This site is at the point of CONVEX
gence of four lines of the Railway of
the Chicago, Milwaukee & st. Paul Co.:
The line to the east via New Lisbon,
Portage and Milwaukee, the line to the
west via Tomah and Lacrosse, to the
north via Wausau, Merrill and Toma-
hawk, and eventually to Ashland, and
the lire to the northwest to Superior
9nd Duluth. Forty miles of this latter
line is in operation and work on the
extension is now in progress. The
business of the four lines will all be
handled at this point, the car and the
locomotive repairs usually made at such
points of transfer will be concentrated
here and it being the terminus of
four freight divisions now doing a large
business and a business which will
greatly increase, it will naturally be the
home Of from one hundred and fifty to
two hundred railway employees and
their families.
It's greatness, however, does not
consist IN this fact, but in the advantage
of it's location for the manufacture of
the products of the forest to the north
and northwest. 1t is at the southern
extremity of the finest hardwood
territory in the state of Wisconsin.
This territory is oval in shape and
commences in the north half of town
%, on the line of the 4th principal
meridian, extending with northwest
erly trend to town AZ, and is one
hundred and forty miles long from

MONTANA, OREGON AND WASHINGTON.

The Northern Pacific Railroad passing
through Minnesota, Dakota, Montana,
Idaho, Oregon and Washington was the
first line to bring the region occupied
by these states into communication with
the east. It's main line and branches
penetrate all sections Of these states,
reaching nine-tenths of the chief cities.
1t is the short line to Helena and Butte,
Montana, Spokane Falls, Tacoma and
Seattle, Washington, and Portland Ore,
and the only line running through train
service from the east through the states
of Montana and Washington. Pullman
Sleepers and furnished Tourists Sleep
ing Cars are run via the Wisconsin
Central and Northern Pacific, and
Pullman Palace Sleeping Cars via Chica-
go, Milwaukee, & St. Paul and Northern
Pacific, from Chicago through to the
Pacific Coast without change. This is
the Dining Car and Yellowstone Park
route.
The large travel on the Northern
Pacific line necessitated the Inaugural
ton in June 1880, OF second through
train to the Pacific Coast, thus enabling
this road to offer the public the advan-
tage of two through trains daily to
Montana and points to the Pacific
Northwest, carrying complete service
of sleeping cars, dining cars, and regular
day coaches. The train leaving st. Paul
in the morning runs via the recently
completed air line of the North n Pacific
through Butte, Mont. making this the
shortest line to the latter point by 12O
miles.
Colonists for Washington, Oregon and
British Columbia points should take
no other line than the Northern Pacific,
as by this line only, can all portions of
the state of Washington be seen. Stop
overs, are allowed on second class
tickets at Spokane Falls and all points
west, enabling settlers to inspect the
country without extra expense.
For Maps, Time Tables and Illustrat-
ed Pamphlets, or any special informa-
ton desired, address your nearest
ticket agent, or CHARLES S. FEE, Gen'l
Pass. and Ticket Agent, st. Paul, Mimi.

The Marshfeld News is authority fo

The Marshfeld News is authority for
the following: \ gentleman who has
been in conversation with the
democrats in the southern portion of
the county, in speaking of the political
situation, said. ''There is growing
disposition among politicians in the
other end of the county to make a
complete change in the personnel of
the ticket. Hooper of course is a
strong man and a good clerk and it may
be difficult to defeat HIM but there is
work being done in that direction. 1t
is likely that the others will be thrown
overheard. Goggins is doing quite an
amount of work for district attorney
while McCamley is paying considerable
attention to his canvass for sheriff.
McCamley is strong man and pretty
sure to get more than enough delegates
on the first ballot to nominate him.
Ferdinand Phillips and D. D. Conway,
of Rudolph, are both earnest in their
desire to get registers office"

The New Paper Mill,
WORK ALREADY COMMENCED.

