no use discussing the fact that Super
ior and Duluth are going to be great
commercial cities, both occupy unique
and strategic positions. 1t is where
water transportation stops and rail
transportation begins, therefore all
cargoes have to be unloaded and re-
loaded. The government is spending
millions of dollars in Superior's har-
Dor. The railroads centering there
will spend about nine million dollars
during the year on Improvements.
The largest Touring mill in the world

The water power of the st. Louis
river. between Superior and Duluth is
to be utilized, and factories from all

The'relief of Ladysmith which was
announced yesterday, scores another
victory for the British arms. The city
was in hard shape. the garrison being
reduced to starvation rations. For 118
days the plucky garrison had withstood
the fierce onslaughts of the Beers, but
when relieved were reduced to point
where they could offer but little resist
ance. AS soon as the relief was effected,
the Beers in the surrounding country
beat hasty retreat, they having re-
moved the most or all of their heavy
guns some days ago. and sent them
safely to the rear. where they will be
used in fortifying some interior point
where they wish to make stand
against the advance of the British. It
is probable that this retirement of the
Beers around Ladysmith, will lead to
the concentration of a large force
against Lords Roberts and Kitchener
which will result in heavy battle near
Blomfontein, but it is probable the
latter have been anticipating this and
are prepared for it. 1t does not appear
hat the retiring Beers from around
Ladysmith were followed up by any of
Buffers command, in fact it does not
ppear that Butler was in a position to
ollow them at once, and so attract any
Of their fleeing forces from the west.
