.John I Blair that he Is he only one
or the very rich men In this country
who has dliected all his nffalis and
accumulated a vast fortune from head
quarters outside of a gteat city. Be
hat as It may, thete are few men who
hive had a wider knowledge ot this
lountry. Its possibilities nnd Its de
velopment than he.
BEGINNING OP A CAItKi:it
John Inslee Blair was bom on Aug.
22, ISO.', at what was then a little set
tlement in the woods, two miles below
Belvldere. N. J , on the Delaware river.
Ills ancestois wen Scoti h Presbyter
ians. The founder ot tho family in
this country was John Blair, who came
fiom Scotland nnd fettled in New Jer
sov In 1720. He and his brother, Sam
uel Blah, who came to this country a
j ear or two Inter, were both clergy
men and were among thos-e who pro
cured from Governor Belcher the or
iginal charter for Princeton college.
John Blair became the professor ot
moral philosophy in the college and
Si.mucl Blair -vice president nnd pro
fessor 01 rhetoric. John I. Blair's
grandfather. Samuel Blair, a son of the
Ptlneeton professoi, was the manager
nnd one of the owners of the old One
fold iron futnace in tho centie of War
ren county, N. J. The lion fiom tho
furnace had to be shipped by Dclawaru
liver boats. Somebody had to attend
to the loading of the boats and tho gen
cial shipping of the iron, and to Sam
111 1 Blair sent his son, John I Blair's
father, to tho point on tho Delaware
liver wheie the lion was put on th"
boats This was known ns Toul Rift.
WANTED TO BH RICH
VVlipn John I. Blair was old enough
lit attended a school In the nelghboi
hood foi .1 few w Intel s. He was far
moie interested, however, in the buhy
life about the iron furnace and the
shipping place than In an education
The one thing that lie desired was to
make money. One dav, shortly after
his tenth birthday, he said to his moth-
Mother, I have got seven brotheis
and thrie hlstei That's enough in tlu
family to be educated. I am going to
get tlch "
The (list mone he earned was bv
t lapping mutki.its and labbits and
felling theli skins nt $1 for sixteen.
Bofoie he was 11 years old ho was a
leik in tho general stole of Ills cousin
at Hope. At 14 ho was considered the
bt storekeeper In that part of the
rouutrj He thought ho was himself,
and at 1" ho owned a store of his own
The store was Mtuated on what was
known as Urnnd Hill, which Is now
within the confines of Blahstown. He
took his cousin John for a paitner and
they opened a geneial stoic. It is said
that the capital put into the business
wag $500. A couple of yeais later Mr.
Blilr boirowed some money fiom his
motbei nnd bought out his cousin In
two j pais he was able to keep a elerk.
and he brought his brother James from
tho home faun. Two jenrs lutei he
stalled a launch store at Marksbor
ough, wheie he made James his part
nei. Then he opened another store (it
Jolmtonbuig and put Robert, nnother
bt other, In as his manngei. By lRIO lie
had five geneial stoies In operation.
The otheis weie nt Paullns nnd Hunts
Hle. In each of these stores lie hnJ
some of his brothers or brothers-in-law
employed
PLAN OP BXISINHSS
Ills plan of doing business was till?:
There was. no teady money in that
neighborhood, products being the cur
tency. Mr. Blair would buv the crops
bf the farmers in all the sui rounding
rounties as tln-aply as possible, pa
Ing for .them In nieichundlse fiom his
stores. Then In would market the
Stain and othei uops J 11 this city or
m New nil; To do this iio had to cm
ploy a guat number of teams and his
w igons weid always on the road. His
ill Ivors were also supercargoes, and if
they could make a successful deal on
tho road they were instructed to do
-o. It wa not unusual for them to
fcuy a load of pork or buckwheat when
only half way or less on tho road home
from market. Immediately upon load
ing the grain or tho pork, back they
vould start for market again.
Many are the stories still told In
JUalrstown of John I. Blair's early ex
periences in trade. Ono of theso ts
about the first money ho mad quickly.
It was when tho Morris and Essex
canal was being built and largo num
bers of men wore eniiked upon tha
j.ork, The creat maiket for their eup-
plies wa at l'atcrson. Blnlr was trad
ing cotton yatn for butter, uml selling
the butter for a shilling a pound at
Patcrson. Hl9 drivers reported to him
that the workmen on tho cnnnl prefoi
red strong; butter to sweet. Immediate
ly upon receiving this report Mr. Blnlr
bought all tho t.incld butter he could
find and mixed It with good butter. He
found n rendy pale for the mlxtuto
and made $1000 clear In one lenr A
short time utter that 11 taigo of cot
ton from New Orleans nuno up tho
Delaware river. The cotton had been
wet In tianslt and It was offered nt a
veiy low price to nmbodv who would
pay tnsli for it. Mr. Blair oxnmlned
some of tho dumugil bales, mnde an
ofier and got tho outgo When tho tot
ton vus unlonded It uns found that a
compaiatlvely few bales had been dam
aged On that deal th young iner
elitnt cleated $14,000.

