LEASE OF THE NEW JERSEY RAILROADS EY
THE PENN B. R. CO— ANOTH R VIC
TORY OVER NEW YORK.
The New \ork dailies ate paying special
attention to the late lease of the New Jer
sey railroad system by the Pennsylvania
Railroad Cos. It i< equivalent to Philadel
phia purchasing the whole state of New
Jersey, and making it a suburb of the Qua
ker city. It has had the effect to open the
eyes ot Gotham wide enough to see where
she missed it. Says a scared correspondent
of one of the N. Y. papers, ihc New Jersey
railroads “held in their own hands the keys
ot the great gates of commerce between the
Atlantic and Pacific coasts; and between
the North and the South.” That is to say
the Pennsylvania R. R. holds those keys
now, and has cut New York’s communica
tions w ith the West and South. We have
been trying to make the N. Y. press seel
this as a possible event for a year past,
jbr they kn w too much to be instructed!
> a tt pr ss. It is impossible lor
on - ,e <>t New York to know
-V i one ol those remarkable I
■ .no.ished a statement of this paper i
it very subject last winter, by a calm ;
f retice to the fact that the Penn. R. R,
was even then trying to lease the New Jer
sey r ad'l It drew the consoling infer
ence that N w York was about to absorb
Philadelphia and h*r trade. The latest
nows is that Philadelphia is importing
goods from Europe via New York city,
making the metropolis a mere way station
That does not look like absorbing Phila
delphia trade And in this connection per
mit us to impure, how are you, New York
Advertiserf How are you on paddle
wheels? The New York Imrbor resoundeth
with ye beat of ye paddle wheels bringing
through freight for Philadelphia.
The N. Y. Evening Post, which like the
Tribune and one or two others of the New
York papers has still a little sense left, -ays
“already there are plans afoot in busy
brains for the aecpii-itiou of one of the
great lines from o. ile Mississippi,
and when this is carried out, the Penn. ft. 11.
Cos. will own or control beyond tiiepower of
any riv tl the whole of the highway from
New York, Philadelphia and Baltimore, ail
the way to Salt Lake City, with but one
i ap to make to the Pacific ocean.” That
leap will be to Portland, Oregon. Both
Pacific hues will have their Western ter
mini at Portland, Oregon, and their East
ern termini at Philadelphia, unless New
York makes a diversion soon, and that di
version must be made at the head of Lake
Superior. Philadelphia controls a large in
terest here and will finally have complete
control, unless New York allows the scales
to fall from her eyes, and takes possession
of all available foothold in this region, and
builds or buys an air line connection be
tween here and Chicago. We are talking
to the Tribune , Times and Post. Do they
hear us? They have sense enough to know
that the time for treating these warnings
with contempt has pa-sed. Let them give
their readers the facts.
THROWING UP THE SPONGE.
The last Duluth Tribune is entirely too
hist in concluding from our article on Du-1
luth victories, that Sup -rior is hanging out j
the white (lag. Tint article s-t forth the*
unfairness, and illegal nature of the Duluth j
in h* o. hu.ldi ga town. Not while there j
is a single prospect of’ truth, and law, and
ho i t fort, (ina ly overthrowing the Dn-j
utli eh nery, illegal work, and dark ways I
>f p <ce in: ..gainst our rights, will we!
r tire from the field. When we surrender!
o inj i slice, and unfair opposition, the Tri
bune will not be left morelv to infer it.
LATEST ON THE CANAL QUESTION.
'The St. Paul Pioneer of yesterday, has
the f Jlowing:
-
The Chicago Evening Post of W. dnesday lias a dis- 1
patch from Madison, Wis., stating that the Wisconsin •
Slate authorities have not abandoned the attempt to
prevent the Duluth people from destroying the Supe
rior liar >or hy tlioir Minnesota Point canal, and are
hopeful of success.
