This recruit was being put through

er scowled at him and thundered:

possessed national asset Of no mean
value; they also recognized that the
man. his motives and purposes had
been grievously maligned and misun-
derstood, and with characteristic i'm
pulsiveness and generosity they start
ed to give him Llentnul evidence of
their change of heart The Hartman
determination League broke up. He
himself had learned in the bitterness
and isolation of that one year that
even the strongest cannot afford with
impunity to ignore or be lacking in
consideration for public opinion, to al
low himself, through aloofness, secre-
tiveness or otherwise, to become mis-
understood by and estranged from the
people. He became mellower and
communicative; his door was no
longer closed to the agencies which
inform and thereby largely mould pub
lie opinion; he no longer resented
scrutiny or even legitimate curiosity;
he went about to meetings of mer-
chants, shippers and farmers, occas-
ionally making addresses, and proving
by his appearance that he had neither
claws nor hoofs.
There were no longer any enemies
to trouble him. The opportunity was
now his, at least, to carry out his
great plans of constructive work, with
out, as heretofore, all of the time hav-
ing to interrupt himself to guard his
rear and TANKS against attacks or to
dash forward and give battle. But his
frail, i'll body which had been kept to-
gether-as 1t were-by sheer force of
will as long as the fight was raging,
collapsed when the strain and tension
was relaxed. In the early summer of
1909 he went abroad in search of
health. A few months later he re-
turned home to die.

to recover from destruction and chaos.
That Mr. Hartman was man OF
vast ambition. ever restlessly striving
forward and onward reaching one
goal only Immediately to set out for
another, goes without saying. lie
planned for a generation ahead, al
ways having himself in mind as the
man who would carry the plans to
realization, giving no room to the
thought that he might no louger be
there to do sO-again a trait of which
history records many instances in the
cases of men pre-eminent in creative
work. When | saw him in Munich, a
few weeks before his death, and we
exchanged "reminiscences anent the
last ten years, he said to me: There
is more before us in the next ten
years than we have accomplished in
the last ten" Yet. at the time, the
shadow of death was lowering over
him, he was pitably and pathetically
weak and frail, he could hardly stand
W without support-but his spirit
and courage were as dauntless, his
brain, will and faith in himself as
strong as ever, he fought the powers
of nature, he defed the physical de-
terioration which was rapidly breaking
him up with the same indomitable
pluck, the same logged refusal to get
beaten, as he had stood up against
difficulties and tribulations all his
life.
Amidst all this terrifying din, amidst
this avalanche of vituperation, misrep-
Tesentation, threatening and assault,
amidst the desertion of some friends,
the lukewarmness of others, amidst
the simultaneous strain and stress of
a financial panic during which, more
over, he did more than his full share
in the work of support and relief, Mr..
Hartman stood firm as a rock, calm,
silent and dignified. He did not COM
Lain he asked nobOdy's help, he
made no appeal for sympathy, he told
no one that he was weak and ill ana
that the continuous nervous strain
was fearful tax on his impaired
health, he stopped to no weapon not
sanctioned by the rules of gentlemanly
warfare, though plenty of them lay
ready to his hand and though his OPP
ponents were troubled by no such
scruple, he offered no compromise, no
he never for one moment took his
hand off the helm-and thus he rode
out the storm.
The Change in Popular Sentiment.
The fight lasted for a full year.
Gradually the aspect of affairs began
to change, gradually the effect of Mr..
Hartmann brave and dignifed atti-
tude began to tell. One fine morning
it became known that in the face of
universal Encouragement, single
handed, directing matters from a sick
bed, he had saved a very important
railroad from bankruptcy, by one OF
those strokes of combined boldness
and wisdom which had become famil-
lar to those who knew him best and
which, in this instance, marked the
end of the 1907 panic. From that time
on his star rose rapidly again. The
people at last began to recognize that
in his great constructive genius they

