other two big docks are located. 1t
will not be quite as large as the larg-

in the world-but will. be capable of
shipping about 100000 tons Of iron
ore each year. This will give the
three docks of the Great Northern q

year, and will allow the company to
open up many new holdings on the
iron ranges from which shipments
have never been made as yet. It will
make Superior the greatest iron ore

not provide sufficient space TO properly
care for the large number of patrons