Our citizens will see that the State ol
W isconsin is not disposed t<> give up lie
rights, ami interests, at the head of Lake
Superior, at the bidding of the interested
gentlemen who have lately misrepresent* and
the question—at Wash ngton, and influ
enced the executive "dicers of the gt-nerd
government to a wrong decision We ur
gently hope that our State will us all
promptness in the matter, as her interests,
and ours have suffered 100 much already
from past delay, and the swift intrigues of
our neighbors.
Young women should always > t good
examples, for the young men are always
following them.
THE SUPERIOR TIMES.
VOL. 1.
THE LAKE SUPERIOR TRADE.
The Buffalo Coniine* cial Advert irer
sounds the following alarm:
There now lies befor us an advertising map. which
will he very widely circulated, and on which the route
via the Lakes from Duluth to Erie and thence to Piiil
adclphia and New York by the Pennsylvania railways,
is conspicuous! v displayed. This is only the beginning
| of a systematic plan for advertising the advantages of
that route all over the country. The projectors and
advocates of the Northern Pacific Railways, also, are
playing into the hands of the Pennsylvania Central, by
magnifying the importance and advantages ot the port
| of Erie as the eastern end of the Lake route for the
traffic of their road. Hon. William D. Kelley, in an
| addre" recently delivered at Philadelphia in the in
terest of tiie Northern Pacific road, pictured vessels
leaving the head of Lake Superior to discharge their
cargoes at Erie for the ports of New York, Philadelphia
and Baltimore, and he said; “It requires but little
power of the imagination to behold the city of Erie
overshadowing Buffalo, Cleveland and Detroit, and
expanding into rivalry with Chicago.”
We have good reason to believe that these adver
tising expedients will be pushed to their utmost use
fulness. and we fear that they arc likely to effect their
purpose. We direct attention to the subject in the
knowledge that the attempt to build up the port of
Erie in the interest of the Pennsylvania railways, at
the exp use of Buffalo and the New York lines, is an
earnest attempt, and that it will be vigorously pushed
in every direction. Our business men must look to
their interests. The New York lines ought to be will
ing to do their part toward making it an object for the
Lake Superior and Northern Pacific traffic to go to
New York via Buffalo. Perhaps they are; but at any
rate, our merchants should give the subject their ear
nest attention.
We are glad to see any of the Buffalo
papers awakening to a true understanding
of what the Duluth trade moans. In an
article on this subject, last winter, wo call
ed upon the pre>s of the Empire State, to
remember that “Duluth” [and her trade]
meant “Erie, and not Buffalo; Harrisburg,
and not Albany; Philadelphia an I not New
York.” At the time, the Buffalo papers so
far from heeding nwere busily engaged
in publishing long-winded communications
from scribblers in Duluth, who made a reg
ular business of pulling that Pni adelphia
suburb into notoriety, and striving to con
nect the name of the Northern Pacific with
it- If We regret to see the Advertiser
has tai eu into the trap far enough to blame
the projectors of the N. P. lor this Erie di
version. This is a mi-lake. The Northern
Pacific is in the hands of Jay Cooke, at
present, by reason of his connection with
it a- financial agent Kelley’s speech at
Philadelphia, and all similar speeches, os
tensibly in the name of the Northern Pa
cific. are engiiu ered hj r Mr. Cooke, who is
‘throwing all his influence in favor of Du
luth, and the Erie route to Philadelphia.
But we happen to know that the Northern
Pacific road has not accepted Duluth, and
the Erie and Philadelphia connection, as a
finality; and if it receives proper encour
agement from the Empire State, it will not.
The Northern Pacific at this hour is wil
ling to see its vast trade pour through Buf
falo. But that will not come by courting
Duluth, as the press of your city did last
winter ; for Duluth means Jay Cooke and
Penn. Central. Nor will it come by calling
on the New Y‘ork lines to bid low for the
Duluth trade. Jay Cooke and his Penn
sylvania lines will take away the Ui>t pound
of freight from New York ports, propellers,
or li. K. lines, and it is just as well for the
Empire state, and the City of Buffalo to see
it now, as see it when too late. Let your
press urge upon the moneyed men of tlie
state ot New York, to invest heavily at the |
head of Lake Superior in a locality, not j
controlled by the Philadelphia interest;
that is the town of Superior, which can be
made the lake terminus of the N. P. in the
interest of New York state, if a concerted
effort is set on foot at once. We are
weighing our words in saying this, and feel
that you may some day thank us for the
warning.
