DEATH OF HARTMAN.

James ]. Hill probably expresses
the truth when he says that few men
in this country will be more difficult
to replace than E. H. Hartman. He
was, beyond all question, the greatest
railroad organizer the world has ever
known. The poor son of a poor
clergyman, Hartman began his busi-
mess career in a brokers' office in
New York as clerk He was trained
in the school of Fisk and Could, and
for good while, no doubt, followed
their footsteps, but he was bigger
man than any of that famous group
of wrecers, and at the age of IS be-
came inspired with ambitions that
were creditable to him. The achieve
ment that brought him first promi-
nently before the world was when he
secured control of the moribund
Union Pacific system. That road
went into the hands of a receiver a
few years ago, its stocks went
begging and hundreds who held it
were almost in the same condition
as the road-bankrupt Hartman took
hold of it and in a short time had it
in perfect physical condition and in
every way able to compete with 9TH
er lines. Then he secured connec-
tions for it, and within compar-
ativly short time, had changed con-
ditions so that Union Pacific was pay
ing handsome dividends and actually
earning them. He did the same thing
with the Southern Pacific and with half
dozen other lines, performing work
that showed actual genius of the very
highest order.
When the news of his probably fatal
illness at Arden became known, the
stock markets of the world were af-
fected, and it was predicted that
should he die. THE event would COM
pletely demoralize the New York
market Yet the morning after his
death, every Hartman stock on the
board went up, up, up, and the group
of stock gamblers who had counted
up his passing as an event that would
bring them harvest through the fall
in Hartman stock, lost heavily. The
last thing planned by Hartman be-
fore the final summons came was the
continuation of the great systems he
had built up, and his answer to the
stock jobbers came from the grave
There is no denying the fact that the
man. early in his career. was stock
jobber himself. but that is largely for.
gotten today in the marvellous work
he performed. The plans he formed
just before the end for preventing an,
panic following his death and the wa,
they worked out show the real calibr,
of the man.
Fergus County Democrat., 1909-09-14

up the situation when it says that
whatever suspicion Peary has sue
ceeded in raising against Cook are
equally applicable to himself.
When Cook returned, he was quite
we'll aware that certain provisions left
by him at Etah had been taken by
Peary, vt he made no mention of the
fact at all, and it would perhaps new
ct have been known had not one of
his supporters given the matter away.
He could have made considerable cap
ital out of this, but quite evidently
did not wish to be unfair. and the
explanation now put forward BY
Peary is that party sent ashore by
the commander to take on the sup
plies left by him, not knowing that
Cook had been there before him and
left supplies, simply took everything
there was, including Cooks stores.
That explanation is no doubt abso-
lutely true yet it serves to illustrate
the difference in the tempers of the
two men. It is to be regretted that
the glorious achievement should have
been clouded by this dirty controversy
at all. There isn't a shadow Of doubt
that Peary reached the pole and there
is as yet absolutely no reason for dis
crediting the staten ent of DR.. Cook
in any particular. AS the matter
stands now. both statements are en-
titled to equal credence. and the final
test as to the truth of DR.. Cooks re-
port will come when he furnishes his
detailed data and it is examined BY
scientists.

THAT STANDARD OIL FINE

The statistical genius of the Mining
World has figured it out that even if
the charitable organization known as
the Standard Oil had paid the $2o.-
100000 fine imposed by Judge K. M.
Lands it would not have proved much
of hardship to John D. So far this
year, the company has paid out in
dividends over a quarter of a million
dollars in excess of the fine, nor
would there have been any necessity
for passing dividends as in addition
to the amount distributed among John
D. and his associates since 1902, some
$o8O,OOO,OOO, the company has ac-
cumulated a reserve fund of more
than $4OOO0O,OOO.

Decision IS IN
WAITE'S favor
Judge Hunt Passes On Case Brought
By A. S. Wright Over Stock in
North Moccasin.
WAS NO PARTNERSHIP
Ruling in the Case Brought By Nellie
Moore Against Smith Brothers.
of Meagher County.

