The Superior times. [volume] (Superior, Wis.) 1870-1912, 1882-12-23
The Great Railroad Grange.

Since our last issue the railroad war
has come to an end and the Omaha
has changed hands. That road is now
under Vanderbilt's control. President
Porter has sold out and resigned and
Marvin Hughit takes his place. Sen
ator Sawyer gives up the vice-presi-
dency but remains director A ma
jority of the new directors are Wander
bilt men. The Chicago & Northwest
ern and Omaha systems are now
practically under one control, although
actual consolidation may not take
place, yet they will be operated so far
as the running Of trains is concerned
as one line
Well, what do you think Of it?
How do you like it? are questions
often asked these days. The answer
is, generally, that it is a good thing
for this country. So Ear as Superior
is concerned we can see only benefit in
the change On the completion of the
Eau Claire branch in few DAYS, SUI
perior will be the terminus of q main
stem of the Northwestern, running
straight up through the state Of Wis
consin from Chicago and Milwaukee
to connect with the Northern Pacific
at this point. Radiating from Chica-
90 one main branch Of Vanderbilt's
road connects with the Union Pacific
at Council Bluffs, another with the
Northern Pacific at Superior Truly
the railroad king now has magnii-
cent property We look for a better
equipped road and better connections
from the change. 1t is the general
impression that there will be no
change in the management of the
Omaha. We hope this is true, for
more competent, more popular or bet
ter men than assistant president Win
ter, general manager Hatch, suDerin-
tendent Gere, and all the officers it
would be hard to find. The people of
this country would greatly regret to
see them go.
What are the next moves on the
railroad checker board? The air. is
full of surmises, but no one can tell
Some think that Vanderbilt will not
stop till he acquires the Milwaukee d
St. Paul, the Manitoba and the North
ern Pacific, just as Gould has absorbed
all the roads in the Southwest. One
thing is pretty certain, and that is that
Vanderbilt viii not let his line end at
The Superior times. [volume] (Superior, Wis.) 1870-1912, 1882-12-23

If the Omaha railroad company
want our people to patronize that road
they must brush the cobwebs out of
their eyes and commence making
time and be more prompt in deliver
ing goods. Under existing operations
it takes from ten DAYS to three weeks
to get consignment of goods through
from St. Paul. We have made two
orders since the road began business,
and in both instances the delays have
been most grievous, and ours are mild
cases as compared with many others.
Neither will people travel over the
road if the trains are going to be from
five to eight hours behind time as
now. Give us better time gentlemen
and we will all stand by you.

A NEW DEPARTURE
a Portion OF Duluth 10 Secede nmd
Join Superior.

he TeSluentS OF lark TolnC, lying
south of the canal, are, and have been
for a long time, dissatisfied with their
treatment by the city of Duluth, from
which the canal cut them off, leaving
them practically on an island. Dur
ing the summer the only means of
communication with Duluth was by
means Of a skiff ferry, and on very
stormy days when the seas ran high
through the canal, there is no way at
all Of crossing. In the winter there
is usually cheap suspension bridge
erected across the canal, over which
persons may travel on foot, but teams
have to make a long detour around
on the ice. Many of the Park Point
ers think that as the canal has cut
them off from Duluth, and places them
on the south side of the St. Louis, for
the main volume of water from that
river is carried out through the canal,
they should, for geographical reasons,
if for no other, be detached from Min
nesota and attached to Wisconsin, to
which latter state all south Of the ca
nal now belongs. They think, too,
that they would fare better under the
commonwealth of the Badger state.
We learn that this matter has been
discussed quite seriously by many of
the residents Of Park Point for some
weeks past. Last week a delegation
Of citizens from there visited our city
to see how our people felt toward an
nexing Park Point to Superior. 1t
may be that the Minnesota legislature
will be asked to cede the territory in
question to Wisconsin. SO far as Su-
perior is concerned we think she would
gladly welcome and receive Park Point
and It's people. The lower end of
Minnesota Point is only mile away
from Superior, just across the bay,
and the interests of the two places are
ute Identical Park Point has a
population of about 500 It has two
saw mills and other industries. It's
area is about 800 acres, covering the
narrow strip of land commonly known
as Minnesota Point from the canal at
Duluth down to the light house appo-
site Superior. It's accession by Supe-
rior would benefit the latter by in
creasing It's population and taxable
area, and by adding to our already
extensive water frontage, than which
no better ground for docks exists at
the head of the lake than on Mime
sofa Point The change would benefit
the Pointers by placing them under
control that would give them roads
and means of communication with the
outer world, and greatly relieve them
from the heavy burthen Of debt under
which Duluth and St. Louis county
now groans, and which is likely to be
increased. Let the secession agitation
progress, and we'll see what we'll see.