According to Mr. Henry V. Poor’s
Railroad Manual lor 1871-2, now just pub
lished, there were in operation, in the
United States, on the first day of January,
1871, 53,145 miles of railroad, of which 0,-
145 were opened the past year —a greater
number than in ,m\ previous year by 2,000
miles. The total earnings of these roads
during the past year were ¥.450,000,000.
The gross tonnage transported over them
equaled 125,000,000 tons, having a value of
more than $10,000,000,000. Their cost may
be put down, in round numbers, at $2,400,-
000,000. Their mileage, in ratio to the
population of the country, i> as one to 723.
Their earnings equal $1..75 to each inhab
i The tonnage transported equaled
tons to each; the value of Inis tonnage
equaled $282 each.
Judge Reed, President, and Mr. E. G.
Roberts, Treasurer, of the Wisconsin Cen
tral, returned bom Bayfield on Monday
evening. Mr. Reed informs us that ar
rangements have been made for an early
completion of the railroad Iron, ihe head

SUPERIOR, WISCONSIN, SATURDAY, JULY I, 1871.
UTEST NEWS FROM THUNDER B4Y SIL
VER MINING DISTRICT ON THE NORTH
SHORE OF SUPERIOR.
N’E if emigrant route to
RED RIVER.
Surveying for a British N. P. R. R.
On the return of I. I. Moore, Esq., of this
place, from the above district, we are ena
bled to give the following reliable informa
tion : The Silver Islet Mine is progressing
finely; the \ei:i increasing in width and im
proving in richness as they go down. One
hundred and fifty tons of ore which runs
from SSO to $ 00 per ton, besides some 0
or 40 barrels of selected ore which looked
rich enough to yield 50 per cent, of >ilver,
was shipped last week to the Company’s
Smelting Works, near Detroit.
i This mine is proving itself to be the won
| der of the mining world. Under the direc
! tion of Mr. Sibley and personal niannge
| ment of Capt. Frue, this mine has proved
| a wonderful success from the first day that
work was commenced on it. There has
been perhaps more work done in and around
it in the same length of lime than any simi
lar undertaking.
The Beck mine on the main shore is pro
gressing slowly, mainly from want of an
experienced management. The ore here
tofore taken out shows rich in sulphide of
silver. The shaft now being sunk is down
some 40 feet or more. Progress of sinking
very slow, most -of the time employed in,
keeping out the water which seems to be
on the increase as they go down. Some
doubts have been expressed by competent
mining engineers as to whether they are
now at work on the true lode; though the
metamorphosed slate (which is the country
rock forming the wall) still shows very rich
deposits of silver ghince.
Capt. John Beck, one of the principal
proprietors of this mine, occupies most of
his time in prospecting, and has lately dis
covered two or more very rich lodes on his
Company’s lands adjacent. These will be
developed in due course of time, when the
Company are through with surveying and
locating other Limits sk Ijoi ning. Although
Capt. Beck is not generally regarded as a
regular practiced mining man, he has the
luck somehow to stumble on most of the
good discoveries made on the main shore.
We do not ot course mean to say he has
got all the best locations, but by his untir
ing energy and constant explorations has
more fully developed the locations owned
by bis Company, than has yet been done by
any company on the main land. Other
parties are now just starting in to examine
their lands thoroughly, and are locating
with most encouraging success.
There is no longer doubt as to the great
extent and almost unheard of richness of
the lodes, in this district, along the main
shore of Like Superior. Prospecting com
panies ot from four to ten with all the nec
essaries, such as provisions, tents, picks,
drills, sledges, small boats, Su c., are con
stantly arriving. The woods are full of ex
plorers, as well as mosquitoes and black
flies. It is a bard life though it pays well
to the lucky finder of a rich lode, and of
these there are not a few.
