PETITION DENIED.
The County Commissioners Refuse to Allo,o
Eue.eth to Incorporate as a city.


One of the most important mat
tiers coming before the board of
county commissioners at their
meeting on Friday last was the
petition for the incorporation of
Eveleth as a city.
AS had been expected the min
ing interests opposed the grant,
ing of the petition, as by it's
terms the mining properties in
the vicinity of the village we're
included in the tract it was asked
to have included within the cor
porate limits.
T. J. Davis appeared in behalf
of the mining interests and dis
cussed the petition at some
length, arguing that in several
particulars it was faulty and that
an election called in pursuance
with it would be illegally called.
Among other things he held that
on some subdivisions that it was
asked to have included in the
city none of those whose names
appeared on the petition were
resident; that the number. of
names on the petition (after re-

was given an opportunity to
speak. He said that as he un.
derstood the questions involved
to be purely legal ones there was
nothing ne desired to say except
to state that Mr.. Bowling, who
had been chairman of the meet

to ask for an election, had told
him that the idea of attempting

given up; that a petition was be-
ing circulated for the incorpora-

shat there was no sentiment in

Later in the meeting the board

The first special order in eth

upon the title of the lands in
question, claiming said lands as

mile for passenger fare, one-hali

that the senator and representa-
tives from this district will be
expected to take immediate &C.
