The Superior times. [volume] (Superior, Wis.) 1870-1912, 1897-03-27

Mr.. Swan J. Johnson, Manager Of
the Mark Paine Lumber yard is a lead
ing candidate for the Republican nom
ination for alderman to relieve Attor-
ney Ross. who has made a very ac-
ceptable representative, and would like
very much TO receive the verdict "well
DONE" by being returned to the council.
We understand that d. r. Long is
likely to be the choice of the second
ward Republicans for alderman. Mr..
Long would make an excellent repre-
sentative, and the contest will be close
between Mr.. Bertrand who wishes to
succeed himself and who will probably
receive the Democratic nomination and
Mr.. Long.
L. Hansen, florist, of st. Paul and
Minneapolis, has leased for a period of
ten years, eighty acres of the HAYES

gardening for local markets. He pro-
poses to build three large greenhouses
in which he Will raise vegetables and
flowers during the entire year. Mr..
Nansen will invest about $4,000 in the
enterprise.
MFR Grafton Mason recently pur-
chased neat looking house in South
Superior, and had it moved IN here and
has located it on Seventh street, and
will nave 1t repaired and put in good

into it. An excellent idea. Why don't
someone else do the same thing. The
houses are we'll built and can be bought
for much less than they can possibly be
built.

The inter-Normal oratorical con.
test which came off at Oshkosh last
week. and in which Mr.. L. \. Snow
represented Superior's Normal, is sale
to have been one of the best contest:
ever given IN the state. Mr.. Snow was
awarded third place, but had the aud
fence had the power OF deciding there
is little doubt but what he would have
taken the first place. With this senti
