Stuckey Captured.

Charles II. Stuckey, Duluth's alb
sconding bank cashier was captured
Wednesday morning at the farm house
of Peter Pierson near the little town OF
Perley in this state. Mrs John Nathan
sent in the information which led to his
arrest. 1t seems her daughter had
met man at a country dance who
answered the description of Stuckev
published in the papers, and had been
so impressed with the appearance OF
the man that she related the circum-
stance to her mother who at once mott
fed the police department at Duluth
and Detective Benson was sent out to
investigate the matter. Stuckey sur
rendered quietly. and remarked that
he was glad he was caught as he was
tired OF living the life of fugitive from
justice. Only $500 was found on his
person and it is supposed that he has
secreted the remainder of the Sl1 600
which it is claimed he got away with.
He refuses to talk about the matter.

SectiOnaliSrn III the City.

The proposed Court House repairs
excited the people very much as it is
provided by law that after certain
amount of money has been expended
on the Court House it cannot be moved
for five years. There is strong feeling
of rivalry between the East and West
End about the County seat. This is to
I've deplored the city should not trit-
ter away its opportunities in a petty
quarrel over what any one part of the
town may have.
How much buster, better and more
profitable it would be for a United SUI
perior in all the strength of it's resour-
SEES, and combined weight of Its intel
lIgence, and manhood TO work for the
location and up-building of those insti-
tutlons which are inseparabe from the
growth of great city than for Superior
10 present to the world pitiable show
of a selfish squabble of one part of town
trying to tear down some institution in
some other part of the city.
We say that a frank, willing, manly
pulling together of our citizens will
breed public spirit that will bring
prosperity and honor to Superior, but
petty, jealous, quarrelsome spirit
among leading men will bring on us the
merIted contempt of all common sense
people. No question but the Court
House must some day be moved from
its present location, but as the East End
always had it, why not let they keep
il? AS the West End has the Superior
Court and the Normal School, let them
be magnanimous. At present it is very
detrimental to have this quarrel come
up. The best policy would be to post
pone improvements and cultivate an
honored understanding between sec
tons before the matter is again brought
up.-South Superior sun.

ceedingly brainv head, recently made

at Buffalo:
THE commercial centers of the world

health or views. Many of them have
been founded in the swamps. where it
has taken a century of effort to allevi-
ate their material and miasmatic con-
ditions. Their foundation and their fu-
ture have been the solution of the prob.
lens of transportation. FOR after all.

centtating powers ~ its wealth and ac-
tivities Is transportation. 1t is along

Superior is the toll gate of the great
Northwestern highways of commerce.
The traffic of the east and the west
must pass that gate and pay toll as il

The lives of many persons are an al
