Wakefield philosopher catches cold amid grand oratory
A Wakefield man famed for phrases cannot explain how he caught a cold, illustrating that eloquence does not translate into understanding illness. The remark contrasts lofty rhetoric with simple, common susceptibility to illness.
Gogebic ore route sparks lake port dream
A Milwaukee Telegram style feature argues for a new 13 mile rail line along the Gogebic iron range to reach Lake Superior, electrify ore movement, and power a revived Lumber industry. It envisions a Black River mouth harbor, cheap electricity, and year round ore sales, boosting Ashland and Wakefield. It notes high rail freight, regional steamship limits, and potential industrial growth across the Great Lakes region.
