Duluth, Mimi, Jan. 18th, 1909.
To the Editor, Washburn Times.
The truth Of the late P. r.
Barnum's saying that the Ameri-
can people love to be humbugged,
was forcibly brought home to me
at last nights performance at the
Bijou. when the so called Austria
liam Wood Choppers (woodpeck-
ers would De more appropriate
gave their exhibition of saving
up logs and telling trees. To
man that has ever seen or per-
formed any of this class of work
in our pineries, and viewing their
performance as expert axmen,
could not help but imagine the
figure they would cut, pitted
against men that knew how to
handle cross cut saw and an
ak. Why. those men could not
hold down a job swamping trail
for rabbit in our northern pi-
neries. If those men were set
to chopping down a five foot tree,
between breakfast and dinner,
they would starve to death before
they had a chance to eat. To see
those fellows run around their
little sappling, it is a sight that
would bring tears to the eyes of
the most degenerate lumber-jack
that ever walked the bowery.
AS an exhibition of expert AK
it is so rotten that it is
good. An old Lumber Jack.