Mr Blalt luld the foundation of his
fortune whll a stoiokecpor, but it will
Ijp as a lailiojd man th.it he will bo
remembeied As his business gicnv op
portunities foi investing his money In
creased. In I'd Mr. Blair, through
George AA. and Joseph Srranton, be
came Intoiosled In the Iron mine of
Pennsvlvnnlu He became convinced
that theie was money In lion. The
Scranton brotheis settled at Slocuni,
Pa , and In 1846 Mr Blair's money help
ed them to build a laige lolling mill.
This done Blair Indued Moses Tajlor.

THH D.. L & W.
Fiom the first ralhoad which he built
Mr. Blah, with others, developed what
Is now the Delaware, Lackawanna nnd
West ei 11 svstem. It was not until 1SC0
that he undertook railroad building in
tho west. In that year he was sent as
a delegate to the Chicago convention
which nominated Abraham Lincoln for
the piesldencj After the convention
ho and other delegates were invited to
ride over the lines of the Chicago, Iowa
and Nebraska railroad. The ralhoad
officials weie anxious to extend the
line further west, and, knowing that
Blair was1 a verv wealthy man, they
wanted to interest him in the road if
possible. He looked the road and the
countiy over, liked what he saw and
decided to put money Into the scheme.
One of tho inllroad ofliclals asked him
who he thought would be the best man
to look after the building of the ex
tension of the load to Omaha.
"John I Blair," was the answei.
Soon nfter that Mr. Blair took all the
constiuctlon work off the company's
hands and built the road. That road
Is now part of the Chicago and North
western system. A few jeais ago Mr.
Blair with consldeiable pride made the
statement that he had built every road
with which he had ever been connected
for cash anil without putting a dollat's
woith of it1 rtock on the mniket o
raise money lie calculated that In hi J
ralhoad opeiatlons he had spent $2G,
000 000, all of which he either advanced
himself or inlsed among his friends.
In the building of all his western roads
Mr. Blnlr secured enormous land
grants ns piemlums. In connection
with his work on the Union Pacific In
got 1,000,000 acres of land In Iowa. For
finishing the Iowa Falls and Sioux City
road he got 700,000 acies. Tor build
ing the Sioux City and Pacific road,
fiom Sioux City to Omaha, and the
Blair cut off from Missouri Valley
junction, on the Chicago and North
western, connecting- it with the Union
Pacific at Tiemont, ho got CtO.000 acres
of land. He built a railroad up tho
Nlolnnia Valley In Neluaska and took
the luemlum offered by tho state of
100,000 acres ot land
LAND OPHRATIONS i
With all this land on his hands, 10
celved as premiums for building rall
loads, Blair had to do something with
it Ho formed land companies, and
then companies, undei Ills direction, 1
have laid out the sites for what are
now more than 100 flourishing cities
and towns In the west In his rail
road building it was usually Mr Blair's
custom to lake a load that somebody
had begun nnd failed to complete, te
build It entirely or complete It. nnd
then hasp it or bell It to a trunk line
nftei connecting it with the trunk line.
In this wuv he made a ptoflt on the
inllroad building, acquired great quan
tities or valuable land, and made more
money b selling or leaning the road
he iiad thus rehabilitated
The Inst road that Mr. Blair built
was the Kausati City, Osceola and
Southern This road was completed
only last eai, and the finishing
touches were put on under a direction
other than his. Berore the road was
completed Mr. Iliad leased it to what
ralhoad men call tho 'Frisco Line, nnd
tho tenus of that lease show what kind
of bargain he was accustomed to drive.
No one else owns a dollar in the toad.
The 'Filhco Line wanted it for a con
nection, und ho told the managers that
his piopeity was not for sule, but that
he would lease It to them at a monthly
rental of $2,000 with 10 per cent, of
the gross receipts In addition. The
road is 110 miles long and connects
Kanoche Junction with Osceola, Mo.
Tho dlrectois of the 'Frisco Line
laughed at the old gentleman, and he
told them that he didn't care a hang
whether they took his road or not.
They took it.
ANECDOTES,
Any number of stories are told of
Mr. Blair Illustrating the kind of man
he I. Ono Is in reference to the Knly
aotlvo part ho over took In politics.
