Go to discussing the whisky ques-
ton with some very good men in most
respects, and they will tell you that
no town can exist and flourish and
grow into a city without the aid of
the saloon. For the sake of argument
we will admit the point, but we want
to ask these reasoners to state how
many saloons it takes to make a city?
Old Superior has been blessed or ours
Ell with saloons in great number for
may years and she is no nearer a city
now than she WAS thirty years ago
only In so far as our nearer proximity
to cities makes us of more Importance.
1t is evident thai the common saloons
of Superior haye failed in their mis-
sion, so now we are going to have a
wholesale liquor house and this may
bring the great prosperity our people
have so long waited for. Great is

The West Superior Brick COM
pany haYe started up their machinery,
and the manufacture of brick on sec
ton is is now in progress. The mach
inery, which is of the expensive make
and approved order, runs without a
hitch, and performs It's work in most
gratifying manner to Superintendent
Clifford. The crusher is of the largest
size manufactured, and seems to have
a good appetite for clay, while the
brickmaker digests and presents it in
proper shape to be cut into bricks.
The force Of men employed are not
fully acquainted with their duties as
yet, and are therefore not expert. But
when things are once operating in full
swing, with full force of men, they
expect to be able TO manufacture
10000 brick per day. a large dry
kiln, 30x150 feet, is being erected on
the west side Of the plant-Inter-
Ocean.

STEAMBOAT EXCURSION.

The trustees of the Nj. f. Church
at the East End find themselves at
the last quarter of the conference year
about $500 in debt, aud feel that they
must call upon the public to help
them out of their difficulty. As US
ual with them, they always like to
give something in return for what
they get, SO in this instance they haye
decided to give all who wish to con
tribute to their necessities boat ride
to Two Ilarbors and return. The
excellent passenger steamer Ossifrage
has been engaged for the occasion,
and next Monday selected as the lime.
Our people have always responded
nobly when called upon in past EN-
ergencies of this kind, and we doubt
not a large crowd will enjoy this oc-
caslon. A picnic dinner will be per-
taken Of in the beautiful grove at Two
Harbors and plenty of time given for
all needful sightseeing. The boat
will leave Quebec Pier at s o'clock,
touch at Connors Point at $50; at
the end of the Omaha dock in West
Superior at 8 O'Clock, leaving Duluth
at 10 O'Clock, On the return trip she
will come in by way of Superior en-
try, and arrive at Quebec Pier, SUI

Rev. Olympia Brown of Racine
lectured in the Good Templar Hall
Wednesday evening, on the advance
ment Of women The audience was
not large but thoroughly good-natured
and apparently appreeiatiye. At the
close of the lecture number Of peo-
pie united with the Wisconsin Wom-
ans Suffrage Association and subscrib-
ed for the Citizen. The lecturer de-
scribed at some length the progress
already made III this country in mod
flying the common law by the statutes
OF the different states, making married
women property holders, capable of
doing business in their own name and
also opening to them doors CT oppor-
tunity in respect to education and the
various Yocations of life. The speak
er then dwelt at some length on the
need of the ballot, as means Of Sc
curing more just and equitable laws
and establishing purity and good order
in the state. The union of the sexes
in all important interests is a law of
God, which can not be violated with
IMMUNITY, where mer and women are
associated in the varied departments
of life they modify and improve each
other and all is we'll. The influence
of The admission Of women to litera-
ture, to collage etc, was spoken of
as illustrating the advantages derived
from obedience to this law of the uni
verse. The need of woman's ballot
in this age was urged and the audi
ence invited to cooperate IN the work
of establishing, the republican idea
that taxation and representation are
inseparabe The lecture seemed to
be greatly enjoyed.
