Electronic reproduction of: Transcription of newspaper article : Mining journal (Marquette, Mich.), Mar. 9, 1885. Source: The Daily Mining Journal, Marquette, Mi., March 9, 1885, Monday This paper is of the opinion that the MH and O company's management of the roads operating between this port and the mines about here will not be such as to compel the mine owners to think of building a line of their own. To force them to that step would be to destroy the value of the railroad company's own property and the management is altogether too intelligent and shrewd to do that. It is represented locally by a general manager, Mr. John Hornby, who underst and the situation perfectly, and we feel assured that any proposition to burden mines with excessive freight charges on their freight traffic would encounter determined opposition. |
