The ROsebnrg Pole-Raising.

To The Gditor OF the ExPoslroR;
VIII you allow mo a space. in your
columns to reply to Wm. McIntyre's
latest, which appeared in your esteem
ed paper two weeks ago. this time over
his own signature? Mr.. McIntyres
latest hardly merits arep.y, for if the
intelligent readers cares to compare
his last with his first he will see that
the one contains a refutation of the
other. We iindlthat Mr. Mcintyre in
his last says that / stated that there
were l25 people at the pole-raising, and
they all staunch. strong-armed Repub-
Leans, and that | cannot produce evil
dence of One-half that number. did
not so state. Let my friend Mr.. McIn-
tyre at least have the honesty to quote
me correctly. What stated was that
there were about 1875 people present
and out Of that number only five Dem
ocrats by sactual count. This ] again
repeat. OF course no counting Of noses
took place, but l estimated the number
present at l25, and think it was fair
estimate; and let me say to my friend
Mcintyre that there were others pres
ent, quite as intelligent even AS his esti-
mate of himself will allow him to be,
who thought it so, but my friend Nc
Intyre. in his first production, states
positively that there were only IA Re-
publicans present. and they were prin-
cipally from Amadore, Brockway Cen
tire, Speaker and Croswell, and now he
comedies the one-half of l25, which is
even then over four times as many as
he stated positively! Oh. William!

ed in the Croswell Democrat to bring
it home TO you? Friend Mcintyre
goes on TO say, The Prohibitionists
come in for a dose" The only thing
said by me that can conceive of in
the nature of dose was in associating
he name of the one party with the
other. when ! said the pole was not
raised by Democrats and Prohibition
lists. 1t was unavoidable. and If any
PrOhibitionist feels aggrfeved at my
doing so. tender him here and now a
full and unreserved apology. My friend
Mcintyre again says the pole is 90 feet

$1,000 Prize for the Four Coolest Days

The Detroit Journal offers to pay
81 600 in gold TO the person who shall
name the four separate coolest days
between December l. 1888, and March
10. 1859, OH which the thermometer at
the l.. 5. signal station in Detroit shall
register the lowest temperature. The
guesses or predictions must be written
on postal cards, one guess to card,
and must reach the Office of the Detroit
Journal before December /, 1888. Cen
eral 4. W. Greedy, the chief of the L.
5. signal service, writes to the Detroit
Journal that the coolest weather will
occur between January II and "a, but
this is by no means certain, for he pre-
dicted that July II, 10 and l6 would be
the three hottest days of 1888. and these
days were exceptionally cool. Although
over 5000 separate guesses were sent to
the Detroit JourD7l in competition for
their $500 cash prize for the three hot
test days, the actual result of the con-
test was surprising; not one of the
guessers named the three correct days.
The Detroit Journal, however. came
within one-half of degree of having
to pay the sum Of $500 to S. L. Epper-
son, 144 Jones ST., Detroit, who guessed
June II. July IL and August 3. This
guess held good from Friday. August
3, till Monday, August 81, when it was
found that on Sunday, August 20, the
thermometer at the United States
signal station in Detroit had registered
81 degrees. The three hottest days at
Detroit were:
June IL .................. 94.2 degrees
July 11................ ...9l.5 degrees

For two years the Exposition at
Minneapolis has had strong musical
features. The Mexican band the first
year created sensation which was
followed last year by bringing
Liberatti's great band from New York.
This season the management have
made contract with the most cele-
brated band in the country, that of
9TH Regiment, New York's crack mill
tary organization, and the opening
day at the Exposition, August 22nd
will see sig. Cappa in his place as
conductor at the head of so iminent
soloists and instrumentalists. Signor
Cappa has been at the head Of the 7th
regiment eyer since he left the Thorn
as Orchestra, ten years ago, and he is
probably the best known band leader
in the world. He has been decorated
by almost every European monarch,
and medaled by friends and admirers
in the East, until his massive chest
has grown too small to allow of his
wearing all the jeweled evidences of
his popularity. The king of Italy
made INN cavalier of the trst-class OF
the Royal Order of Merit. 1t is of
this decoration from the king of his
native country in the army of which
he served his first term Of enlistment
that he is the most proud.

the Duluth papers, stranger would
naturally conclude that Duluth ruled
supreme in the fifth COMPRESSION
al district of Minnesota, which com
prises the northwest third of the state.
But the fact is Duluth makes a
mighty small spot on that section of
the map, and the unregenerate fell
lows IN the south and west part of the
district do about as they please in po-
liticl matters At the late congress
sional convention held to select sue
cessor to Knute Nelson, Duluth did
not ask any favors, she simply demand
ed that she should have the right ac-
corded to her of naming the afore-
said successor. But the convention
only smiled in its sleeve, and then
went quietly to work and nominated
the Hon. S. G. Comstock, of Moore
head, very Objectionable man to the
puluthlans, principally because he is
man honest and of strong discern
ment between right and wrong, and
cannot be cajoled into any of Duluths
private schemes for running Superior's
harbor, Duluth is losing her grip
very fast, and no longer cuts a very
prominent figure beyond Oneota and
Fond du Lac.
