Major Key has been a director of
tho road from its incipience, aud was
elected vice president of the com
pany last year. He is an honest and
faithful worker, and possesses the
Confidence of the company aud the

The clectiou of Major Key to
presidency of iho company id a u:
served compliment t" thi von, by
gentleman, of which he may v.eli
feel proud. been
Major Key has always a
strong friend tolhe project of com
pleting the mil to this place, and we
trust, now that he has been pro
moted to the presidency for the com
puny, we may soon hoar from him
on this subject.
Cant. E. C. Machen, the energetic
builder of the road, was elected vice
president and general manager j?of
tlie company, bv the directors, at the

The election of Major Key and
Capt. Machen to the management

augurs well for the success of this

both energetic and progressive bus
iness men, and the S tai pronounces
them "the right men in the right
