From The Eyoning WISCONSIN,.

CFrom the Evening wisconsin,.
The Upper Peninsula comprises a
arge territory. There are in all l0-
10000 acres OF land up here. enough
territory TO make thirteen Rhode Is
lands! II has one thousand miles of
icoast, its shores being laved by the
waters of Lake Superior, Huron and
Nichiean, and many of the greatest
natural harbors in the iand are 10 be
found along It's water FRONT. The pop
ulation is about 950,00O.
Concerning the upper peninsula, its
advantages and possibilities in en- agri-
cultural way,
Less than seventy five years ago the
upper peninsula became a part Of the
state OF Michigan. AT that time II was
insidered Comparatively ~worthless
territory. Il was thought that it's geo
graphical position would make IL un-
favorable to agriculture because Of
short seasons and cold climate. The
man that would have predicted the
development that has followed since
The opening OF such eNhuustless wealth
m mines. farms, factories and COM
merce-the existence Of many flourish
ing villages, towns and ciues-would
have been called a dreamer.
The natural resources of the upper
peninsula are SO abundant, particular
ly in her supply of copper IRON ore and
lumber, that the business Of farming
mas been neglected, ana the farmer
in the upper peninsula has not received
the justice due him i'm the industrial
classification. Nevertheless the nat
ural advantages that present them
selves 10 the farmer everywhere are
many. and his influx 10 the lands of
the upper peninsula is steadily growing
larger and larger from year to year.
There is also an idea neld by some
persons that the upper peninsula of
Michigan is located near a region of
snow and ice aud perpetual cold. where
the natural forces i'm the soil are dor
mant during the greater portion of the
year. and where the soil is cold infer
tile ard unfit for cultivation, There is
also the erroneous impression that the
seasons are too short for the proper
maturing of crops and that the climate
is objec ctionable; that markets and
traffic and all forms of transportation
are as yet undeveloped and that civil
ization is just beginning 10 take root
These ideas concerning the upper
peninsula are of course ridiculous. The
natural as well as artificial, cCndi-
tions Of the upper peninsula are no
different than they are in other sec
tions of our country similarly located
The climatic conditions are the same
as those of the northern portion Of
New York, the northern one-half of
Wisconsin. central Minnesota, The
northern line OF south Dakota and Of
Oregon, and 600 miles south of tho
Canadian wheat belt. Look at the
market progress that these sections
Of the adjoining states are making.
Note the yield and the abundant crops
that they are harvesting; the fine 1--we
stock that they are raising and OBJ
serve the rapid rise in the values of
their farms What is true of these
older and more settled sections of ad-
Joining states will also be true in the
near future Of the upper peninsula.
Heretofore the pioneer se,tlers di-
rected their attention To the chopping
Of wood posts and ties, To the saving
Of logs and the peeling Of bark rather

THE VICTORY IN MAINE.

The great victory Of the Republicans
in Maine yesterday is significant in its
bearing on the national election. Re
pubHcans generally will find much
announcement in II.
After two years of Democratic rule,
Maine returns to the Republican fold

The outcome shows that the ma
iority of the people OF Maine are dis
satisfied with the Democratic admin
istration and have no faith in Demo-
cratic promises. The Democrats have
been given a fair trial and found
wanting. Two years ago the voters
wanted a change. but this year they
were as eager to change back, having
had enough.
