he stopped in Los Angeles, San

HARTMAN DIES
Continued from page one.)

president was looking far beyond. He
had his eyes on the West first. His
opportunity came in 1889, In the
purchase of the Chicago G. Alton.
The Alton, though in bad condi-
tion physically, was a great money
maker.
Surprising the Goulds and the
Standard OIL, Hartman met the sup
posed impossible demands of Presl-
dent Blackstone by paying 2,000,-
900 In cold cash for the Chicago &
Alton, and at the same time won the
title of "the great borrower" Then
he issued bonds and won back $780,
100000 of the purchase price. Then
he went after the Union Pacific,
which had "gone to seed" owing the
government $52,000.0O0 Hartman
bought it for S5S.OO0,OOO, and went
about curing its Ills, like the marvel
Gus railroad doctor that he was.
Next came the o. r. g. N. and the
oregon Short Line, which he took
over, giving him an outlet on the Pa
ciic coast.
Then he suggested to G. p. Hunt
lngton that he would like to buy the
Central Pacific, to get an outlet from
ogden to San Francisco Hunting
ton laughed Hartman organized a
company to build a parallel line.
Huntington died before the fight was
finished, and the Hartman bluff
made good with the Huntington es-
tate. Then the wizard took over the
Western and Southern Pacific Com
panles. adding 1900 miles to his sys-
TEN.
The next stage in HIS career was
made by the attack on the Northern
Pacific, in which he opposed Hill and
Morgan, and carried on the struggle
until a compromise was reached,
which gave him representation on the
board OF directors OF the Burling-
ton.
In 1905 Hartman gained control
Of the Santa Fe, and In the same year
got a half interest in the San Pedro
line. built by Senator Clark from
Salt Lake City TO Los Angeles. Even
Fish, Harriman's benefactor was de-
posed by the wizard when he stood in
the way and Hartman put in his
man Harahan as president OF the Illi-
nois Central.
Harriman's health began to fail in
1908. In the spring OF 1909 he went
to the Southwest on health trip,
and, returning In no better shape.
soon left for Europe. There he ex-
perienced little relief. and returned
20 the United States.

has practically nothing TO do with the
real business management of the mu-
nicipality, and even the full powers
he has are seldom exercised. The
common council may deal with bust
ness matters. but anything that II
does must be passed upon by the
board Of aldermen before II can take
eject. Therefore 1t Is not hard TO un-
derstand why days. weeks and some
times months pass before the small
est matter of business can be dis
posed of.
This cumbersome. unsatisfactory
system OF government must be done
away with. The city needs an active
business administration, with some
body actually In charge of affairs at
all times. This never can be had as
long as twenty-four busy men, giving
only incidental attention to the city's
business and having their hands tied
by the two-branch council plan. are
depended upon to run the municipal
