OHIO.s

OttlOS ZEN ~
The Magazine Of american Hisfory con-
tains an article written bv Mr.. Douglas
Campbell, who, in view OF the fact that in
April Ohio will celebrate the Centennial
OF the first white settlement on her soil,
takes this occasion to correct a grave
historical error.
As the ccssion of the area of country
now known as Ohio, to the Government
was a very important feature in our early
history. 1t is natural that Mr.. Campbell
should take hold Of the fact to correct an
error Of history, If there is one.
The alleged error is that Ohio be
lopged to New York and not to Vir.
ginia. as has always been admitted
| New York claimed the whole North
western territory, says Mr.. Camp
bell, and so did Virginia and when the
question of its ownership became so vex'
ing an issue In the formation Of the con-
federation New York granted the whole
of ii to the general Government. Nir-
ginia, Massachusetts, and Connecticut
followed the example of New York and
| offered to cede the Northwestern terri
tory. A committee of Congress consid.
cred these offers, decided that the North
western territory belonged to New York
accepted il from New York, and thus
became possessed of the first property
that the Government owned, and which
gave ii the wealth and power TO achieve
the great success of the Union. That i
Mr. C%ampbell's story condensed.
That such a subject says the New
York 7ymes. should be passed over by
our historians, none Of whom so much as
allude to the report of the congressional
committee with the vast amount of evil
dence by which 1t is supported, affords a
curious illustration of the way in which
American history has been written.
Most Of these writers ignore the whole
matter. Curtis alone, In his history OF
the Constitution, recognizes the title and
does full justice to the magnanimity OF
New York. but ever he gives nom of the
facts from which the reader can draw
his own conclusions"
We note this point in NJ. CampbelIs
article, viz: That New York's title tc
that immense territory was derived from
the six Nations that dwelt within the
present area of New York State.
But the question, is what,title had the
six Nations" TO it, AS far as is known
any set Of tribes, as, for instance, those
under Emperor Powhstan in Virginia.
might have claimed the country to the
" South Sea- which u ancestors of the
colonial period seemed to think bounded
the Southern and Western area Of the
whole of America. We shall leave the
subject, however, to those who have time
to investigate it fully.
Inc most interesting part OF Nr. camp
bells article is the review of the peaceful
and just relations between the Indians
and the colony of New York. One of
the most interesting "reminiscences that
the tourist reads on the banks Of Lake
George is the history of the Long
House of the I%roquois," the tribe that
held Lake George and Lake Champlain,
and made a military post at Ticonderoga,
so that with their canoes they estab.
lished a line of great advantage over any
enemy, rs General Abercrombie found out
to his grief when he attacked the French
at Fort Ticonderoga afterwards.

ACRES BETWEEN ST PAUL AND MINNEAPOLIS 1850 TO 5000
The best residence property about the two cities is in the inerur-
ban district, and it will all become immensely valuabl- in a few years.
Two thousand dollars an acre is IS a front foo', and $4,000 an acre
is 50 foot, and property now selling for $1,000 an acre will in
from five to ten years become the choice residence property of the
city, and when St Paul has a population of from 100000 to 100000
will certainly BE- worth $500 a front foot. We give especial attention
to investments ior non residents, and make it our business TO see that
they get a good profit. We have the most prominent office in the
principal building in St Paul, and the Chamber of Commerce, any
OF the banks, or any prominent man here can tell you that the above
statements are true.

California Patterns After Salt Lake
-General News Notes.

THE business men of Southern Cali
fornia are about TO follow In Salt Lake g
wake, and are maturing scneme to
advertise the farming lands in
that section and encourage emf
grafton from the Eastern States.
The plan or ARRANGEMENT will
be styled Southern California on
Wheels " The managers have arranged
with, and have the cooperation Of,
the Atchison, Topeka & Sa ia Fe r all
road ,CU mpany to take suitab' number
OF their new tourist cars and arrange in
them a choice display of variety of
Southern California productions, N axe
trip east and place them on exhioi-
ton in a number Of eastern cities, the
same to be thoroughly advertised in ad-
vance, and handled as any travelling
entertainment. The trip will be made
during the months of March, April and
May, 1889. Mr.. w +. White, traffic
manager OF the Santa Fe. gives his
hearty approval of the scheme, and
says that his company will cooperate
to make it perfect success. The Santa
Fe is liable to get more advertising
out of it than Southern California.
A WESTERN railroad man proposes
these amendments TO the Inter State
commerce act: First, repeal the fourth
SECTION, relating to long and short
hauIs. Second, repeal the fifth seetion
prohibiting pooling, and author ze that
pooling arrangements be made aud en-
forced by law. Third, provide by law
that the same public notice shall be
