PIONEER RIINE CLOSED.


The Pioneer mine at Ely, one
of the best hard ore mines Of the
Vermilion, has been closed down
throwing $50 men out Of employ
ment. This action marks q crisis
between the fee owners and lease
holders. The lease will expire
in about nine years. The les
sees have spent a great amount
of money in improving the mine,
but have never received any div
idends, and it is stated that they
could now sell the lease to Car
negie but for the short time it
has to run. The fee owners re-
fuse TO extend, except for a very
large bonus, thinking it to their
interest to wait and get all the
Improvements. While the les
sees make nothing out of the op.
Grafton of the mine the fee own
ers do and they can afford to
pocket their royalties and wait
for the lapse Of the lease. This
year their royalties will amount
to $4,000. The lessees are only
compelled, however, to mine an
amount which will pay $4,000
royalties, and this is what they
now propose doing, in an attempt
to force the fee. owners to terms.
The fee Of this valuable prop
erty is owned, one half by DR..
W. j. Conan, of SUPERIOR and
one-sixth each by Martin Patti
son and w. III. Pattison, of Su-
perior, and Robert Whitesldes,
Of Duluth. The principal lease
holders are Senator Spooner, of
Wisconsin, Thomas Bardon. Of
Ashland. and j. a.. Humbird.

since. Morally speaking Bristol is in a
very fine condition. We have three
churches in which are held about
seventeen services week, while dur
ing the week about thirty-two COM
mittees meet and deliberate as to the
best means of circumYenting the evil
one. There are no saloons or gamb

tons allowed are W. G. T. q. candy
pulls, gum chewing contests, (no prizes)
and pink teas for pious people.
