IRON TRADE LOOKING UP

There is a bright future before the iron
interest of this country. Europe, especially
Great Britain, long controlled the iron
trade of the world Many hands made
light work Of an enormous iron production
at cheap rates. England, Sweden and
Russia supplied US with iron, raw and man
ufactured Iron for the smithy, Tor the
railway, for the hardware trade, for the
foundry, was imported more cheaply than
it could be mined and shaped in America
And all the time here were mountains, and
ranges, mines, masses and fields of iron in
America, with coal to match.
But immigration has turned the scale.
The iron masters of Sweden, England and
Wales, have come by scores to the land of
promise and plenty. Their workmen have
come by hundreds, their fellow country
the United States have begun to be devel-
oped. In the meantime, coal lessons in
England, labor rises, and to-day ships are
bearing American iron to Great Britain,
ana are SOOu eApectlHS 10 carry COdiS 10
Newcastle itself spite of the proverb.
In the outcome of this transition of trade,
Lake Superior will yet have great and
ruling interest. The bed of the lake in
part, answers to a valley between two
mountain ranges of iron. The south shore
range has already for years been giving up
its treasures, in the neighborhood of Mar
quette. 1t extends up back of Ashland
whittier a railroad is already being laid, as
fast as men can put it down, with every
probability that on reaching the range, cap
ital will offer to coin due share of the iron
currency of the worlds commerce at that
point.
The iron works on Rice's Point at the
head of the Lake, already sends stoves to
ST. Paul, and the day is not far distant
when by improving the canals and rivers
between Lake Superior and the ocean, yes
sells NAV bear stoves from that point and
other places of iron manufacture on this
lake, to fill orders in England. The north
shore iron region will have a railway, and

and the fact that they have not moved
within that time, is plain indication that
they do not mean to move at all. Is it not
now also, fully apparent that the parties
who have yelled the loudest execrations
against the St. Paul Company for rejecting
the grant, had rather now defeat all at
tempts to build it, than that it should 90
forward under the hands which are willing
to take hold of it?
Since the above was written, we find in
the State Journal of w ednesday, July 2nd,
the report Of an interview of Gov. Wash
burn on this very subject, by the editor of
that paper. The Governor claims to be no
partisan in the matter, and we believe him.
The following extract from the Executives
remarks to the new ST. Croix company is
worth reading:
said to them, the security required to take is
that you shall comply with the requirements of the
law Th law requires that you shall build so miles
in year from March 18th, 1873 and 40 miles each
succeeding year Do you intend 10 comply with the
law? Mr. Knapp very promptly and canddly declar
ed in answer to question, that they did
intend to comply with it that they had expec-
taton of building the road, unless the Supreme Court
decided that the lands belonged to the State. They
are willing to accept the grant and give bond but if
the grant confirmed, the bond would be void
for of consideration If the grant should be
hrmed TO the State, they would look the Legisla-
ture to extend the time, and would then go and
build the road, The remarks of Mr.. Knapp as
sented by the others present. remarked that the
they presented a novel one You ask
take security from you that YOU will do a particular
act, and at the same time you say to that you
know that you cannot perform that act and do not
xpect TO. The security you inclined have
accept, you either either expect will be declared
void that the Legislature will relieve you from it.
Ny only desire is to the road built | care not by
whom.
The Governor also says concerning stock
subscribed, etc:
Imagine my surprise when found that the amount
of capital subscribed by these large capitalists is just
$4,000, and the amount paid up is dollar, far
as know, which exhausted for filing the papers
in the Secretarys office. Though these con
ceded, many of them to be of large financial
ability they evidently possess the virtue of prudence
in eminent degree, none of them have pro
per to hazard a subscription of over thousand
dollars.
From all the foregoing it would appear
that the new company were not so terribly
in earnest, as seemed at first glance To
start out with small subscriptions, faint
heart, and plans to forfeit bonds, is not the
way to build up confidence in, and enthus-
asm for the new road. If the North Wis
consin at this juncture would pick up lit
tie pluck, push their road into Polk county
this season, and ask the Legislature next
winter to give them the grant pure and
simple unencumbered by outside roads,
they would 90 through with rush, and in
our humble opinion it is now the only way
to make s1h'e of the St Croix grant Who
is the Bismarck of the North Wisconsin, to
see victory and take it?

citizen of Clinton, writes from Colorado to
that paper, that reporters of the Eastern
press have written wonderful stories of the
great fertility of Colorado SOIL when they
know no more of such things than child
three years old. Their stories draw men
the potato bug, to find that the little farm
they left was worth 1000 acres of their new
possessions. Hundreds of immigrants come
by every train, to be disappointed.
The scenery and mining richness, have
not been exaggerated, but vegetation and
climate have. Season is backward this
year, and tens of millions of grasshoppers
are waiting for what little produce is grow

Jog the tool still in their hands, they

that, by dividing the Democrats, a SUI
tficient number OF Republicans may be
elected 10 the next legislature to make
FOREMAN his own successor. This
scheme is dictated from Washington
and will have Administration support.
The Governor has been made to believe

hopes to enjoy the chestnuts which

IT should be borne in mind that
Governor JACOB did not deny the au-
thority OF the Board OF Public Works
to make appointments and dischage
other duties required of it 10y law until
six months after the new Constitution
had been adopted and put in force.
tie did not, Immediately upon the
adoption OF the Constitution, seize upon
that asst power OF appointment which
he now claims. He attended meetings
OF the Board; participated in its defib-
erauous; and recognized its authority
as fully as it has ever been recognized
since the formation of the State. How
it could have had legal and constitu-
tional existence during the first six
months after the adoption OF the new
Constitution, and then suddenly be
came unconstitutional, is one OF those
mysteries which the Governor is unable
to explain.
