Powell's Cane mill.

One of the many industries in our
village that our people ought to feel
proud of, is the manufacturing of
syrup at the mill eff o. S. Powell.
This is only the second year that the
mill has been in operation, but from
the very start its proprietor has been
determined to produce an article of
sweetness out of amber cane, that
would be second to none in the land
and the degree of success attending
his efforts has surprised even the most
sanguine. The article now manufac-
tured is of the finest grade of syrup,
and of great transparency, with all
the taste of the amber, taken away,
and so pure that it will grain to the
very top. He also manufactures a
vinegar, that for purity and strength
is unequalled, and that is already at
tanning sale hattering to the article
itself. Although Mr.. Powell has done
wonders in this work, he is by no
means satisfied, and is now confident
that the future will be marked by still
greater achievements in this line.
This brings to our people most ex-
cellent opportunity to procure nee
essary household article, that for
cheapness and purity is unequalled.

Political.

Edito JOURNAL:
learn that in some sections OF the
county there is developing opposition
to Mr.. ellison as candidate for Men,
Der of Assembly. 1t is charged that
in the last legislature he was allied
with the "rings" and railroads, voted
for Sawyer and Cameron for U. S.
Senators. &c. Without the knowledge
or consent of Mr.. ellison, venture in
his absence to announce that not only
is investigation into his public record
invited but that he will assume the de-
fensive and force public discussion.
do this because am certain that his
legislative record is not only clean and
correct but the abIest euer made by q
Pierce county member. So far as his
vote for United States Senators is
concerned, / may here say that / was
in Madison during both canvasses,
and am familiar with his course. He
voted for Senator Sawyer, did it under
protest and because the only atter7la-
the a0ds the election Of "BoSs" Keyes.
That Mr.. ellison wanted to vote for
neither of them, and only voted for
Mr.. Sawyer as a choice of evils, |
know from repeated conversatio ns
with him at the time. During all the
Cameron campaign / SGW Mr.. Gibson
stand mp ten feet high IN opposition to
his election, first supporting Judge
Dixon and finally Mr.. Bowman when
the opposition combined on him; and
all this while Cameron's friends were
alternately begging and threatening
because he was from this Congression-
al District and had some local claim to
the vote of our member. ! state that
not only did Mr.. ellison oppose by
voice and vote the election of Mr..
Cameron, but that he and Senator
Price uere the recognized leaders Of
the opposition, and made the most gal
liant fight against q powerful combind-
ton the state has seen for gears.
l close by saying that l am just in
receipt of a letter from the Hon. H.
B. Warner, who having heard that
false reports were circulating relative
to both Mr.. Gibson and Mr.. Haugen,
wishes arrangements made for can
vass of the county by him in company
with Mr.. Gibson the week before cleo
ton. This he does without any solic-
itation from Messrs. ellison and
Haugen. Such a canvass will be made,
and the testimony of Mr.. Warner.
who knows well what Mr.. Gibson has
done or left undone at Madison, prob
ably believed. c. SMITH.

sulky Flows, Common Flows, Wagons, Etc.
The attention of farmers is respect
fully called to the Warren Sulky
Plow Attachment, manufactured by
Joseph Stephens, of River Falls. rms
Attachment is a model OF simplicity,
strength and durability, will hold
right or left hand, steel, iron or wood
beam, new or old plows of any size.
It does not increase the labor of the
team. and can be handled by twelve
year-old boy. 1t is particularly ELL
cient in covering stubble, corn Stalks
and tall weeds. Mr.. Stephens has one
hundred Of these attachments now IN
process of construction which Will be
ready for the fall trade. 4 careful
examination will convince any one of
the practical utility of the attachment.
No farmer can afford to be without
one.
Mr.. Stephens also manufactures
crossing plows, of various sizes, I'M
surpassed and rarely equaled by any
other make. which he sells at very
reasonable prices. His ploWs are
made of the best material throughout,
put 3tAAeA va AeN'S-
In addition to his own lnanufac-
lures, Mr.. stephens also keeps on
hand the celebrated Fish Bros. 4 Co. s
wagons, of Racine, and the kappel
wagons, of Red Wing, MINI. These
wagons are regarded among the best,
and are fast attaining a reputation of
being 1.-The most popular IN use.
Any one who contemplates purchasing
should be sure and call before buying
elsewhere.
Mr.. Stephens is doing quite an
extensive business in the manufacture
ing line, and as all of his wares are
unsurpassed for durability and effec'
tiveness, our people should lend him
encouragement by liberal patronage,
and thus help an enterprise that viii
materially benefit our village. As
straight forward business man he
stands among the foremost. and justly
merits what his interests demand.

Last week we received q pleasant
call from Mr.. Joseph Stephens, OF
River Falls, the great plow maker of
the Northwest. Mr.. S. had a fine dis
play of his work at our fair, the, most
conspicuous was beautiful suky, fit
for any race course, but Mr.. stephens
meant it for a more wise and judieious
purpose-that of guiding the plow.
Mr.. S. and other gentlemen declare
that with this sulky plow will run
one horse easier than with the ordln-
airy suIky. 1t is adapted to any land
side hill or grubby--and works IKE
a ribbon where other plows fail to MI
the bill. 1t is light and strong, and
the easiest thing to draw on wheels,
and is destined. in very short time,
to be better known. 1t can be attach
ed to any pillow. and works equally well
as upon the plows made by Mr.. Steph
