Ruthless as a Crocodile
In 1863, a little over a year since the Railroad Act was signed, Judah had a confrontation with the Big Four - specifically Huntington. Judah expressed strong objections to their way of doing business.
Talal-Tulsa-Ms.Papietro: . . . . Fri, Mar 8, 1:27PM PST (-0800 GMT)
12.With Huntington on top of leveraging financing from Washington, Judah removed as a protestor, it was Crocker working in California who managed to actually get the railroad built. One of Crocker's greatest challenges was finding enough laborers to get the job done and done fast. In the mid 1860s, gold was still a greater lure than working on a railroad as a low paid laborer. On the eastern slopes of the Sierras, the Comstock Mines near Virginia City were to yield 4300 million in wealth 1860-1889, and California's gold mines yielded 4170 million.
Who could Crocker find to build the railroad? Immigrants were his best answer. There had been a large influx of Chinese immigrants since the beginning of the gold rush. They were glad to escape the poverty of their homeland for a chance in the gold country of California. But they arrived to find their hopes of wealth dashed by the racial discrimination, such as the Foreign Miners tax law. This left the Chinese no way home, so they were forced to settle into any low paying jobs they could find in the cities and mining camps … they were eager workers, and excellent candidates for the railroad project.

13.The January 4, 1855, issue of the Oriental contained an editorial entitled "Laborers for the Pacific Railroad," in which it was confidently predicted that the time will come when "the boundless plateaus of the Western half of this continent, now desolate and almost unpopulated by any but the savage and scarce [sic] improvable destroyers of the buffalo, will be scattered with busy lines of Chinese builders of iron roads, that shall link the two oceans, and add to the wealth and comforts of the dwellers upon either shore."

14.Two years after the beginning of construction, the line had completed less than 50 miles of running track. Central Pacific's construction superintendent, J. H. Strobridge, needed 5,000 laborers "for constant and permanent work." But the largest force that he was able to muster at any time during the spring of 1865 was 800.
E. B. Crocker, brother of Charles Crocker, was one of the first to suggest that the way to solve the railroad's manpower problem was to use Chinese for the construction work.[3] At this time it was a period of recession in the mines. Chinese ex-miners were seeking employment in other endeavors in towns and the countryside at low wages.[4] However, when Central Pacific General Superintendent Charles Crocker suggested several times that Chinese be hired, his Irish construction superintendent, J. H. Strobridge, resisted strenuously: "I will not boss Chinese. I will not be responsible for work done on the road by Chinese labor." He just did not think Chinese were fit laborers for building a railroad.[5]

16."A light car, drawn by a single horse, gallops up to the front with its load of rails. Two men seize the end of a rail and start forward, the rest of the gang taking hold by twos, until it is clear of the car. They come forward at a run. At the word of command the rail is dropped in its place, right side up with care, while the same process goes on at the other side of the car. Less than thirty seconds to a rail for each gang, and so four rails go down to the minute ... close behind the first gang come the gaugers, spikers, and bolters, and a lively time they make of it. It is a grand 'anvil chorus' ... It is played in triple time, 3 strokes to the spike. There are 10 spikes to a rail, 400 rails to a mile, 1,800 miles to San Francisco — 21,000,000 times those sledges to be swung: 21,000,000 times are they to come down with their sharp punctuation before the great work of modern America is complete."

Dig question #1 –Theodore Judah was the engineer who had surveyed and promoted this first small railroad, and it was his engineering vision that motivated the building of a railroad that could cross the formidable peaks of the sierra Nevada mountain range. The goal of such a railroad was to end the isolation California had known during the years it relied on lengthy sea voyages as its only connection to the eastern seaboard states.
Karina Moran@Nightingale: . . . . Wed, Mar 13, 11:19AM PST (-0800 GMT)
Dig question #2 –First sought support in Washington DC for what he called the "most magnificent project ever conceived". But the impending civil War had Congress too distracted with slavery issues to take his ideas seriously. So, Judah returned to California, surveyed the best path for the railroad, and began seeking wealthy sponsors to fund the project. San Francisco had more millionaires than New York. But these millionaires, such as William Ralston, ran profitable steamship lines and saw the overland railroad as a threat to their source of wealth they turned Judah down.
Karina Moran@Nightingale: . . . . Wed, Mar 13, 11:27AM PST (-0800 GMT)
Dig question #3 – The four Sacramento businessmen would soon become four of the wealthiest millionaires in the State of California, but first, they had to set in motion a political machine that would ensure their success. They pushed to have Leland Stanford, the attorney, become the next governor of California, while at the same time making him the president of their enterprise, called the Central Pacific Railroad. Judah went east and handed out stock to influential Congressmen to gain support.
Karina Moran@Nightingale: . . . . Wed, Mar 13, 11:29AM PST (-0800 GMT)
Dig question #4 – In Sacramento, Judah interested four merchants - not yet millionaires - in his projects: Charles Crocker (who had been selling clothing and carpets since arriving in California in 1850), Collis Huntington and Mark Hopkins (original 49ers who were partners in a profitable hardware business that sold mining supplies), and Leland Stanford (a lawyer who had opened a grocery and feed store after his arrival in 1852).

