The progressive farmer. [volume] (Winston, N.C.) 1886-1904, 1903-01-06

President Castro, the South Amer,
lean Dictator, whose recent defiance
of two world powers has so aston
ished Europe, is, in truth, an extra
ordinary man. Measuring but five
feet four inches in height, lame, of
humble origin, uneducated, and es-
sentially ignorant of all the refine
ments of western culture, he is none
the less one of the most forceful
men Venezuela has produced since
the days of Bolivar. He won his
way sword in hand to the Yellow
House, or Presidents Mansion of
Caracas. He has met pressure from
abroad by insulting first France, then
the United States, and now Germany
and Great Britain. His latest def

nouncement of his success. It~was
inevitable that in the FIVE years of
his brilliant work he should be sub
jected to those ungenerous attacks
that seem to dog the steps of every
inventor of an epoch-making device.
To read these criticisms, one would
think that Marconi had invented
nothing at all, and that to the army
of imitators or emulators that have
gathered in his train, all the credit
belongs; and yet the fact remains
that he was the first man to show
the commercial possibilities of wire
less telegraphy, and that he has
passed from his first crude expert
ments to his present marvellous tri-
umph, with a swiftness and a com
pleteness without a parallel in the
history of invention. What Stephen
son was to the locomotive, Edison
to the electric light, and Bell to the
telephone, Marconi will be, as long
a. history is written, to wireless
te~legraphy. Other systems with more
or less claims to utility have been
industriously developed by their va
rious sponsors. In this country the
DeForest type seems easily to lead
its competitors in the practical re-
suits accomplished. It has done good
work in the naval maneuvers, and it
is having a fair amount of general
commercial success. Fessenden,
moreover, has secured his patents
during the year, and has achieved
encouraging results, particularly in
respect of speed of transmission;
while Professor Pupin's system of
resonance or tuning, appli-
cation for. patents on which was
made as far back as 1894, has now
been protected by the Patent Office,
and he has concluded arrangements
with the Marconi Company by which
they are granted exclusive license in
this country. Fessenden uses a form
of receiver which he calls a "wave
.detector," that gives promise of muck
greater rapidity than the old coheref.

railway company with the rights to
convey it the same as any other prop
erty. This official conveyance of it
to the Moffatt road was recently made
in Grand county and how it stands
ON the records as the property of the
Denver, Northwestern g. Pacific.
The right of way would permit of
the construction of a cutoff from
Kremmling. ON the Moffatt road, to

and would give the Gould road a
straight entrance into Denver without
the necessity of the big loop down by
way of Pueblo. Only about 80 miles
of construction would be necessary to
make the connection between the two
roads and if built at once would open

tinental traffic year and half be-
fore the line to Salt Lake is complet-
ed Mr. Moafftt in outlining the pol
icy of his road, said that he would be
open to all other lines and that any
road could run it's trains over the Den
yer, Northw estern & Pacific. He stat
ed it as his belief that such policy
these days.
The presence of the Gould repre-
sentatives in Colorado so frequently
of late has caused various reports of
what they We're figuring upon. 1t is
not known whether these visits had
anything to do with the opening up
of main line through Denver or
not. Mr.. Gould made a sudden visit
to Colorado, accompanied by his vice
president and general manager, Rus
sell Harding. A few days later the
head of his financial interests, the
head of his legal department and his
personal representatives came to Den
yer, presumably on a visit, and now
comes the announcement that Vice
President Russell Harding is coming
here to spend week.
Few people will believe that these
visits just happened and that there is
not some object fruther than yet an
nounced behind them. DIR. King treas
urer of the Missouri Pacific, stated
that the extension of the Missouri Pa
cific into Denver would not take place
until after the work in Ark ansas and
Missouri was completed. If it is the
intention of the Rio Grande to come
into Denver over the Moffatt road,
there is little doubt that the main
line of the Missouri Pacific would

now more than ever.

Read what the Denver Times SAYS
of the new arrangement and then see
if you are not believer in the say
ing that all roads lead to this city.
The Denver. Northwestern & Pa
cific has recently purchased the right
of way for connection with the Dem
yer 81 Rio Grande in Eagle county,
Colorado. 1t is considered an au-
thentic indication that @. K. Dur
bins prediction before the Chamber
of Commerce that the Denver & Rio
Grande would come into Denver over
the Moffat road came from an official
source. The most surprising part
about the transaction is that it is the
Denver, Northwestern, g. Pacific and
not the Denver s. Rio Grande which
has obtained the right of way the en-
tire distance from Grande county to
the connection in Eagle county. This
right of way does not touch Route
county at all. 1t starts at the top of
the range east of Hot Sulphur Springs
and goes down the Fraser valley to
the Grand river, down the Grand
river through both canons to a point
in Eagle county.
