...great trunk lines get together to decide what proportion of their freight receipts the M. D. & G. R. R. is to receive for carrying the freight those 6 miles, they are pretty likely to have their own way. Said M. D. and G. R.

I regret, therefore, that even the CRIMSON should be the one to sound a discordant note.
