In 1867 he came to Minnesota
in search of health, and in the
following year engaged in the
lumber business in Saltwater.
He entered politics as a mem Der
Of the state senate in 1870, serv-
ing until 1883, when he succeed
ed William Window as United
States Senator. While a mem
Der of the United States senate
he was chairman of the railway
committee and a member of the
Indian and pension committees.
While not an orator, he was a
working and effective mem
Der of the Minnesota delegation.
He was especially active in secur-
ing the betterments to lake navi-
cation entailed by the improv-
ments at Sault Ste. Marie, the
improvements on the Mississippi
and other rivers.
In the councils Of the repu bill
can party Mr.. Sabin always took
a prominent part. Before his
election as United States senator
he was Minnesota's member of
the national committee, and on
the death of Governor Jewell, in
December, 1883, became chair
man and presided over the con-
yention in Chicago in 1884 which
nominated James G. Blaine for
the presidency Since his re-
tiremdnt from politics he has
been actively engaged in bust
ness, especially in the lines of
lumber and iron.

Mr.. Goedeke's Letters.

A few days ago VIM. Goedeke, of
the SO Cent store placed on the tele.
phone post in front of his store a
small box which bore the label
Santa Claus u. IS. Mail Box. I"
The box was simply exhibited for
sale, aud imagine Mr.. Goedeke's sur
prise on looking into it after it had
been on display for two or three
days to find six or eight letters
addressed to Santa Claus, and bear
ing the signatures of the little peo-
pie of Washburn, telling ''dear old
Santa just vsAaf they wanted for
Christmas. One little girl only
wanted a doll. Another was not
quite so modest, and enumerated a
dozen very nice presents, all OF
which she expected. The wants OF
these little ones were numerou
enough, and Mr.. Goedeke in his kind
heartedness will likelp supply them
all.

G. E. Vandercook, special repre-
sentative OF the Milwaukee Sentinel,
was in the city Saturday. Mr..
Vandercook has been writing a series
of very interesting articles on. the
subject OF grain inspection and the
Minnesota plan of inspecting in
Wisconsin elevators. The subject
is one that should have the attention
of our Legislature at the coming SEES
sion. Recently MIR. Vandercook
visited Bayfield, and vicinity and
furnished for his paper very COM
plete and interesting article on the
children and their homes, that were
sent here from New York last sum-
mer. Mr.. Vandercook found that
eight Of the children were in the
homes on the RedcHffe reservation,
and that six OF them were il the
hands OF Indian families While he
speaks of the indians who have the
children as the very best kind of
natives, still he very correctly says:
"While the rules Of conventional
ity are somewhat disturbed to see a
blue-eyed, flaxen-haired, beautiful
baby girl nesting in the lap of a
swarthy, dark skinned Indian woman,
prattling away in the tongue of the
Chippewas, her kindly treatment
and enjoyment Of the child leads one
to conclude that motherly instincts
and mother]y love aad affection are
always alike, wherever found, what
ever the condition, race or color. A
number have already written to the
Eastern institution to send on papers
of final adoption, so that their claims
to the children will not be subject to
to dispute. .
The children are all in good hands
and aside from those with the
Indians, have splendid homes among
white families

The Future of Northern WISCONSIN.

The Future of Northern Wisconsin.
In answer to the question: els
the present farm land movement in
to Northern Wisconsin of a permau
ent character likely to continued"
A prominent real estate dealer, who,
from years of persona observation
and experience in Northern Wiscou-
sin, is probably as good a prophit as
there is under the sun, gives the Bee
in a personal interview, the follow
ing interesting statement.
Certainly it is permanent, and it
is bound to continue. Just look at
the facts: The population of the
United States is increasing at the
rate of four thousand daily. We are
growing at the rate of one million
five hundred thousand a year. We
have doubled in every 80 or 40 years
Of history. Inside of so years we
will have one hundred and fifty
million. Where are they going2
Are we sending them away? Are
they emigrating to other lands?
No, we are taking care of them at
home. Where is this extra million
and half year going? Where
else but into the new lands north and
west, and into Nor thern Wisconsin
above all? Where else are cheap
lands, fertile soil, healthful climate,
transportation facilities to good
markets, and conditions more favor
able to human energy and enterprise
so abundant and ready to hand as
right here?
SIS there anything of boom
character about such a condition as
this? Not a bit It is not only
normal and natural, it is necessary,
it is compelled What else can this
population do, where else can they
90? The cities cannot absorb the
fifty million increase of the next
thirty years. The bulk of the popu-
lation must be engaged in produc-
tive occupations. They must be at
work providing that great and funda-
mental necessity of mankind every
where-food for subsistence. The
great absorbing industry, the most
important from a practical material
standpoint is the productio of food,
and food comes from the soil. The
cities flourish and prosper and our
civilization is enduring only when the

brow to produce food on one hand,
and the raw materials for manufac-
ture, trade and transportation, or
the other. The bulk of the fifty
million human increase must go to
the soil, and they pour into the north
and west naturally as water flows
down hill. This is as normal and
natural as the fact that water seeks
q level.
Population has been pouring re-
Gently into Northern Wisconsin
and Minnesota into the Dakotas, at
a rate that has excited national
comment. But it is owing simply
to the most natural causes. Here is
a vast fertile empire at prices q

which prevail in thickly settled
communities. The people are simply

A SUGGESTION.

Owing to the failure in the corn
crop last year, hundreds of negro
left Lafayette county
last winter for the. Delta. Supply
were forced to close
out families they had furnished
for years, and an exodus of labor
ers, and thousands of acres of I'm.
cultivated land was the result.
Taxes must be paid on this land;
yet it brings the owner no income.
Farm laborers r undoubtedly
nee ded. but where can they be
procured
We believe the problem could
be solved by renting the land for
d stipulated sum, to reliable par.
ties, and the idle. thieving, crap
Migrants of our town
put to work ON 1t. A chain gang
isn't a very high tribute to the
productions OF classic Oxford, but
if the yaerant law was enforced,
such an organization might prove
remunerative as we'll as an effec.
tual check to crime and lawless.
ness. There is no doubt that pet
ty larceny and other misdemean.
ors, are on the increase in Oxford,
and the number of idle negroes
out number those pretending to
have employment. Determined
effort and united action from our
best citizens, would soon free our
town from this nuisance, and we
believe forced labor on a fam
would be the panacea. At any
rate the matter should receive the
serious consideration OF the law
abiding element of our town, 'ere
hoodlum rule becomes our perma.
nent authority.
