HOphAS G16NNs
TIL l-ong-expected and much-taIked OF
took place yesterday. Edward II Hartman
was chosen to a seat in the board Of direo-
tors of the New York central and Hudson
River Railroad company. Mr.. Hartman
has been credited for many years with the
ambition TO have a voice ia those councils;
indeed, with even the higher ambition to
control the great system. What the end
will be, time will disclose. As yet, at least,
the Vanderbilt interests and their allies
are in control.
The Union Pacific, OF which Mr.. Harri-
man is the representative. owns $4,000. 600
Of stock OF the Central, and ne himself and
allies W much more. But their holdings
do not exceed a third Of the whole issue.
Nor do the Vanderbilts, in all their
branches, hold in excess of one-third. ]. p.
Morgan is the trustee for large foreign
holdings. As a Vanderbilt ally, together
with the proxies of the small holders who
have for years trusted the Wander bilt man
cement he has given the majority control
to the Vanderbiits. 1t would, therefore,
appear that the balance Of power is in the
hands OF j. p. Morgan. A large part of
Wall street believes this. A larger part
see in Mr.. Harriman's entrance his event
udl COnlfOl.
II il not forgotten In Wall street that
when Mr.. Hartman obtained control of
the Union Pacific it was with the Intention
OF selling 1t 10 the Vanderbilt interests, as
completing a great transcontinental chain
OF railroads, from ocean to ocean. That
sale did not take place. The conservatism
OF the YanderbiIts prevented il. Mr.. Har-
riman is nothing II not tenacious in his
purposes. He has never dropped the idea
OF such transeontinental plan. The union
of-the roads under the Vanderbilt control

Shore 4 Michigan Southern and the New
York Central with the Union Pacific would
make Il. 1t is argued that Mr.. Hartman
has never abandoned his plan. In the de-
velopment OF time a new line. competing
with the Central road, has become impos-
sible. because Of the cost OF terminals In
New York. So a union withNthe Central is
absolutely necessary TO the achievement OF
the long-cherished plan.
The election OF Mr.. Hartman 10 a seat
In the board OF the Central Is. It is ar
gued. the last step in this achievement. II

WALL STREETS LATEST DREAM.

The public has become so accus-
toned to President Roosevelt's habit
of smashing traditions that 1t has been
neither alarmed nor surprised by his
announced determination not to re-
turn to the White House with the new
president on March 4, but to go direct
from the capitol to the train which
will take him to Oyster Bay.
Wall street, however. attaches deep
significance to this breaking of prece-
dent and discovers that "a cleavage
has occurred between the retiring
president and the incoming presi-
dent" Here is the view offered by the
New York Journal OF Commerce:
Mr.. Roosevelt's attitude was attributed
to petuianee and an Unborn aversion to
playing a secondary role on any occasion,
whereas, according to responsible finan-
cial authorities, the real explanation is
10 be found in a quickly widening breach.
The tariff and Panama are mentioned as
bones of contentton-and then Mr.. Taft
dared TO gratuitously attack Mr.. Roose-
velts sacred ideas on the size OF families!
This alleged eoldness between our two
leading political figures is interpreted as
a happy augury for the next admins
tration's course. In the most influential
and best Informed banking circles there
Is growing confidence that President
Taft's inaugural address win sound a
note that will vibrate through our whole
economic fabric, giving new heart to
throw off the depression that still sits
heavy on the nations affairs.
All of which, while not very i'm
| portant ven IL true, simply. serves to
show that Wall street is still in a state
OF mind. The Street" has been so
hopeful that Mr.. Taft would do m
thing to indicate a reaction from the
Roosevelt policies that 1t a grasped
every opportunity 10 encourage itself
In a belief based entirely on hope.
Wall street would not be able to con-
tain itself II Mr.. Roosevelt and Mr..
Taft should clinch just after the in
augural ceremonies and go to the mat
for a finish fght. Stocks would soar
to unprecedented heights if Mr.. Taft
would give Mr.. Roosevelt a pair OF
blackened eyes before sending him to
the depot.
II has always been customary for
the outgoing president to ride with
the incoming president to the capitol
building for the Inauguration cere-
monies and then to return up the ave-
nue. to the White House and formally
turn over the executive residence to
his successor, Mr. Roosevelt will ac-
company Mr.. Taft to the capitol and
will be present when he is sworn in,
but will not make the return trip to
the White House. When Mr.. Taft ae-
eepts the oath of once, Mr.. Roosevelt
becomes a private citizen. He must
feel that while he may attract atten-
ton by any part he may take in the
subsequent ceremonies the interest
will be directed to the new president.
Mr.. Roosevelt has never sought TO

TAXATION.


