CHINESE PHEASANTS RELEASED.
Nine Pairs of Imported Birds Turned
Loose in Jefferson County.

Oskaloosa, Kan. April THE nine
pair of Chinese pheasants which were
sent to Jefferson county last fall and
at that time delivered to Joe Ross of
Oska1oosa by County Clerk Weishaar,
were liberated by Mr.. Ross on his
farms near Oskaloosa. All were
liberated except one cock, which Mr..
Ross is keeping as mate to three
hens purchased from Jesse Pyle of
McLouth. Mr.. Ross wants to raise
several more this summer in order to
give the pheasants a good chance. It's
a $25 fine to shoot pheasants and most
sportsmen will gladly turn down op-
portunities to kill the birds in order
to get better sport later on when they
are more plentiful. These are not the
only pheasants liberated in Jefferson
county.

HARTMAN IS
STRONGER THAN
EVER BEFORE
ACCORDING TO GEO. J. GOULD HE
HAS STOOD HIS GROUNDS AND
SURVIVES THE FIGHT OF THE
GOVERNMENT AND THE PANIC
BROUGHT TO RUIN HIM.
BY Associated Press.

New York, March BE. II. Harri-
man is stronger than ever, according
to George J. Gould, in an interview
published today. II admire Mr.. Har-
riman." declared the head of the Mis-
souri, Pacific system, ''and l admire his
courage"
For four years." he continued, "the
government devoted all its energies
20 attacking him and he stood his
ground, practically alone. Every arm
Of the federal law was brought to bear
against him. All the machinery was
BET in action. Everything was thrown
Into upheaVel, the entire country was

Ance-even a panic was brought on to
crush him. Great fortunes were lost
and men were ruined.
And Mr.. Hartman survived

Is stronger than ever. If he ever
hone anything wrong he would surely
have been made to suffer for it in the
circumstances. But / don't believe he
did anything Willingly unlawful
His spirit and courage are extra
ordinary. He has come out of that
four years of attack and prosecution
victorious, without a single thing to
his discredit. He has the most won
derful spirit of any man I've ever
met. Not physically strong, he has
an indomitable will and is afraid OF
nothing. He has unusual capabili-
lies"
When asked if Mr.. Hartman would
ally himself with any of the Gould
properties, particularly the Wabash
system, Mr.. Gould said: NO, don't
believe he viii be a director of the
Wabash. But / would welcome him
On the board. / know Mr.. Hartman
very we'll. He and l are very good
friends"
In some quarters Mr.. Gould's decla-
ration of friendship for Mr.. Hartman
is taken as an indication that there is
no latent feeling of rivalry or even
hostility between the two railroad
presidents, owing to the fact that one
OF them is building the Western Pa
cific system to San Francisco as a
competitor of the Union and Southern
Pacific roads.
