 Dr. Cseen is . eEeat man, esen when judged by the ssde of men universally recognized as far above their associases and fellows. That this great country is too vast for the domination of any ooe company is . truism which needs DO argument, and that other suterpsises can, will and do iind hvor with the popalar mind is evinced by tho success atisnding the opposition companies. the Baltimore and Ohio and the new National, which have nov entered into direct and ssnsi- has composition vifh the old monopoly. pr. Greea differs vesy maaeriaIly from his predecessos, William Ortcn. Both, thowevar, were men of the world, enioy- ing the good things q lie ip their sea- son. Bat the death of Ortod and the in- stant success of Green 70 to show how utterly absurd 1t is for any man to sup-i pose that his life or his exissence hes ant allimportant bearing upon any of the great enterprises of the day.
 When Orton died, 1t was supposed the Western Union telegraph company had receivod . mortal NoW, almoss, but if Ortoa .was to suddealy return to life, his great gray eyes would open with amaze msst q tAsy ss:ssd upoa paper state ment of the businen doae by the com Ho1y oAsA sA9V voDS 6kG8 O1 V01C0 lI 00908 coatrol Grsen is not oaly nan of busi- ness and vast easssprise, but he e help ful, considsEate, friendly pezsou, to whom tens of thousands look for guidance and opportunity to work.
 One reason for his seat endurance is the ease with which he relieves his mind of business strain. When ha leaves his office, at four or five o'clock iu the after nooo. he leaves behind him the worry and fury of his most busy place. The calming, seducing influence of a good cigar leads him gently from the plane of disturbance and the hurly- y-burly of com- petition towards the level of peace and quiet, afler which a gentle stimulant re- secres his tired eaesgiss, and . pleasant drive to the comfofts which seclusion grants makes him again . man ready for the thought and teil and hothsrmeats of the morrow. With his sfeady hand upon the helm the great company of which he is the contToller and director. as we'll las president. pushes proudly through the waves of composition, quite confident. in its own strength, that 1t will receive its full share of public favor in the future as It has 90 many years in the past.
