The Ore Business

Ishpeming - The appointment of D. M. Philbin to look after the
ore traffic of the South Shore finds favor in the sight of the min-
ing managers. His reputation gives assurance that this part of the
business will receive close and intelligent attention, and that there
will be a car service next season that will leave no cause for com-
plaint. The failure to give Ishpeming shippers satisfactory service
was the means of the road losing considerable business last season.
