proposed line of rail rood between these two cities A large and enthusiastic meeting of the citizens of the two was held at Midland City on tbe evening of tbc 23d Inst which meeting adjourced to meet at iy City next week I am Informed that Messrs 8age Co propose to iron and stock the road as soon as tbe road bed is prepared Tbe building of tbls road would be a great saving to lumbermen in getting tbeir lumber to market as It is about the same dis tance from Midland to Buy City as to Eut Saginaw and those lumbermen living st or owning lands above Midland could well affurd to lend material aid to tbe enterprise The snow Is very deep In tbe woods and Is quite a hindrance to lumb rmea in hauling tbeir logs but as they have tbe teams and men It la impossible foi them so they are all at work at a disadvantage The general Im pression seems to be that not as much lumber will be put into tbe rive a this winter as last The general business of merchandising in the Ssglnaw Valley is slack at present owing to tbe large number of Its citizens who are em ployed in the lumber eamps during tbe winter Money la also scarce and probably will be until spring Tbe banks are doing a little
