NEW YORK, May 16.-Every day
should be a turning point in the
lives and achievements of the men
who are guiding the affairs of the
big industrial concerns of the coun-
try; every day a contribution to the
continuous progressive development
of the men who are to fill the posi-
tons at the top.
When | was working as a call boy
for the Burlington railway. I noticed
that the young men who possessed a
knwledge of stenography and type.
writing made more advancement
than those who were not specially
qualified to do one particular thing
and do it we'll
Accordingly, l took up the study
of stenography, and soon found it
of good use to me. [ was appoint d
secretary to the superintendent Of
the road. and in a short time pro
NOTED TO the position Of chief clerk
/ then served the Great Northern
system for ten years in various ca
paCities, the Rock Island system for
two years and returned to the Bur
lington as general superintendent Of
the Nebraska division. My next pro
motion was to the vice presidency of
the Burlington, and in October, 1911,
| was elected president Of the St.
Paul system.
To some degree every man IAN do
much better than he is doing at pres-
ent. but he must be pre- -eminen; IN
some line to lift himself above his
associates. There is no roy II road,
or short cut, to progress, so far DIS
know.
The invariabie rule of advancement
is thorough qualification by ability
and experience, for the position that
lies directly ahead. Few young rl2n
realize the long. weary road Of pa
tient plodding between the small job
at the bottom and the exalted T. ISL
ton at the top of the ladder Of sac
! cess.

PLENTY OF CANDIDATES.

While it is early, yet their appear
to be several candidates bobbing up
for congress, in the Fourth Congress
sional District.
Hon. Merle D. Vincent, has not de-
clared himself as to whether he will
again be candidate.
M A. Nicholson, wealthy banker and
mining man of Leadville, is being
groomed by Lake county Republicans.
He is a brother of the late Senator
Nicholson.
w. S. Whinnery of Lake City. well
known live stock man, is being talked
of by Hinsdale and Lake City leaders.
The Pagosa Journal, (Archuleta
county,, has candidate in the per-
son of Fred Catchpole. The Journal
has some very strong reasons why Mr..
Catchpole should be the candidate this
year. He is banker, stock man and
farmer of the San Juan basin.
Lieutenant Governor, in our opinion,
is the man whom the voters will elect
to congress from this district, If he
will consent to run. Mr.. Rockwell
however, is the most talked of candi-
date for governor this year. Which
ever place he wants The Independent
will most happily lend its support to
him. Mr.. Rockwell started out as
representative of Delta county; then
state senator (Delta and Gunnison
countless; thence to the office of
Lieutenant Governor. Rockwell does
one thing well-He Gets the Votes!

WORK ISSUES STATEMENT.

Upon his return to Washington this
week, DR.. Hubert Work, of Pueblo,
secretary of the interior, issued pub
lie statement upon the political situa-
ton in Colorado.
Mr.. Work says Senator Lawrence C..
Phipps will be the candidate to sue
ceed himself; and Oliver H. Shoup the
candidate for the unexpired term of
the late Senator Nicholson.
That apparently R. F. Rockwell will
be the candidate for governor.
Reports from Denver do not exactly
coincide with this statement. Some
contend that Mr.. Shoup will be the
candidate for governor. And there will
others who will seek the senatorships.
