Illinois Fisheries,

The department of commerce and
labor has issued report of the fish
cries of Illinois. 1t appears that the
independent fishermen number 3,04S,
while the wage-earing fishermen num-
Der 1869. There are IS vessels en-
gagged in it, and 4,19S boats The total
amount of products is larger than is
generally supposed. 1t amounted for
the year 1908 TO $1,413,240. OF this
amount the carp is the most profitable
reaching the sum of 1852, 40; while
the buffalo. which used TO be the most
prolific fish, only afforded a sum of
$113,6S0.
The mussel shells reached the total
of $1S4,250. while the pearls and slugs
nearly totaled the value of the shells,
reaching the sum of $170,3S0. The
black bass only amounted TO $54, 730-
not as much as the catfish, which
brought s92S10. Even the humble
dogfish sold to the amount of 1920
while frogs only brought $6,S40, and
the turtles s21,23G.
1t will be seen by this showing that
the Illinois fish product is very val
liable addition to the food supply of
the state.

Edward III. Hartman.

One of the most picturesque figures
in American railways and finance is
no more. The great achievement of
Harriman's career as a financier and
railroad manager was the rehabilita-
ton of the Union and Southern Pa
cific railroads. Other financiers had
failed signally to put these properties
on a paying basis, but Hartman, fol-
lowing the reorganization of the Union
Pacific in 1897, began a systematic
plan to place the properties in the best
possible condition for their mainte-
nance at a high standard of efficiency
To the task he had undertaken Har-
riman gave unfiagging industry. and
1T was his constant work that brought
the final breakdown in his health.
Having put the great trunk lines in
the lar west on a basis of efficiency
and profit second to none by oyercom-
ing what appeared TO be insurmounta-
BILE obstacles. physically and financial
ly, Hartman sought other worlds tn
conquer. The force of his magic
touch was felt in all the great railroad
centers. No undertaking was too big
to resist his indomitable will and
energy. One by one the monster rail-
way systems of the central west and
east and south fell into his grasp,

Trolley as Freight Carrier.

In Iowa. the interurban railroad OPP
Grating in the country adjacent to
Cedar Rapids, like those in the vicin-
ity of Toledo, Ohio. has already be-
come an important carrier of freight;
as the same class. of goods has in
northern Illinois, in the dairy coun-
try, and in Michigan. where they are
short-haul carriers of fruit and vege-
tables to the lake ports from which
the might boats" run daily to Chicago.
In Iowa the trolley line referred to is
now a carrier of grain between the
farm and the elevator at the station.
and at least one station near Cedar
Rapids the trolley company is put
ting up a cattle pen and loading
chute.
These things, combined with the re-
cent arrangement made in Illinois for
an exchange of traffic between the
steam and electric roads, are but the
3 forecasts of new order of things in
country transportation. II now costs
the grain men more for haulage from
the farm TO the country elevator than
it does all the remainder of the way
to the consumer, including the cost of
hauling in transit. This initial charge
comes out of the farmers pocket. who
may or may not see it now, or how:
but when he does realize it, as he will
when the means for saving the excess
is offered him. he will haul his grain
and nrndnoa onH drive hic nottIo tho
/ nearest shipping point, whether it be
a trolley station or steam road de
pot" Some of this grain, stock and
produce will go directly to the ter
minal markets and the packers in the
electric cars: some of it will go by
trolley to the nearest town and there
be reshipped in larger cars to the
market centers; but in any event the
haul over country roads by team will
shorten just as fast as the electric
lines reach out into the country after
these hauls.
The farmer himself will "go to town"
in the same way; so that those fowls
that have the interurbans and offer
the farmer the most attractions in the
way of goods. prices. creature COM
forts and rational, respectable and
wholesome recreations, will get his
business as a buyer and investor.
Some of our towns, therefore, must
get over the notion, and get over it
quickly, that they are sufficient unto
, themselves; that they don't need the
country as much as the country needs
them. A man will not get rich by
shifting dollar from one pocket to
another-he loses by the attrition of
! the process. Our towns get rich only
/ by exchanging their labor. or the pro-
ducts of their labor, for the products

Mr.. Cookies Chances Bright.

The belief that George A. Cooke will
be elected Judge of the supreme court
is gaining in strength daily.
Nor has there been any reason from
the beginning for lack of hopefulness
on the part of his friends.
Such thoughtful and well informed
republican newspapers as the Aledo
Times-ReeOrd and the Monmouth
Atlas realized the actual situation at
the outset and frankly admitted the
facts.
In its issue of July 80 the Times
Record Says: when William Nc
Kinley was elected to the second term
we find that the republican majority
in the district (the Fourth supreme
judicial district) was rs votes. This
probably more nearly tells the party's
true strength than by the Taft figures.
Just at this time when the tariff is be-
ing revised and following the revision
which cannot possibly please all
classes or factions. the republican par
ty finds itself unusually weak"
July 80 the Atlas mentioned the fact
that "Adlai Z. Stevenson carried the
district last fall. ard that outside of
Rock Island and Mercer counties Bry-
an lost in the district to Taft by only
one vote
Considering the above facts and the
