It is said that a good banana, when baked in it's skin twenty min utes until it IS soft and bursts open, makes a full meal. Three bananas weighing one pound, are equal in nourishment to twenty-six pounds of bread baked. Bananas should never be eaten raw; they are full of animal germs and of tape worms. Baked bananas are the ideal food for nervous persons and brain work CTS. Lean persons who eat baked bananas gain flesh.-Ex.

VOLUME s, NO. I.

With this issue The Enterprise
enters upon the fifth year of it's
existence, and when it draws to
to a close we trust we may be
enabled to record prosperous
year, not for ourselves alone but
for all our patrons and the CON-
munity at large.
Coming here as we did in the
earliest days of the range. we
have seen a timbered wilderness
denuded of it's surface riches and
developed into the greatest iron
range in the world; a region of
unknown wealth still, but with
more ore already proven than
was proven on all other ranges
combined prior to it's discovery;
we have seen Virginia grow from
an insignificant hamlet of doz-
en- rude buildings to a village of
four thousand inhabitants, whose
zeal and energy was never better
tested than on the day they gazed
at the ashes of their burned city
and commenced the upbuilding
of a greater Virginia, today the
metropolis of the ilon ranges and
the center Of greater mineral
wealth than any other city in the
universe.
Our city shows proofof the pub.

THE MEASURE OF MN.

The place to take the true
measure Of a man is not the mar.
ket place or the amen-corner,
not the forum or the field, but at
his own freside. There he lays
aside his mask and you may learn
whether he's imp or angel, king
or cur, hero or humbug. It mat
ters not what the world says of
him-whether it crown him with
bays or pelt him with bad eggs;
it matters not what bis religion
or reputation may be; if his
bobes dread his home co ming
and his better half swallows her
heart every time she has to ask
him for a dollar, he's a fraud of
the first water, even though he
prays night and morn till he's
black in the face and bowls hal.
lelujah till he shakes the eternal
hills. But if his children rush
to the front gate to greet him.
and loves own sunshine illum
ines the face of his wife when
she hears his football, you can
take it for granted that he's true
gold, for his homes a heaven,
and the humbug never gets that
near the great white throne of
God. He may be a rank atheist
and a red-flag anarchist, a Nor
mon and a mugwump; he may
buy votes in blocks Of five and
bet on the election; he may deal
'em from the bottom of the deck
and drink beer till he can't tell a
silver dollar from a circular saw,
and still be an infinitely better
man than the hypocritical, cow
ardly little humbug who's all
sauvity in society, but who makes
his home hell-who vents upon
the hapless head of wife and
children the i'll nature he would
like to inflict on his fellow men,
but dares not. Much can be for.
given in that fellow mortal who
would rather make men swear
than women weep; who would

CITY NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS..

At the meeting of the joint

Council held on Tuesday even
ing, for the purpose of consider
ing and perfecting arrangements
for the re organization of the
city under the law of 1895, the
method and objects of such pro:
cedure were discussed, with the
result that it was seemingly con-
sidered inexpedient to go farther
in the matter unless the mines
adjacent to the present city lin
it's could afterward be taken in
without opposition. Upon mo-
ton a subcommittee of FIVE CON-
posed of Messrs W. P. Mars,
J. G. Jackson, M. G. Palmer. E.
S. Smith and Vivian Prince, was
appointed to ascertain whether
or not any decided opposition
would be encountered from the

definite action, pro or con, will
be taken.

HMITH' POOR JUDGMENT.

The Hibbing News of last is
sue contained q groundless and
tiresome TRADE about the board
of county commissioners "squan-
dering' the peoples money in
the building of the Miller trunk
road north from this city, and
puts forth a weakljng's effort to
have the board so change the
route of the road that 1t would
run northerly from Hib5ing in
stead OF Virginia. Bro. Smith
evidently needs a small dose of
enlightenment which he can re.
ceive by a careful perusal of the
proposition on which the bonds
were voted for the construction
OF said road. Smiths heart is
all right, but in this instance his
Judgment is way out of kilter.
