But whatever safeguards are
placed about the railroad business
by law, we ought not to lose sight
of the fact that the railroad is alb
solutely Indispensable to modern
civilization. w of America
should be proud of our develop
ment in this respect. Vanderbilt
started on a capital of $500 saved
up by his wife; and from this in
significant nucleus came the New
York Central and its allied lines
embracing $4,000 miles of railroad
and handling about $4,000 cars.
The great Pennsylvania road was
started over half a century ago.
To day it moves as much freight
ia an hour as it did then in year.
La 1852 il handled half a million
passengers a year; now it handles
about 45O,OOO,000. 1t has overN
100000 freight cars and employs
over $4,000 men. The Hartman
lines penetrate no less than sixteen
States of the Union and constitute
"the most powerful single interest
in the transcontinental field" In
1873 James j. Hill was steam
boat man, worth 800, 700. Since
then he has spanned the continent
with the Great Northern, and he
has secured a trade footing in
Japan and China which is every
year bearing more fruit. When
he reached Puget Sound it is said
we were exporting 65,000,000l
yards of cotton goods to the Orient,
while now we export over $780,
100000 yards. The Gould lines
penetrate some eighteen States.

THE DREAMER.
They followed to the summit
In the glory of the day;
For he scattered gifts around him
He was singing on the way,
For he dreamed not of Life's winter
In the red deeps Of the May.
Like the famed or tabled Grecians
They saw his bounties fall;
The feast was spread; the halt, the
blind,
Came to the banquet hall,
For lie knew not TO deny them,
And he gave his heart to all.
Then a bitter blast Of winter
Stripped the blossoms from the limb
And Fortune, false forever,
Fled like a phantom dim,
Aud no man came and called his name,
And ministered to him.
Then, from the stormy summit
"Only God IS rest | Gravel
The tempest is around me-
No arm is stretched to savep'
And God gave rest In silence blest--
The starlight on grave!
