TOO RICH TO MARRY"

When Edwin Owings Towne wrote
the beautiful comedy, "Too Rich to
Marry" he did not do so in hit or
miss manner. He wrote it with a
thorough knowledge of the people
whose odd ways he was borrowing to
furnish the comedy in the piece
The beliefs of the religious sect
known AS Dunkards. their quaint
characteristics, and their queer ideas
OF the world, afforded Mr.. Towne
plenty of humorous situations and
enough pathos to make his comedy
highly entertaining, and far above the
average in quality.

ciic, he said would have left the Great
Northern in helpless condition because
orally responsible for two hundred mill
lions, that being the purchase price of the
Burlington stock, and ii the Northern
Pacific owned joint interest in the DEAL
they would be responsible for one half
OF that amount, but if the Northern Paci-
fic was in the hands of a rival trans
francisco and from Omaha through the
Platte Valley to San Francisco they could
influence the Burlington to help their
Southern interests and would be in a
position to prevent the building up or aid
ing the development of the Northwest
that the Great Northern had worked so
long and hard to establish.
The gist Of Mr.. Hills testimony during
the two days he was on the stand was
that the organization of the Northern Sc
curities company was in no sense a re-
ern and Northern Pacific and Burlington
were operated separately and independ-
emily. That there was no actual merger,
but that their working together was Of
rates had been reduced as the result Of
this cooperation, and could and would
be still further reduced as tariff increases.
That the whole proposition was within
the law in every respect. That the pur-
chase Of the stock of the Northern Securi-
ties company was open to any one who
had the money to pay for it and could
agree with the owners to the price
That there was no combinatio or agree
ment expressed or implied, but that the
corporation was simply holding COM
pany, really for the purpose of making the
property it holds have greater stability
and not likely to be purchased by parties
to use to destroy other property; in fact
that the whole movement would prove
most advantageous to the Northwest
Cost of the railroad and equipment hav-
ing been incurred, the great increase Of
tonnage and business growing out Of the
Burlington purchase and protecting it
against adverse interests would Increase
earnings, make lower rates possible and
thus induce settlement of the country.

featuring and agricultural interests.

creased and benefited. I can imagine
none.
He further explained that the reason
why they had not begun this earlier was
because it was a very large undertaking
for the Great Northern road alone, and
that the Northern Pacific was just em-
merging from an embarrassment which
made it inexpedient for it to join.
The question Of a holding company was
not part of the Burlington transaction. 1t
was not discussed or thought of; neither
was there any purpose at that time to
secure control Of the Northern Pacific
stock.
He said one of the Great Northern d.
rectors raised the question that inaSnuch
as the purchase of the Burlington stock
and the creation of a bond to pay for 1t,
involved the point and several liability of
the entire amount of the purchase. it was
a matter of consequence to the Great
Northern to know that the Northern Pa
cihc would not pass into the hands of
people who might be interested in other
directions.
He did not think that any of the officers
of the Northern Pacific company had any
thing to do with organization Of the
Northern Securities company. The North
ern Securities company simply bought the
stock of the Northern Pacific from the
people who owned it. The corporation did
not own any stock that he was aware Of
and at any rate, it did not sell any stock
to the Northern Securities company. His
own sales and those Of his immediate
friends, the eleven parties he had named
were absolute without any condition or
trust or implied agreement or anything
else. There was no unders landing as to
how the Northern Securities company
should vote the stock-no condition of
any kind attached to the sale. The sale
; was not the result of any agreement with
each other.
