DEVILS LAKES FIRST DAILY.

We commence the publication of a
daily paper because ne believe. such an
institution, properly conducted and
moderately %patronized, will benefit
Devils Lake. There is no money in it
for the printer; VI expect to donate our
labor, and shall be satisfied with re.
ceipts sufficient to cover the actual cost
of making a creditable and entertain.
ing sheet.
The DAILY INTER-OcEAN is no boys
play; neither is it a fruit of political av'
arice. It is a Devils Lake institution,
published in the interest of the whole
people of the Devils Lake region. it,
policy is dictated in Devils Lake; in
fact, its policy is dictated in the INTER.
OCEAN Office by the person whose name
appears as editor and proprietor at the
head of this column.
The Daily will be published regu'
larly so long as our fellow citizens sus
tain it. We shall make it a credit tc
the town and county, if a long expert
ence in daily journalism and an earnest
desire to benefit this superlative regior
will stay by us in the endeavor. Devil
Lake can sustain one good daily paper

Boxwocd Getting Scarce.

SIN less than one year the price of
Doxwood has treb!ed," said a hardwood
healer in Centre street, New York.
pletely exhausted the market of a Ger
tain size of lockwood. Less than eight
cen months ago I could sell a ton of
thrce-inch lockwood for $S8, and it
would be irst-grade wood in every re-
spect, and admirably adapted for turn
ing small work. The demand then
was steady, and the principal consum-
ers OF the wood were rule-makers,
toolmanufacturers, and turner's who
supplied the market with boys tops,
p%ool-pins, and toys of various kinds.
The sudden and remarkable growth of
the roller-skating pastime has created
Il constantly-increasing demand for q
certain size of wood, and now it is inn
possible to purchase a ton of suitable
wood for skate-wheels for $120. Roll
ers are made in several sizes, ranging
from n and fve-eighths to two and
one-eighth inches in diameter, and
only the natural growth of lockwood
approximat ng these sizes is fit for use.
Large wood is too costly, and is less
firm in resisting the tremendous strain
of q skaters weight upon an axle only
1882 of an inch in diameter. The box
wood grows in Persia and Turkey, and
heretofore the crop has been handled
in England. 1t is d wood of very slow
growth, and in its native country
stringent timber laws restrict the de-
pletion of the growing trees. At the
present rate of consumption the world
will be practically exhausted of its
lockwood in less than twelve months,
unless some equally cheap and durable
substitute is found to take its place."
HAS nothing been tried which gives
promise of superseding boxwood2"
asked the reporter.
"~Yes-rubber. celluloid. rawhide.
vulcanized tibres. and compressed pa
per have been tried in making rollers,
but for one reason or another they
have proved unsatisfactory. Some
have been found too soft, while others,
like pure celluloid wheels, have been
found too expensive for general use.
and the necessary metal bushings have
proved Objectionable, because the grit
and dust from the floor and the shoes
of the skaters. wearing between two
metal surfaces, has rapidly cut away
the axles of the skates.~ Rollers with
anti-friction bushings, consisting of a
number of small steel plugs freely. re.
vOlvlng around the axles, have been
tried with some composition wheels
with success, but they are necessarily
very expensive, and on this accoun,
cannot come into general use."
"Will no other wood than lockwood
answer?"
"Only for very cheap skates. Dog
wood, apple, pepperidg &c, laurel, ant
lignumvitae have been tried by almos
every roller-maker, and all have bee,
rejected. The lignumvit@ alone is har'
enough, but it will not stand the strait
of the small axle. Metal wheels witt
a rubber surface are made. but nothin,
, has yet been found which in all respect
is as good for the purpose as boz
, wood"

Short on Wheat,

CLEVELAND, O., March 5.-The wheat
in the north and northwest half of Ohio
went into the winter in good condition
and is now we'll covered with snow.
The south and southwest half is badly
damaged from severe freezing and has
been without snow protection nearly all
winter. From the present advices the
damage is placed at so per cent in4he
south half of Ohio, which would give a
loss to the whole State of Is per cent.
From late advices from all the winter
wheat states it is thought that the yield
of 1885 will fall largely below that of
last year.

THERE ara some startling revelation

THERE are some startling revelations
from Bismarck. 1t is related that a
Pierre syndicate has been offering
money for votes in favor of that place
for the capital. A house committee is
investigating the business. Our legislative
correspondent says it is surprising to see
the amount Of indignation Mckenzie
and the old gang were displaying over
this last proposition to buy the capital.
They are shockedi Great hesvensl
how virtuous they have become.

There's a precocious youngster in
this city, aged 6 years, who, when his
grandfather is away from home, con-
siders it his bounden duty to 20 up and
sleep with his grandmother so that no
harm may befall her. The other night
he went up to the house for this pur-
pose, and before retiring looked into
the closet where was kept his grand
fathers swords. Placing it on the
table by the bedside, he said to her in a
most assuring voice: "Grandmarm,
we'll keep the sword right here all
night, and if any one breaks in I'll 20
for 'em; don't you be afraid one bit"
His grandmarm, as she kissed the little
man, assured him that she felt perfectly
safe under his protection and, saying
bis prayers, the defender of his grand
mother and the pride of her heart was
loon in the land of dreams. Gtouces-

q remarkably eloquent speech he made
half a dozen years ago before the ILL

said some very beautiful things of poor

distinction in the wal against rebellion,
and has for several years back been one

Again, your children have a better

grow up to be men and women, know
ing very little, of the terrible ~sufferings
of city tenement house life or its evil

but in the two-room western cottage,

tentment that cannot be described.
