standing by his friends in financial
difficulties.
In private life the King of Finance
was so abstemious that he used no wine
or tobacco. 1t is said that his recrea-
tions were literature and flowers. He
undoubtedly had the qualities to have
made success with higher things than
grasping money. No doubt he was not
good man. He probably had only
about as much conscience as is necessary
for successful stock speculator. He
played with stock sharps at their own
tricks and his superior sharping won
He was not the deep, bledyed william
that he is so generally represented
About half the turgid rhetoric with
which he is abused is only chaff to catct
the ears of the groundlings. But he is
not except in few Of his traits fl
model for aspiring youth.

If the Democratic leaders of the House
and Senate can so shape legislation as
to please the free traders, the revenue
tariff people, the populists and the
socialists, they will possess greater
wisdom than Solomon. Yet all these
discordant elements must be harmoniZed
if the administration of Cleveland is a
success. As each one of these is opposed
to all the others. the pickle in which the
Democracy will find themselves is at
once apparent.

ADDITIONAL LOCAL.
Gould and the G. & P.


1t may be interesting to recall that Jay
Gould once owned-or, at least controlled
the Cleveland and Pittsburgh railroad
In speaking ofthis investment he always
insisted that he had merely taken the
stock to oblige friend, who bad over
loaded himself with it and was on the
point of failure. However that may be
he made good road of it. He bought
25,OOO shares at 65 or TO- He reorganized
the road, developed its earning capacity
so that from the beginning to the end OF
his management it never passed divi-
dend When its stock was worth 120 he
leased it to the Pennsylvania company
realizing certainly between a million and
a half and two millions on the transaction
