S. S. Merrill, formerly general manager
of the Milwaukee road was something of a
prophet. As an illustration Of this the fol-
lowing incident is told by Judge Chandler;
1t was years ago when A. b. Stickney. now
president of the Minnesota & Northwestern
railroad. was superintendent of the st.
Paul, Saltwater 81 Taylor's Falls road, now
the Saltwater branch IF the Omaha. Mer-
rill always thought very highly of Stickney
and at one time tried to gel him to come to
the Milwaukee road, but Stickney saw a
bright future elsewhere, and shaking his
head knowingly refused to 90. One day S.
s. Merrill. Judge Chandler, Stickney and
number of st. Paul citizens
were seated In Merrll's office
discussing railroad matters. The railroad
men in those days referred to Stickney as
"Old Red-Head" and it was by this name
that he was generally known I'm railroad
circles. This day the tide of conversation
turned on Stickney and Judge Chandler
him about the red glow of his hair. The
Jest went round and was handed from one
to another until finally S. S. Merrill. set
ting back in his chair. said:
''BO 8, I'd like to say right here that there
are great lot of railroad brains in that old
red head. and don't you forget it,
There was depth of truth in the words
of General Manager Merrill. as has been
proven since they were uttered Stickney
has showed himself to be one of the shrewd-
est railroad managers and successful pro-
jectors in the Northwest.
