BICE’S POINT AND DULUTfI,
It is a mystery to every unbiased business
man in Duluth as well as Superior, why
the powers that be, in the Duluth develop
ment, do not make Rice's Point their base
of operations.
It would nut cost them a dollar for break
waters, canals, dikes, repairs, or litigations.
It would give them miles of frontage on
the deep St. Louis channel without a farth
ing’s expense for dredging. It would lll)i
set Minnesota and Wisconsin by the ears
as does the present miserable policy of the
Duluth managers with their motto of mi
or ruin. It would give the operation an
appearance of fairness and of legitim.ate en
terprise that it does not now pos>ess. Ii
would seem to put everyth; ng in their fav -r
instead of everything against th m fro u tin*
first.
We do not know that the -directors of
this singular movement in the history of
speculation will get tired of lighting against
time and tide, and the work of nature, and
legal right; we do not know whether they
will grow weary of their lavish expenditures
and their present habits of paying out two
dollars to earn one, but we do know that
men of common sense in Duluth itself are
heartily sick of this whole style of doing
business and ardently wish their head cen
tres would change base from Minnesota
Point with its total lack at present of ade
quate harbor accommodation, outside or in
side, and go to Rice’s Point, where ihe Du
luth movement would have an open tie! 1
and a fair start.
Now is a good time to m ike the change.
The railroad company is uuderstoo 1 t<> have
assumed the reins at last and to have re
lieved the pioneer junta from the cares of
govenim tit, and the immediate develop
ment of Rice's Point as a business centre
with all the shops, manufactories, docks,
and warehouses necessary woul I give an
impetus to the “Spring ope* ing" that would
be of no small benefit to the North Shore
enterprise, and put it on what it lias never
bad yet, that is, a firm business found
ation.
It is entirely in favor of such a change
that the Railroad men were originally i i
tending to develops the real business ot
Du nth on Rice's Point, as witness the finely
built Dock still idly standing there waiting
for a renewal of the same busy scent s
which it witnessed in the summer ot 1809,
when splendid propellers of the largest
class, tin Meteor , St. Paul, Northern JLiyht ,
and other floating palaces, steamed rapidly
up the St. Louis channel and bay alongside
that Dock, transferring their hundreds ol
tons of freight to its keeping.
It was a grand mistake on the put of
somebody that the Elevator was not in that
vicinity instead of its present hazardous sit
nation. But if a hundred and fiity thou
sand dollars were thrown away upon its
construction and altogether a half million
sunk by various parlies in the outer harbor
follv, it is no reason tor continuing to throw
money mio Lake Superior, but rather a rea
son fur closing out ail interest in the fbol-
ish policy at once.
The building of ;i railroad on the North
Shore at all was sufficiently costly, but that
could not be helped owing to the nature ot
the route, and if Minnesota must have a
railroad of her own to the Lake, we do not
see how it could have been built for less;
all its curves and cuts and trestles are a
necessity, but the outer harbor expert cent
is continuing the same exaggerated scale
of expenditure for no good reason.
We put the prophecy on record that
every dollar expended on the outer harbor
will eventually be a dead loss, it would
be money in the company’s pocket to put
up their new freight houses on Rice's Point
out of the way of L ike Superior s waves
and ice. Besides, steamers will never teel
safe out there. The Arctic , propeller, win
tered at Rice's Point, and other craft there
and in the Bay of Superior because they
did not wish to risk the winter rage of Lake
Superior behind the frail cribbing in the
lake at Duluth.
An I this will continue to be the feeling.
The company will have to come to it
They cannot pay out money forever. It
would be a mark of sound judgment and
the best business stroke ever done on the
north shore to let the costly experimenting
in the open Lake come to an end, and a
legitimate an I paying railroad business un
fold itself this season along the navigable
and land-locked waters at Rice's Point.

day,” said Schnttle to a friend.—“flow >o?”

LABOR RIOT IN DULUTH.
On Thursday hist there was quite a seri
ous riot iu Duluth among the large number
ot idle men 111 that place, induced by an
attempt on their part to dissuade a number
of men who had hired at £1.75 per day
fr<m working for so low a price. Alter
considerable effort on the part of Mayor
Culver, and other prominent citizens, as
sist*ol by the police, the rio. *s dispersed.
Commenting upon the riot, the Duluth i
Morning Call of Friday thus unveils a state
of affairs in Duluth that will no doubt as
tonish many who have implicitly bell ved
every word they have seen in print in rela-|
tion to Duluth, and who have looked on
that place as a very paradise for laboring
men. Hear what the Call says:
Tli - true story of the laborers of Duluth is this.
During last f ill ami the early part of winter, deliberate
lies were concocted in this city and sent nut through
the puffing press as real estate advertisements for Du
luth, to the effect that two hundred thousand dollars
had been voted by the Northern Pacific Railway Com
p .nv, to be immediately expended on Docks in Du
luth. Another lie was that a large amount of money
was to be immediately put into extensive rolling mills
in this city. All of which would afford steady work
;iiid fair pay to the working man during the entire win
ter months. We say that these were deliberate lies,
without a shadow of truth connected with them. At
that tune the Northern Pacific Railway Company had
never intimat' and that they would construct docks in
this city. Neither had thev or any other company.
much as dropped a whi-per that a Rolling Mill would
he built. The whole matter was a deliberate fraud.
How many lots it has sold, is a matter on which we
are uninformed. But we do know that it had the de
sired effect of adding to, and keeping two hundred la
boring men in this citv out of employment during the
whole winter through. Promises upon promises were
made. Their litt chard earned money was soon spent
for bread D"i>.- contracted, trunks sold and “ the best
clothes” put "i! s* cinty. The dars rolled by. The gay
holidays came and w nt. The puffing machines-con
tinued to Mow. wuiie the shirks looked on and laugh
ed. The winter sports a ore away, the snow niched
from the streets, the ice loosened in the bay, and the
birds began 10 sing.
But the docks failed to put in an appearance. The
two hundred laborers or more, who, through failure to
obtain work had by their idleness, grown in a measure
respectable, were likewise ii debt, destitute, and de
cidedly dejected. Many of them had been driven from
their boarding houses, for the non-payment of board.
They had no raonev to take them away, nor yet to
help them stay. The families of many of those men
were in distant countries. As the stern command to
"go home,” came from Mayor Culver’s lips, we notic
ed the tears twinkle in many a “rioter's” eye. Could
the Mayor’s command, but have been obeyed, a hun
dred stout men of Duluth would have been happy.
‘Knows’t thou the hind where the lemon trees bloom.
Where the gold orange glows in the deep thicket’s
gloom ;]
Where the wind ever soft from the blue heaven blows,
And the groves are of laurel, and myrtle, and rose ?”
Yes we know, old Top Knott says it is
up at Duluth, and he is such a truthful cuss,
that we cannot dispute him. The lemons,
however, are supposed to be taken in whis
key, while the oranges are imported via De
troit. The wind, is always there. Itisso/2

Homesteads in Kokthkkn Wisconsin.
—Few of the citizens of southern Wiscon
sin, and we would include our public men
and officers who should take an intere't in
developing the fact, have a correct idea in
relation to northern Wisconsin as regards its
capabilities for the maintenance and pros
perity of an immense agricultural popu
lation. The surveys of the Wisconsin Ceu

i by lami-lookcr>) have made known the rich
