San Francisco papers report large receipts
of strawberries, of toerably good quality, but as
yet undecided in flavor.
For twenty years California has been pro-
ducing gold silver copper ore, hides, and other
articles ussd in manufactures, transporting them
to her seaports and sending them thence to New
York, Boston, or Liverpool, to be manufactured
and returned over the same thousands of miles,
enhanced in cost very largely in addition to the
expense of manufacture. Now California pro-
poses to go into the business of manufacturing
for herself. A wise conclusion.
The st. Paul Press prints long communi-
cation from a lady who opposes female suffrage
and who, in her enthusiasm, breaks into parodic
poetry at the close, of which the following
stanza is a specimen
'sThe vote that all prasing
Is not the vote for me;
Its claims are SO amazing,
I'd rather far be free.
But there's a vote in yonder crib,
baby vote, clear, shrlll and glib,
That vote is worth the raising,
And that's the vote for mel
Oh! that's the vote for me!'
"A letter from Jackson Mississippi to the

game there might be in the vicinity. Having
reached the corner of the First National Bank,
however, l came suddenly upon a crowd of men
who were watching these two gunners. From
EXPLANATIONS that were dropped as l passed

the shot guns were waiting for bipeds, they
were not feathered. They were indeed waiting
for man named Dalgreen to come out of a
drug store. Sometimes these men miss fire;
that is why the street was drained of passengers
as came up."

The BAYFIELD, Press has been bothering
its readers ever since "Hank' and "Sam
started it, with apologies affirmatlons and
retractions in regard to table which APP
peared i'm its first issue claiming to be a
comparative showing Of the opening and
closing Of navigation in the bay OF Super
Tor and harbor (?) OF Bayied, whereby 1t
was made to appear that The season OF nav
icatlon was several days or weeks longer
at BAYFIELD,, than at Superior. The pfess
of the 10Th in its usual sckly, apologetlcal
stvle saws it has made an error III the table
il published; that in 1859 The Bay ofSupei
Tor closed on Nov. 9th, ms cad ofDec. 9th:
as stated in The table We would here say
that little or no reliance can be placed on
the correctness OF any of the dates IN the
IA bic, which the Pess says it obtained
from report of President Banning OF the
Lake Superior t. f. In the year 1859 the
first ice OIL the Bay of Supe ior was formed
on the 10th OF November, as appears by the
Superior Ctronicle published on that day.
And r. G. Coburn Esq, an old citizen and
Lake man, informs us that he came into
The Bay and up to Quebec Pier i'll a small
boat on the 30th of November 1859, and
found no ice to impede his pass. sc. The
next year 1850, bis schooner the Pirepoat
came into the Bay wi; full cargo on lhe
| 30th of November In 1861 The same
vessel came in on the tn of December.
| There has been no year since the first
settlements here that a propeller could not
come 10 our docks as late as The first OF
December, and generally as late as the first
Of January.
Did the mere r0odStead at bayfield, de
serve The name Of a 10. Joa', there would
be some fitness and justice in the compari-
sons made by the P cSs, but 10 assume Tor
the lee Of az Island, exposed to L or 10
miles Of wind and sea Oh two sides and TO
fnlI sweep from he broad Lake on an
