Melvin r. Baldwin represents the
Duluth, Minnesota, district in congress.
This district comprises twenty counties
with a population of 1887. Mr..
Baldwin, like a good many other
cuckoos, needed not the wishes of his
constituents but voted for free iron ore
along with the Wilson bill. There was
a municipal election in Duluth a few
days since and as that city is one of
the greatest shipping points for iron
ore in the country, the action of Con-
gresham Baldwin was made an issue
of the campaign. The result was the
election of a Republican mayor by
nearly 5000 majority and every Re-
publican alderman but one. AS the
city has been heretofore strongly Dem
cratic, the victory is a very significant

a tiny sketch of the person in ques-
