THE IRoQUOIs MEETING.

HI 1aO\COO IS ME- a. lNtS.
That was an enthusiastic gathering Of
patriotic Democrats who last evening
banqueted at the Palmer house. Chi
cago. There were representatives of
eight states. and in the coming cam
paign it is not safe to class them all as
Republican in the electoral college.
There have been changes and political
upheavals since the days of 'SS. There
was present Gov. GEORGE w. PECK,
from the once "solid Republican" state
of Wisconsin. There was Ex-Post-
master General Don M. DICKINSON
from the once ''solid Republican"
state of Michigan-the state which
Roscoe CoNKLING once said any Repub-
lidan cound carry-now under the Dem
ocratic administration of Gov. WIN
ANS. There were present others from
states once all classed as 'solidly Repub-
lcan," yet now admittedly doubtful by
the leaders of the Republican party. 1t
was representative gathering Of North
western Democracy, and replete with
Northwestern Democratic enthusiasm.
The animating spark of this enthusiasm

IroQuois club re-echo that sentiment at
the significant political banquet of last
evening at Chicago. The Northwest

as was consistent with the acknoWl-
edged claims of more than one favorite
son. The address of Hon. Don NJ.
DICKINSON, was perhaps the most SEN

upon the popular chord of this most

Chairman Joel P. Heatwole, of Northfeld,

confined his attention to attending to bust

say that he will be candidate for the guber-

piled that he is out of politics. The harsh
and unjustifiable attacks being made on MIR.
Heatwole by some of the newspapers of the
state are very likely to cause decided boom

Evening Stars.

Two beautiful ana very brilliant stars
attracted much attention on the evenings
Of last week. They were the planets
Venus and Jupiter. The close proximin-
ity of the planets, as view from the earth,
is owing to this year being leap year,
and Venus took advantage of it to try
and make a mash on Jupiter. Another
reason Is given, astronomically by the
New York Times, Of February 3D., as fol-
lows
Early on the morning of the 9Th, Ve-
nus and Jupiter are in conjunction, and
the event that has been promised as one
OF the most important OF the year, as far
as celestial tableaus are concerned, will
take place the evening before, when the
two will be very close together. From
what has from time to time been said at
tention must have been for the past few
weeks bestowed upon the two brilliant
planets gradually drawing nearer to each
other. Language seems utterly made
quate to express the fascinating beauty Of
the peerless queen OF the heavens in her
present aspect. Even Sirius, though IL
surpasses In brilliancy the other suns Of
space, pales In the presence of the bright
est gem that adorns the diadem OF night.
Her size is increasing, and with it her
lustre, until she looks like another moon
suspended In the western sky shining
with far more dazzling brightness in
the crisp, clear winter nights than the
moon itself.
She is still oscillating eastward, but
will not reach her greatest distance from
the sun for another three months, when
she will retrdce her course. A careful
observer can track the planets path with
almost the same ease that he can follow
the hour and minute hands on the dial
plate. Her phases, when seen with the
telescope, are striking and brilliant. She
is crescent after Inferior conjunction, a
half moon at elongation, gibbous after
that epoch, and her whole disk Is illum-
ined at superior conjunction. The appar-
ent variations in the planets diameter are
very great, and are owing to the enorm-
GUS change in her distance from the earth.
The brilliant presence OF Jupiter would
happily contains two stars, and the giant
planet has to give way in Importance to
his more charming companion. The
moon i'm her present phase sheds Just
enough light for the proper effect, and is
far enough removed from the scene to be
In danger OF interfering with tho roles
of the chief actors. After this meeting,
during which the two planets are almost
in one, Jupiter will continue to draw
nearer and nearer to the sun, until In
March the phenomenon OF conjunction
between the two occurs, and he will be
next seen In the early hours OF the day,
the leader OF the morning stars. Some
time before this he will, however, have
become Ingulfed In the suns bright rays,
so that when he salutes Venus in passing
he In reality acknowledges himself van
pushed, and leaves her without com,
petitor as the chief Of the GALAXY Of even
Ing stars. Although 1t Will be impossi-
bio to sec the two at the exact hour Of

Important to Alpena.

Last.week w. II. Johnson and Thos. Col
Inns sold their one-third interest In their
Canada pine to Geo. N. Fletcher a. Sons.
The pine is estimated at 200, 100000 feet,
and is situated on the French river, in the
Georgian Bay region. The price paid for
the third interest vas 100000.
The other two-thirds, together with
300, 900, 900 feet Of pine on other Georgian
Bay streams, is owned by f. W. Gilchrist,
G.. n. Fletcher & Sons and w. III. Potter.
The whole amount, 500 900, 900 feet, is be
numbered before many years, and tho logs
will DC RATED to this city and manufact-
ured into lumber at the mills here.
The amount Of pine is almost equal to
three years cut of all the Alpena mills,
and means a great benefit to the people
Of this city. Besides the above, the Com
stock Brothers own an immense amount
Of pine in the Georgian Bay country.
Messrs. Fletcher, Glcbrist and others
have recently purchased the shore privi-
lcges at White Fish Point and at Squaw
Bay, and those places will be used for
booming tho logs AZ they are RATED here,
from whence they can be taken to the
mills as required.
Albert Pack owns large amount Of
pine in the upper peninsula, and has a
log camp there this winter getting out
logs for rafting to his mill in this city
next summer.
The outside pine, owned by Alpona
parties, together with what pine is yet in
this vicinity, will keep the Alpena saw
mills in operation for at least ten years
TO come.

The seasoned timber ut the Alpena
Spool Works has been all manufactured
into spools, and until the present green
stock has been partly seasoned by the
weather, about six days storage is requir-
cd In the dry kilns until II is ready for the
spool machines. The men who work the
spool machines are now paid by the piece,
and they can use up In four days what re-
quires six days to dry In the kiln, conse-
quently the machines are not in operation
every day. The Spool company pay
about 800 for wages every two weeks,
besides which there will be paid out this
winter some six thousand dollars for birch
wood. 1t is thus readily seen what a
great benefit the spool works are to the
people OF this city and county. The de-
mand for spools is greater than the works
can supply, and more spool machines will
soon be set up. 1t is the intention to get
sufficient stock of birch wood on hand
to keep the machines steadily in opera
ton every day in the week, the year
round. The supply OF birch is inexhaust-
ible, and there are good Indications that
tho factory will become the leading indus
try OF Alpena.

evident that 1t does not copy them. We
