some Interesting Phases

A Great Training School.

Among other services which the
Union Pacific has performed during it's
existence has been the training of a
very large number of high-grade rail-
road men. One man after another has
come up from the humblest position
on this great railroad through the
gradations of rank until he has
reached the point where the Union Pa
cific could no longer advance him be-
cause the higher offices were already
ably filled. Then this man has stepped
from a subordinate position with the
Union Pacific to the head of some
other great railroad. Scarcely a rail
road of Importance in the United
States is without a strong executive
officer who has obtained his railroad
education in the training school of the
Union Pacific.
Mr.. w. L. Park is the latest of these
experts to be graduated. He began as
a brakeman and filled each position,
step by step, until he was general su-
perintendent of the system, whence he
goes to be the responsible head of the
Illinois Central. The list might be
extended indefinitely, but the passing
of Mr.. Park serves to emphasize this
point, which is not generally recog-
nized. The Union Pacific is a, great
railroad, serving a great country,
splendidly managed and able at any
time to furnish experts in railroading
who can take hold of another system
and bring it up nearly, If not quite,
to the established Union Pacific stan.

THE sad case Of Mr. Ballinger Is an
other exemplification of the truth of the
old saying about the ingratitude Of re-

respondent of the Brooklyn Eagle "Mr.
Ballinger gave up a lucrative law practice
to come to Washington. He didn't want to
come, he says. but yielded to the per-
sistent pleadings Of Mr.. Taft Immediately
he became target for attacks all over the
country which have grown fiercer month
by month.
Now he Is spending the money he had
accumulated against the future in a
struggle against odds to save his reputa-
ton. 1t is asserted by friends Of Mr.
Balllnger that the end of the present in
vestigation win leave him bankrupt, IL
not in debt He has the highest priced
attorney in the south and the best pub
lie land lawyer in the west Both men
have assistants and they will spend at
least six months on this case. Their fees
will be high.
Mr.. Ballinger says he made terrible
mistake in first accepting office under Mr.
Roosevelt. He got a telegram from Mr.
Roosevelt one day OF nearly 1000 words
telling of the imperative need that he
should accept the position Of commissioner
Of the land office. After long hesitation
Mr.. Ballinger agreed to serve one year
He says he went into the Taft cabinet after
similar persuasion"

HOW GIANT ANCHORS
Entire Supply for the United States
Navy Made at Charleston, Mass.
ARE FORGED

The anchor shop OF the United
States navy is located in the navy
yard at Charlestown. Mass. In this
building all the anchors for use in our
navy are forged, They vary In size
from 400 to 1880 pounds.
The first step in the process of MAX
ing is the reduction Of the scrap from
the chain factory-the imperfect links
short ends. etc.-into billets OF suffl-
gent size to make the various anchor
parts. These rough masses OF iron
are held and worked on huge porter
bars, which are about ~ feet long.
The furnaces burn soft coal, or when
a greater degree OF heat Is desired
gasoline is used.
The steam hammers, of which there
are about ten, range up to 20 horse
power. The degree OF accuracy with
which the operators handle them Is
amazing. II is said that some OF these
men can bring a great cotton hammer
down on watch SO lightly that the
crystal will not be broken.
Each anchor has its standard size
and weight, for small model anchor
with correct proportions has been
constructed and from It the weights
and measurements for the various
sizes have been computed.
The work of making l7,5OO-pound
anchor takes crew of men 81 work
ing days. The crude iron costs about
$50 ton and the men receive from SO
to IS day, from which data 1t is quite
easy to understand why the cost Of
one OF these large anchors runs up
into four figures.
