CHIEF MAYES of the Cherokees,
III his annual address to the ma
tional council, makes vigorous
protest against the radical legisla-
ton forced upon the Indians by
the United States government, and
suggests that an effort be made to
secure a new treaty with the Unit
ed States. A complete division of
tribal lands he considers necessary.
and he is right.

A LONDON cable letter says:
"One fact that does not escape at
tention here is that the United
States has become a creditor ma
tion, whose influence will be felt
with overwhelming force in any
European war. England and the
Continent are heavily in debt to
America on the last two years ex-
changes of trade, and this balance
remains uncOllected and virtually
on call. Her position as a credi-
tor nation is strengthened every
year by the expansion OF her ex-
port trade in food supplies and
cotton. The time has been when
nations were forced to go to Lon
don to borrow money to 90 to war.
America is now looming up as the
great creditor nation of the fu-
ture, the weight of whose millions
will be of determining influence in
deciding issues affecting the peace
Of the world" This is very fiat
tering to our national pride, but
we should rather see general and
permanent prosperity among the
masses of people-the great pro-
ducing classes, who are creating
the wealth and making it possi-
BILE for this government to attain
the greatness she is attaining.

MANY people try to create the i'm
preston in the minds of the Dawes
commission and the Interior de-
partment that only those citizens
OF the Indian Territory who have
large bodies of land inclosed are
kicking against the Curtis bill aud
the manner of allotting the tribal
lands. This is not true. The
most vigorous kickers are the full
bloods, most of whom have but
little lands inclosed. Over in the
Creek nation the fullbloods are at
war with those who are in favor of
the Curtis bill and the Dawes
agreement. just a few days since
the fullbloods made an attack On
the treaty leaders at Okmulgee,
and one man. was killed and eight
wounded.

THE war investigating board
promises that its report will not
be whitewash, and the blame will
be placed where it belongs. This
is gratifying as far as it goes, for
it has been the general impression
that the board was engaged mostly
in concealing the facts and in
proving that the private soldier
really went hungry and cold and
contracted typhoid fever as mat
ter of choice.

So FAR there have been l ,297
applications for pensions growing
out of the Spanish war. AS the
number of those who have lost
their lives so far amount to con
siderably over 5000, and as in ad-
dition to these many thousands
have lost their health, it is safe to
predict that those who have al
ready applied will prove to be an
insignificant part of the total.

Not as Large as Estimates.

There are still about 250,0 900 tons of
ore to be shipped from Two Harbors
and Duluth before the close Of navi-
CATION. 1t is said the aggregate in
crease in shipments of Minnesota ore
will be about 225, 900 tons. The total
shipments for the season will be s.
7s7, 900 tons as compared with 5,559,-
l53 for 1897.
This is a considerable falling of
from the estimates made last spring
1t is said that were it not for a scar
city of labor the shipments would
have been 100000 tons larger. The
increase in shipments is greater, how
ever, than the total shipments for the
state of Minnesota in 1885.

tuesday morning the word was pas-

the night previous.
Maxi was suddenly taken i'll and
expired soon after. The doctor was
present soon after his illness but it
was of no avail and his death occurred
Immediately.
The suddeness of his death caused
comment and Deputy Coroner Glea-
son upon hearing of the rumors decid-
ed that he would hold an inquest, and
in consequence post norton exam
ination was held. The doctors settled
upon the fact Mr.. Maxi died by rea-
son Of inflammation Of the bowels.
The funeral occurs tomorrow from
the Finnish temperance hall, the
City band and the temperance society
participating. Mr.. Maxi was one of
our principal business men and re-
spected by all who were acquainted

A Large Boat.

