Mr.. E. W. Durant, who has just ar
| rived here from business trip through
the principal business places as far down
the river as St. Louis, reports that the
prospects for IT, spring trade are unusu-
ly good. The demand for logs will be
good, owing to the fact that most of the
mills on the river cut up all their logs
last fall. Some few mills have started
| up and are running at an increased ex-
pense, trying to fill last falls orders. The
| lumber firms generally have on their
books large amount of untitled orders,
| which will make the demand for logs
this spring better than common; yet
| business will not be active for month
later than in former years. The ice in
| The Mississippi IS solid as far down as
| Burlington. Mr.. Durant made sales
amounting to 1,50O, 900 feet, at very sat-
| isfactory prices Mr.. Durant found the
| business men all along the river very
| confident that the spring trade would be
| in all departments very much better than
| It had been for long time.
There seems to be some misunderstood
| ing as to why Mr.. Low withdrew his
name as candidate for alderman in the
| First ward Mr.. Low went into the field
with the understanding that if nominated
Dy the Democratic caucus that he would
9e supported by the Republican party OF
| hat they would make no nomination
| The Republicans met in caucus and made
| 10 nomination, thus practically endorsing
| Mr.. Low as by previous agreement. AT 8
| ate hour Monday evening some of the
| refulgent luminaries of the party, spurred
IN by some of the disaffected Democrats
| called what purported to be Republi,
| can caucus, and put in nomination Lev
Thompson, thinking that by catering to
| the disaffected few of the Democratic
party that they might take this seeming
| advantage and thus run in one of theil
,wn party. Mr.. Low caught the dodge
| It The moment and resigned, and in
laced Mr.. Elliott, the incumbent, to al
ow his name to be USED, thus beating &
prominent Republican at his own game
which was done as square as brick
hus pla, ing him a little joke on the 5ll
f April that would have been good ont
or April LIST.
