Hartman. But outside OF his desire
to be known as the railroad builder
of this or any other age, Mr.. Harri-
man Is wise enough to know that
valuable territory must be occupied
by him soon or the field left open to
the attack of his rivals,
This is why Edward II. Hartman
Is so anxious to carry to completion
his railroad building projects in the
state OF oregon. and the people of
that state need not fear the result.
Hartman needs no urging from the
people of Oregon, for he realizes that
the time has come when he must pro-
tect the rich reserves.

Mr.. Hartman has already decided to
continue the construction of his new
Shasta route on north and north

the present. line. This will require
the construction of more than geo
miles of railroad at a cost of not le ss

tence is upon us.
Power and progress move in the
direction of hope; the greater the
hope and the opportunity of realiza-
tion by the individual the greater the
/ power and the nobler and diviner the
progress.
Nineteen centuries ago with the
birth of Jesus two great hopes were
born, or, rather. were brought into
the light and into the consciousness
of man and humanity. They were
not created d enovo by Christ; he
simply brought into the understand
ing of man fact which was as old
as man but which they had not yet
ealized and taken advantage of.
"A man of insight understood the
process when he tells us that Jesus
came bringing life and immortality
to light" He did not create that
which had always existed but he sim
ply brought It to the consciousness of
the average man. So with these 9th
er two great hopes: The divinity of
birth and the divinity of 'man. As
these are two great truths which lie
az the heart of the teaching of Christ
and as they are two OF the funda-
mental truths of Unitarism, | wish
to explain as simply as possible what
mean by them and what they mean

approaches and persistent reductions
covering several years of effort and
contrast these sets of facts, do we be-
gin to realize that as a pure speed
marvel Minor Heir has established a
new criterion which upsets all the
precedents of the past.
When we have added to this the
further facts that northampton of any
age or sex, in all the galaxy, from
Dan Patch down, has ever paced two
successive heats in 2:02 or better at
any period of their careers in or out
of a race, and that of a race of five
heats the performance at Terre Haute
establishes an average of 2:04 3-5 per
heat, whereas the best previous aver
age was 2:05, his wonderful speed is
more apparent. ~ a-
Only one man, Charley Dean, his
trainer and driver seems not to be
amazed at Minor Heirs achievement.
He is the man who, when he shipped
him away from home, predicted, and
placedst the predfotion in writing. that
he would come home with a record of
1:59A or better. Probably no exper-
fenced horseman at Terre Haute last
Friday doubts the stations ability