The legislature at Lincoln has again
taken up the problem of mortgage tax
alton, but the latest proposed solution
holds out no promise of real improve
ment over present conditions. The
vicious. part of mortgage taxation in
Nebraska under existing laws is the
double taxation of mortgaged property
when the mortgage is held by resi-
dents of this state with the exemption
of mortgage holders who are outside
Of oyr taxing jurisdiction.
The present proposal is to tax mort
cages in the county in which they are
recorded, but it does not remove the
objection of double taxation. The
owner Of the mortgage in substance
buys a part interest in the m%ortgaged
property, and If the property is taxed
at it's full value and the mortgage is
taxed again at its market value, the
tax is collected twice to that extent.
II people have the privilege of invest
ing or loaning their money in Ne
braska or in other states. it goes with
out saying that they will not loan on
Nebraska mortgages unless reimbursed
either by higher rates of interest or by
a contract agreement for the borrower
to pay all the taxes.
When the present revenue law vas
in legislative incubation six years g
the editor of The Bee presented to the
joint committee appointed to draft the
bill a plan for what is called 1.-The unit
system" of assessment of mortgaged
property. This plan provided that
where property, either real or per-
sonal, were held as security for a loan,
the security and the evidence of the
debt should be assessed and taxed as
a unit and as of one and the same
value, but in no case less than the
value of the security, and that the tax
should be a lien on the property, pay
able either by mortgagor or mortga-
gee, and if paid by the mortgage
should be added to the amount of the
mortgage and made collectible the
same as the principal. This plan Of
mortgage taxation was pronounced by
the committee members absolutely
just and equitable, but was rejected
for fear it might not be popular at
home.
If the present legislature has the
courage to meet the issue it will abol-
ish the discriminating double tax on
Nebraska-owned mortgages and adopt
some form of the unit system of as
sessmept and taxation.

Senator Culberson's effort to dis
credit the administration in connee-
tion with the absorption Of the Tennes-
see Coal and Iron company by the
Steel trust has collapsed. The senate
committee on judiciary has had the
Culberson resolution, calling for the
presidents authority for permitting
the merger, for some weeks and has
about decided not to make any report
upon It, as II has found nothing war
ranting the president to interpose in
the merger.
The committee examined a number
of bankers and ~hnanciers supposed to
be familiar with the inner workings
of the transaction and secured all of
the information obtsinable concerning
the legal and financial complications
involved in the transaction. The most
severe criticism that the democratic
members of the committee have been
able to suggest after the examination
is that the president should have told
Messrs. Gary and Frick, when they
called upon him to confer about the
proposed merger, to consult their at
torneys and not to bother him.
The criticism of the president for
listening TO Jedge Gary and MIR. Prick
ia far-fetched, although it might rest
against the inanciers for taking their
troubles to the president. Their at
torneys could have told them, and
probably did, whether the proposed
merger proceedings were within the
law. Their request for a conference
with the president vas an imperti-
nence, excused only because it was a
time of financial stress when failure
of the Tennessee company, certain un-
less the merger was accomplished,
threatened a real panic. Perhaps the
president should not have considered
the question at all or, having con-
sidered it, he should not have COM
mitted himself, but the developments
show that he was warranted in in
forming Judge Gary, and Mr.. Prick
that he could find no legal objection
to the proposed merger, and that
seems to be the extent of the presi-
dents offepse.
So far as the senate's investigation
is concerned, the situation is some
what complicated by the testimony of
MIR. Perkins, Mr.. Stillwell, Mr.. Frick
and others to the effect that the Steel
trust was not anxious to control the
Tennessee corporation, does not care
much about IL now and would be glad
to have the company r~eorganized on
a separate basis and released from the
merger. The testimony all tends to
show that the merger was due to a
complication of conditions affecting
many banks and a long list of indus
trial enterprises throughout the codn-
try that would have suffered greatly
IL the Tennessee company had gone to
the wall. This Iabored effort to make
the merger an act of lofty patriotism
and public spirit may be accepted for
what it is worth, but 1t has been made
very clear that the president could not
have prevented the merger had he at
tempted to do so. The senate has been
exceedingly unlucky in its efforts to
make any of its charges against he
president stick long enough to get
ever a favorable report from a COM
mittee room.
