The Hartman Way

The master Of one-seventh Of the rail-
road mileage of the country and directing
the operations Of two billion dollars Of
wealth invested in the eOuntTy's vast sys-
TEN of transportation, Edward H Harri-
man, says that I'VE have railroads enough
now" He adds that in future the best
policy Of railroads will be to develop the
rich territory through which they operate,
improve the lines and terminals, the roll
ing stock. and the general facilities for
handling freight to the highest standard
Of efficiency Any proposition which
would, by agitation or otherwise, injure
the credit OF big transportation companies
so they would not be able TO raise capital
for improvements would seriously affect
the business Of the country, declares Mr..
Hartman.
Il is this latter suggestion which IN
dOUbtediy viii arrest the attention Of
thoughtful students of American affairs
Mr.. Hartman is aware, of course, that
nobody Of sense wishes anything 10 be
done that in the least is calculated to in
juTe the railroads Of the country. Being
a man Of a high order Of intelligence. he
against which he inveighs is the feature
Of railroad financiering that the country
Is determined to curb and control The
strangest fact the most grotesque phase
Of railroad management in the United
States and the factor which distinguishes
II from railroad management in other
countries, is the fixed habit or policy Of
railroad fnanciers constantly to increase
the debts Of the properties they control.
The process of excessive capitalization
Of the railroads must be stopped some
where. It has progressed to such a point
now that even SO astute a fnaacier as Mr..
Hartman would arrest wholly the fur
Their development of the nations railroad
system in order that the lines established
can continue to add 10 their debts, which
simply means in most cases a useless in

principle there would be no more new
roads built and no considerable extern
sions of those we already have That
there is demand for more roads is too
evident to require argument. There are
still vast stretches Of the country that are
not touched by a railroad, Without rail-
roads these sections cannot be developed

Standard OILS Defense.

The board Of directors Of the Standard
Oil Company Of New Jersey has issued
ii circular to the stockholders Of that
company containing the statement, which
may appear surprising TO many people,
that the company's position is unas-
sailahle both from n legal and a moral
standpoint" II is further asserted that
At every step the utmost care has been
observed to conduct the business hon
estIy and fairly. and IN accordance with
not only the spirit but the technical re-
Guirements Of the law"
Al! this may be literally true, and yet
not a perfect defense against the many
allegations Of wrongdoing brought against
the Standard We have no doubt
that the Standard Oil Company of New
Jersey is q legally organized corporation.
We are quite ready to believe that it has
not exceeded its corporate powers as
granted by the State Of New Jersey. We
are even prepared to accept the state
ment that this particular corporation. il
it be not held responsible for the acts Of
its subsidiary companies, has done nothing
in violation of public morality, for it is
a holding company, and its chief Junction
is to own the stock Of some seventy other
corporations, and to receive and pay divi-
dends. That function. doubtless. has been
honestly performed. But do these ad-
missions meet the issue raised in the
governments suit against the Standard
The government alleges that the various
corporations and individuals constituting
what is popularity known as the Standard
Oil trust are engaged in a conspiracy for
the restraint of trade, and for the mon0p-
oily of oil production and distribution; that
they have entered into contracts with
each other for the furtherance of the
conspiracy, and that they have forced the
railroads to grant them reduced and dis
eliminating rates on their products, 70 the
damage Of their competitors. It viii be
seen that the simple assertion that the
Standard OIL Company Of New Jersey is
a legal and moral corporation has very
little bearing en- the case to be tried at

quoted as saying that whenever there was

PEOPLE OF NOTE.
Taft and the President.

Unless there has been a sudden and
wholly unexpected break in the relations
between the President and Secretary
Taft, those enterDrising journalists and
others who are specializing upon what will
happen when these two meet after the
Chief Magistrate returns 20 Washington
from Porto Rico are reckoning without
their host. President Roosevelt is on no
more cordial or intimate terms with any
member Of his official household than
with Judge Taft. In their private inter
course they call each other "Will" and
Theodore % and while they have differed
more than once as to the ACCESSIBILITY or
wisdom of certain policies of the admins
tration. 1t can be stated as a fact
| Of personal knowledge. or, at any rate,
| of first-hand assurance, they have never
permitted these differences 10 lead
TO even heated colloquy. For example.
/ Secretary Taft was at the inception of the
Presidents rate regulation programme
the only member Of the Cabinet. except
Attorney General Moody. who was in
thorough accord with the President As
that policy developed. however, the Sec
rotary parted company with the President
and tried hard 10 dissUade him from
pushing the programme on Congress with
too great vigOr. Not even this caused
the least GOODNESS in their relations II is
now so generally known that President
Roosevelt would be gratified should Sec
rotary TAFT succeed him that this inter
esting question is no longer discussed,
but merely accepted as a fact In order
ing temporary Suspension Of the EKecu-
tive order for the dlshonorable discharge
Of three companies OF the Twenty-ffth
Infantry. It IS known at the War Depart
ment that the Secretary did this only
after he had consulted with Secretary
Root IN whose judgment the President
has as great confidence as IN that Of
Judge Taft and it IS further known that
/ the Secretary intended the suspension TO
last only a few hours. or until he could
communicate fully by wireless telegraph
with the President. Persons who know
OF their relations are not In The least