The plans for this new mill were
drawn by D. H. and A. B. Tower, of
Appleton, and the mill will cost in the
neighborhood of 100000. 1t will be
equipped with four 1000 pound engines
and one paper machine 104 inches in
width. This mill, like the Thilmany
mill at Kaukauna, will have no rag
department, depending entirely upon
sulphite and ground wood for stock.
The capacity will be from nine to ten
tons of news or book paper per day.
The mill will be one of modern style
and construction in every respect,
which is sufficiently guaranteed by the
names mentioned of the architects who
will have its erection in charge.

2mlles IN breadth, and comprises over
5000 square miles. The Duluth-Super-
,lor line Of the G. VI. & st. P. R'v now,
,under construction, and the lateral
lines it will build to develope this
country will make the raw products of
this whole territory tributary to this
point. AS fast as the forests are remov-
ed the country will be colonized, and as
1t is as rich and productive as any land
in the west, it will support population
that will make Babcock f1ourishine

for this last assertion is that this site IS
at the junction of the two great path
ways OF, the G.. NJ. St. ?. R'y to the
north, through which that Company is
putting forth its efforts for the develop
ment of the almost illimitable resources
of northern Wisconsin and Michigan.
Its further advantage as a manufacture
ing site Gn addition to its proximity to
comparatively inexhaustible supply of

facilities afforded by the c., NJ. & st. P.

articles over six thousand miles of
populous country traversed by it's lines.

been discovered by manufacturers, and
already three concerns. which employ.

manufacturing plants at this point.

SLURRED JOHN c. SPOONER.

In its issue August 31st the Centralia
Enterprise contained the following
slur upon John C. Spooner, U. S.
Senator. Here it is:
For essence of gall, John G. Spooner
rakes in the whole cook shop. AS
president of the Wisconsin Republican
League he issues a call for biennial
convention in which he says: ''lt Is
expected that the Hon. John c. Spooner
president of the League will be present
and address the convention" and then
signs the call. "John C. Spooner,
President" A good deal of Spooner.-
Elk.
The above has reference to printed
circular issued by the secretary of the
Republican clubs of the state, of which
John c. Spooner is president, and
therefore his name appeared as presi-
dent on said circular This circular
announced that he, John G. Spooner
would speak at the convening of said
clubs in the city of Milwaukee Sept. 4th.
This announcement was given out
without Mr.. Spooner's knowledge and
consent as the following letter from
that gentleman to Mr.. McElroy, will
show:
WASHINGTON, Sept. 8, 1S90-To the
Hon. w. ]. McElroy: Permit me
through you to convey to the conven-
ton of clubs my compliments and
greetings. Nothing but the conviction
that duty requires me to remain at my
post here prevents me from being with
you. 1t is but just to me that | should
say [ was not under agreement to be
there, and not responsible for being
advertised. It will always be a source
of regret to me that | have been unable
to render service in the office to which
| was chosen and to have share in the
splendid work which the League has
accomplished. | congratulate the
Republicans of Wisconsin upon the
favorable auspices under which our
campaign was opened. Our ticket is
admirable and the attitude of the party
upon all questions, national and state,
is in every way defensible. The party is
united and will win.
JOHN C. SPooNER.
We took the pains to answer the
above slur not because we carried the
idea that the Enterprise could accom-
plish any serious results by such
SANDER, but simply to permit its read
ers to know the truth of how the
printed circular was issued without Mr..
Spooner's knowledge and consent, vet
the democratic press will grapple after
any little falsehood and then try to
belle such honored men as John c.
Spooner, of whom the whole state is
proud

The Centralia Enterprise in speaking
of F. MacKinnon's departure added
the following undoubtedly meant for
us: His main object on each
occasion is to pay p visit to his
aged mother who resides there, but on
his return from his last trip he inform
ed a certain gullible newspaper man
not far from Grand Rapids, that he had
gone to England for the purpose of
having silver tube inserted in his
throat, for the purpose of assisting him
in breathing. The statement found its
way into print, as he intended it should
much to his amusement" The editor
of the Enterprise is cute because he is
small and thinks he is always right and
never wrong. In this case he is wrong
again; this item referred was published
before Mr.. McKinnon left and the item
was written by himself and rendered to
us for publication. What object he
had in publishing we don't know unless
it was to gull such suckers as E. B.
Brundage.