In 186S the Republicans of New Jer
sey persuaded him to run for covernor.
The campaign is sold ,to have cost
him $90,000 and the Demociatlo can
didate wan elected. Romo of his Re
publican friend?! after the. election.

weie talking with him about It and
endeavored to console him for his de
feat They told him it wus ji shame
and a disgrace und all that kind of
thing, and that tho Republican politic
ians had simply sold him out.
"Oh, don't woiry about that," oaid
Mr Blair "I'm not worning a bit. I
have had the benefit ot a lot of exper
ience I wouldn't begin to pait with
that expei leiue for what It cost me.
You see. I was like the fellow down In
Mlssouii who lalsed hogs He had al
was mniketed them In St. Lou.s.
Somebody told him that he could get .1
good deul more money for his hogs In
Chicago. So ho set out to drive a lot
to Chicago AVhen he got theie he
found the maiket bnd Just switchd
around and hogs weie worth muni
mote In St. Louis. AVhen he found this
out he remaiked: 'Well, if I haven't
got nnv money, I've had tho society
of the hogs.' I wasn't elected govr
not, it is true, but I have had the s)
clety of the finest lot of hogs you ever
saw "
GOT A NEW ROAD.
Several ye.us ngo Mi. Blah leased
one of bis western loads to another
inllroad companj. Ai cording to the
teims of the lease, tho lessees were to
return the load In as good condition!
ns when they took It, and, In the mean
time, weie to make all repairs at thPlr
expense When the leas cxpliod and
Mr. Blnlr Inspected the load, ho found
that It" condition was far fiom ns
good as when ho leased It. Ho de
manded that the damages be repaired.
The lessees refused and Mr. Blnlr
brought suit. Th state where tho easa
was tried and thiough part ot which
the road ran was noted for Its fresh
ets. During tho trial, while Mr. Blair's
lawjer was making the argument for
the plaintiff, the old gentleman Htrolled
out of tho court loom into tho street.
It was lalnlng It was the spring of
the ear, or, lather, just at the break
ing up of w Intel and Mr. Blair
thought he saw signs of an approach
ing freshet. Quickly returning to the
court room, he pulled the coattail of
his lawyer and in a low voice said:
"AA'ithdraw "
The lavvver dldn t understand and
Mi. Blair repeated
"Withdraw. Give up. Tell 'em we
won't contest."
Tho law i or didn't understand what
his client was getting at, but he knew
Mr. Blair's wishes weie not to be dis
obeyed and so he mnde a little speech
to the court in which he said that his
client was a peaceable man; that he
was getting along In ears, and that
he desired him to discontinue the suit.
The defendant didn't know what to
make of it, but the bult was discon
tinued and they were in high feather
That night tho Hoods descended and
the winds blew, and one ot tho worat
fieshets ever known in that part of the
country occuned. AVhole sections of
Mr. Blah's lalhoad were washed away,
ties, tracks and all. Much of the roll
ing stock," even, was destroyed. The
result wus that Mr. Blair got piac
tlcally a new load nnd a lot of new
rolling stock at the expense of the
lessee".
ALLEY VS. BLAIR.
At ono time the Into John B. Alley
was associated in business with Mi.
Blair. Differences arose between them
nnd they separated. Then Alley sued
Blair to recover $J,500,000. AVhen the
case came to trial Mr. Blair was not
ready and his counsel asked for an ad
journment The lequest was gianted.
but the court directed that the defend
ant furnish a bond for double the
amount of the bum In dispute. AA'hen
the announcement was made Blair
aioso and said:
"As I understand It, the bond re
quired will be for $3,000,000." He was
assured that his undeistandlng was
coriect, and he then said: "I rather ex
pected something ot this kind would
be necessuij, and so I came armed. I
suppose these will answer In lieu of a
bond "
AVIth that he went down into a small
satchel and brought out $5,000,000 in
government bonds The Judge looked
at Mr. Blair nnd then looked at the
bonds, and when he had recovered
from his astonishment he said
"Theso are quite satisfactory, but 1
will make you the custodian of them,
with the distinct understanding that
none of them shall be used while the
bond Is In foice."
"Your Honor need not be uneasy on
that seme," said Mr. Blair. "I brought
these here for this especial purpose. I
will have no need of them until this
suit Is decided."
RETIRED.
Mr. Blair has not been paitlculaily
nctlvo In business affairs for the past
four years, but not until a ear ago did
old age compel him to give up his busi
ness. For noailv a eui he has not
left his loom A tuilned nuiso con
