He saw at once on entering Yale that
the business of winning prizes could be
greatly systematized to the great benefit
II all. If one man were to win all the
prizes the economic results would be most
praiseworthy. Vicious and w~asteful COM
petition could thus be regulated-perhaps
even eliminated to a healthy extent. Dis
appointments and heart burnings could be
avoided. A healthful and beneficial com
blnation would be effected and several
hundred students who had hitherto wasted
health, kerosene and eyes upon their books
would be free to carry Yale to greater
glory upon the athletic field. 3
Young Taft lost no time in carrying out
his IDEAS. In four years he had effected

In temperament Taft is a steam
heater and Roosevelt is a prairie
fire; in conversation, a college pro-
lessor beside a d.. D. r. convention
in energy, a locomotive beside a volcano;
in good nature May compared with April.
Both make enemies in plenty, but Taft re-
fuses to walk on a man while he is down,
while Roosevelt refuses to get off OF him
until he is sure ne can't get up. Both are
as fond OF work as a kitten is of milk.
Both go on the theory that a large family,
well brought up. is better 10 leave a ma
ton than great riches. Both are as afraid
of criticism as a Bengal tiger is OF a Grip
Piled sheep.
AS for results. both seem to acquire prac-
tically the same brand, Both OF them
raise hades, but with entirely different
seed. Roosevelt talks dynamite, sulphur,
perdition, birthstone, shotguns and bowie
knives. while Taft talks axle grease. ball
bearings and lubrlcating oil. Taft calls a
spade an ~excavator. while Roosevelt calls
II an absolute, uncontrovertible, deliberate
and atrocious spade. Summing II all up,
they are both the same kind OF motor, but
Roosevelt runs with his muffler cut out.
Disclosures may be MADE IN the me OF
almost every great man. Taft Is no eX-
ception. He is rated as an enemy Of trusts
and combines and as a DISCOURAGE OF the
predatory magnste as well as the CONNER
cial hog who believes in living and let
ting others live providing they pay him
roundly for the privilege. ret il is on
record that before Taft was IS years of
age he was conducting a trust Of his own.

Tslegram-Edwin Haney of Omaha very
suddenly died here this morning. The
body will be sent over the Northwestern
read to Omaha tonight. The knight
Templars here have taken charge of the
body.
Mr.. Haney was one of the best known
men In Omaha. as his position as station
master at the Union station for years made
him n most familiar figure. He was born
in Dane county, wis, July 81, 1s47 and
moved with his parents 10 Kansas when
eleven years of age, the trip being made
by the Mississippi and up the Missouri
by boat. His parents died when he was l.,
and then he worked his way back to Madi-
son, Wis. He lived in the same block in
Madison with John NJ. Thurston, later
general solicitor of the Union Pacific, AMI
senator from Nebraska. 1
In 1865 Mr.. Haney went to Missouri and~
entered the employ Of the Hannibal &
St. Joseph railroad. In January. 1869, he
was sent TO Omaha by that road to take
charge of the through checking system
and his place of business was an iron
portable shed on the corner of Ninth and
Farnam streets. In 1871 Mr.. Haney took
the position of baggage master for the
Union Pacific, a post he filled for a great
many years.
Three years after he settled in Omaha
married Miss Inez Porter, daughter OF
Judge John Porter. They have one son,
Dr.. w. p. Haney of Cananea, Sonora,
Mexico.
Mr.. Haney built a home on the corner
of Eighteenth and Farnar streets, where
he and his family resided for twenty
eight years, He sold the lot to a syndicate
about three years ago. Until three years
ago, when sickness compelled him to re-
sign, Mr.. Haney occupied the position of
station master OF the Union station. and
here he met scores of noted people. who
passed through and stopped at Omaha. He
could tell many interesting anecdotes of the
great men he had met. He never sought
any political office, although he was some
