the pier is ready for them"
For months Daylight was buried In
work. The outlay was terrific, and
there was nothing coming In. Beyond
general rise In land values, Oakland
had not acknowledged his irruption
on the financial scene. The city was
waiting for him to show what he was
going to do. and he lost no time about
IT. The best skilled brains on the
market were hired by him for the diff.
ferent branches Of the work. Initial
mistakes he had no patience with, and
he was determined to start right, as
when he engaged Wilkinson, almost
doubling his big salary, and brought
him out from Chicago to take charge
OF the street railway organization.
Night and day the road gangs toiled
on the streets, And night and day
pile-drivers hammered the big piles
down into the mud Of San Francisco
Bay. The pier was to be three miles
long and the Berkeley hills were de-
nuded of whole groves Of mature
eucalyptus for the piling.
AT the same time that his electric
roads were building out through the
hills, the hay.tields were being sur
veyed and broken up into city squares
with here and there, according to bes,
modern methods. winding boulevards
and strips Of park. Broad streets
well graded, were made, with sewers
