MIR. HOARD WAS RIGHT.

The intelligence of the Pilot ed
ton at Manitowoc has been insult
ed by Mr.. Hoard. And if the ed
itor has no objections we should like
to insult it some more. The insult
was in Mr.. Hoard's alleged and
certainly truthful statement that
the Mills bill is a bill originated by
Southern people, vindictive in its
inception and secret in its opera
ton, deliberately designed to de-
stroy Northern industries, etc.
This is fact-a solemn fact, if
Mr.. Cleveland will lift his copy
right from the word solemn" for
a moment.
That the bill is sectional, nobody
can deny. 1t leaves a duty of
more than 70 per cent. on sugar, a
Southern industry, and III per
cent, on rice, Southern industry,
and releases the duty on cotton
bagging and ties. 1t takes off or
reduces the duties on salt, now al
most exclusively Northern in
dustry, on lumber, a purely
Northern interest, on wool, chiefly
a Northern interest, on iron and
steel, largely Northern interests,
on glass, rubber, brushes, etc, all
Northern interests. 1t maintains
the duty on harvest Irvine while
taking it off cotton bagging and
ties.
That it is Southern measure,
inspired by Southern men and
intended to operate secretly to
cripple Northern industries, we
have reasons to believe from Mr..
Watterson's remarks in the Cour-
ier Journal to the iron and steel
men in the South. Mr.. Waiter
son said:
Southern furnace men should
bear in mind that a high duty on
imports will keep up active COM
petition in Northern furnaces,
while a very moderate duty would
protect a fair profit from foreign
competition, while greatly enlarg-
ing their field by closing many
Northern furnaces on account of
the cost of production:

man. So is Mr.. Mills, who drew

He was born in Pennsylvania,
November 20, 1910 and removed
to this state in 1854, arriving at
Oshkosh on the fifth day Of Aug
ust On the seventh day Of the
same month he started for Shaw
ano on the old steamer Barlow
but that boat was destained never
to reach there, for she had barely
left her moorings when boiler
exploded, killing the engineer and
fireman and badly injuring several
of the passengers. The next boat
that left for Shawano was the old
gPetona' which safely made the
trip, and the subject Of our sketch
landed in ShaWano on the eleventh
day Of august. He Immediately
hired out TO work on a farm for
Lewis & Andrews, which firm
owned large farm, a saw mill and
a large tract of pine land that
afterwards became immensely ,valu-
able, some of it selling as high as
$500 per thousand, on the stump.
He worked for them during the
fall and winter for $1,000 per
month, which was very good
wages considering that the best
men were at that time paid only
from $1,000 to $500. The next
Spring he went on the drive and
stayed with it until the logs were
RATED at the Bay, twelve miles
from Oshkosh. This was late in
the fall and for the summers hard
work he was to receive $3.50 per
day but did not receive a dollar,
as the man he worked for ran
away and never paid any of his
men. This was in the fall of 1855
and was about the first of log
driving on the Wolf, though few
logs had been run down earlier
than that. From that time on, for
the next FIVE years, he worked by
the month in the summer and
went to school in the winter; thus
obtaining valuable experience and
a fair education. When he was
twenty years old, he began to do
business for himself, putting in logs
in the winter and doing public
work, such as building bridges,
roads, etc, in the summer time.
He continued in the lumber bust
ness on the Wolf river until 1874,
when he closed up and moved to
Jenny, now Merrill, with view to
engaging in the same business
there. At that time logs and
lumber were very low; the very
best logs bringing only $500 per
thousand and of course there was
little profit in the business at such
prices for logs. The price of
lumber, however, would not war
rant the manufacturer paying
more. After the line of the Wis
consin Valley railway was extend
ed to Merrill, he organized a

We hear but little talk about
our candidate for State Senator,
but he is SO popular and his
election is already conceded SO
that apparently he needs nothing
said. He is a tip top good fellow
and universally liked. His
election is assured the only thing
needed is to know how large the
majority will be. See that the name
of H. H. Price is on your ticket
for State Senator.

ARTHUR AT CHICAGO.
He Declines to Throw Any Light on
His Future Elans.

CHICAGO, April l0-Chief Arthur has re-
turned to the headquarters of the striking
Burlington engineers and firemen. He ar
rived IN the city this morning from Cleve-
land, and went at once into conference
with Chief Sargent and Chairman Hodge.
The arrival of Chief Arthur was an event
OF interest to the strikers and railroad DIN
clals alike, as it was generally assumed that
with his presence the strike on the Burllng.
Ton would enter upon new phase. ChleI

he was, as usual, totally ignorant of any
new move contemplated in any direction,
nor did he possess any Information upon
any subject whatever connected with the
strike beyond what can be found in the
public prints About to-day's meeting he
had nothing to say. His only utterance
was just what he gave out when the strike
began, that the attitude Of the strikers was
unchanged. They were confident that the
burlington would not in five years obtain
outside Of the Brotherhood a full force OF
men. He believed that the Burlington
stockholders would before long take hold OF
the matter and that a settlement of the

ARTHUR AND THE KNIGHTS.
Chief Arthur was asked: as there any
truth in the report that the Knights OF La
Dor and Brotherhood have patched up
peace, and that the Knights will order
general strike on the Burlington roadF
That is something that | know nothing
about. If the Knights OF Labor are con-
templating any such action they have

patching up peace is concerned

there has never been any just grounds for

been grossly misrepresented in this matter
but have set forth the true facts in the
case to Mr.. Powderly, and there is now
better understanding Letween us. 1t was
claimed during the strike on the Reading
road that | supplied Brotherhood men 10
take the places Of the striking Knights.
That is absolutely false, as did not inter
fere in the matter at all In fact, when a
workman engaged in fight for the better
ment of his condition goes out on a strike,
regard the man who will, under such cir
cumstances, take his place as utterly I'M
worthy"
The Chicago Times will say tomorrow;
1.-The exact date when the brakemen EN-
ployed on the Burlington road are to strike
has not yet been determined, but that they
will go out very shortly unless some ar
rangement is made between the company
and the striking engineers, tiremen and
switchmen is about decided The plan to
have them go out was gotten up weeks ago.

Hudson was last seen Easter Sunday, when
he left his boarding house before noon to
attend church. He never returned and all
traces of him end at his departure from the
mouse. He was boarding with Mrs. Red
on upper Broad street.
MYSTERY ABOUT A DRovER
1t seems that when Hudson left for
church he was accompanied by young
man from Texas. who had come to the city
with horse drovers. The landlady says the
Texan was strapped the day before and
tried to borrow 81 from her. The young
man returned to dinner alone, and when
asked about Hudson said he had accom-
panied him to the depot where he took a
train for home That night the Texan paid
his bill and had a good roll OF
money. He left the city, and
the authorities are now endeavorlng
TO trace him. 1t Is believed that the money
he had was the funds that had been ell
trusted to Hudson. The latter's father
feels that his son has been foully dealt with
and is investigating on that line. 1t cannot
be learned that Hudson purchased any rail
road tickets or made any preparation to flee
with the funds. HIS paper was paying him
fairly well The matter is enshrouded i'll

can clear aWav
