THE Sheboygan papers. though mild in

/ IRE Sheboygan papers, though mlld IL
their structures are not pleased with what
appeared ID last weeks Pilot regarding
the interference of shat city with efforts
this city Is making 10 improve her CON-
merclal facilities. The fact that these
papers have refrained from slurring COM
ments, something that would have been
promptly indulged in by some state pa
pers few years ago, under the plea OF
proyocation- shows to what extent the
amenities have progressed.
There is no occasion now for discussing
what Manitowoc desired the legislature
to do, further than stating that the value
Of any action by the legislature would be
made wholly worthless If the claims OF
more than one city were pressed. II
Sheboygan bai taken the initiative 1T
would have been small potatoes for
Manitowoc to porody its action when by
so dong it would prevent good from
coming to either. The conditions being
reversed the same epithau is applicable
to SheboYgan. But this is matter which
can not be remedled by argument and Is
referred to simply as a comment upon
lack of propriety.
SO far as the Two Rivers crew Is con-
cerned: They certainly did good work
and deserve aecognition. The Pilot would
just as gladly applaud an act of herolsm
II done by Sheboygan people as if done
by those of Manitowoc. Admiration of
heroism is not hedged IN by territorial
limitations and its recognition should
not be- The Two Rivers crew was snc-
cessful and, naturally, admiration goes
out to those who have had the glory of
If the effort of the She
boygan crew was as daring, even though
they failed, let honor be done them as
well. Prima facle, the glory rests with
the Two Rivers crew and they should not
be denied recognition because others
who may be entitled to 1t have failed TO
receive their due. When brave men are
honored other broye men rejoice. Jeal-
ousy is not a mark of great mind.

Mr.. and Mrs. Sniffen we're of Quaker
descent, and throughout their long lives

THERE was considerable railroad ex-
element in the city last eek. The Chi
cago & Northwestern had decided to put
IN slip on the lake front. The Manito-
voc Coal & Dock Co. was to be furnished
facilities for transactIng It's business
there. Its present quarters are too
limited for The business it purposes doing.
Coal docks were to be put In having
capacity to handle 100000 tons of coal.
The plan was to build breakwater
little outside the shore line and to use
the excavations to extend the beach line
eastward, thus helping nature in enlarg
ing territory. The slip was to be 450 feet
long and 100 feet wide, so that 1t could
accommodate two boats one for the Coal
company and the other for ordinary
freight.
The railway company had practically
lost the right to run it's trains on Quay
and Franklin streets. The franchise was
originally given on the condition that
daily line Of steamers be run across the
lake. After the first year there was no
regularity and for months no boat was
run. This failure was an abrogation OF
the franchise. Besides the franchise was
given to the Milwaukee, Lake Shore Il
Western. There was no clause in the
ordinance granting the privilege to toe
company's assigns or successors. This,
The Chicago & Northwestern thought lm
paired there rights to such an extent that
it d1d not feel justified in making any ex-
tensive improvements unless the rights
which made the property on the lake
front accessible were guaranteed. Con-
firmatIon Of privileges now enjoyed on
sutferance was asked.
The meeting of the Advancement sso-
citation held on Saturday night made
clear the fact that a perpetual right of
way on Quay and Franklin streets would
not be granted. The sense of the meeting
as shown by resolutions adopted was
that a right of way for five years would
be granted, the company in that time to
construct it's belt line, after which the
track on Quay and Franklin streets WAS
to be used for cars to run one way only.
The opposition became more pronounced
during Sunday and on Monday the chi
cago & Northwestern withdrew its propo
sition. Notice of this was given the city
council on Monday evening by Agent
! Huchthausen.

Tom" Sullivan of The Chicago Tribune
having heard that Captain Tim Kelley
had been looking over old files of The
Pilot II the Historical rooms at Madison
when Tom" was typo and Tim" the
devil, writes his old chum that he mustn't
presume that he was on terms of equality
with his boss years and years ago..
Tom insists that he was boss these times
and that Tim was simply an "ornery"
fellow In the office, and he wants the dis
function recognized. The reputation of
having been the devil is what Tim plumes
himself particularly upon and is willing
to rest his reputation on this as against
Toms being boss"

JoRN Franz JR., died on Friday of last
week. Although he had been i'll for some
time with inhammatory rheumatism,
there was no fear of Il fatal termination.
The day before his death he had entire re-
lief from pain and both he and his friends
regarded this as an indication of the be-
ginning of permanent recovery. The dis
ease took a turn for the worse during the
night and soon ended in his death.
He was born in Two Rivers in 1861
and soon after came to this city with his
parents Here he was educated and went
into business with his father. He was
married TO Mary Zeman in 1885 and leaves
a widow and four children
For some time he was actively connect
cd with the business of John Franz Il Son
as the junior member. He developed
considerable business tact and shrewd
knowledge of men. He gave SPECIAL at
tention to the insurance business and
showed excellent judgment IN Its man
agement. He grew in manlIness as he
grew to maturity and in business deal
ings his word was regarded as absolute.
He was generous and public spirited.
Increased responsibility drew out the ex-
ercise of native powers and always was
a spur to development. He was IN every
respect a good citizen, one who had ca
pacity for growth, to whom added years
made the ideals Of life higher.

A queer condition prevails here as to
the shipment of hay. The warehouses
are filled almost to bursting aud there is
great demand for hay in Michigan, but
the boats refuse to take it, except as they
receive special orders from the freight
agent and then only in small quantities.
Sam Hall has 500 tons of nay which he
would dispose Of at a good profit if he
could only move it. John Hall says that
more hay has been purchased here this
season than for any preceding season
Notwithstanding the short crop. Farmers
have used cut feed and sold their hay as
that was about the only thing which
brought a good price.

The Washington correspondent of The
Sentinel furnishes news or the report of
the engineers regarding the Manitowoc
barber. The report Is made by Captain
linn of Milwaukee. His report is to the
effect that the work contemplated will
cost S44 40 This means the extension
of south pier 500 feet making an addition
of cribs. at cost of $4,000. dredging
IS 900 cubic Yards at cost of s., 400 and
cont ngent expenses of S4,O40.
The report does better than giving an
estimate o.. the cost Of the work which
was asked to be done and suggests the
ad disability of extending the piers to the
22-toot contour so as to allow vessels to
enter the harbor in safety during a heavy
blow. / his would require the extension
Of both piers about 240 feet at cost of
S36,960 which would require total ap.
preparation of SSl 900, making the total
amount expended by the government for
the Manitowoc harbor S3l4,000. The re-
port is accompanied by maps and draw
ings of the harbor as 1t is at present and
as 1t will appear after the work is COM
pleted.
The Sentinel correspondent says that
no other harbor Improvement has at
/ tracted as much attention as that of
Manitowoc and that the committee sent
from here made very favorable i'm
/ preston upon the river and harbor COM
mlttee. Prospects are bright for good
appropriation.
