Mineral Point tribune. (Mineral Point, Wis.) 1869-1938, 1909-03-18

If any one doubt the utility of side
walks or feels that money could be ex.
pended to better advantage than ii
their construction, let him walk from
the foot of High street to the railroad
depot or from High street to the =. M.
church on South Chestnut street, and
we might mention other places. If we
rightly recollect, there was an ordinance
passed by the city council last summer,
requiring sidewalks on Commerce street
from the foot of High street to the
railroad depot With this understand
ing the railroad company built good
one to the extent of their jurisdiction
and VIM. Lanyon put one down in front
of his store and tin shop. Farther than
this the ordinance has not been OBJ
served.
Saturday morning opened with about
one inch of snow spread over the face
of nature. The warm sunbeams soon
removed the veil and exhibited only a
new installment of mud.
George Hicks, formerly a workman
in this office, was admitted to the prac-
tice of law before the circuit court at

FROM THE TRIBUNE FILES


We are indebted TO several gentlemen
Tor the following statistics and hope
others will aid us in continuing them:
IN 1887 the first paper was published in
Mineral Point by Marus d. Holbrook,
and called '"The Miners Free Press,
which, however, was continued but a
snort time. In the spring of lS45, C. G..
BRITT 4 Co. commenced the publication
OF the Mineral Point Democrat, which
was continued until the establishment
was removed to Madison. The filst
number of the Mineral Point Tribune
was printed Sept. 4th, 1S47. The first
log cabin in Mineral Point was blilt by
Nathan Morris; the first diggings also
struck by him in May, 1923. The first
frame building was built by John L.
O'Neil and is now occupied by n Curry
as store on Commerce street. The
first brick house was built by VIM.
Phillips and is now occupied by him as
a dwelling. Capt. VIM. Henry of Min
eral Point was the first person who
erected frame building in Galena. 1t
was in the year 1926.
We learn from Franklin correspond
ent that the miners in that vicinity are
doing an unusual good business at this
time which has operated like a cold
water bath upon those troubled with
the ''yellow fever. Several gentle
men have recently struck good leads
and Others have fine prospects.
