The County superintendent.

The division of Grant County into
two Superintendoncy districts seems
to have it's opponents in some parts
ofthe county. Several remoustran-
ces have, we learn, been sent 10 the
Legislature to disregard the action Of
the County Board Of Supervisors
recommending the division. We
have favored tho creation of another
Superiutendenoy district because the
required duties Of the Office are too
great for any one man to properly
fulfill For half y dozen years the
County Superintendent has not been
able TO visit oil the school districts
in the county, and il the number of
districts is considered 270 we think,
each of which should be visited an
nually, as well as the other duties of
this officer there is reason enough for
a change. The law contemplates
the ability of one official in the exer-
else of the duties OF Superintendent
in providing that SUPPLEMENTARY
district may be composed of $4,000
inhabitants. 1.-THE present system
is to continue in force the division
should be made, and the require
ments OF the law IS we'll "a the edu-
cationsl interests of the people of the
county would DO better served
But We think it would have better
had the County Board OF Supervis-
ors postponed action favoring d.
vision until the present incumbent
had served the full term in the Office
to which be was elected.

A New Territory.

The new territory of Oiibway.
which it is proposed to set off in the
northern part of Dakota, will contain
about "A, 900 square miles, being near
ly one-half the present area of Dako-
Ia. The new territory contains a
large area of fertile and well water
cd lands, but its inhabitants consist
as yet almost entirely of Indians
1t will be crossed midway, however,
by the Northern Pacific Railroad.
which will build up settlements and
towns rapidly along it's route, and
from the line of the railroad popula-
ton and agricultural developement
will be diffused in all directions.
The existing white population in Da-
kota, numbering about Is, 900, is con-
centra ed chiefly in the southern
part of the territory, its capitol, Yank
ton, being at the mouth of the James
River, and a vast wilderness inter-
venes betw cen these settlements and
the country which will attract the
attention OF Immigrants who follow
The line of the new railroad.

Iron In w Wisconsin.

The New York Tribune, in speak
ing of"Iron in the West" thus speaks
of Wisconsin:
In Wisconsin, no Pig Iron was
made until 1856, when $500 tuns OF
charcoal iron were produced. The
make ran down 10 337 tuns in 1858
and than gradually rose to about
5000 suns in 1869 all of which was
smelted with charcoal. In March
1870, the Milwaukee Iron Company
put magnificent stone coal furnace
into blast, in the Immediate vicinity
of Milwaukee. This furnace made
1919 tuns of Iron in 1871. Fur
mace "No 2" built by the same COM
pany, blew in the first of last May,
and made in eight months 10,500
tuns of metal. Our Eastern iron
men must look to their laurels, or
they may be found adorning the
brows of some of their Western fell
Wisconsin also pro-
duced in 1871, 2S,774 tuns of rails,
all the make of one mill at Bayview
owned by the Company above named.
AS rail mill, she stands nth on the
