Our columns, last week contained the
announcement that the canal which the
people of Duluth have been cutting
across Minnesota Point, for tho purpose
of diverting the ST. Louis river into their
harbor, and which was recently finished,
had been filled up at the mouth by a
northeast storm. The Madison Journal
says that Judge Spooner, Assistant At
torney General, has just returned from
Duluth, and makes the same report. He
says that the mouth of the canal was en-
tirely filled, and teams were passing over
it. The wind and waves, therefore, are
likely to end this canal controversy much
more efectually than the courts could =
The court proceedings, however, will. we
presume, be carried forward until an in
junction is secured, lest an effort be made
to reopen the canal.
Apparently, harmony between the
miners and laborers at Hyde Park has
not been fully restored, as previous re-
ports have stated. A meeting of labor
.ers was attacked by miners. and riot
ensued, in which six men and two women
were injured. The riot was not very
bloody, but may.prove serious in its re-
suits by enlarging the breach between
miners and laborers and leading to other
like scenes of outrage. The miners
threaten other attacks if the laborers re-
sumo work, and there is much excite
ment of dangerous tendency in the
town. Meantime the negotiations be-
tween miners and operators are slow and
unpromising.
