GOING AWAY,

Our citizens will regret tolearn
that the Rev. G.. H. Stevenson.
pastor of the M. E.. church here,
is about o leave the pulpit in
Eveleth for at least a couple Of
months. This conclusion was
reached By the reverend gentle-
men some time last week, when
word came from his wife ia Kan
sas that her! condition of health
was growing daily more serious
and that his whole time was
needed 10 her care. The pre-
siding elder of the district, Rev.
Robert Forbes will supply the
pulpit here each Sunday, either
by pastor from Duluth or else
where. s:s d j.
Mr.. Stevenson will not return
unless the condition Of Mrs.
Stevenson greatly improves that
she may be able to accompany
him. He will bear with him the
best wishes: of the community
who sympathize with him and
his amiable wife who lies quite
seriously il Eveleth Star. -

try the exports were twice as
great as the imports, and the ex-
ports o. manufactures exceeded
the imports OF manufactures.
The value of the expectations OF
the year was twenty per cent in
excess of that Of the great com
mercial year of 1892, and $780,
900, 900 greater than the greatest
previous year of our export
trade. The balance of trade in
our favor in the fiscal year jest
ended was 1915, 259, o24. as COM
pared with 1886, 1858, IA in 1897,

The Howe Lumber company,
Tower, Mimi, has recently com
pleted the work of preparing
several million feet of logs left
on skids last winter to withstand
the worms. The bark was first
peeled off and the logs were then
spread over with a large quanti-
ty of rock salt.
The fact that the Pullman
company has just declared a
regular dividend of 50 per share
and in addition Especial dividend
Of $40 per share, yet has on hand
still 100000 Of surplus as
sets, naturally suggests to the
public that now would be a fit
ting time for sleeping car rates
to be lowered to proper standard

own porters instead of COMPEL

From all points on the Mesaba

rent Of sentiment among repub
licans of all classes that lends
color to the prediction that the
republican county and legislative
tickets will net receive over
eighty per cent of the republican
vote Of the range this fall. The
cause of this revulsion Of feeling
is obvious, and warranted to a
great degree. The republican
machine of St. Louis county, run
by Jos. Sellwood and CREASED by
the corporations and parasitical
spap.suckers, saw fit to cast the
stone Of contempt at this. range,
and resentment Of such action
will be shown at thepolls. From
personal conversation with many
leading republicans, The Enter
prise can state that this feeling
extends to and embraces the en-
tire legislative and county tick

tofore been closely identified

republican organizations avow

everything bearing a republican
label, stating that q complete.

REPUBLICAN, srArE TICKET
WILL SACRIFICE H.IWKlNS.

WILL SACRIFICE HIWKINS.
The uiron combinations have
become frightened over the
prospect for the success of their
legislative ticket. They have
discovered that the boldness
with which they have played
their game this year has stirred
up a great sentiment against
them, and the strength which it
is attaining is staggering them.
Men who have always been
staunch in their support of the
party nominees are openly say
ing that they will not be held in
line on this proposition. So de
cided has this talk become that
the combine is preparing to save
what it can out of the wreck.
Hawkins, the senatorial candi-
date in the Fourty ninth district,
is considered to be practically
beaten already. His pretense of
having resided in the district is
so flimsy THAT men there wonder:
at the lack of sagacity displayed
in putting him up. He is there
now and may be at the other end
of the country tomorrow.
r. B. Daugherty's election,
however, the iron interests are
preparing to ''cinch" if it is pos
sible to do it, and one of the
ways IN whichit is to be done is
coming to light. AS is we'll
known, the voters this year will
have to have the qualifications
provided for in the constitution
al amendment adopted in 1896.
This means that they must be
full citizens Of the United States
three months before the
election There will be no more
Of the practice Of taking out
fresh citizenship papers and vot-
ing right away. Naturally, this
will result in cutting the vote
on the iron ranges heavily. The
vote in Ely will be just a little
over half of what it was. and that
in Soudan will decrease fully as
much. Now, Soudan is; in Mr..
Daugherty' 5 district, and to cut
down the vote there Will lessen
his chances. The iron combine
has therefore decided to sacrifice
Hawkins to insure Daugherty's
safety. s The Minnesota Iron
company has a large force at the
Fayal also. It is now engaged
in wedding out the men there
who are voters and transferring
them to Soudan, taking the men
there who are not voters over to
Fayal to replace the others.
This appears to be very clever
scheme in one way, but how do
Mr.. Hawkins and friends like it.
This is not the only reason for
the transfer, however. At Sou
dan the Minnesota company con
trolls its man absolutely and
votes.them as it Wills without re-
gard TO their preferences. It
controls everything the judges
of election, clerks and all the
machinery Of the election. To
Fayal i has not this absolute
sway, and in this fact comes the
other reason for the changing Of
the men. It cannot control them
so easily there as at Soudan. Of
course this change will not effect
the county ticket. the voters
merely beng shifted from one
precinct to another, Evening