The American Steel Barge company
has secured the contract for building
the largest lake carrier ever built on
the great lakes or which ever was
foated on the entire chain of lakes.
The boat will be built for the Bes-
semer Steamship company, the Rookie
Teller people. and is to be ready for
launching next spring. 1t will be a
tow barge 400 feet long, so feet in
width. and 29i feet beam. This will
give an enormous capacity as is readi-
ly seen when compared with the larg-
est boats at present in the traffic bust
ness on the lakes. The Alex McDou-
gall, the largest boat ever built at
Superior next to the Morse. the most
capacious on the lakes, is 40 feet
long, so feet beam and q feet deep.
She has the record for grain cargoes
from Superior, having recently taken
out 247, 900 bushels Of wheat. Her
tonnage is about 1900. It will be
seen by the dimensions that the new
barge will be considerably larger be-
sides having no engines and other
machinery to occupy her space and
she will carry enormous quantities.
As the boats to be completed for the
Bessemer company so that she may
be placed in commission early next
summer. The American Steel Barge
people will commence operations just
as soon as it is possible to procure the
material and get things into shape.
Manager McDougall says that he ex-
poets to have fully LOCO men at work
as soon as this is accomplished and
this force will be employed all winter.
As the barge for the Standard Oil
company is already started. there will
soon be two boats on the stocks under
the large electric crane. and the yards
will see the busiest times they wit
messed since the boom days. There
will be no let up in the movement
now on at the yards until the two new
boats are lowed out next spring.

That county division is not dead
issue is not questioned. In fact it is
very much alive. The people of the
ranges will prepare and circulate their
own petitions hereafter and not let
the Duluth Pops who have all to gain
personally and nothing to lose, be
the whole head and tail OF the pro-
ceeding. This is not a question of
politics but of right. "Cut off this
oisreputable range end of this other
wise pure county" is the sentiment
expressed by Duluth. Do so gentle
men and as soon as tits done you will
necessarily pay the county taxes or 60
broke. At present all the cash comes
from the ranges and Duluth contends
itself with judgements. Iron county
will be in existence before 1900 and
then you will be sorry.

satisfaction of the smaller taxpayers.
A prominent official of the NJ. /. c.,
on being questioned regarding the
matter, denied the accusation point
blank. Still on figuring up the mat
ter, and on being closely pushed, he
admitted that Sargent, Halden, Nc
Innis and Dibell were on the COM
pany's retired list and excused the NJ
L. Co.'S action with the saying what
is meat for the master is flesh for the
man" As no one questions this, his
argument was good. However when
told the same rule applied in tax on
mines, and common cook stoves, he
was silent. The entire Republican
ticket was ahead in Soudan only the
four mentioned above running behind.
This is laid to the sample ballots and
accompanying instructions.
While the same sample ballots were
numerously distributed about the
mines here, in fact before it was
known any such plot to anihilate a
few of the Republicans was in exist
ence, the effects were not felt to any
material extent. Halden, Sargent,
Dibell and McInnis, all went out of
Ely with a majority, a fact very graft
flying. Manager Pengilly. of the
Chandler, while he admits the tickets
were here and supposed to have been
pushed, says he did not feel it his
duty as a good Republican to work
against the straight ticket. Be this
as it may. 1t is claimed the NJ. I. Co.
has no particular strings on the
politics of Chandler or its mango
ment. This claim is vouched for by
Manager Pengilly.
The straight Republican ticket, ac-
cording TO all accounts, was worked
on election day about the mines, and
while it may seem strange to the Du-
luth Demo-Pops to find no coercion
connected with the election it is
nevertheless a fact that none was
attempted.
One excuse we have heard for the
opposition of the NJ. /. G. against the
four candidates is their opposition to
the county division. Now while there
was some opposition to the movement,
there is no positive assurance that
either one of the four worked very
hard against the proposition. 1t is
almost an assured fact that Mr.. Nc
Innis worked hard for division. Be
sides, why would there be any oppusi-
tion by the mining companies against
those who worked against division?
Other reasons probably are para
mount.
There is now not particle Of doubt
that the last campaign effectually
settled the Hon. Chas. A. Towne.
The Stearns county farmers who were
| figured solidly for ToWne found
upon investigation that to elect him
would be suicidal to their interests
and in consequence his loss in that
county alone amounted to something
like 1900 votes, figuring on a basis Of
the 1896 vote. His gain in St. Louis
county was due wholly to his personal
popularity and a few personal diff
ferences.
The Duluth Herald, of course, after
election was compelled to swallow
some of its political representations
and by the looks Of its columns, they
do not set well on its stomach. Not
only the Herald, but the Tribune and
several of the local papers of the
Mesaba range have a severe dose OF
bile on the stomach which will not be
| removed until another campaipn rolls
