States Government proposes to make
a new State, to be called Superior, out
of the upper peninsula of the State of
Michigan. Grant Eldredge writes of
the proposed new State as follows:
For many years, in fact, almost since
it's admission to the Union in 1887,
Michigan has been divided by Lake
Michigan. If you will look on the map
you will see that Michigan is cut in
two a little more than midway to the
north. The upper part of the peninsula
above the lake is known in the State
as the Upper Peninsula. The lower
part is the Lower Peninsula.
Of course, Michigan has been under
one Governor. but for very long time
the people of the Upper Peninsula
have felt that they did not receive the
same attention and advantages as the
people on the north, Lake Huron and
Lake Superior of the Lower Peninsu-
Ia Besides that, they claimed that they
were further north, and subject to diff
ferent climatic laws and that. there
fore, they should not be treated the
same as the lower Michigan people
To settle the dispute, there have
been negotiations pending for some
time to make this peninsula into a
different State, and in order to give it
proper size, to cut slice off Wiscon-
sin, this slice to be added to the pen
insula.
Now, to determine just what the
new State will be, to draw line from
Green Bay westward and little down
ward, to the Mississippi river and
then take all that lies above it as far
as Lake Superior, and you will have
the new State Of Superior as correctly
as can be drawn now.
Of all the States in the Union, this
State stands about the best chance of
making its mark. 1t has Lake Superior
and Michigan on the east, on the south
Wisconsin and Lake Michigan, and on
the west Minnesota, the Mississippi
river and little of Lake Superior
Besides this magnificent location, the
State of Superior starts in with pop
ulation Of nearly one million people.
Its size will about correspond to that
of Kentucky, which it also resembles
in shape. 1t is well watered by many
small rivers and it contains a sea coast
which is second to no other State
Besides this, Superior has an mex
haustible mining supply. It contains
iron and copper enough, were its out
put fully worked, to supply the whole
world, and its building stone is re-
markable all across the country. Its
mining facilities make it a Klondike
in copper
Its cities, though not as large as
those of the Lower Peninsula, are very

f1ourishing. and West Superior, which
will be he metropolis OF the new State,
is considered finer in its possibilities
than any other city of the Central
United States.
have an upper peninsula and the man
ner in which it was divided is very
interesting. Michigan was the thir-
teenth State admitted into the Union
and came in by act of Congress in jan
uary, 1897. 1t extended further south
than it now does and westward TO the
Missouri river, but owing to some po-
litical deal on its admission, part of
its southern border was cut Off and
given to Ohio. A strip had also been
given TO Indiana few years before.
After Michigan became fully settled as
a State the Governor of Michigan made
a great fuss about these slices that had
been cut off and so, to quiet him, what
is now known as the Upper Peninsula
was granted to him. This made State
that was separated by great body of
water, but notwithstanding this OBJ
stacle Michigan has always ruled both
it's upper and lower peninsulas as we'll.
Another reason for making a new
State out of the peninsula is that Mich
igan is State of great climatic diff
ference. The climate of the southern
portion is warm, but that of the north
ern is rigorous Take Detroit, which
has mean annual temperature of 4S
degrees, and that of Sault Ste Marie,
which is 40 degrees. This is a differ
ence of s degrees between the differ
ent parts of the State. Along the north
ern part there is a great deal of apple
raising, but in the peninsula there are
vineyards, and, of course, the same
of these
