Several of the merchants are complaining to headquarters
about the passenger and freight service of the DSS&A railway.
Prominent land companies, owners of several mines are
preparing a list of complaints from those operating their
properties to forward to headquarters of the railway
company. The Delay, Short Steam and Antigquated is going to
get its hair pulled if it don't do business in a business
like way. The service was wretched last summer and all the
mines will take a particular pleasure in describing their
complaints. If the road intends to carry all the passengers
and ore’ it will have to make a decided improvement in the
methods lately been employed.
