Iron Ore says: Several of our merchants are complaining to headquarters about the passenger service on the DSS&A. Prominent land companies, owners of fee of several mines are preparing a list of complaints from those operating their properties to forward to headquarters of the railroad company. The Delay, Short Steam & Antiquated is going to get its hair pulled if it don't do business in a business like way. The service was wretched last summer and all the mines will take a particular pleasure in describing their complaints. If the road intends to carry ore and passengers it will have to make a decided improvement in the methods which have lately been employed.