14. Chinese railroad workers were divided into gangs of about 12 to 20 each. Each group had a cook who not only prepared their meals but was required to have a large boiler of hot water each night so that when the workers came off the grade, they could take a hot sponge bath, and change their clothes before the evening meal they would be payed about 26$ a month wich was later changed to around 36$ a month.

Later this was raised to thirty dollars and finally to thirty-five dollars per month, out of which, after deducting their expenses, left $20 to $30 per man

12.With Huntington on top of leveraging financing from Washington, Judah removed as a protestor, it was Crocker working in California who managed to actually get the railroad built. One of Crocker's greatest challenges was finding enough laborers to get the job done and done fast. In the mid 1860s, gold was still a greater lure than working on a railroad as a low paid laborer. On the eastern slopes of the Sierras, the Comstock Mines near Virginia City were to yield 4300 million in wealth 1860-1889, and California's gold mines yielded 4170 million. Who could Crocker find to build the railroad? Immigrants were his best answer. There had been a large influx of Chinese immigrants since the beginning of the gold rush. They were glad to escape the poverty of their homeland for a chance in the gold country of California. But they arrived to find their hopes of wealth dashed by the racial discrimination, such as the Foreign Miners tax law. This left the Chinese no way home, so they were forced to settle into any low paying jobs they could find in the cities and mining camps … they were eager workers, and excellent candidates for the railroad project.

13.The January 4, 1855, issue of the Oriental contained an editorial entitled "Laborers for the Pacific Railroad," in which it was confidently predicted that the time will come when "the boundless plateaus of the Western half of this continent, now desolate and almost unpopulated by any but the savage and scarce [sic] improvable destroyers of the buffalo, will be scattered with busy lines of Chinese builders of iron roads, that shall link the two oceans, and add to the wealth and comforts of the dwellers upon either shore."

14.Two years after the beginning of construction, the line had completed less than 50 miles of running track. Central Pacific's construction superintendent, J. H. Strobridge, needed 5,000 laborers "for constant and permanent work." But the largest force that he was able to muster at any time during the spring of 1865 was 800. E. B. Crocker, brother of Charles Crocker, was one of the first to suggest that the way to solve the railroad's manpower problem was to use Chinese for the construction work.[3] At this time it was a period of recession in the mines. Chinese ex-miners were seeking employment in other endeavors in towns and the countryside at low wages.[4] However, when Central Pacific General Superintendent Charles Crocker suggested several times that Chinese be hired, his Irish construction superintendent, J. H. Strobridge, resisted strenuously: "I will not boss Chinese. I will not be responsible for work done on the road by Chinese labor." He just did not think Chinese were fit laborers for building a railroad.[5]

16."A light car, drawn by a single horse, gallops up to the front with its load of rails. Two men seize the end of a rail and start forward, the rest of the gang taking hold by twos, until it is clear of the car. They come forward at a run. At the word of command the rail is dropped in its place, right side up with care, while the same process goes on at the other side of the car. Less than thirty seconds to a rail for each gang, and so four rails go down to the minute ... close behind the first gang come the gaugers, spikers, and bolters, and a lively time they make of it. It is a grand 'anvil chorus' ... It is played in triple time, 3 strokes to the spike. There are 10 spikes to a rail, 400 rails to a mile, 1,800 miles to San Francisco — 21,000,000 times those sledges to be swung: 21,000,000 times are they to come down with their sharp punctuation before the great work of modern America is complete."

The names of the four men who became the Central pacific Railroad backers were Charles Crocker, who had been selling clothing and carpet since arriving in California since 1850, Collis Hunter and Mark Hopkins, who were original 49ers who were partners in a profitable hardware business that sold mining supplies, and Leland Stanford, who was a lawyer who had opened a grocery and feed store after his arrival in 1852. 4. These four business men were not millionaires when the project began. They were millionaires after the project was completed. 5. Leland Stanford was elected to become California's governor. 6. The Pacific Railroad Act was passed to fund the railroad's construction on July 1,1862. 7. President Lincoln signed the legislation. 8. The Big Four was paid the most if they layed the tracks through the mountains. 9. The survey brought the Big Four about a half of a million dollars extra. 10.
