There has been no other road in the
west so we'll managed as the Nil. l.. S. x
w. Though local road its stock has
for years been above par.
The General Manager, Mr.. Whitcomb,
is one of the shrewdest railroad man
ayers in the west and it is largely due to
his excellent judgment that the road has
paid so well. He has the confidence of
everyperson who knows him, and has
lost none of his kindness of heart or re-
gard for his humble friends by his adj
vancement. The fear that the sale of
the road will place him elsewhere than
IN the management of it, is'the most dis
tasteful part of the transaction.
The road is now part of one of the
greatest systems in the world. Men best
informed on railroad matters insist that
the change cannot be otherwise than
beneficial to Manitowoc.