he was involved. and highly interest.
ing and dramatic it would be- The
most spectacular episode Of this kind
in his career was the contest for the
control Of the MOI thern Pacific rail
road 1t was entered into, not as has
been somewhat widely believed from
ambition, from lust of power or ag-
grandizement. but in defence of what
he considered vital interests of the
property for which he was chiefly re-
sponsible and which he held to be
gravely menaced by certain acts of
other railroad interests. For the re-
sulting unfortunate corner" in the
market no blame whatever attaches to
him, and more than one of the Incl
dents connected with the entire cpl
sode entitle him to high credit, as
will become llainly apparent when
the true and full story of the case is
published, as it will be some day.
When the smoke of the battle cleared
away, the Hartman side was found
in possession of a majority of the en-
tire capital stock of the Northern Pa
cifc, counting common and preferred
together, whilst their opponents helu
a majority of the common stock alone,
by a small margin, but not of the en-
tire capital stock. BY the provision of
its charter the company had stipulat-
ed for the right to pay off its pre-
ferred stock at ar; needless to say,
so important and essential a clause
had not escaped the attention of Mr..
Hartman and his associates, it had
not only received their most careful
attention before they decided to &C
cumuate the preferred stock, but had
been submitted by them to five differ
ent leading lawyers in different parts
of the country, who, acting and re-
porting separately agreed unanimous
ly in their answer to the question re-
garding which they were asked to adj
wise On the strength of these legal
opinions and of other circumstances,
Mr.. Hartman was convinced at the
time and ever afterwards that he held,
beyond any question OF doubt, the win
ming hand.
Instead of boldly playing it, he con-
tented himself with a drawn battle
and with the terms of peace, which
gave to the other side the appearance
of victory.
An incident worth recording as char
acteristic of the man was his action
at the time of the San Francisco
earthquake and conflagration. When
the news of that catastrophe reached
New York he not only wired direc-
tons, without a moments loss of time,
to set all other traffic and work on the
Union and Southern Pacific lines
aside, and to concentrate all of the
energy and facilities of these organl.
cations upon the task of rushing relief
and affording assistance to the strick.
en- city, irrespective of cost to the
railroads, but he hurried, himself, to
San Francisco the very next morn
ing, without giving thought to per
sonal risk and discomfort, and his
presence, counsel and cooperation
were of no little advantage to that
community in it's magnificent struggle

strong that the burden of proof that
they can be safely trusted with its
possession is nowadays rightly laid
upon those in high positions 1t is
for them to show cause why they
should be considered it persons to
enjoy the peoples confidence, not
merely for their ability, but just as
much, If not more, for their character.
Mr. Hartman was a man who might
have adopted as his motto the exhor-
tation of the most heroic figure of the
French Revolution, Dantou-"De rau-
dace, encore de raudace, ct touiours
de raudace" Daring, again daring,
and ever daring
His Attitude to the Law.
Mr. Hanmans attitude in respect
to the law of the land has been much
misinterpreted and misunderstood. To
begin with, he had profound resi- ect|
for the moral, the ethical law, and I'M
temptation would he ever have done
anything which was not justified be-
fore the tribunal of his own con
science, his own honest conception Of
right and wrong. But he chafed and
fretted srenuously when the letter of
some statute, possibly drawn without
a full realization of its practical eff
fects, stood in the way of what he con-
sidered to be absolutely proper and
beneficial objects to accomplish. He.
was irritable and impatient at stupid
laws, as he was at all stupidity. He
| to be shown to his entire convic-
ton that the law did clearly stand in
the way before he would desist from
a purpose which he deemed just and
right, but the realization of which
would not have been in accordance
with existing statutes. If there were
substantial doubt he would be tempt
ed to resolve the doubt in
favor of his purpose and go ahead;
whenever possible, he would be law
unto himself but he never con-
sciously went counter to any existing
law Except, to be entirely correct,
that he may have winked at the in
fraction of one or two provisions of
the railroad law which for many years,
with the full knowledge and sanction
OF the constituted authorities, had lain
dormant, and for lack of enforcement
had come to be looked upon as unen-
forceable and as obsolete as the old
Puritan bue aws).
Nevertheless, somehow or other,
true to his fatal gift of getting into
trouble, he managed to become the
storm center around which the agita-
: ton for reform in railroad laws ragged
most violently. He was held up to
eXecration as the arch-type of law
defying corporation managers, he was
singled out as a horrible example,
especially in connection with the Chi
CdSO u AiuOh lSauJuSIlhSHI' III WHICH,
by the way, he was only partly respon-
sible, but for which he, characteristic
cally, took upon himself the full re-
sponsibility as soon as it was attack
ed, as he realized that the attack,
though nominally directed against
that readjustment, was really direct
ed against himself personally.

This can easily be done with Partisan
Sage, sold by e. j. jenkins with an
absolute guarantee to cure dandruff,
to stop all falling hair and itching
scalp, or money back.
1t cures dandruff by killing the
germs, and it kills them so promptly
that the most skeptlcal give II praise.
But Partisan Sage is more than a
cure for dandruif-it will make hair
grow on any head where the hair bulb
is not altogether dead
And we want every reader Of The
Eagle to know that Partisan Sage is
the most delightful hair dressing in
the world. 1t is so pleasant to use,
and its effect is so invigorating that
1t causes the hair to become ustrous,
fascinating and full of life.
