San Francisco Examiner: 1t used to
be o source of pride and profit for rail-
road man to be friend OF 1.-THE gov
ernor," az Senator Stanford was affec-
tionatsly called in the big establishment
at Fourth and Townsend streets. Now
the memory of tho late senator's friend
ship is almost as fatal to an employee OF
the Southern Pacific 90 memhership in
the All r. U. On thin point the Morn
ing CA3l observes:
Huntington has secured the Searles-
Hopkins interest in his movement for
cutting down expeuaes, and with Searles
as his friend he holds absolute power
over the Gestinies OF the Southern Pa
eihc compsny's management. Time
was when Senator Stanford was in con-
troll. The senator RENE bered men
who,tsr, any way beiriended him or IN
any way stood with him in his railroad
work,send lhose he rewarded with good
positions at Fourth and Townsend
streets. But the wheel OF fortune has
turned around, and Huntington Ia king
OF the eituation. There was no love be-
tween tho maosgements. So whenever
Stanford man is found his position lie
preoaHcrs nowadays.
The death OF stanford and the exten.
sion OF his partners cold, remorseless
maligni'y beyond the grave have broken
the last ties OF eympathy that made the
domination OF the Southern Pacific en-
durable to Californians. The Irish and
Scotch clansmen used to allow them-
eelves to he i,re9nrsd by their nut.ve
