The North Star Mills.

During the past six months, Messrs.
Coleman, Jackson & Co., proprietors of
the North Star Mills, have been max
ing some valuable improvements in
their mill, the most important Of
which is the Introduction of what is
known as the roller system. This
necessitated an entire over hauling of
their mill, taking out the stones
and putting in rollers in their place.
Although this improvement involved
an outlay of upwards of $4,000, it
will pay them in the long run, as it
not only increases the capacity of
their mill from rs to 125 barrels per
day,-the amount they now manufac-
ture, but also improves the quality
of their toqr, which now ranks among
the best in America. Their patent
-four is sold in Philadelphia for as
much per barrel as is the product of
any of the justly celebrated Minneap-
oils mills, WHICH is saying considerable
when we take into consideration the
perfection they have attained in that
city, in the manufacture of the staff of
life. If all the -four from the North
Star equals in quality that which we
have recently been using from their
mills, it is no wonder to Us that their
brands are making an envlable reputa-
ton. st. P. Journal.
We are glad to learn of the improve
ments the above firm are making, in
their FIGURING mill of that city,
They have one of the largest mills in
central Wisconsin in our sister city,
Centralia, and it is one of our best
paying industries. We could make
room and appreciate few more such
enterprises, as we'll as such men as

ggB@The Daily, Evening Wisconsin
very pertinently says, in recent
number: How very few persons
though during the nations trial in
putting down the gigantic rebellion,
that the time would come within less
than one generation when two mighty
iron ways would be laid across the
continent, we may say uniting the vat
ers of The Atlantic with those of the
Pacific. Yet to-day that remarkable
achievement is realized. The Central
Pacific aud the Union Pacific unite the
middle and northern states with San
Francisco. Now the Southern Pacific
and the Texas Pacific lines are open,
and trains are daily running through
from San Francisco 10 New Orleans,
thus uniting all the gulf states in di-
rect communication with San Francisco
Three years ago, when we were in
Texas, the Texas Pacific extended
only to Fort Worth, thirty-two miles
west of Dallas. Now it is finished to
El Paso apd the Rio Grande River,
800 miles further west, where it unites
with the Southern Pacific, while the
Marshall and Shreveport Division has
been extended to New Orleans, dis
lance exceeding two hundred miles.
Three years ago, these improvements
hardly seemed possible, Tcm Scott
was at the head of Texas Pacific, his
credit for that road was nearly exhaust
ed, and the impression was that the
NATIONAL government would have to
complete the road. Fortunately a
syndicate of New York capitali8ts
bought out SCOTS interest, and going
to that mighty center Of commerce
and wealth, obtained the millions Of
dollars necessary to complete the line
from New Orleans to San Francisco.
We may add, -incomparably great are
the individual energies of the Ameri
can people.

DgP Last Sunday afternoon five
men Norwegians, from logging camp
on the south fork Of the Popple,
visited the place of Henry Welsch,
seven mileg west of this place near
Green Grove, and took possession OF
the house. They pounded Henry up
in bad shape, drove Mrs. Welsch from
the house demolished windows, doors,
chairs, stoves and other furniture.
No less than eleven windoEs, sash,
glass and all, were broken, several
door panels and one stove broken and
tipped over. When the stove tipped
over bfr. Welsch's eldest son, Daniel,
attempted to extinguish the fire and
one of the brutes struck him over the
head with a chair cutting considerable
of cash in his head. After getting
away from them the boy rushed out to
one of G. L. Coleman's camps, about
half a mile from the house, and asked
the foreman, Mr.. JAS. Kennedy, to
send a crew of men to the rescue.
Jim picked up a crew and started for
the scene of carnage, upon their ar
rival they found the five men drawn
up in battle array, armed with clubs.
When ordered, by Kennedy to skip,
they answered in tones of derision and
dared the crew to advance, which they
did, on the double quick. A fight
ensued in which the first party we're
pretty badly used up, one of them so
much so that he could not run when
the rest did. We have not learned
the full extent of damages nor how
badly Henry and his family were in
iured, neither did we learn the cause
of the row, though suraise it was be-
cause Henry refused to sell them
liquor, as it was only about ten min
utes from the time of their arrival at
the house before the work of destruc-
ton commenced. We understand that
steps have been taken for the arrest of
the whole gang, one of whom, was so
badly pounded up that he could not
escape, and is now in custody Colby
