Tha controlling power has been tha same from tha Inoeptlon of the road, and flva yeara ago, four years ago ana three yeara ago, when Hill controlled tha Northern Pacific the North Coast and that road were in bitter and pro longed litigation. It waa manifestly not a Hill proposition then, and its con trel has not since changed. What then, la the object of . the road? The Chicago, Rock Island & Paoiflc la building to Lander, Wyo., and that Is not far from the Tellowatona Far.

During tha recent financial etrin gency, when money was not to ba had, hundreds of thousands of dollar of real coin were shipped out to the North Coast by express from New York. Thla money was used to buy holdings in Spokane and to pay crews in the field. Only on group of men la ' New York had money at that time to pour Into their investments, so as to take ad vantage, of tha financial ptnoh, and Rockefeller is said to have been that man. Tactic employed In the building of the North Coaat have been Rockefeller tactic right from , the start, and the road in its construction closely recera bles tha Rogers road in Virginia, de- signed and thought out by the late Henry ; H. Rogers, Mr. Rockefeller's most trusted lieutenant five years ago, These things point tovthe North Coast as a ' Rockefeller ; proposition, designed to ba. the gats through which other . road may pass,, at a Rockefeller price, to Puget sound and tha "oriental" trade bo long- tela by Hill in the northwest. nm- m-- mm - -:m ; I ? ! !