Helena, Sept. 10.-Decision in favor
OF the defendants in two civil actions.
one from Meagher county and the
other today.
In the case of Meagher. Nellie Mae
Moore. of st. Louis. Mo-. against N.
B. Smith, and others, Judge Hunt
holds that N. P. Smith and J. M.
Smith did not enter into any con-
spiracy to defraud the complainant. a
niece Of N. B. Smith. out Of her share
in her fathers estate. and orders the
bill dismissed and the defendants to
recover their costs.
She sued to recover one-third of
her fathers share in the stock of the
Smith Brothers Sheep company, al
leging that N. B. Smith, the guar
dian, had conspired to sell the stock
to J. M. Smith much below its worth,
and that the latter had been per-
united to borrow moneys from the
estate at very low rate of interest
The court holds that the property was
sold in good faith. and that the loan
was justified by the conditions exist
ing at the time it was made.
Jack Waite Wins.
In the suit of A. S. Wright against
John D. Waite. and others, to be de-
clared the owner of large block Of
North Moccasin stock, the findings Of
the master in favor Of the defendant
are sustained. the bill dismissed, and
it is ordered that the defendants re-
cover their costs.
Wright alleged that he was one of
a syndicate to acquire the property,
Orpanize the North MOccasin and
turn the property over to it, Waite
acted for the syndicate, and it was
charged he refused to deliver to
Wright stock he was entitled to.
Judge Hunt holds that Wright
failed to establish the agreement and
intention of the parties to create the
partnership alleged in the bill. and
therefore finds for the defendants.
Application was made this week at
Lewistown for the appointm ment Of a
receiver to take charge of the affairs
Of the North Moccasin, operating at

The regular monthly meeting of
the city council was held last Tuesday
evening, Mayor Phillips presiding,
with all the members in attendance.
The session was long one, but the
business was nearly all of routine
nature. One matter Of special in
terest was taken up, however, that be-
ing the question of making any
change in the plans of City Engineer
Wasmansdorff for the court house
boulevarding district. Upon motion
of Alderman J. L. Stuart, it was de-
cided by unanimous vote that the
plans as worked out by the engineer
be followed without change. An
other meeting will be held one week
from tonight.

THE COURSE OF EMPIRE.

The real wealth of the west. in cat
tie, in crops, in minerals and in land,
is now the sum and crown of the ma
tional prosperity. Until now no year
in the history of the United States
has approached or equalled the
epochal prosperity of 1909 and in the
making of new wealth. in the de-
velopment of new property, in the
realization of actual benefits. the cis-
Mississippi region has achieved near
ly three-ffths of the business"
AS the center of population, pro-
ductiveness and power moves slowly
westward. so also moves the financial
center. As the Chicago Tribune says:
The statistics which Mr.. Dawes pre-
sents in the current number of the
World Today. showing the develop
ment OF banking interests in Chicago
and its contributing territory within
radius of 500 miles. are hopeful.
They reveal a steady growth in the
wealth of this part of the country
and a corresponding increase in the
financial importance of Chicago as
the natural banking centr.
The gain in the banking power of
the middle west since 1900 was at the
rate of 1896 per cent. while the gain
in the banking power of the United
States as whole was at the rate of
o5.ll per cent. The volume of clear
1ngs OF banks in the middle west IN
1890 was nearly $o,OOO,OOO,OOO. In
1900 it was over $l40OO,OOO,OOO. In
1908 it had swelled to more than
S25.OOO,O00,000. The percentage Of
gain in the clearings of 1900 over
those or 1890 was 65.5. Comparing
1908 with 1890, the percentage Of
gain was 1912. For the earlier fig
ures there is an element of estimate.
owing to the lack Of complete data.
For those of the years since 1900 the
reports are fairly exact.
New York is likely to remain the
financial center of the country, as it
has been so long. But the evidence
is plentiful that the middle west IS
growing in wealth rapidly, much of
this being due to the tremendous
crops which are being harvested year
after year. The west is more in
dependent of the east than ever before
when its needs for moving the crops
or other purposes are considered.
How Chicago is gaining as a banking
center is indicated in the table show
ing the banking power of the states
in 1890, 1900, and 1908. In the first
var the Ohio figures were larger than
those Of Illinois. In 1900 the fonner
state was passed, although its figures
had nearly doubled, while in 1908,
while the Ohio figures had more than
doubled, those of Illinois had gone
far ahead, showing that state in un-
questiond primacy. There is no rea-
son for thinking that this primacy of
Illinois and of Chicago will ever be
threatened, so far as middle western
banking is oncerned.-Helena In
