The town authorities have wisely
prohibited persons from watering their
horses and stock at the public wells,
also from taking water from the wells
by the barrel full. The police have
been instructed to strictly enforce
these rules. The penalty is $40, for
the first offence. The board is to be
commended for this action. 1t is all
wrong for some people to water their
horses at the wells, while families are
allowed to suffer for water. The bay
is convenient enough for stock. Pro-
perly husbanded there is water enough
in the wells for the daily use of fami-
lies. We hope the this rule will be
respected by every one.

SUPERIOR FOR 1882.
Over Half Million Dollars
Expended in Her Local
improvements,
Making a Solid Foundation for
Substantial Work In The
Days to Come.
The Outlook for the Futur Is
Bright and Promi ing!

e tins week present to our read
ers and the public at large our annu-
al report of what has been done in
Superior during the year 1882. While
we cannot record the building of any
large elevators, Touring mills or ma
chine shops, We think the figures Civ
EN- below will show that our people
have not been idle during the year.
The completion of the Chicago, St.
Paul Minneapolis & Omaha line of
road to our city is as much and per-
haps more to our advantage than the
erection of an elevator or mill. This
road in connection with the Y. ?.
| Road will make these other institu-
tions absolute necessities, and necessity
will compel their erection.
But number of very fine houses
have been built here the past season,
our docks have been improved and
enlarged and new ones built; our
streets have been to some extent grad
ed and sidewalked and put in excel
lent condition for both team and foot
travel; the wafer problem is being
solved and our public buildings put in
good order, and the painter and the
carpenter have been kept busy over
hauling and brushing up the town
generally and giving it the appearance
of real, live place. All that has been
done is just as necessary to our future
prosperity health and goodfellowship
as anything else that could have been
done. The foundations for the future
city, which have been laid during the
year, were not only necessary, but
they are permanent and lasting, and
now we are ready TO go ahead next
spring in the work of rearing the mag
nifeent superstructures which are to
give us prominence and commercial
stability for all time to come.
The figures given below are not ex
aggerated, but as near correct as may
be and estimated only in a few cases,
and as an ample offset for any errors
we make no note of the sum spent in
the construction of the Omaha branch
of road and the dollars and cents thus
spent is of little consequece as COM
pared to the great advantages the
road is to the town, and in which tense
its value could hardly be computed.
And while We have been spending
these hundreds of thousands of dollars
in improving our town, our population
has increased from about four hundred
in 1881, to 1000 at the close OF 1882,
four fold increase in twelve months.
1t is no wonder at all, with these
facts staring him in the face, that even
brother Mitchell, of the Duluth Tri-
bune has begun to write it Duluth
AND Superior" Is destined to make
a large city in the near future. But
here are our figures, and they tell
the whole story better than we can IN
words of our own.
