TO WELD WHIP HAND
IN NEW YORK CENTRAL ?

On Friday Vice President and General
Manager ". II. Bancroft OF the oregon
Short Line and Vice President and Cen
eral Manager E. E. Calvin Of the South
ern Pacific will arrive in San Francisco
from their pleasure trip to Honolulu
When they left for Honolulu it was given
out that they were to be on the lsiaho
about a month. When 1t was learned
that they would return sooner there was
some speculation as to whether something
urgent might be calling them back. FROM
the San Francisco end of the southern
Pacific road word came yesterday that the
two officials had been requested 10 return
at once by 4. II. Hartman himself, and
that very soon after they arrive in San
Francisco they will journey on TO New
York 10 meet the magnate.
This news has given rise to many ru-
mors in Southern Pacific circles about
railroad changes that Mr.. Hartman IS
contemplating in the management of MS
big railway system. and these rumors,
which started in San Francisco, have
Travelled UP along the line and now fur-
nish the chief topics being discussed in
the railroad Offices.
Mr. Hartman just recently entered the
directorate of the New York Central. and
il is believed By many railroad men that
his message to Messrs. Bancroft and Cal
win in Honolulu means that he is DESTROYS
of switching a number of his most able
managers to meet his new conditions.
1t is stated, how authoritatively IS not
known. that AIr Calvin is slated as the
new president of the Illinois road to sue

A Stone Age Hog

''When man has enough to live on with a rea-
sonable amount of comfort he ought to retire at
age when he still has some manly vigor left with
which to enjoy life" Thus saith Geo. L. Phillips,
an Ohio judge who says he will quit the bench and
the law.
: Let any number of men get together in the name
of reform, and pass resolution to the effect that
when a man has acquired enough he shall quit, and
they would be denounced as socialists, worse.
Yet isn't this the true philosophy of life and of
cial economist
BY hook, crook or honorable effort man piles up
a million dollars. He can enjoy every comfort on
earth, and pure luxures always or less de-
basing. But, in 999 cases out of 1000, your mil
iOnaire doesn't stop at million. The mOney-lust
stronger and really viler than all other usts has
gripped him. He grows old, feeble, vigorless pilng
up money that means worry, envy and hatred OF him
while he's living and war among his children when
he's dead He has invested mind, heart and body
in enslaving himself, and there is vigor in him
with which to enjoy life.
Look at Judge Phillips plan from social and
economic standpoint and it appears to be the solu-
ton of most all of civilizations problems.
When man has enough to enable him to reason
ably enjoy life to its end let him quit. Quit what?
Why it's simply quitting the taking for himself
what others need and what he doesn't need for him
self.
Suppose that, in mans very early days, big,
strong fellow, stronger physically mentally than
the hundred other fellows of his tribe (Society),
killed fat elephant and undertook to KEEP it to him
self, while his fellows went hungry. What would
Society of that time do? It would surely eat that
elephant, and maybe the would-be monopoist, too
They d look on the latter robber, hog and al
together bad thing for Society. If they had in
come tax laws to make him divide, they d make him
do it by force of numbers They would be social
istic to not permit him to let rot what meant life
to the community and what he had secured by luck
special advantage special personal ability. May
be these barbarians wouldn't think exactly along
this line, for they would be thinking with their
stomachs. But aren't there a whole lot of millions
of people of our own civilized times who are think
ing with their stomachs.

"Well, / be ding-danged and

Goodpastures.
Again the inventor laughed
through his crystal mask and an
other long, spidery arm reached
up to the second-story window,

gently and deposited her on a
cushioned seat beside the inven-
tor. The machine quivered and
arose.

the inventors face. Then another

and grasped Farmer Goodpas-

traption flew, up above the wood.

pines. until Farmer Goodpastures
prayed to every deity in Is sys-
tens of mythology and wished
that he might die. Then the queer
machine rested upon a projecting
rock at the very summit of Bald
Eagle Knob overhanging the Chat
tiwassee river. There the spidery
arm deposited Farmer Goodpas-
lures and the strange contraption
backed away.

bling old man. How long are

THE WONDERFUL CUSHION

1t was just the latest, softest
and prettiest red velvet cushion
you ever saw, with great gold tas-
sells at each corner. 1t was so
beautiful it was kept in the living
room at Benjamin's home.
This day BENJAMIN was playing
king, and he coaxed his NAM
ma to let him have 1t in the nur-
sery for his throne. Little boys
soon grow tired, and after a while
Benjamin lay down on the cush-
ion and went sound asleep.
He had hardly closed his eyes
when somehow or other in some
mysterious way, he saw four white
doves fly in the window. Each
one took a tassel of the cushion
in its bill and lifting Benjie right
along with the cushion they flew
out of the window and up and up
to the sky.
At first Benjie was terribly
frightened, and held fast to the
cushion, but when he saw that
they were nearing snow-white
castle he became so interested he
forgot to be afraid.
Straight in the castle door the
doves flew and carefully laid the
cushion and boy before the throne
of the king. Benjamin was sur
prised to see that on the kings
throne was cushion just like his

boy, your throne was a wonder
cushion, blessed by my fairies,
and whosoever puts his head on it
to sleep shall have pleasant
dreams. Today the fairies have
brought you to visit me, and you
shall see how a fairy king lives.
After showing Benjie the
great palace he took him to see
the beautiful horses and hounds
that he used when he went
hunting. He even allowed the
little boy to be placed on one
of the horses for a ride, and he
blew the hunting horn just as
loud as he could. AS they
