The Ellensburg dawn. [volume] (Ellensburg, Wash.) 1898-1914, 1907-04-12

IT is very easy for a man that
OWNS not a foot of land to urge the
matter of street paving in the bust
ness part of town, but we fail to
find many who own property on
the business streets who want to
dig up the necessary cash to make
the street in front of their place of
business look citifed. The burden
of taxation is already steep enough
and to add too big a load, might
break the back of even the best of
them. While we would all like to
see fine streets; we would surely
enjoy them, it is very questiona
bic in our minds if the property
owners would stand for it because
of the excessive tax it would add
which in the end would be taxed
up and paid for by tenants, who
think they are now paying all the
rent they can stand. If it takes
all man in business can make to
pay expenses, he had better quit at
once and let some one else who has
long sack step in and bear the
expense. Our advice would be to
90 slow in the matter-do a little
at a time and do it when we can.
The question should be submitted
and passed on by only those di-
rectly interested financially, and
who must pay the bill, regardless
of what others may say.

JAY oouLp's NERvY BLUFF.
Brought Express Company to Terms
by Buying a Few Safes.

Recalling early days IN the eX'
press business an officer OF one OF
the largest companies recently told
this story of Jay Gould:
Gould and Fiske then had hold OF
the Erie" he said, "and the United
States Express company had all the
express business of the road. The
contract was about to expire and
Gould wanted an arrangement more
profitable to the Erie.
1.-The Eries doing all the work and
you're making all the money, Gould
said 70 the express people. You ought
10 do some of the work and give the
railroad a chance at the money
"The express company officials de-
INJURED. Their profit. they insisted,
was no more than they were entitled
to. and they refused to shade the con-
tract a penny Gould insisted on a
decrease, but they remained obdurate
and eventually let the Erie president
understand--what he very well knew
that no other company would COM
pete against the United States for the
Erie business. All the companies were
in an agreement to maintain rates.
"sAll right said Gould at the con-
clusion of the interview, you've no OBJ
lection, l guess, to my going into
the express business for myself.
II looks better than railroading.
"The express people replied that
Gould could organize all the compa-
mics he wanted to. They thought 1t
was all bluff, but things that came TO
their attention soon weakened their
faith in this idea Gould was going
around among his associates talking
up the express company scheme, Of
ficials of other roads were told that
a new company would be in the field
to bid for their business, and the
papers began to talk about the new
Gould express company.
.'The express officials, however, saw
none of Gould's money going into the
enterprise and stood pat. Presently
It was reported that he had bought "a
big express safes. Was this talk or
was it business, the express men ask
ed themselves. They set to work
investigating and they discovered
that the report was true-Gould had
actually bought and paid for the safes
safes cost money in those days
and he was negotiating for all the
other equipment required.
Now. thoroughly convinced OF
Could's sincerity, the express COM
many came to terms. Gould got the
hest contract from a railroad stand
point that had been known up to that
time. The clause in the contract that
the United States Express company
considered most valuable to itself was
one STIMULATING the abandonment Of
Gould's express plans.
1T was all bluff on Gould's part.
except buying the safes. For that
| matter the purchase was, of course,
mart of the bluff, but Gould had act
ually bought and paid for them uncon.
ditionally. Nevertheless he lost moth.
| ing on the deal, for as soon as
friendly relations were established
| with the express officials he persuad
ed them they could use the safes in
their business and sold them to them
at little. better than cost."-Wash-
| ington Post.
