The Largest Vote Ever Polled
in Brockway Township.
r. 8. CAMPBELL HAS A MAJORITY OF
2,35e OVER j. c. LEVENGOOD FOR
COUNTY COMMISSIONER OF
SCHOOLS.

The election last Monday in Brock
way township was very interesting and
exciting. Two tickets were in the
field-Republican and Union. Both
tickets were headed by men who are
held high in the esteem of everybody
and it was hot race to win from start
to finish. On account of personal
fight among republicans the head of
the ticket was defeated. The state
and county tickets demonstrated the
fact that Brockway township has a
republican majority.
We give below detailed statement
of the vote cast in this township, also
list of the officers elected in the diff
ferent townships and cities of the
county, the board of supervisors for
1897, and other items of interest:

James O'NeaI Explains the Cause of
Lumber Activity.

James O'Neal, of the we'll known log
ging firm of Saltwater, was in the city
yesterday, and in discussing the lum-
bering industry remarked that there
would undoubtedly be a heavy log cut
the coming winter; all the loggers are
making preparations for it.
There is considerable activity in the
business now and prospects are good
for continuance of it," said Mr..
O'Neal. II suppose some of our Re
publican friends will attribute it to
the 50 duty en"Canadian lumber, but in
my opinion that has very little to do
with it. If man cannot pay $40 q
thousand for lumber he cannot pay $12
for it; the secret of the whole matter
is that the farmers, who are the largest
users of lumber, are getting in a con.
dition to use it, in improving their
homes and erecting new buildings If
the good prices for farm products are
maintained, for a couple of years, it
would make very little difference how
much lumber Canada had to sell u.s.
1.-The wages of the men are higher
than they have been for some years,
about SIS per month higher than they
were a year ago. Last summer there
was very littleS work for men at any
price, but now there is not an idle man
in Saltwater, at least none who want
work. Our firm is hiring all the men
who come along. We are extending

TO GET COAL CHEAPER.
Twin City Merchants Reported to
Re Planning

telegram from West Superior says: ga
syndicate of Minneapolis and st. Paul par
ties have conceived plan for supplying those
cities and Mississippi river points with coal
at a cheaper rate than now in vogue and
to carry out their scheme have written to
the American Steel Barge company asking
for prices on a fleet of whaleback barges
suitable for the Mississippi river traffic The
proposition to place whalebacks on the Mis-
slsslppl river is not new one, but this is
ness have taken up the matter.
The scheme is to procure coal from the
illinois fields or even from Pennsylvania
tributing points. Their plan is to save over
the present transportation charges and they
have apparently made up their minds that
the whaleback style of carrier is the most
economical. The stage of water in the rivers
to be navigated varies from seven to nine
feet, and the syndicate asks for approximate
hgures on barges to carry from 200 to 800
tons OF coal: They. say it would take from
90 to 80 such vessels"
