~ FORGE w. HADLEY, who died at
list his home in this city last Tues
~ day night, after brief illness. Is
the subject of the accompanying half
tone cut. Mr.. Hadley had for some time
been In the employ of the city in the
street department. and during residence
of about twelve years in Seattle had
made many friends and acquaintance.
He was prominent In several social or
CARNATIONS and was Union veteran Of
the civil war. although not a member Of
either OF the local q. A. r. posts. In
Scranton. Pa, he was a member of Ezra
Griffin Post. G. A. r.
Mr.. Hadley was born In Schuylkili
county, Pa. June g. 1892 He was active
In his home community in social and busi-
ness matters. and was member of both
the ODD Fellows and the knights OF
Pythias. Soon after the. civil war broke
out he enlisted in the Seventy-seyenth
Pennsylvania volunteer regiment. and
served until the close OF hostilities like
many another good soldier. returning 10
his hons with a wound that never
ceased to trouble him to the day that
he died.
After the war ne became a member OF
the Thirteenth regiment Pennsylvania

was chosen to be one OF the special guards

pie. who will develop every foot Of ter
ritory. The prosperity Of one section will
mean the prosperity OF all. directly as well
as indirectly.
Our freight business with Seattle Is on
the increase, and so Is the passenger
travel. because the Pacific coast is rap
idly developing as tourist route. 1t Is
no longer California that is the sole at
traction to Eastern and continental tour
lists. but the Northern country also now
largely enters into travellers itinerary. so
that II they come to the Coast by way
OF California they surely return by ono
Of the Northern routes. or II they come
out over one OF the Northern routes. their
trip Is considered incomplete without
run down. to California and back East
over our line.
80 the whole proposition resolves itself
down to one OF mutual benefit to all the
railroads, as well as to all other business
interests entering into the question OF
travel or transportation.
There never was more prosperous
outlook for all transportation lines than
at present, especially now, with the hap
by results of the recent election. There
is going to be work, and plenty OF II. for
every line on the Pacific coast. and from
present indications should say that many
OF them will be taxed to their utmost
carrying capacity. 1t means plenty and
prosperity for everybody, and of course
we'll see that the Southern Pacific gets
its full share OF the business. at least
what belongs to II legitimately''
