That illustrates the indirection of the campaign against the merger. These two railroads, according to the Republican, bold a third of the state in iron grasp. The Republican offers no objection. For all the Re- publican seems to care they may hold a Uhird of the state in theiriron grasp forever. No remedy is proposed. What difference does it. make to the state whether two railroads hold the terrilory in, common, or whether they accomplish a more perfect union? Will their grasp be any weaker when ihe merger is dissolved? Now if you propose that they shall not control the state at all, neither singly or severally, that is something like. But your fight against the merger, however well purposed, ac- comptishes absolutely nothing. We find no fault with you for fight- ing the merger, rather we commend you for an effort to enforce the 'aws, though we deny it is unprecedented, «even among Republican administra- tors. but we do reproach you that you are content with that futile fight, content to leave the railroads in un- disputed control of the state You nob only let them hold its territory in iron grasp; you reeist the efforts of those who would break that grasp.

It will be pleasant to the neighbors and friends of Mr, Tuller and those connected with him,inGrand Kapids and elsewhere to read this estimate of business ability appearing in the | Big Fork Compass. We gaze at the wealth of such business menus Wanamaker, Morgan, Carnegie and Marshal) Field and marvelat tueir su Se Probably they are not more lucky jor shrewd than the average business ; man. Certainly they have more courage ,;and greater ambition. They have the courage of a multi- plication table in the arithmetic and the ambition to mu)tiply small sums into large. Greatness is but the multiple of small things. We wonder at the great financial success, but ignor the growing mag- nate. Here in the pine belt an em- bryo Wanamaker is duly showing us how these great business concerns are built—concerns that make their builders great. G. A. Tuller, a brother and others, six years ago started a smal] store in Deer River witha capital of about $1,000. They have since branched out, keeping step with the growth of the frontier. Mr. Tuller now owns a centralling interest in fourteen stores in as many permanent towns. Each store prob- ably carries'‘an average stock of $5,000.