The Canadian people are beginning to
believe it is not all a Yankee humbug got
ten up for speculation. Some of them who
are best posted in minerals have secured
good locations, and some have already
realized handsomely on their investments.
The Government has suddenly struck out
on a bold ]>olicy in developing this section
in common with their whole Northwest
Territory, hitherto unheard of for them. It
their usual red tape policy of procrastina
tion can be for once laid aside, and the en
terprises now begun in this section pushed
vigorously to a successful completion, we
may well hesitate whether it is better to
annex or be annexed.
The emigrant or wagon and water route
from Prince Arthur’s landing on Thunder
Bay to Ft. Garry on the Red river, is be
ing pushed as fast as possible, with a force
of from 300 to 500 men under the direction
of the projector, Mr. J. L. Dawson.
Fi\e small steam tugs, with complete
machinery have been forwarded, and are
| being put on the navigable portions of the
route. These are simply intended for tow
ing scows or flat boats on whiefi emigrants
neight *fcc. will be transported. Although
notice of the route being opened for emi
grants and freight has not yet been given,
the freight depot and emigrant house at the
landing has already been crowded. The
steamer Algoma brought up over 150 pas
sengers on her last trip, besides a goodly
freight. One hundred or more, consisting
of men, women and children, started next
day for Ked river. How iney are to get
there in the present unfinished stale of the
route, is mbre than any one can tell. In
many placet the line ot wagon travel is not
yet passably and on the water portions of
the route thi steam tugs have only just start
ed from theianding, and budding of barges
or temlers oily com men cd. Perhaps boun
tiful nature who philosophers say, supplies
adaptation of circumstances to us poor mor
tals, will endow these pioneer emigrants
with a kind, of amphibious or web footed
natures to enable them to make the trip.
At all events they say they prefer to take
tluir etunecs rattier than submit to the
m oiy tmunyances and delays from
ihe Custom House officials, and enormous
railroad charges through our country.
By way pf explaining how things are
done on our side, then* is a story among
these emigrants, that among the early Rod
river emigrant s tliis spring via Duluth, St.
Paul. &c , that one well-to-do Canadian
farmer landed at, Duluth with his family,
having some ready money in his pocket,
wagons and horses, farming utensils, house
hold and kitchen furniture, &c. Prepara
tions for the journey, unnecessary delay and
Custom House fees at Duluth, relieved him
of all his spare cash. The trip to St. Paul
and 'eight hill by the radroad,took his horses
and wagon, and at the next station his
household goods and fanning utensils went
to pay the bills, and the poor man has never
been known to reach his destination, or
heard trom since by bis friends. For the
whole trutli ot this story we do not vouch,
but must say it is rather a novel way of
inducing emigrants to settle in our country.
The most significant project is just being
opened out in this North Shore district by
the Canadian Government, ever yet under
taken by them. The Government steamer
Rescue arrived at Prince Arthur’s landing,
Monday, with something near 100 men
aboard, consisting of engineers, chainmen,
axemen, &e,, in the employ of the Govern
ment, for the ostensible purpose of running
out lines for their Northern Pacific H. R.
Already four or five parlies are in the field,
running out trial lines from different points
on the Jake shore. Some have gone to the
interior to examine for a route, others will
commence at the west end, at Fort Garry,
and run east to meet those from the lake.
There is much talk of the road being built
at once. Some of the officials say the Can
adian government intends this winter giv
ing such liberal subsidies, both in land and
money, that capitalists to build stand ready
to commence work. Others speak of a pos
sible arrangement to combine with our
North Pacific west from the Red river.
We know too little of the facts to venture
an opinion as to how much there is in all
this.
