Wanted A Hill or
Harriman
The other day William Pollman, of
Baker, was in Salem on cat'le business
ahd In an interview with a Portland
newspaper he casually made the ro
niark that the greatest western coun
try, and especially the livestock pro
ducera of the west, need a Hill or
Harriman at tlie head of transporta
tion matters in order that Jhe live
stock products of the west may have
anything like an even Ibrcak with
other industries.
Mr. Pollman's statement is very apt
hd appropriate. The country does
need a Hill or a Harriman. People
swore at these men when they were
living, but they see now whaft really
big men they ,were. They were the
men who realized in order fur a rail
road to prosper and have tonnage to
haul, industries along- the lines of the
railroad must be developed. .lames
J. Hill knew .his when he shipped nut
aeveral trainloads of registered hulls
Which he sold to cuttle men at nom
inal prices in order that: the grade of
their cabilp might be inci'euud and
bettered.. Harriman knew the forest a
of the west must be nursed ntul that
the lumbermen on the coast, must have
a freight that would let them live in
order that the railroiuls could luuvc
the lumber tonnage.
Yes, give uh u Hill or a Hurriman
In .transportation. And,' taking anoth
er step, givo us an Aldrich, a Plumb,
and an Ingalls in the United States

In other words, resorting to the old
prayer, "God give m men."
