INDIAN RIVER, Oct. 18th 1881.


TO the Editor NORTHERN TRIBUNE.
DEAR SIR:-I have been so very busy
nights and Sundays" that it has been
impossible for me to address you, hoping
that "the powers that be" will "give us
rest we will "thank God and take
courage" As you we'll know the iron
horse has passed our busy village and
the iron rail is well on its way to join
hands with the rail from ChebOygan.
The much talked of "Iron Gang" passed
through and nobody injured.
The two words Iron Gang" are in
tended, perhaps, to create CONSERVATION
with the timid and when we say that
some (the weaker parD of our people
were somewhat dismayed we draw 1t
mildly. However the presence of "Char-
lie the keeper Of the peace" with his ef-
ficient deputies and our Ed. as right
bower we were spared any scenes Of riot
here.
Charlie and Ed succeeded in cooling
four in the cooler.
Master Oscar Hayden son of our coun-
ty surveyor and esteemed fellow towns
man Peter Hayden, sustained quite Sc
we're injuries from vicious horse. The
horse reared and falling upon Oscar
causing fracture of the 5th rib, right
side, with severe hemOrrhage from lung,
also severe confusion near base of brain.
We are pleased to say that he is now
cOnvalescent.
The Mullet Lake House is closed for
the season and "mine host" BOckes, of
the Indian River hotel, is reaping ben
eft, ifit were possible as he has been
"filled to overfowing" all the season.
Business is booming, not day but par
ties are here prospecting to locate all
kinds of business, viz, hardware, crock
cry, groceries, drugs and "last but not
least" hotels and billiard halls. Several
fine stores are approaching completion
and when the iron horse arrives in all
its glory and regularity we expect that
Indian village will jump clear out of
sight.
We had the pleasure of enjoying fine
"bear steak" Said bear came to his
death by the hands or gun Of our towns
man Cramer.
Mail closes in 8 minutes, more anon.

Harbor improvements.

Major HarwOod of the U. S. engineer
corps, who has charge of the harbor
improvements on lake Huron, was in the
village yesterday. He says his estimates
for our harbOr will include dredging
the harbor to depth of fifteen feet and
the building of pier'on the west bank
of the channel to connect the outer pier
with Macarthur, Smith & Co.'S lumber
pier and that.he will strongly recon-
mend an appropriation by Congress of
an amount sufficient to complete the
work. The Major says Cheboygan has
not heretofore received the appropria-
tiOns which her Importance has demand
ed, and that while her appropriations
have been doled out in small amounts
other places, of far less Importance, both
as to business done and the interests of
navigation, have been literally served.
The question naturally arises why is it
this has been so? We believe the reason
to be the fact that but little interest has
been taken by our citizens in the mat
ter, and no effort made to secure such ap-
prOpriations as was needed, while in
other places the matter was closely look
ed after and everything shown up in the
best light that would be calculated to
have any influence. We believe that if
our citizens make an effort that an ap-
preparation sufficient to complete the
improvements Of our harbor can be Sc
cured, but as long as there is no interest
taken by those who are the most deeply
interested in the matter, it could hardly
be expected that others would take very
much interest in looking after an ap-
preparation.

Successful trial trip.
From Detroit Post and Tribune.

The new steamer AlgOmah, built by
the Detroit dry-dock company for the
Detroit, Marquette and Mackinac rail-
way company, made her maiden trip on
the river yesterday and proved decided
success. The Algomah is intended to be
used as ferry in connection with the
Detroit, Marquette and Mackinac rail-
way at the straits of Mackinac, and is
constructed on the most approved ice
breaking model so as to enable her to
run without interruption during the
winter. She is of the following dimen-
siOns: Length of keel, 125 feet; over all
1876 feet; beam, 33 feet; moulded depth,
13 feet inches. depth of hold, IL feet.
Her wheel, which is nine feet six inches
in diameter, is turned bya fOre-and-aft
compound engine with cylinders 81 and
81 x SO, the steam for which is furnished
by an Otis steel boiler feet inches
shell by 16 feet long and p inch thick
ness. The engine was built at the Dry
dock engine works and the boiler by
Desotell & Hutton. The steamer is very
complete in all her appointments. On
the main deck are the engineers and
fireman's rooms, with place for the deck
hands forward. On the prOminade deck
are a large general cabin for passengers,
handsomely carpeted and furnished with
chairs and settees. cOmmOdiOus dining
room, ladies' cabin and washrOOm, a
general washrOOm, pantry, kitchen,
officers rooms, and heavy weather
room for the crew in cold weather. Her
pilot house is on the hurricane deck.
The Algomah will probably leave for
Mackinac on Saturday, towing the scOw
which has been bnilt at Springwells to
take cars across the straits. She will be
commanded by Capt. A. A. Kirby, with
James N. Riley as mate and +. Saunders
engineer. At her trial trip yesterday she
easily made 15 miles per hour.
The following gentlemen were on
board: III. b. Ledyard, general manager
of the Michigan Central railway; James
Mcmillan, president; Chief Engineer
McKewen, and Frank Milligen, general
manager of the Detroit, Marquette and
Mackinac railway; Hugh Mcmillan, the
Hon. John Owen, Capt. S. B. GrummOnd,
Alexander McVittie and Frank 4. Kirby
of the Detroit dry dock company.
The hull of the AlgOmah was built at
Springwells and the upper-wOrks at the
Detroit dry dock. all the work being
done from model and drawings prepared
by A. M. Kirby and under his supervis-
ion. Her value is in the neighborhOOd
of $4,000.