The telegraph, as a successful enterprise, is the
growth of the last 2o years. Almost the entire world
is now embraced within its network of lines. Europe
possesses 4.70,000 miles of wire, and 13,000 stations;
America, 180,000 miles, and (!,000 stations; India,
14,000 miles, and 2>o stations; Australia, 10,0< 0
miles, and 270 stations; and the extension throughout
the world is at the rate of 100,000 miles of wire per
annum. There are, in addition, 30,000 miles of sub
marine telegraph wire now in successful operation,
ex ten tending beneath the Atlantic and German oceans;
the Baltic, North, Mediterranean, Red, Arabian, and
China seas; the Persian Gull, the Bay of Biscay, the
Strait of Gibraltar, and the Gulfs of Mexico and St.
Lawrence.
The above is interesting, but a line of
seven miles from here to Duluth, vr
twenty-three from hero to Yokoiuo, would
be of more immediate importance to us.
Shall we have a telegraph ; What say our
“non-residents ?”
The Duluth Canal. —We understand
that Duluth proposes to give or has given
bonds for the conditions being
that she will build a dam or obstruction in
tin* Hay of Superior, so as to prevent the
wa. ’ of the St. Louis river from flowing
into lie new canal, and that the Attorney
General of the United States has agreed to
withdraw the suit and not prevent Duluth
from keeping open the canal.
We leant, also, that the canal is now
open, sixteen feet deep, and in consequence
thereof vessels cannot enter Superior har
bor, as they have heietofore done for six
teen years.
The Attorney General of Wisconsin, who
has, we believe, been requested by the At
torney Genera! of the United States to
withdraw the suit does not want to do so.
We believe he does not regard the bond of
Duluth as sufficient, lie does not think it
is right to obstruct the Bay of Superior, a
navigable sheet of water, with dams as pro
posed, thus preventing water communica
tion between Superior and Duluth except
by lake. We publish the above as the
latest rumors. We expect something more
definite soon. —Madison Journal.
The Janesville Gazette says: “Judge
Conger has decided in the Circuit Court
that under the amended law of 1870, a jus
tice lias no jurisdiction over actions on bills,
notes &c., given tor more than one hundred
dollars, and not reduced by payment or
credits given within that sum This has
long been a mooted question with our jus
tices, and we are glad that is tinahy de
cided.
We learn from the Hudson *S'£orthat the
work on the West Wisconsin Railway
bridge across the St. Croix has actually be
gun. There is a large crew of men engag
ed, at present, and we learn that mam
more are t<> be employed. The contractors
brought up several Hat boats, two pile dri
vers, one large engine, and all their tooN
from LaCrosse. The work will now be
pushed vigorously, and the bridge compi -
led in the early fall— St. Paul Pioneer.
Railroad Bridge Across the Saint
Croix —The first pile on this end of' the
West Wisconsin Railway bridge over the
St. Croix, at Hudson, was driven on Wed
nesday morning, on the point below Mr.
Baldwin’s mill. A crowd of three or tour
hundred assembled to witness the operation
among whom were several of the oldest in
habitants. Messrs, Smith Brothers, con
tractors, have three drivers, and exhibit a
determination to “push thing**.” Great ac
livity is displayed all along the line under
construction.— St. Croix Republican.
The Canadian Pacific Survey.—Coi
lingwood has been unusually alive the past
week. The surveying party has been
awaiting the arrival of the gunboat Rescue
and the Algoma to convey them to Fort
William. The party, which consists ot
more than 300 explorers are well organized
and the arrangements for the con luct of
the survey, are of the mo*t perfect and
comph te character. Three hearty cheers
were given on the Algoma steaming out of
harbor on Tuesday evening at lu o'clock.
On Saturday evening Dr, Lett made ap
propriate allusion to the great national
work in which the surveyors would soon
be engaged, counselled them not to neglect
God's Word, arid exercise of other Chris
tian privileges and warned them of the
dangers and difficulties that would beset
their path on every side. The attendance
at All iSaints’ Church, both morning and
evening, was unusually large, and a few
worshipers had to leave the church with
out being able to obtain admission.— Col
