must, therefore, school ourselves in the effort to learn how best to serve our pa- irons, and at the same time be just to ourselves.
 The employees on that occasion presented Mir. Plant with loving cup, and this is how their spokesman talked:
 ''To promote the well being of our fei- low man, to upbuild the material interests of great and growing states, and to see new life, hope and promise rise up with smiling face and outstretched landen hands, is indeed enough to fulfill the meas ure of any ordinary ambition; but when to the qualification which springs from such q consciousness is added the knowledge that those who labored with and under you in these great enterprises, whose part 1t was to follow and obey, are each and all as loyal and devoted to you personally as you have been, through many years and trials, to the great interests confided to your care, satisfaction must ripen into that contentment which only comes when the softer green of our better selves is in the ascendant.
 Tt is the earnest prayer of the employees that for many, many years yet to come your life and activity may be spared to the great properties which owe their ex- istence and prosperity to your foresight and sagacity, and as the seasons come and go they crave for themselves no high CT privilege than to refill this cup with re- neweds affection and esteem"

of which he was the head without prej- udice to political or military movements. President Davis admired the frankness of the man, and gave him a pass which en- titled him to move hither and thither at will, through army headquarters or where ever else he pleased. It is but seldom that any man can carry such mark of personal confidence. but the integrity of Mir Plant fully justified the trust Presl- dent Davis placed in him.
 It is not necessary to tell the story of his life or to rehearse the varied and tre- mendous interests of which he Is the head. Better than his financial success is the affection with which he is regarded by people of all classes and by his own em- ployes. In his turn in talking to his employees, he usually breaches good doc Urine. In an. address that he made to them not long ago, he said:
 I would have you recoilect that we are the servants of the people. who are our patrons. to the extent that we must treat their property, while in our possession, with all the care we would our own. We must be careful in our manners and our speech. We must see to it that no pa tron of the Plant system ever comes to an officer or employe for information with out getting it to the fullest. We must also see that our connecting lines of rail- ways receive proper treatment from us. Be sure that we cannot well serve the pub justly anG properly.

THREE OLD TIME
 RAILROAD MANAGERS

There are veterans-and veterans. We hear more about old "Mammys" and In- dians who have 'lived to be a hundred" than of prominent men. The latter are with us always, and while it seems we cannot remember when they were not. the former class of centenarians grow in a nfght-are discovered.
 Three veteran railroaders are John l. Blair, Samuel Sloan and H. B. Plant, aged se, 80 and IS years respectively. The vet eran of veterans, John l. Blair, was born Aug. 22, 1StJ2, and is therefore now in ahis ninety sixth year. It was more than half a century ago--in 1S46--that Mir. Blair first became associated with the building of railroads, through the old Oswego and Ithaca line Since then he has been asso- ciated with scores of railways, and is to- day d member of the board of directors of twenty-two different railway companies, besides numerous land companies, etc. MT Blair commands not only the. esteem, but the warm and affectionate regard of all who are his associates, and the zpublic work which he has done in his life in the promotion of industry and the giving em- ployment to labor is incalculable.
 Samuel Sloan, president of the Delaware, Lackawanna and Western (not to mention ten or dozen smaller companies). was eighty years of age last Christmas day

B. Plant. of the Plant sys- tenn is 7S years old. His last birthday was celebrated throughout all the section which is his special beneficiary. The good he has done for Florida is speaking mon-
 ument of his progressive and philanthropic personality
 "The coming of MT. Plant to the south (which was in 1s53) really marked the op- ening of Florida to the people of the coun- try" said Clark Howell at banquet Nat the Atlanta exposition, two years ago, and another speaker called him the "great international developer The story of how he got his struggling infant indus tries through the stormy days of the war Is interesting, it has been told:
 The Adams Express company, having already covered the north and west, was anxious to push down into the southern field. MT. Plant who had from his youth been connected with the express bus-
 ness in the east, was sent down to Au- gusta, Ga. as the headquarters from which to operate the southern branch of the new business. It was but a few months un til the success of his labors was appar- ent. and his interest in all manner of transportation was such to make him man to be sought after by those who were interested in business. When the clash between the states came it threatened the wreckage of the business built up by MT. Plant and it was at this point that with rare frankness. he made his way to Pres'- dent Jefferson Davis. To him he told the story of his struggling venture. of tho interests involved. of the necessity of the business of which he the head to the nenale of the south. and while boldly de- claring that he in no manner approved of the political movement which sought to rend the states vet he svmpathized with the peone and it was his desire to re- main and conduct the business ventures

We agree,' said Jackson, "and we will fight with pistols at ten paces.' The captain declined the terms; the men were never reconciled. The captain died many years after regretting that he had not killed Lee.
