ali public lands heretofore conditions

grants have not been complied

1t is feared this viii include the
st. CrolX grant, and the Wisconsin
Legislature, under the impression
that it does, has memorialized Con-
81 ess against the passage. of the
act. We cannot see wherein is
does, as this grant was made to
the State OF Wisconsin and not to
individuals or corporation, and
the Government has too long recog-
nlzed the ownership Of the State, for
Congress to Interfere. Besi des the
State has vested rights, as also the
corporation to whom the State has
transferred the grant, by the actual
construction of and present work

Senator Barron deserves the

sort has got TO be done and the sooner the
better. To speak in plain English, it would
be very difficult to find capitalists, who, in
the present condition OF tn ; city indebted
nets, would be willing to invest $50 900 or
Si00,G0O here, in any manufacturing enter
prise, because of our local taxation.
Read together, after reading the
Tribune's annexation article, they
are decidedly refreshing.
Having created nuisance which
they themselves have to cry out
against, fragrant violation of the
rights of the State Of Wisconsin and
OF every property holded on this side
of the Bay, as well as those Oh Min

compromise which they are ashamed
TO own and lay 10 some citizen of

Wisconsin and Superior will submit
TO have its every right IN this con-
trovcrsy tamp!ed upon, and bail

The united voice OF Superior is

our rights are to be respected. No

That Compromise.

In It's last issue the Duluth Til
bune gets off the following cool
item:
Considerable has been said uDon both
sides OF tue bay during the past week about
new compromise nledaure which has been
suggested, III regard To the harbor trouUlrs
between Duluth and Superior. If we are
correctly informed that proposition, is sub
staAtIaliy as follows: That both towns shall
unite Ill asking the government To cut 4 new
canal about opposite the mouth OF the ST
LOUIS nver and then close up the Superior
entry ana also our presen; canal. As our
canal ought To be at least two miles further
down than where IL now Is, We think 1t prob.
able that tie compromise which We under
STAND out Superior neishb0rs propose might
De accepted by Duluth, provided, Superior
and the state of Wisconsin viii give sat.,tae-
tory guarantee OF good taIsh, which. OF
course they would be willing to do.
From the same column this is also
clipped:
The proj eet of having that portion of Dn-
lnth below the canal set off from the city i

terprises atarted here, during the next few

DecIined with Thanks.

In another column will be found
n significant III ticle from the Duluth
Tribune on the annexation of Dor
ton of Douglas County to Minneso-
ia. 1t would ut one time have been
an object to Superior to have become
attached to Minnesota, as it would
then have secured the Lake terminus
of the ST Paul and the n. p. Rail
roads at this the natural point, and
there have been no occasion for Du-
luth and she would never have been
heard of; but now annexation would
simply be suicidal, particularly with
the Nemadj river and the st. Louis
entry as the line.
No, Superior is getting along quite
comfortably, thank you, and must
beg leave to decline Duluth's modes,
leap year offer. With the certainty
of a righteous decision IN the canal
suit within the next year, and the as
equally certain extension of the Wis
consin and Northern Pacific Il: j.
roads to Superior within a reasona-
ble time, we can afford TO abide that
time as loyal citizens of Wisconsin.
