Mr.. John +. Nelligan, OF Oconto, was
in the city today and stated to a North
Star reporter that the Fence River and
Michigamme drives are practically com
pletcd. Mr.. Nelligan said that tomor-
row the drives viii be out and no mis-
take.
The Fence River Logging company has
driven both the Fence and the Michi-
CANINE. The Fence empties into the
Michlgamme, and the latter into the
main river near Florence. The Fence
River Logging company brought down
53,000.000 feet Of logs down TO the
mouth of the Michigammo and into the
Menominee river four miles north Of
Florence. About 80, 10000, 900 feet Of
logs were banked on the Fence and
branches and the rest put into the Michi-
CANINE.
These two drives have been remark
able Tor their success, for hardly stick
ci timber has been left in either stream
by the driving crews. Mr.. Michigan
states that although it was quite dry up
north OF late the work went along well
and was much more satisfactory than
last years drives when u few logs were
left in the streams.-Marinette Star.

Bob should environ himself with all

ALL SPITE AMI ENVY.

Some men are desperate enough TO
commit suicide-their chagrin and
wrath know no bounds-all because
Mr.. Brownlow has ''landed with both
feet squarely OF the home base"
Mr.. Brownlow, by virture of the ia
vor of the Republican party in this
district, is a candidate for Congress.
This honorable and exalted trust he
wanted, sought after and worked for
like a Trojan hero against the most
fearful and formidable odds any man
ever encountered.
He is, also, a delegate to the st.
Louis convention. This was an honor
he did not covet and the acceptance of
which he tried to avoid. 1t was thrust
upon him against his earnest protests
and persistent appeals to select some
other man.
The leading Republicans of the coun-
try, approaching the momentous in
terests that depend upon the issue of
the national contest, and knowing the
undertaking loyalty of Mr.. Brownlow g.
Republicanism, his sagacity and value
as a leader, has great aptitude for the
work to be performed, and his willing.
ness at all times to spend and be spent
in the party's cause, have signifed in
unmistakeable terms their earnest de.
sire that he be made the Tennessee
member of the National Committee.
These honors come so thick and fast
and all save one SO unexpected and un.
desired as not only to work the little
clique of Mr., Brownlow' malignant
foes into a ferment of passion but to
excite their CONSERVATION to the high
est pitch. They imagine that he has
an elaborate and far reaching system
of dictatorial and repressive bossism in
perfect working trim, ready at the
proper time to commence its oppressive
and discriminating operations, and
none need apply who have not bowed
with the most cheerful and unprotest-
ing obeisance to the lordly beneficiary
of the new deal" in the politics of this
district.
We can assure these distinguished
gentlemen that there is no good ground
for their ire, fears and detection. Mr..
Brownlow has none of the ''vile stuff
in his being that enters SO largely into
their own composition. He is more
than ordinarily free from ignoble NAL
ice and the dishonoring spirit of petty
revenge. He will not treat them as
they have always treated him and
would do so again had they the
power and the influence. He will exc
cute all the trusts placed in his hands
on the broad lines of an unselfsh par.
tisan and as solely required by the
growth and success of his party.
And finally to tell the exact and
simple truth, all their melancholy, ap-
%prehensions of evil and peculiarly new
interest in the party's welfare are the
ready suggestions of baflled spite and
envy

THE rapid disappearance of all fac.
tional bitterness and animosity from
the ranks of the Republican party in
this Congressional District is worthy
of special notice and commentator.
There may be a few ~soreheads grum-
bling around the wrecks of the dreams
and hopes that did not materialize, but
their power and influence amount to
nil. The masses are satisfied and
united. With them the choice of the
people il the fat that must be obeyed.
They have no use mol respect for, nor
confidence in, any man who sets his
opinions and judgment against the
aggregated wisdom of the party. They
are party patriots and want and will
work for an all round victory over the
enemy. They care but little for indi.
viduals. 1t is the principles of the
party that they want to see in the
ascendant. And hence they can not
listen with any degree of patience and
federation to the mournful winnings
of the disappointed pot hunter. $50

world

HERE is an argument that can't be
turned down. According to her State
census for 1895, Iowa has a population
Of 2,05S, 069, out of this number, the
number over 10 years of age who can
not read or write is II, l02, or but one
half one per cent. With such a diffu.
sion of general intelligence, of course
Iowa is Republican with a majority
away up in the thousands. In the re-
liable Democratic States there are
single counties that have more litter
acy than the whole of Iowa. Such a
fact is not so astounding as it is sig
nifcant. Democracy has as little to
do with the schoolmaster as possible.

FROM HAMBLEN COUNTY.

RUssELLvILLE, Tenn, June 3, 1885,
1t has been u good many years since
the Republicans of Tennessee have
entered such active contests against
one another for nomination for office,
and the fact that they are doing SO
this year is an indication of the conf
dence of the success of the party at the
polls in November. There are men
contesting for nominations today who
have been content in the past to be
known as Republican workers inter
ested only in the perpetuation of Re
publican principles in Tennessee and
the success of the party in national
elections. These men. conservative,
level headed politicians, are accepting
the present as the proper time to claim
their rewards. They feel that Tennessee
is going to drop into the Republican
column and they are not mistaken. 1t
is generally conceded that Hon. II.
Clay Evans will be our candidate for
Governor. 1t is evident that he can
poll the largest vote possible, and
when elected will honor both himself
and his party; he would acquit himself
with ability and dignity. Give us
Evans and we will go into the cam
paign conquering and to conquer,
Hon. w, p. Brownlow is growing in
prominence and popularity not only
in this district but in the State at large
any party should be proud to possess
such a candidate, honest and noble,
who is not a Republican by birth OIL
training but a Republican because he
loves the principles of the party. The
First District is fortunate in possessing
such a candidate. The manneri in which
he managed that memorable triangu
lar campaign is evidence of his abilit,
as a campaign worker. Mr.. Brownlow
will make a thorough canvass of hiE
distric this fall and will be used else
where in the State to strengthen tht
ticket. His friends will admit of NJ
possibility of his defeat, and firmly
believe that he will carry the distric
by a larger majority than any one eve
has. He has on every occasion showr
himself equal to the emergency, anC
when he takes his seat in Congress HI
will rank among the strongest men o
that bony Of representative citizens o
the nation. A REPUBLICAN.
