A GREAT OUTPUT.
Mesaba Iron Range Expected to Produce
100000 Tons This Tear.

Mesaba Iron Range Expected 70 PrOduce
100000 Tons This Tear.
DULUTH, Aug. More then 100
men are now working at the mines of
the Metropolitan Land and Iron
company, where the six weeks
strike ended last week. As
a result the shipments Of ore from the
Gogebic range have grown largely, and
will be enormous for several weeks.
Shipments from the Gogebic have been
up to date 775,0O0 tons and about 40O,-
900 tons more is contracted for vessel
room for the remainder Of the season.
Shipments from the other Lake Super
ior ports have been large, and the esti-
mated total out of this lake for the sea-
son to August is 100000 tons, or q
trife over half the shipments for the
entire season Of 1898.
Speculation is already lively as to the
Mesaba's share Of the output Of next
season, and it is
Put at q Very High Figure.
This year, the second in which the
range made shipments, it will exceed by
200, 900 tons at least, any of the older
ranges of the United States, with an
output Of not far from 100000 tons,
and for the season Of 1895 mining men
expect the range will ship all its two
railroads will be able to handle. The
Rockefeller road is gradually but stead
lily double tracking its line and will
have two tracks from its ore juno
tion to the Duluth docks by
in the spring Of 1895. The Duluth and
Iron Range road has surveys and esti'
mates OH new line to the Mesaba and
expects to build it during the coming
winter. With the new mines being
opened and made ready for business
and with the contracts now unfulfilled
that will be carried out next season, the
Mesaba should send out not far from
3,OOO,OO0 tons. The Rockefeller con
tract, made last fall with the Merritt
Brothers of this city, will not be within
100000 tons of completion this year
and will all have to be gotten out undel
it next year.

Measures of Importance Passed During the
Present Session.
WASHINGTON, Aug. S.-A review OF
the legislation which has been accom-
plished by the second session of the
Fifty-third congress up to and includ-
ing Aug 8, shows that much has been
done aside from the engrossing tariff
struggle which has largely diverted
public attention from matters which
would, under other circumstances, have
been considered of great Importance.
One of the most important acts OF
the session which passed both houses
by a strictly party vote, being in full
fillment Of plank of the Democratic
platform, was the act repeating all laws
creating federal supervisors of elections
or defining their powers.
Utah Admitted.
The act to enable the people Of Utah
to form constitution and state govern
ment and to he admitted into the Union,
provides the machinery by which the
territory will be admitted probably in
December, 1895, by adopting constitu-
ton providing a republican form OF
government and insuring against the
supremacy of any church. An act MAX
ing the first Monday in September le-
gal holiday, to be called Labor day, was
passed. Three bills We're passed to give
effect to the award Of the tribunal OF
arbitration at Paris which adiudicated

PHILADELPHIA, Aug. S.-The Phila-

of its kind in the country, is a smoking
wreck of crumbling walls, charred tim

joining property are badly damaged.
The conhagration started between the

ball park. The Philadelphia and Balti-
more teams had been scheduled
to play two games at the park i'll the
afternoon, and the players were either

noticed narrow tongue of flame shoot

fire serious and several of the bystand-
ers started to put it out. In an instant

POPULIST STATE PLATFORM

we, the representatives VI ChC
Peoples party of Kansas, in con-
vention assembled, do hereby re-
affirm our allegiance to the princi-
Piles enunciated in the Omaha plat
form, and point to the record of our
representatives in congress as an
evidence of their loyalty to that
platform. We meet at this time
under conditions which see every
prophecy then made fulfilled, and
every indictment which was made
therein against the Republican and
Democratic parties proven.
Our sy mpathies go out to the un-
employed, homeless and landless
people of the country, who have
been brought to their present con-
dition, in a great measure, through
the vicious, unAmerican policy OF
this government and we hold sa-
cred the declaration that all men are
created equal they are endowed
by their Creator with certain in
alienable rights; that among these
are life, liberty and the pursuit of
happiness.
We most heartily commend our
present state officials for their wise
and economic administration of state
affairs, that has saved to the tax
payers thousands of dollars, and
the Populist Legislators for their eff
forts to enact into law every de-
mand of the state platform adopted
at Wichita in 1892.
We demand the free coinage of
silver at the ratio of 16 to |, and
denounce any party that is so COM
pletely under the control of the
gold-bugs that it dare not take a
stand for the people on this all-im-
portant question which means SO
much to the wage-earners and pro-
ducers of our country.
The comptroller's reportfor 1898
shows that, during the year, 1853
national banks suspended, leaving
financial ruin in their wake. We
again reiterate our condemnation OF
this, the so-called best banking sys-
tenn the world has ever known, and
demand in its stead banks of deposit
under the control of depositors, and
the deposits guaranteed by this
government.
That we are unalterably opposed
to issues of interest bearing bonds,
and demand instead the issue of full
legal-tender treasury notes, and the
payment of the same, together with
silver money, to meet the needs of
the government.
We condemn the unwise and
cruel policy of all governing parties
in this nation whose legislation has
favored capital and oppressed labor,
nnd I'VE hereby declare onr symna.
