JOHN GOSS.
Biographical Sketch of a Prom.

Biographical Sketch Of a Prom
inent Rum River Lum-
herman.
John Goss was born in New
Brunswick and came to Minnesota
thirty-eight years ago, at the age
of 81. When he first came to
Anoka it was a town of only a few
hundred inhabitants, a hotel and
two or three stores being the only
places of business, besides two
small saw mills. One of the
stores was owned by H. L. Tick
nor and the stock consisted of dry
goods and general merchandise.
A saw mill was situated on the
site now occupied by the great
Lincoln Touring mill and the
machinery consisted of one rotary
saw and one known as the ''up-
midtown" saw, besides a. lath and
single machine. The other mill
was a small affair located at the
mouth of the river.
The Princeton union. [volume] (Princeton, Minn.) 1876-1976, 1894-05-10

Mr.. Goss removed to Iowa in a
few years after his arrival here and
remained absent for twelve years,
but was interested in the Rum
river pineries during all that time.
He resided at Leroy eight years.
He was married at the age of 81
and has seven children living
Farnham Goss of Leroy, Mrs.
William Giddings, Judson Goss,
Mrs. Irving Davis, Mrs. James
Berry and an unmarried daughter
and son, Lizzie and John, all of
whom reside here.
He is member of the Baptist
church, having united with that
society at the age of Is. He is at
present a trustee of the society in
this city. He relates some inter-
esting stories in this connection
concerning the early history of the
church in Anoka. When he came
here services were held in a little
red school house situated near
where the city hall now stands,
the pastor being Elder Palmer.
The reverend gentleman had a
somewhat arduous task, among
his duties being a trip to Oak
Grove once in three weeks, where
services were held. The trip was
made on foot, a distance Of twelve
miles, and it is stated that his en-
tire reward for one years work
was spoiled ham. When the So
ciety grew larger a school house on
the West side did service as meet
ing place until the present church
was erected.
Mr.. Goss has been one of the
most successful business men of
this city. Starting with prac-
t1cally not a cent in the world, he
is to-day worth thousands of dol
lars and is a striking example of a
shrewd, honest, Woodworking man.
For many years his pay roll has
amounted to from $50, 600 to $780,.
900 per- year, and the men have
always been paid in cash. Last
year he employed eighty men,
nearly all being residents Of
, Anoka.
He has never been a politician
and now holds his first public Of
fee, being alderman from the Firs1
ward. He solicited no votes anc
! accepted the Office from purely
[ patriotic motives, being willing K
} do his share toward the manage
ment of the city with which he ha'
been so prominently identified fo7
years. He has shown the same
sagacity'i in his public trust as il
his private affairs and has the hes
interests of his city always a
heart. -A11okn Herald.

Mr.. Goss was born and bred a
lumberman, his father being log
ging contractor before him. His
first lesson in the woods was at the
age of Is when he drove four oxen
in the east. His first winter in
this section was spent in the
pineries as has been each one since,
with one exception. The first
summer he was here he worked
with Nathan Curial who still re-
sides here. The two men labored
in the saw mill making lath and
receiving the princely stipend of
ST. SO per day and taking their pay
in lumber.
Besides the lumber business Mr..
Goss owned a freight route be-
tween here and St. Paul. Mime
apolis at that time was unknown,
and St. Anthony had but one or
two stores. The entire supplies
of the city were hauled from the
capital by one team, making two
trips per week.
St. Francis boosted of saw mill
and a hotel and Princeton was a
small village. Itasca was larger
than Anoka with every prospect
of becoming a great city.
Mr.. Goss, soon after his arrival
here built house on the west side
of the river, this side of what is
now known as Pleasant street. TIC
give an idea of the size of the city
at the time of the Indian outbreak
the following incident is related.
News was received here that the
savages were crossing the river al
Dayton and mounted skirmishers
were dispatched to reconnoiter,
and in the mean time a line oil
guards was placed along the
anticipated point of attack. The
house of Mr.. Goss was considered
SO far out Of the city that it was
not protected by the guards.

ever sent abroad as a representa-
tive. While not desiring to be in
terviewed, we take the liberty of
quoting a few Of his remarks. Mr..

silver wipes out the debtor class of
this county. AS an illustration he
said it is some like a farmer who
has a granary filled with wheat
setting fire to and destroying his
oat and hay crop. This country
has not gold enough to supply our

something else. That being the
case what is better than silver,
which as far back as we have any
record has always been used for
money. The great mistake was
made in 1873. Last year the
newspapers and the banks clamored
for the repeal of the purchasing
clause of Sherman act. They so
dinned it into the ears of the peo-
pie that it would prove remedy
for the existing condition of things
that it was repealed. But did it
work as they foreshadowed. No,
it practically accomplished nothing.
This talk is that of a citizen who
desires the best interests of his
country to be advanced, and not as
a politician WSa"ae6ogo Press

And often looking very blue? 49,.

And often call it extra fun
To steal a train and take a run?

Had congress not been On the steal,
Had silver been left in the field,
There would be no Commonwealers.

And robs the West of all its pef, ..-
And legislates us plum to death,
Hence the Commonweaers.
Oh congress give US back the dimes
And we will open up our mines,
And put our men to work on time
And dissolve the Commonwealers.
Oh, Grover, Grover, please do yield,
For there's an army in the field
Who are marching on their doom to seal

They ask for work, give not a stone,
Perhaps the past can be atoned,
Oh be not slow to hear the moan

And loyal friends you'll make, by scads,

Where the Badge is Worn.

Strange as it may appear, there
are probably more people wearing
the Democratic badge to-day then
there were at the time of the last
national election. The badge,
however, has undergone some
slight alterations. It is no longer
worn upon the coat lapel, but may
be found where the wearer is in
hopes the coat tails will cover it.
1t is not made of silk or satin rib
bon either, but of such extra
pantaloon material as chance to be
available. The pride, too, which
characterized the wearer after the
eighth of November, 1892, has ex-
perienced some diminution, and is
not now, as it was then, in proper
ton to the gaudiness Of the ribbon,
but is rather in proportion to the
skill and neatness which the house.
wife has displayed with her
needle and thread. The wearing
of it, also, has ceased to be op-
tional, and is at present compul-
sorry. It will not be optional
again until 1896, at which time it
is safe to assume that the badge
will be discarded. -Chac1roao (Neb.)

Removing the Indians.

W. M. Campbell, chairman of
the Chippewa Indian commission,
says the outlook for the removal
of a large number of the members.
of the scattering bands. Of Chippe-
was to the White Earth reserva-
ton during, the. summer is very.
encouraging. Week before last.
he removed 20 Mile Laos to this
reservation, and now the men in
the employ of the commission are
engaged in removing 30 families
of the Winnibigoshish band to
White Earth. On account of the
condition of the roads it will be no
easy task to effect the removal of
this party. It will be necessary to
make considerable portion of the
journey in canoes.
"The commission said Mr..
Campbell, els greatly hampered
by the lack of lumber to build
houses for the Indians. There
was some trouble over the bonds
of the contractor who was to saw
the lumber, and on account Of the
red tape which is tangled up in all
government business he is unable
to do anything. We hope this
difficulty will be overcome soon,
as it will greatly facilitate the re-.
moval of the Indians to have ma
terials at hand to build their houses
before they are taken to the reser-.
vation. -Bz0laaezd Tribune. -
