This charge of fraud and wrong
constituted the great foundation stone
upon which was constructed all anti
railroad sentiment and which was re-
lied upon as the reasonable basis of
all the anti-railroad antagonism. For
more than a generation this cry
that the Government had been de-
frauded, that it would never see a re-
turn of the money it had invested, has
infused an attribute of bitterness
which has poisoned the political life
of California and obstructed the de-
velopment here Of beneficial enter
prise.
The malignity of opposition to the
Central Pacific Railroad Company
and subsequently to the Southern Pa
cific Company, with which the political
and social life of California has been
saturated, has so far influenced the
character of our people; SO antagon-
lied capital and SO far threatened en-
terprise. as to. be the one leading cause
of the tardy development of Pacific
Coast industries and commerce
To-day we are confronted by the ac-
complished fact C. p Huntington
and his associates received at the
hands Of the Government in the way
of an extension of credit in 1862 and
in 1864 a vast sum of money, the re-
payment of which has appeared to
minds unfamiliar with the magnitude
of modern financial methods an i'm
possibility. 1t was an instance of the
smaller capacity measuring the cap
ability of larger capacities by it's own
diminutive standard.
The task of construction was stupen-
dous: but the greatest problem it's solu-
ton involved related to the organization
of it's finances This task the master
mind Of c. P. Huntington accomplished
But, however great the financial or the
physical task involved by the original
construction of the road, the final task
of the repayment to the Government of
the indebtedness secured by that enter
prise was far more stupendous This
has been accomplished. The Govern
ment to-day is in possession of securi-
ties equal in value to it's Indebtedness,
securities which in the markets of the
world could be cashed tomorrow and
the Treasury of the United States reim-
bursed for all the aid extended by it
to the completion of the pioneer over
land railroad
In this closing transaction of one Of
the greatest financial undertakings the
world has ever known, c. P. Hunting
ton has acquired an eminence which
will remain monument to his genius,
to his honesty and to his superlative
administrative ability. From its haz-
ardous inception to its triumphant COM
pletion it indicates with unmistakable
certainty the existence behind the whole
enterprise of personality possessing
completely rounded greatness. AS the

cific territory urged upon the atten-

of this great national work. Before
it's appalling magnitude the nation
stood in mute embarrassment. The
world had not experience of stupendous
financial undertakings. The rows OF
figures which ran into millions, tens
of millions and hundreds of millions
were not familiar to the eye, nor the
amounts they expressed plausible TO
the understanding.
In this emergency four Californians
We're found possessing the intrepid dar-

They essayed the task of contendiny

The settlement of the debt due to the

closes a remarkable chapter in the his
tory of the men of the Pacific Coast,
as well as in the record of the material
development of this State.
To-day the nation is in the throeS OF

maxim of Roman craftsmanship that
Men do most resemble the gods when

The statesmen of former periods Of
our history We're fully conscious OF the
great truth that all organisms live by
progress; that stagnation means death.
that arrested development is followed
by decay; that upon the great stage OF
national existence all nations in the
present as in the past have their choice
between absorbing or being absorbed.
In pursuance of this higher wisdom
the statesmen of half a. century ago ac-

Prevent
Pneumonia

Prevention is always better than
cure, even when cure is possible.
But so many times pneumonia is not
cured that prevention becomes the
natural act of that instinct of self
preservation which is the first law
of nature" Pneumonia can be pre-
vented and is often cured by the use
of Ayers Cherry Pectoral.
"Some years ago / had severe cold and

MARTIN WINS HIS CASE.
He Will Get the Farm Gallogly
Promised Him.

Judge Gaddis of Woodland has rem
dered a decision for the plaintiff in the
case of James Martin VS.. M. A. Howard,
administrator of the estate Of James
Gollogly, deceased.
The complaint alleged that Gallogly
and his wife took plaintiff at the age of
Z years, his mother having died. and
promised his father to care for him as
their own child and bequeath to him
their property; that he lived with them
during their lives. rendering them such
service as children do their parents,
and also contributing mney to pay for
the farm; that Gallogly and his wife
told many persons that they would
leave the property to plaintiff and after
their death he continued in possession
of it.
1t also alleges that Gallogly died in
testate and Howard was appointed adj
ministrator and assumed possession of
the property. 1t therefore asks that
the court order the Clerk of the court
to execute a conveyance of the prop
erty to plaintiff.
