Kansas City Stanf As an engineer ing feat a railroad is not more diffi cult to build than a smokestack, but smokestack builders are not usually . James J. Hills. The reason is obvious. It requires no imagination to build a '. smokestack. It requires no pioneer ing. They are not built out on a prai rie and allowed to stand there until a factory comes along and hitches on. Something like that was done by Mr. Hill when he pushed the Great (Northern out from St Paul. What use is a railroad in a country without population? What can it haul, wjiere tan it haul it and from whom? These are 'questions Hill probably heard hsked many times, and one may su pose he was too busy pushing his rails through the .empty and silent northwest to stop to answer theni. But the answer, if he made it, was that he mas building not a railroad, hut an empire. His road was merely . an agency, a means to an end. He saw hat end because had the imagination "to see it. It was easy enough to see after the territory was peopled, when great cities had sprung up and nearly one-half million farm were under cul tivation in the Great Northern's em pire. Everybody saw it then, but "Jim" Hill saw it when there was nothing there to see. That is why he was a great railroad builder. If he " had been less he would have built his road between two ' established mar kets, paralleling competing lines, and fought for scraps. ' But Hill didn't build his road and wait for business to come. He took business out into the Northern's ter ritory and planted it there. He made vevery acre in his empire work for his road. He peopled it, stocked it, plant ed it. ' ; It took imagination to, spend $30, 000 a mile to build a railroad that ap parently got farther away from any where every mile it lengthened. It took imagination to see the time when the unbroken prairie would be Waving in wheat for the road to haul 40 market. It took imagination to seee tiie road at tidewater unloading steel from Pittsburgh on ships found -for the Orient It took -imagination to . see branch lines bringing down lum ber from the northern forests to give the road a return haul east. Yet all of these things James J. Hill saw, and" Isaw them while they were yet far off. 'That is when all men of imagination see things ahead of their fellows. That is the reason they succeed. The men who didn't see what Hill saw Would have liked very much to buy his road afterwards: Such a one was Harriman. Harriman is known as a great railrod man. He ws, but he was 'not a pioneer. He was a rebuilder. He took the Union Pacific when it was bankrupt, and by spending millions, made it a profitable enterprise, yield ing large returns for himself and the men who had faith in him. He went out of the range of railroad develop ment, which Hill never did, and em 'harked in gigantic speculation. ' The Hill fortune was rooted in the ground. His work is likewise rooted and. will grow. The empire he opened ip will continue to send its wealth our to the world and the road he built 'will continue to take its toll of it. There could be no better example of the fruits of a builder's imagination. The average business man thinks his business is to sell the goods he deals in to such customers are happen to pass his door. The exceptional busi ness man the one with vision, the James J. Hill of his line helps his city to bring more people. The more who come whether attracted by the beauty of its park, the excellence of its transportation system or the cheap ness of its utilities the more custo-. mers will pass it doors. The buiness man and the city who master that reciprocal principle have mastered the secret of James J. Hill. MISFITS Skagcrak is a new name that will go down in history as (he site of one of the fiercest naval battles on rec ord. The rr's will have to hustle to keep up with the automobiles in the matter of fatal accidents. Some colossal safety-first rulea arc needed for the navigation of the roads. The glorious 4th is coming a run ning. Its celebration has gotten to be much of a commercial affair. This is . a year, though, ..for sane celebrations, in which the flag shall be honored. More and more it is being appreci ated that patriotism consists of more than noise. Now Queen Muriel can shine hall i galoriously. Good evening, Mr. Sol, glad to see you. Carranza is the fellow who broke faith. A Rep. paper says the millionaire crowd is behind Theodore. The masses are behind Woodrow.
