Governor Cox knew that John M
Forbes was the true creator of the
Michigan Central railway system. for
he furnished the two million dollars
with which the incomplete Michigan
Central was bought from the state of
Michigan in 1874. He also raised the
money in Boston and in Europe
needed to complete the road to Chi
cago, and, Furthermore, 1t was his
capital which made the creation of
the Burlington system possible.
Governor Cox once told his brother,
Charles Finney Cox, who was for
many years identified with the iinan-
cial management of the New York
Central system, that, great as Mr..
Forbes's achievement was in finding
the millions necessary for perfectlng
the Michigan Central system and for
building up the Burlington system,
nevertheless his greatest achievement
was the solution of some of the very
difficult original problems which the
development of railways in the West
brought about.
My brother, Governor Cox, once
told me-" said Charles Cox to me,
that upon one occasion he had a
very interesting conversation with
John M, Forbes, in which Mr.. FORBES
stated to him the reasons why he had
undertaken the construction of the
original great railway systems in the
West.
MY brother said that Mr.. Forbes
told him that upon one of his early
visits to the West, and particularly
to Illinois, he had made a study OF
the soil of Indiana and Illinois and
o little later of Iowa and Missouri.
He was satisfied that for fertility 1t
fully matched the rich scoil of the
valley of the Nile. Furthermore, it
was virgin soil. 1t could be made
to produce enormous crops.
''But it struck him also that this
very fertility of the soil represented
by millions of acres of very rich loan
was an insuperable obstacle in get
ting crops from the harvest fields to

Somebody has stole the Goldfish
which stood out in front of Tibbitts's
grucery store so many years, and
Constable Ezra Hand is hard at work
on the case. Tibbitts is wearing
mourning on his sleeve, as that cod
fish was with him so long he had got
to be rather fond of it. Last time he
sold piece of it to Rev. Hudnutt he
engaged Hank Timms and Uncle
Ezra Harkins to saw it off with a
crosscut saw. A hungry burglar came
along one night and tried to pry off q.
bite of it with his burglar tools and
nitroglycerin, but failed ignomini-
ously.

a comparatively few farms whose
crops We're grown near navigable
rivers. Therefore this soil itself was
both a blessing and an impeachment
to the farmers. They could raise very
large crops. but it cost more than
they were worth to haul them to the
market.
"Mr. Forbes told my brother that
it was this position which was the
chief reason for the confidence which
he had in placing large amounts of
money in the construction of rail-
ways across these rich prairie lands.
He said. furthermore that his con-
fidence had been absolutely justified
by the events. The railroads not only
opened up these enormously produce
tive lands, but they furnished an
easy means by which the farmers
could get their crops to the market.
"Oh, by the way" continued Mr.
Cox, my brother also told me that
Mr. Forbes said to him in the course
of the conversation just described
that the discovery of gold in Cali

for the investing of enormous capt.

prairie States and the discovery of
gold in California explained the

MENTION FARGO
IN WORLDS WORK
OCTOBER NUMBER OF WORLDS
WORK CONTAINS MENTION OF
WHICH NEVER EXISTED -
MAKES CONTRAST,
IGL-.,

Mention is made of the city of Far
go in an article on municipal gov
eminent in the October number Of The
Worlds Work, edited until recently
by Mr.. Page, the. new ambassador to
Great Britain.
The reference to Fargo is made in
contrast with the city of Atchison,
Kans., where 1t seems a big deficit
has been uncovered recently in the
management of the city's affairs.
Fargo, with the widely-famed "divi-
dend' scheme of the last administra-
ton, is presented as a contrast to
Atchison in showing how a city Of
this size may be managed.
The story of the "~dividend' went
far and wide over the country. 1t was
exploited both by newspapers and
magazines. It was first given ventilla-
ton by the Munsey publications dur
ing the recent presidential campaign
when former Mayor Sweet was the
gu~bernational candidate Of the bull
mooser. The story was never denied
and has gained a wide circulation.
Business men Of the city agree that
to. let the city rest under such an err
roneous impression does Fargo no
particular good even from an adyer-
Using standpoint, inasmuch as it is
not the truth. 1t is understood on
reliable source, that effort will be
made to correct this Glory and the
made to correct this story and the
ent editor of The Worlds Work.

DAVID BARTLETT
A STATE BUILDER
DEATH OF cooPERsToWN MAN
REMOVES ONE OF THE MEM
sERs OF CONSTITUTIONAL
CONVENTION AND ONE OF: BEST
KNOWN MEN OF PIONEER DAYS.

The recent death of David Bartlett.
OF Cooperstown, and the slight notice
that has been given it. is a striking
illustration Of now quickly the men
who builded this commonwealth drop
out of the ranks and that their pass
ing Is almost unnoticed.
1t is not our purpose to pay an ex-
tended tribute to David Bartlett be-
cause we did not know him as init
mately as many did, but we knew him
Well enough to know of those quail
ties OF heart and mind which made
him one Of the strong men Of this
young state. If We mistake not, he
was a son Of New England, and had
the dignity and reserve which is a
common trait of the Puritan, yet his
heart was warm and his impulse gen
erous. He played no small part in
the first twenty years of statehood.
AS a member Of the constitutional
convention, he had his part in the
framing of u fundamental law;
served upon the first Board OF Rail-
road Commissioners, and for the six
years 1907, he was lieutenant gov
ernor, and, it may be said without
reflection upon any other presiding
officer of the senate, that we v
mad a man who presided with more
oA' IoSS VI a llSSS lIdu u1u IOV-
ernor Bartlett. He had, the respect
and esteem of every man who came in
contact with him in the discharge of
the duties Of this high office. Since
1907, he had not been especially ac-
tive in political affairs, though last
year he became interested in the pro-
gressive party movement and was n
OF the moving spirits in the organiza-
ton in this state.
His interest in education in his
nome community and In the state, was
one Of his striking characteristics. He
served for many years on the Board
of Trustees of the state university,
and during almost the entire time of
his service was president of the board.
He had much to do with upbuilding Of
the school system Of Cooperstown,
where, for many years, he was the
president of the board of education.
We know he gave freely of time and
effort to serve the cause of education
In his community and state.
A lawyer by profession, he did not
limit his activity to his profession.
He had large business interests as
we'll. His death now, just in the
prime of life, is, indeed, untimely and
those who knew him will sincerely
regret that they still see him no
more. W. L. Stockwell.