The Extra Session Of the Senate.

In accordance with the proclamation
of President Arthur the United States
Senate convened in extra session at
Washington last Monday. Both the
leading parties appointed committees of
conference which met last Saturday but
failed to effecG any compromise. ThOs.
f. Bavard, Democratic Senator from Del
aware, was chosen President pro. tenn.
by strict party vote he receiving "a
votes to 80 opposed. Senator Davis of
Illinois not voting and Senator Malone,
of Virginia voting with the Republicans.
An effort was made by the Republicans
to have the new senators from New York
and senator Aldrich, successor to the
late Gen. Burnside, of Rhode Island,
sworn in before president pro. tenn.
was elected but the Democrats having a
majority, would not consent. Tuesday
the new senators were sworn in and
took their seats, although objection was
made on the part of some of the Demo-
cratic me mbers to the admission of the
New York senators on the ground that
their election was secured by bribery.
1t is rumOred that Senator Bayard will
not be allowed to enjoy his honOrs very
long, but will be retired and Republi-
can elected to the position.

The Jackson, Lansing a. Saginaw
Railroad Extension.

The following extracts we take from
the Otsego County Herald, published at
Gaylord, the editor having made a trip
over the road to Indian River:
At present, but very little ballasting
has been done, only the track laid, and
put in condition for the construction
train. Track laying, however, is pro-
crossing very rapidly, it having been
laid for six or eight miles beyond Indian
River and we are told by Mr.. Hendrie
that had the weather been favorable,
connections would have been made by
this time with the work south from Che
boygan. This part of the work however
will soon be completed. leaving only the
ballasting which by the wav is quite
lob, and will require considerable time
1t is designed however that 1t will be put
into passible condition for the passage
of regular trains this fall. As in most
cases, the road runs through the very
worst part of the country, and strang-
er not considering this fact would OBJ
tain from riding over the road quite an
unfavorable opinion of the country, but
we found from inquiry of the engineers
of the road, who are more or less familiar
with the country along the line Of the
road, that the land is generally good and
suitable for agricultural purposes. The
road bed lies along the ChebOygan river
for distance of IL or Is miles south
from Indian River, and the land is either
very hilly or swampy considerable pOr-
tiOn of the distance. At Vanderbilt we
observed very neat passenger and
freight depot in course of construction.
The country on either side of Wander
bilt is very fine, and the prospect for that
place seems very encouraging. The next
station on the road is at the forks of the
river about 16 miles north of Gaylord,
which is called TOrey. This city can
best be seen by referring to the plat OF
the village. made by the surveyor. In
this case it would be the trees instead of
the houses that would prevent Yankee
Doodle from viewing the town. At pres
ent there is one building in the place
which is occupied as residence, store,
and pOst-office. The surround \ y country,
however is such as to build up town or
moderate size. At Indian River we
found small village springing up,
which eventually will grow to a thriving
town. 1t is situated on the river that
forms the connection between Mullet
and Burt Lakes and has the advantage
of the inland navigation between Petos-
key and Cheboygan as well as the rail-
road.
During the day the party chartered
boat and enjoyed trip down the stream
about miles and into Mullet Lake, ar
irving at the Mullet Lake House in time
for dinner and to take the line Steamer
back. During the trip down seven nice
pickerel were taken and several ducks
were shot. At Indian river we were
shown through one of the largest mer-
camille houses of Northern Michigan
owned by Mr.. Martin, who carries a
stock of about $4,000, and who's sales,
during the month of August, were S.
600.

The Growth Of the South.

The great increase in the population
of the South, as shown by the census
of last year, was the occasion OF loud
outcry against the honesty of the South
eru enumeratOrs when the figures be-
gan to he presented. Republican ora
tors in Congress and out of ii and Re-
publican newspapers joined i'm impugn-
ing the accuracy of the census, and In
charging the South with q conspiracy
to swell its propOrtionate representation
by systematic fraud.
But investigation showed that those
charges were altogether baseless, and
though their utterers have never with
drawn them. now. when the full re-
turns Of the population Of the Southern
States are in, we no longer hear Of any
attempts to dispute their honesty and
accuracy. The growth of the pOpula-
ton of the old slave States during the
last twenty years Is as indisputable.
We say during twenty years, for the
figures of the census Of 1860 afford a
better basis for comparison than those
for 1870, when the enumeration was
manifsstly defective.
This increase is the most surprising
and suggestive result shown by the
census OF 1880. 1t disappoints the con.
fident expectations of great proportion
ate Northern gains under the new ap-
portionment, and it proves that the
South has been gaining in population
far more rapidly than the old States OF
the North, especially those Of New
England.
The following table shows the popu-
lation of the old slave States In 1850,
while slavery was still in existence;
their population as furnished by the
census of 1870, whose accuracy IL now
reasonably questioned; and their pOpu-
lation in 1850 as given by the more trust
worthy census of last year:
