The Chicago Lumber Trade.

The leading and influential lumber deal
ers of Chicago held an important meeting
last Saturday, but in the crush and rush of
politics and election but little notice was
taken of their action. In the course of their
deliberations some matters came up of con-
siderable interest to the Northwestern trade.
The fact was developed that Chicago cannot
compete with st. Paul, which, as last week
shown in the GLOBE, will be the great dis
tributing point for lumber in the Northwest.
AS a consequence, the Chicago men
entirely reorganized their list of
prices, cutting down in some
instances, raising a little in others, etc.
There is probably no business which has
done SO much to first, open the Northwest
tributary to st. Paul for immigration, SEQ
oud to shelter the whole incoming caravan,
third to provide q portion of it with self sup
porting labor, and fourth to develope all
other sources of wealth, as the lumber trade.
The people here may have been slow to per-
ceive, or reluctant to acknowledge the fact,
but it bus steadily pursued it's irresistible
course, until even Chicago, heretofore the
great lumber market of the West, is forced
to acknowledge the supremacy of our
greater power and pay unwilling tribute
