PHILIP j. HAVER.
The Architect and Builder of His
Own Fortunes,

In the busy life OF this city Philip j. Haver
has taken active part for many years, the best
years of his life having been spent In San Fran
cisco.
Twenty years ago Mr.. Haver left his native
city, Rochester, n Y. when but IL years old.
and has remained here ever since.
His first work was as carpenter and machin-
list at the Centennial Planing-mill. Possessing
pluck and confidence in himself as mechanic,
and by attending Eight school studying archi-
lecture, he soon made himself skilled work
man and step by step worked his way up to
foreman and commanded the highest wages or
more than twelve years.
Mr.. Haver was not one to rest satisfied, how
ever. with subordinate position, good as 1t
might be, so he made the venture and certainly
has no reason TO regret il. We can best appre-
ciae his work when we consider the cOmpet-
ton in his business. ines have been very de.
pressed. but he met all this resolutely, and as
consequence OF endeavors he has gained the
respect and confidence of all who know him,
and more particularly those familiar with his
special merits.
Such men as Mr.. Haver comprise the best
element OF our citizens. They have the brains,
courage and industry TO build up their business,
and In doing so they are advancing this city
and State. To day he is well established as an
architect and builder and very fayoraDly
garded. A young nian, ambitious and pushing.
he Will undoubtedly have notable career and
attain rank With the leaders in the archil lecture
ana building trade. Such is certainly the hope
OF himself ana all who know him, for he is cor
daily liked, and by none more so than by his
employees.
Ar. Haver has taken little part I'm societies or
politics, has very good tenor voice, trained by
the late Karl tormes, and has often been
tempted 10 go on the operate stage, but his busl
ness has called for all his at ention and this he
has given TO IL very willingly. Home life. how
ever, had always greater charms for him than
societies, for he is student, always reading
and learning 10 do better. H believes, as Glad

special distinction in the last Legislature by his
persistent and able advocacy OF the rights of
the people rs against the supremacy of that
powerful and unscrupul0us mouoply which
ihrottles the State like the embrace of an oc-
topus. He earned wide popularity and greatly
increased the regard in which his fine abilities
had been held by his consistent and uncompro-
missing course against what he rightly regards
as the curse OF The Stale. He is an anti-mo-
nopoly man TO the bacN bone, and is so ont
