A Great Undertaking.

The work OF printing the Baker ballots in
the short space of time allowed by the COM
mlttee caused much fear in this section as
to the ability of any of the printing houses
of Pitts burg to complete the work on time.
The copy" for the ballot was received by
the PittsDurg Printing Company at IL o o'clock
A. N. Octobe 29, and at o'clock P. NJ No
vember the contract was completed and
in the hands of tho County Commissioners.
This is a record of which any printing house
take this task without tho most improved
presses and skilled management would be q
hopeless one. While the new CotreIl presses
just placed in the large press rooms of this
company added greatly to the success of
this immense undertaking, credit is largely
due the foreman, Mr.. Schimelfeder. His
skill and splendid manas sement OF details
have made for the Pittsburg Printing Com
pany a reputation not enjoyed by any other
similar establishment in this section.

the old basis and we K fooled. The common
people said nothing but voted. 1t is a
question whether they did wisely. The
trouble with the laboring classes started
with Homestead. They read in the news
papers that the country is prosperous and
it is, but the same tale of af-
fairs prevailed with them. They were
told by the Democrats that they did not
share in the fruits Of the tariff, and they be-
lieved them. But am not afraid of the
country going to the dogs. 1t is too big
and is always in the hands of the people. 1
am not afraid of Grover Cleveland, either.
He is safe and conservative. I served in
Congress when he was President and 1
found him pretty safe man. expect the
fellows like Springer, Bynum, Wilson,
Bland and McMillen will introduce into
Congress some wild-eved notions, but they
won't pass Mr.. Cleveland. These men are
theorists. They never had any experience
in business and are i'm PRACTICAL"

PRESS CLUB PROGRAMME.

A Strong Array of Dramatic and Musical
Talent-Every Company in Town to Con-
tribute Toward the Entertainment
Something for Every Taste.
At the benefit to be rendered on next Fri
day afternoon to the Pittsburg Press Club
by the theatrical managers of this city, one
of the biggest programmes of entertainment
ever offered to local audience will be put
forward. The testimonial has met with
wonderful success from the first moment of
its institution. Letters of sympathy have
come from far and near and every artist,
without exception, playing in the city this
week, has rendered his services.
Heading the big bill are the Leonzo
Brothers in the third act of Brother VS.
Brother, in which a variety of tho most su-
perb CANNES are introduced. They will be
followed by Mr.. James H. Wallack in the
first set of "The Bandit King" Therein he
introduces several feats of horsemanship
unequaled in any performance ever seen.
Frye and Hamilton will next be seen in
character specialties They gre both mem
bers of ga German Soldier" Company.
One OF the novelties of the performance
will be the first act of "Under a Lions
Paw" which will play an engagement at
the Bijou Theater this week. Messrs Ham,
and Glynn will follow in refined comedy and
expert musical specialties.
One of the chief features of the entire en-
tertainment will then be seen. Z. S. Will
lard will appear In a one-act drama, ''My
Aunt's Advice" for the first time in Pitts
burg. He will be supported in this brill
liant production by Miss Marie Burroughs
and Mr. Massen. The distinguished sue
cesses which Mr.. Willard has met with here
will undoubtedly prove favorable to Friday
afternoons entertainment
Following this event will come Miss
Alice Raymond, the eminent cornet virtu-
oso. The memory of her triumph at the
Exposition recently is still lingering in the
minds of many of the local music-loving
public and it is hardly likely that she will
fail to be a very strong card in herself
Another great event of the programme
will be the appearance of Charles Froh-
mans comedians in the distinguished
comedy success, ''Gloriana No more
brilliant company of artists is on the road
to-day. This fact should insure success for
the Press Club benefit. Several members
of Sam Devere's own company will appear
with all their original individual special
ties. MI. James Reilly and his first-class
company will appear in the first act of "a
German Soldier" Other attractions too
numerous to mention have also volunteered
their services for the occasion.
The performance will begin at o'clock
sharp and will extend without wait of any
sort until about $50 p NJ The musical
programme will be furnished by the COM
bined orchestras of the various theatera

New York Daily Investigator.)

NNcW tOTk buiiy luNebtlButOT')
Good judges say that one of the next
localities to achieve distinction by
jumping from a substantial town to a
thriving metropolis in few years will
be the city of Superior, Wisconsin, and
this, too, without the effort and strug-
gle through which interior towns have
passed while effecting the same result.
Until year or two ago the average
man did not stop to think that Supe-
rior as a monopolist of the water and
rail termini att one end Of the lakes is
in the same position as Buffalo is at
the other end. Figures are uninter-
esting unless given briefly, but com
PARSONS are always important. This
little Superior, credited by its last CEN
sus with only $4,000 people, handled
more coal last year than did Chicago;
of grain, it shipped nineteen million
bushels of flour, sixteen hundred
thousand barrels, of wool, four million
pounds, of merchandise, to the value of
thirteen million dollars OF all lake
cities this business was second only to
Chicago in magnitude. There is an
economical reason for this condition of
things. 1t is that the rail rate on
freight sent west Of Lake Michigan is
one cent per ton per mile, while the
water rate is one-tenth Of one cent
per ton per mile. This position at the
extreme western end of Lake Superior
is what gives the city of Superior its
prestige, and is making it grow faster
than Chicago ever did. Besides one
hundred and one smaller industrial
concerns, Superior has located twenty
eight large manufacturing enterprises
in the past eighteen months, including
the American Steel Barge Company,
the builders of the famous "Whale-
back" vessel, which is revolutionizing
the lake and ocean freight-carrying
trade. The twenty-eight institutions
above mentioned include iron and
steel plants, -four mills, stove factories,
wagon factories, pump makers, ship
builders and saw and single mills.
The most conservative business men in
the Northwest believe that Superior
will grow faster in the next ten years
than any other city in that prosperous
section of the country, and many of
them claim that Chicago, st. Paul,
Minneapolis and Milwaukee have never
seen the rapid growth that will come
to the head of the great chain of lakes
