Tho article published on the first
page of this issue entitled "The New
Northern Country will be real with
interest by the great army of seekers
for valuable timber land homesteads,
and will be something of revelation
to lumbermen and owners OF pine
stumpage, the writer's figures being SO
much at variance with those promul-
gated by the census bureau and gen
orally accepted as approximately
correct. The fact is the northern part
Of Minnesota is an unexplored and COM
p,ratively unknown region, and it is not,
therefore, very surprising that the CEN
sus figures appear SO glaringly mace
urate under the light OF recent exploI-
atoms.
In this comparatively unexplored
region Mr.. Shepard says there are
approximately one hundred billion
feet of standing pine or more by nearly
eighteen million than the tenth 1850
census credited to the states of Mich
igan, Wisconsin and Minnesota con,-
bincd. OF this amount about one-fifth
is on the Red Lake Indian reservation.
Mr.. Shepard has spent six months of
the past year exploring this region
and is I'm intelligent writer, hence his
article is entitled to respectful consider
alton.
To those desiring to enter lands in
this region we would soy that, with the
exception of the Indian reservation, it is
all government land and obtainable
only under the homestead laws. They
are unsurveyed, and hence not subject
to entry. but settlement can be made
now, and the first settler will DO EMIT
led to entry when the plat of survey
is filed and the land opened. The
following letter from the general land
Office to the 500 News contains some
information for intending settlers, but
to all such We would soy that this re-
gion is accessible in winter only by
dog teams, and in summer by canoes
or small boats so don't be in a rush
about going there:
There are some Indian reservations
being surveyed, appraised, otc.. in
Minnesota preparatory TO opening them
for settlement, bnt none in the immed-
late vicinity OF Rainy Lake. II you
mean hese, can inform you that
these reservations will not in all prob
ability be opened this year, but may

to complete the survey, etc, and then

THE Detroit Evening Journal, one OF
the brightest, ablest, and clsanest of
the metropolitan dailies. came uncom-
fortably close to being wrecked upon
financial reef fow days ago, but
Ia now happily sailing is smooth waters.
This is how it came about: The Jour
nal has been sturdy opponent Of the
street railway company in its schemes
to rob the people, and the agents of the
concern, at the head OF whom was Jas.
E. Scripps of the Evening News,
determined to either buy the Journal
or crush it. At this time the Peoples
Savings bank was carrying the Jour
nails Indebtedness amounting to $780,
600. Negotiations for the purchase of
the Journal were opened by Scripps,
who offered to put the paper on its feet
financially provided he was given the
controlling interest. But Brelrley, of
the Journal, was on TO the scheme and
refused to sell. Then the process OF
freezing ont" commenced. Brearley was
3 ION notified by the bank that he must re
duce his indebtedness by SIC, 900. which
he arrange to do at certain time,
but before that time arrived the bank
further notified him that they had two
cash offers for the papers obligations
and that he must put up $50, 900 in cold
cash by noon the next day or they
would cell them. Cameron Currie,
agent Of the street railway, was one of
the bidders; the other was represcn-
tstive Of q syndicate OF Mr.. Brearley's
friends, but was not known to be in his
interests. Before noon Albert Ives, Jr.,
aud Don M Dickinson, representing
Brearley's friends, stopped into the
bank with $4,000 iu bills and TOOK up
the paper obligations, t'us saving
Il from being wrecked and NJ. Brsarley
from financial ruin.

Fo. 1jen "A alton.
The latest from tho brain OF the in
genious Yankee is even more practical
than novel, says the Boston Globe.
Day after day it is to be read in tho
papers that some unfortunate has gone
into grave marked unknown, or
perhaps some most prominent and re.
spccted citizen has suddenly disap-
pearod from sight and gone--nobody
knows where. the last. possibly. th1
sequel of the first
Then again. after weeks OF anxiety
and fruitless search some friend or rel
a,ive Is frequently found dying or dead
in some hospital.
Now comes the proverbial "Yank.
and with plan TO alleviate all this.
He has appeared with IN invention
If such it may be called. which he
styles "A Perfect System for ldentii-
cation. And truly. il it were 10 b.
generally adopted. it could but empty
the morgue and place the 'unlino yn
grave on the page OF history only as
thing OF tho past.
Here IS what the originator OF the
plan has to say:
'Fate and chance are the two UNI
controllable factors in every mans life.
Struggle as he may, DO prudent as ho
can the unknown events of the future
bear down upon him with resistless
force and in second he may DO swept
away to a violent death or meet W tn
serious injury.
In this active age bristling with
the dangers Of rapid transit electric
currents, lofty buildings, fast sea
voyages and the thousand and one
complications OF civilization how
necessary to exercise the utmost pru-
Gence!
Invention after invention has been
put out and eagerly sought by The pub
lic for protection until it would seem
that there could be no improvements;
yet the most important OF all has been
overlooked. and that is system for
Identification.
Tho .Yank" has supplied the miss
ing link.
Here his plan:
The prudence OF which he speaks
consists in one registering with the
head OF the concern which he proposes
to establish. or in fact has already
0 .tablished. The cost would be tri-
fling. probably 81 for the first year and
fifty cents for each subsequent year.

Oa the other side is number, no

ber There are also instructions TO
telegraph this number to the head

no sooner received at the Office than

The Detroit Tribune, last Sunday,
calls the attention of the public to
some glaring abuse, in the manage
ment Of the life insurance business of
this country, and from the facts stated
the warning COMES none too soon. The
large companies arc going too fast fox
safety. In their anxiety to secure new
business and swell the figures repre-
Renting assets md liabilities already
well up in the millions, they have made
large inroads npoh their capital to pay
large salaries and commissions. To
such mn extent has these abuses been
CARRIED that it is doubtful if some OF
them are to-day entirely solvent. But
the worst is yet to come. There is a
limit to the abnormal infusion of new
blood. and when that limit is reached
those companies that have spent their
substance for new business will with
er like tender flowers under blight
ing frost. Lie insurance has become
80 popular that nearly every man up
on whom family is dependent carries
q policy in some form or other. The
number OF people interested, and the
amount involved, being so great there
should certainly be something done to
prevent further waste an secure the
permanency of these institutions.

The stirring incidents of the past
few days have brought to the surface
the fact that Minister Egan's son is
the representative Of an American
construction company which has II
claim against the CHILEAN government
for S5,750,000. In 1889 the Chilians
made contracts with some citizens OF
the United States for the construction
OF system OF railways running to
various parts OF the republic. The
contracts were turned over to tie con-
strnction company and>work was prose
cuted to certain stage without receiv-
ing any payments from the government.
Charles III. Williams, of New York,
who il counsel for the company, says
that force Of nearly 5000 men were
put on the work, and that President
Balmacedl ordered that the number
shonld he increased to $1,000. He
then arbitrarily ordered the seizure of
the road and oil the materials and
equipments Of the company. Mr..
Williams wrote to Minister Egan,
asking him to take charge of the com
pany's claim or, in case lie could not +,
to name some one who could. Minis
ter Egan answered by cable, naming
his son, Francis w. Egan, and a
power of attorney was forthwith exc
cuted to him by which lie was given
authority 10 press the claim.
