Not long after my first election to Congress, upon open- ing my mail at Washington, I found a letter dated in the

western part of Iowa, then far in the wilderness, reading in this way:


" MY DEAR OLD CHICAGO FRIEND: I see you have been getting up in the world, and it is so with myself, who am the Sheriff's deputy here, and I also keep hotel. I am the same one who made all the fuss dancing with the lady at the Lake House ball, and you were there; and the girl I married is the same domestic her husband danced with. The Judge of the Court boards at our house, and he often dances with my wife at the big parties here, where we are considered among the first folks, and I reckon my wife Bridget would put on as many airs as the lady did at the Lake House, if she should catch me dancing with domestics. I found out that those people who made so much fuss at the Lake House were not considered much where they came from. But they emigrated to Chicago, and then set up for big folks. So I thought I would marry Bridget and start for a new country where I could be as big as anybody. And now remember your old Chicago friend, and tell the President that I am for his adminis- tration, and would like to get the postoffice here."


I remember that during that session of Congress I boarded at the same house with Horace Greeley, and he was frequently in my room; and I think that it was from this letter he borrowed his sentiment, "Go West, young man! "


The New Court House and City Hall.


This magnificent building, located on the Public Square, with a frontage of 340 feet on Clark and LaSalle streets, and 280 feet on Washington and Randolph streets, is the most elaborate edifice in Chicago, and is said to be the finest of its kind in the world. It is in the modern French renaissance style of architecture, with a colonade story of Corinthian columns surrounding the sub-building, the whole producing a very fine architectural effect. These columns are each thirty-five feet high, and support an elegantly-proportioned entablature, which is divided into

architrave, frieze, and cornice. Over this entablature is an attic story, enriched with allegorical groups, representing Agriculture, Commerce, Mechanical Art, Peace and Plenty, and Science Art. The principal story is of Athens marble, with polished columns, pilasters, and pedestals of Maine granite. The whole is thoroughly fire-proof, and will cost, when fully completed, about $5,000,000.


Chicago "Yesterday and To-Day"-A Graphic Picture by Gen. Strong.


At a recent reception given by the Calumet Club to the " Old Settlers of Chicago," Gen. Strong in his address of welcome said:


More than forty years ago, Harriet Martineau, who was here, wrote of the then Chicago: " It is a remarkable thing to meet such an assemblage of educated, refined, and wealthy persons as may be found there living in such small, inconvenient houses on the edge of the prairie." And to- day you founders of Chicago witness the strange if not anomalous spectacle of your municipal bantling throwing into commotion the three leading nations of Europe, and causing their hoary statesmen to take down their long- shelved industrial creeds, and even to revise again what was supposed to be the postulates of political economy ; and all Europe, wonderful to relate, is discussing the re-enactment of corn-laws


When we contemplate these astounding results, how our incredulous minds turn back to verify for themselves the almost fabulous story of the date and origin of such a mu- nicipal prodigy; to try to discover the succession of events and their cause, which have produced the miracle of civic growth and power. And, sure it is, we find your story true.


Were they living, I would also call Heacock as a witness


" YESTERDAY,"

"TO-DAY."


[181]

STORIES AND SKETCHES OF CHICAGO.


-the sagacious, enterprising, "Shallow-Cut " Heacock -- the fundamental canon of whose hydraulic faith was that water would not run up hill. He was right, and you boys had to knock under or the canal would not have come. And Garrett, too, Auctioneer Garrett, him of the prophetic soul, who, with Abraham's faith, predicted the future greatness of Chicago, founded the Garrett Biblical Institute of Ev- anston, and, when short of change, was wont to send back to his laundress to be rewashed the shirts he could not re- deem.


