The Detroit, Mackinac .S Marquette

The Marquette Mining Journal de-
scribes trip over the western end of the
Detroit, Mackinac & Marquette, as fol-
lows:
The track is already completed thirty
miles east from this city and a regular
daily train, carrying mail, passengers
and freight now, runs to Rock River, a
distance of twenty-siX miles. All along
the line at intervals of from four to six
miles are situated lumber camps, kilns
and supply stations, making all the bus
mess that one daily train can we'll
attend to. The principal freight bus
iness is that of hauling the charcoal
from the various kilns along the line to
the furnace i'm this city, besides an I'M
mense amount of hard cOrdwOOd, which
is being got out on lands east of Sand
River, and which is being shipped in
large quantities to wood dealers in this
city. At ChOcOlay, Sand River and Deer
ton, stations four, fifteen and twenty
miles out, substantial and neat depots
and freight houses have been erected,
and, though small, are much better than
those at small places on the lines OF
many of the older roads. From ChOc-
Olay to Sand River the road runs through
a sandy plain of Norway pine, and is so
straight that trains can be seen almost
the entire distance of eleven miles; but
beyond Sand River the land is more un-
dulating, and is timbered with maple,
hemlock and some beech. The Union
Fuel Company have kilns at point
three and half miles beyond Sand River,
which is put down on the time card as
Whitefish Kilns, deriving its name in all
probability from the Laughing Mhltefish
river, which flows into the lake in close
proximity to the station.
At GlenwOOd this company has a store
i'm which supplies are kept for their
various camps and kilns. At present
Rock River Station is the metropolis
along the line, for here is situated the
boarding house and supply station for the
men employed in grading at points fur
gentleman, and popular, has supervision
of the cOmpany's and contractors inter
ests at this place. The train connects at
this point with the Munising stage, and
a tri-weekly mail is one of the blessings
enjoyed by the latter place on account OF
the new railroad. At present, only a
box car furnished with stove and pine
benches, serves for passengers, but the
company expect in a short time to have
a coach on the line. The train is in
charge of John Christie, of this city,
who cannot help but give satisfaction to
the company and the patrOnizing public
on account of his even temper, gentle
manliness of department and business
qualifications.

Those Answers.

Our cOtempOrary essays to answer the
queries prOpOunded in the TRIBUNE last
week. He still insists that Cheboygan
is full of thieves, gamblers, pimps and

knows of several places that are as bad
as ChebOygan but intimates that he
knows of none that are worse. This we

given our town is thrown in the faces of
our business men, when they visit the
business centers of our state and the eff

exceptionally hard place.
1t acknowledges that it has assumed
that the TRIBUNE has defended vice and
states that this paper has "fatly denied
its existence and has sought to hide from
the world the fact of its existence" All

qualifiedly false. The TRIBUNE has not
denied the existence of vice in our town,
but did claim, and does now, that there
is not place, of its size, in the state
where there was less crime, nor where
life is less endangered.

has been driven in his replies to resort
to hard words and personal abuse is, we
think, sufficient evidence that it was in
