Merit Always Wins

The hard times of the past
three or four years have been
very destructive to all industrial
affairs. and the railroads have had
unusual amount of difficulty in
making both ends meet. Roads
that have, during this trying
period, earned dividends while at
the same time atfording high-class
transportation facilities to their
patrons, have, indeed, been fortu-
nate. And such an event speaks
well for the management of the
roads.
The record of the Nickel Plate
Road during the recent period of
industrial depression has indeed
been remarkable, and it speaks
most eloqueptly of the conserva-
tive Judgment of the managers.
For this road has made great and
steady progress in the material
improvement of its roadway and
appliances, and in perfecting its
equipment The interests of the
pl, bic have been in no wise neg
lected; in fact, the success Of this
road has Injured to the benefit of
the public, as much, if not more,
than to the stockholders. The
condition of the road to-day shows
this. Great and valuable i'm
provements of a permanent char
acter have been made-in the
shape of strengthening the road
way, bridges and other accessories,
and procuring new and improved
safety appliances; new coaches
have been added, elegant Pullman
sleeping cars put on, new and
powerful engines have been placed
in service, and everything has
been done to raise the standard of
the road, to perfect its service, and
to give it leading place among
the best roads In the country.
The result has been obvious. The
people have observed the progress
sive spirit of this road, have given
it liberal patronage, hav en-
joyed its excellent facilities-and
that tells the whole story of a
highly successful enterprise.
Among the noteworthy improve
ments effected by the Nickel Plate
Road is the introduction of first
class dining car service, which
has won the approval of the best
class of patrons. Then the coaches
have been illuminated by the
brilliant Pintsch gas, heated by
steam and placed i'll care of col
ored porter, so the passengers
have the best money can afford, at
the lowest rates. The through
train service of the Nickel Plate,
running in connection with the
West Shore and Fitchburg rail
roads-over the great Hoosae Tun-
mel Route, between New York,
Boston and Chicago, ranks with
the best in the country, and has
become deservedly popular. Ele-
giant new coaches, and palatlal
Pullman buffet sleeping cars run
through without change; the ser
vice is unexcelled, the time fast
and the scenery most fascinating.
Located along the south shore
of Lake Erie are many substan-
tial and attractive summer resorts
that are yearly growing in popu-
larity, and this class of travel
promises a continual increasing
source of revenue to the Nickel
| Plate Road.