But we have the living witnesses here to-night. Hubbard, Gurdon S. Hubbard, the oldest of this Trojan band; and Beaubien, the Apollo of the early settlers; and Caton, and John Wentworth, and Scammon, and Drummond, and Skinner, and Hoyne, and Blodgett, and Grant, and Morris, and Goodrich, and the Burleys, and Cobb, and Walter, and Arnold, and Raymond, and King, and Williams, and the Wadsworths, and Beecher, and the Kimballs-Mark and Walter-and Laflin, and Dickey, and Van Higgins, and Carpenter, and Carter, and Gray, and Stewart, and the Rumseys, and Stearns, and Boone, and Freer, and Taylor, and Wright, and Eldridge, and Follansbee, and Gale, and Botsford, and more than one hundred others whom I may not stop to name, gathered from all parts of the land-the men of that little log and clapboard village.


And there were the women, too-the noble, faithful women-your wives, who nursed the infant Chicago, and who, in all these years of waiting, shared your sacrifices, lightened your burdens, and sustained your faith.


Gentlemen, you saw the infancy of this city, and you see it to-day.


Yesterday a hamlet; to-day a continuous city, covering an area of more than fifty square miles. Yesterday not a single vessel had entered this port. Now more vessels


183

enter and leave this port every year in the season of navi- gation than in the same months enter all three of the largest Atlantic ports.


Yesterday you built your houses of logs. Now the lumber that is yearly sold in Chicago would freight a con- tinuous line of vessels 250 miles in length, and would load a freight train 1,400 miles long.


[The Pioneer.]


Yesterday you could not give away a lot of ground. Now every week there are more voluntary sales of real estate than in all the cities of New York, Philadelphia, and Boston, and I think I might safely throw in St. Louis


184


STORIES AND SKETCHES OF CHICAGO.


and Cincinnati. These are prophetic sales, too; prophetic of future growth, for the purchasers are largely from the other cities I have named.


Yesterday you fattened your yearly pig and made your own pork. You bought and sold none. Now the hogs and the hog-product sold and made here yearly exceed thirteen hundred million pounds, a line of living hogs that would reach nearly a quarter around the globe. The lard made by one Chicagoan is known the world over.


Yesterday the neighboring farmer dragged in through the mud his few bags of wheat or corn. Now one hundred and thirty million bushels of grain are sold yearly in Chicago-I mean are actually received from the adjacent country. Instead of the back-room of the store where you kept your wheat, there are now elevators with a capacity of fifteen million bushels.


Yesterday the aggregate sales of stock and merchandise, and manufacturers' products of all kinds, were less than ten thousand dollars yearly. To-day they are seven hundred and fifty million dollars. The annual sales of one dry- goods house are over twenty million dollars.


Yesterday the prairie-schooner was your only means of transportation. Now twelve thousand vessels yearly enter your port, and ten thousand miles of railway have their headquarters here, not including the Eastern lines, nor lines in the far West not controlled here, but which look to this city as their market.


Yesterday was heard the anvil of the single blacksmith. Now may be heard the hammers of the largest rolling mill corporation in the world, employing in all its branches over four thousand men and supporting over twenty thousand people with its capital stock above par, while even Pitts- burg mills barely survived the late panic.


Yesterday you waded through mud between your stores

and houses. To-day there are 1222 miles of con .. tinuous street railway, 650 miles of streets, 7.8 miles of boulevards, and 844 acres in improved parks.


Yesterday you dug your shallow wells in the surround- ing swamp. To-day you have 430 miles of water mains, and are annually supplied with 19,564,000,000 gallons of the purest water in the world.


Yesterday you groaned under a debt of seven thousand dollars, and feared municipal bankruptcy. To-day the ob- ligations of the city, if non-taxable, would stand on a par with the bonds of the Federal Government, and the mu- nicipal debt is less per capita than any other large city on the continent.


I hurriedly mention these few facts, showing what clothes your infant wears, because some of you now residing at a distance are not aware how the child has kept on growing since you left. Why, they thought they had destroyed it by fire a few years since. I'll tell you now (otherwise you might not know it by what you see) they did burn it up; that is, they burnt several hundred million dollars of build- ings and property. But the men you left here, and others that came in, built it right up, better than before; for you can't burn pluck, and enterprise, and courage, and faith. They are the indestructible gifts of God, and the best legacy you, the founders of Chicago, shall ever leave your chil- dren.
