EDITORIALS:
THEIR POINT OF VIEW

AT THE time that the late Edward hartman put ovei
the Alton DEAL by which he acquired properly WIN
Capitalization of ninety millions dollars which ne increased
to one hundred and eighty Millions which stock was ALL OF
in great part acquired by Mr. Hartman and associates
through device known as stock dividends issuing bonds
to provide betermens installed he Oasis editor in con-
versaon with railway criticised the transaction
and described it as which the modern world now
denominates as ''profteering
The railway manager mentioned took up the cudgels
for Mr. Hartman making this sort of an argument
'Mr Hartman has done than anyone else does
in any line business He found the Alton in certain
condition. but capable of being made to dividends on
one hundred and eighty millions of dollars and he cap
talized it at that Growth of population extension of
traffic. etc. had been contributing to that situation through
many years. Mr.. Hartman the first to realize the
fact; and he knew how to profit by it.
"Now Mr. Hartman did than any business
would do under like circumstances. General Cass,
who governor of Michigan when it territory and
exocio superintendent of Indian affairs, in which latter
capacity he secured extinction of the Indian title many
million of land in Michigan and Wisconsin, acquired
from the government tract of land the Detroit river,
and he fouded the City of Detroit cost him about
one dollar and quarter Did he sell the lots he
laid out at the acreage rate? No. those lots made him
millionaire He saw in that land great opportunity just
as Mr. Hartman like opportunity in the Alton Rail-
road.

WORLDS FAMOUS S71SS
MERGE IN SUPER-CIRCUS


Though not generally known, it i
a fact that the circus family ante
dates the best known names of the
stage. One hears a great deal about
the aristocracy OF the footlights. The
Barrymores, the Drews. the Jeffer
sons and other point with pride to
the long line Of ancestors whip trod
the borads before them. Yet. the
people Of the white top trace their
names still farther back.
In the great new Ringing Brothers
and Barnum and Bailey Shows Com
bined are gathered all the foremost
artists Of spangleland The consoli-
dalton of these famous institutions
has made this possible. Now, and
for the first time in circus history,
one finds such names as the follow
ing on single program:
The Wirths, Hannefords, Clarks,
Davenports, siegrists, Silbon, Brad
mas, Millman and many others whose
grandfathers and great grand fathers
wore the srangles Of the sawdust
realm. Here the patron finds the
entire arlstocracy Of circlsdom in
ensemble. It IS the rule rather than
an exception for the son or daughter
of performer to follow in the foot !
steps Of his parents AS soon as
they leave school the children join
their elders to be put through the
mysteries Of their first somersault
or to feel the yielding back of a
horse beneath their feet This is the
way the business" is kept up. The
teachers are the most willing in the
world, for each parent lives in the
hope that his child may become a
greater performer than himself. The
of the worlds greatest
shows" and the greatest shows on
earth" has resulted in bringing hun
lreds of performers under one big
op,' yet out of the vast number a
census would discover that the total
includes no less than forty-seven
antilles.
