OUR MADISON CORRESPONDENT

MADISON, JAN 2lst 1878.
Editor Superior Times The present legislature has
marked characteristics to distinguish it from its
predecessors. The annual activity pending the cleo
ton of Speaker, indicative of their desire to
mand the respect of their constituents by selecting
worthy and web qualified; and in the announcement
of the several committees due regard for their intel
ligent action is evidenced We of the Northwest are
recognized through representative requiring the
thoughtful consideration due to position in the
State.
A Special Committee on Superior Harbor is an
nounced, and Mr.. Montgomery its chairman, will be
prepared to state in not to be mistaken
The feeling of Indignation expressed by those who are
noted here dispassionate men, indicates of
action that will grind all obstacles honorable
adjustment of the questions pending at the Lake. and
with the earnest hgh toned position of Gov. Wash
burn, no unusual effort will be required to secure
prompt action of the legislature any proposition
which our Member may present for
Senator Irish is less Catholic in his ideas of duty
and does not sink his local views and stand up to
represent all portions of his district The bill. intro
duced by him. comforting the grant upon the Northern
Wisconsin, r. r. Co. without condition requiring a
road to be constructed to either Bayfield, Supe
rior is sufficient to your people not to expect
much from the Legislature, unless you shall, peo-
pie, signfy what you wish. To permit the interven-
ton of representations from the Duluth Land office,
and the Agent of London Addition, to go unrebuked,
places Superior in the unenvable position of believing
in her impregnabity.
The Companies asking for the grant, are called upon
daily to concede favorable conditions to localities not
strictly within the limits of the grant; while Superior
has yet asked that the place be named in the
bill. What is necessary for others is necessary for
YOU Then let advise your people to have the in
terests of Superior represented here in time.
The mission of the Governor has been variously
stated but think not correctly by any one. And we
must all abide his good time to explain how far
local interests occupying his special attention
from my stand point am willing to trust him implc-
lilly in the settlement of any question touching the
honor or interests of the State or its citizens
Yours truly, MADISON.

IUMBERING ON THE ST. CRoIX IN DoUG-
LAS Co., WIs.-But few of our readers are
cognizant of the great extent and import
ance of the numbering business being done
on the Upper st. Croix and its tributaries
III the southern part OF this County, within
% to 40 miles of Superior. We are in
debted to Mr. Patrick Kelly, an intelligent
timber explorer, who favored us with a call
this week, for the following items gathered
on his explorations through that section.
On Moose river so miles from Superior,
is located Torinus, Staples q Co.'s two
camps, employing so men so horses and 81
oxen, besides three tote teams This Com
pany expect to get out about 5000, 900 feet
of pine logs.
Ed. Stuart has one camp, also on Moose
river, with Is men horses and oxen !;
will get out 100000 feet.
Martin Moore & Co. on Comstock's
Greek, about 40 miles from this place, have
one camp employing 40 men, Il horses and
6 oxen, besides tote teams. They expect
as the result of their winters work, about
5000, 900 feet.
On the Eau Claire river a few miles east
Ct the above, there are three other camps
the names of the Companies not remem-
bered-hasiag say 90 men, 40 horses and 40
oxen. These camps will probably bank
about 100000 feet.
Thus it will be seen, that on the Upper
St. Croix in the County of Douglas, there
are engaged in getting out pine timber 225
men, Sc horses and 81 oxen, besides supply
teams; and the winters product is expect.
ed to reach l7,5oo,ooo feet of logs.
Most of the supplies for these camps are
taken from Superior, some of the tote teams

notice call for Convention at
Upton to select delegates to the Re-
publican State Convention. We
hear great deal said, and often dis
satisfaction arises amongst the people
about the delegates. This is all
wrong, and as there is an important
crisis upon US at this time. Let us
commence at home in our primary
meetings and select delegates to at
tend to getting right men to send to
the State Convention. Much has
been said and is being said that our
political machinery has gone wild,
and should hereafter be managed by
the farmer. In looking over the var
ious Offices to be filed at the coming
election l find them to be the most
important within the gift Of the peo-

should it be expected that those i'm

filled out Of the farming community.
