Ity Of 1000, and he was reelected for
a second term while he was on n tour
in Europe in the face of bis own posi-
tive refusal of the nomination. He
felt that he could not decline such an
honor, and he acquired in his second
term national reputation by n speech
in which he pleaded for the admission
of the territory to statehood.
While In congress Mr.. Elkins mar.
ried a daughter Of ex-senator Henry
Gassaway Davis of West Virginia.
This alliance made him acquainted
with great undeveloped resources Of
that mountainous state, and 1t decided
him to throw in his lot with 1t.
Began Acquiring a Fortune.
After the expiration Of his second
congressional term, although he was
always recognized as one of the lead
ers of the Republicans aud was n
member of the national committee. he
severed his connection with New Mex
leo and lived for two years in Wash
ington. He found that as westerner
of national repute be could make mon
ey by looking after the legal business
of the great interests which were
growing up in the newly developed
states.
Next he became interested I'm rail-
roads and turned his attention more
and more to the development Of his
wife's state in cooperation with her
father. Together they conceived the
West Virginia Central, which winds in
and out of the Allegheny mountains
1t threads the Cumberland region and
taps a district enormously wealthy In
coal and lumber.
Owning as he did In West Virginia
hundreds of thousands of acres of tim
berland and thousands of acres of
mines, Mr.. Elkins became the I'M
crowned king of the state. He divided
his power with his father-in-law, but
In all their interests they were united.
He came back into politics again with
the nomination of James G. Blaine at
Chicago in 1884.
1t has always been supposed that the
Maine statesman owed his nomination
to the railroad man from West vir-
ginia. and four years later Mr.. Elkins
again tried TO make him the Repub-
lican standard bearer. Mr.. Blaine re-
fused, but it was only after he had
cabled positively from Florence, Italy,
that Mr.. Elkins ceased to press his
claims.
