THE CONFLICT THICKENs.

Inc nomination of first class state ticket
by the Democratic convention at Madison,
Wednesday, completed the line of battle of
that party in Wisconsin, and henceforward
the struggle will be persistent and vigorous.
\. D. Fratt, the Democratic gubernatorial
candidate, is a man of sterling integrity who
occupies warm corner in the hearts of the
farmers Of the state. He is with them heart
and hand in their social and business plans,
and now that he again claims the suffrages
of his friends in grand work of reform,
they will cleave unto him as true wife to
her husband. Fratt is now president of the
State Agricultural society, and it would not
be surprising if he were lifted into the guber-
material chair by tidal wave of popular
commendation such as characterized the
election of VIM. r. Taylor, the agricultural
ist, in 1888 The ticket is a strong one, and
II earnest effort is made 1t will be winner.
The reuominated Republican incumbents
have had three years in Office, and to very
many voters the demand for another term
seems to have the flavor of Grant regime
in national politics, which was stopped short,
never to go again, after vigorous bid for
third term.

SILVER ISLET.

Silver Islet is a mere speck on the lake
that man with good legs can cross in five
strides. a few years ago it was considered
the richest silver mine in this section of the
country, and it is said that
100000 were taken out of it.
Now it is nothing but an abandoned bit of
ground, almost too small to hold the smelt-
ing works that stand up dark and silent
against the watery surroundings. The own
ers have worked the mine so thoroughly that
only mere sphere Of earth serves as a roof
between it and the waters above. The works
stopped last fall, owing, l was told, TO the
fact Of a coal barge not reaching the islet
before the lake froze up. The fires went out
and eighteen hundred feet Of water now
fill the mine. On the main shore,
where less than two years ago there
was a thriving village, with two
churches, few inhabitants still linger, but
why or whereupon l cannot say. The mine
is abandoned for the time being, but whether
twill be worked again depends upon cir
cumstGnces. / understand an effort is
now working TO interest English capital In

that might be mentioned, but this letter has
already grown longer than I intended.
must not, however, omit to say a few words
about tie Rabbit Mountain mine and Silver
Islet, in most of which st. Paul capital is and
has been interested. On the boat with me
from Port Arthur Monday last was mem
Der Of one of the Wholesale houses of ST.
Paul, but with the modest characteristic of
the business men Of your city, he desired me
to withhold his name. He is one Of the
parties that recently purchased the Rabbit
Mountain mine, and had just come in from
prospecting tour. After paying a tribute
to the improvements recently made
in the GLOBE, and pronouncing
it far ahead of its contemporaries, espe-
cially in its local features. he kindly
submitted to an interview. The company
paid $3.50, coo for the mine. They own 100
acres of land. The vein in one place is 7x3
and the other 14x1; the lead is 500 feet long.
Three shafts have been sunk; No. l is thirty
eight feet, No. 2 ffty-fve feet, and No 3
twenty-eight feet. They have also run cross
cuts from one shaft TO another. At the bot
tom of No. 3 they have struck ore, which the
sanguine owners believe viii run $40, 600 to
the ton. Here's richness for you! 1t is esti-
mated that the ore now on the dumps is
worth $50, COO In Port Arthur / heard it
was worth 500, 600, but my st. Paul in
formant is satisfied with the lower estimate.
The company have a store and board
ing house, and twenty-three men are now
employed at the mines. If the walls of the
mine continue to run parallel, then the own
ers think there is no estimating its wealth.
If, on the other hand, the walls should meet
somewhere below, the mine will pan out,
although what has been taken out so far JUS
tifes the purchase. This is the present con-
dition of the Rabbit mountain gold and
silver mine.

The postofice crowd is much agitated, and
there is good deal of trembling in official

in fact has lost his balance. He even sus-
poets his friends, and is goading the political
wire-pullers and runners to their utmost en-
deavors. He saws Carl Schurz has inflicted

THE KNIGHTS or PTTHIAs.

Of the secret order of Knights of Pythias in

visitors from different parts OF the state.
