DULUTH LUMBER DISTRICT.
Ashland Men Invade It on the East-Will

Duluth, Minn., Nov. 14.-Ashland
men are invading the Duluth lumber

north shore OF Lake Superior, TAX

Knight has just returned from a
trip to the woods, where he is max
ing arrangements to begin work. A
contract for logging 30O,0O0,OOO feet
has been given Miller & Gould of this
city, and they are now taking in
men. The work will last from ten
to fifteen years. The timber is To-
Gated on the Gooseberry river, east
of Two Harbors, and most of this
contract can probably be taken out
without the use Of a logging rail-
way. Miller & Gould will operate
four camps OF 100 men each this win
ter and will cut nearly 100000 feet
in the season. The Gooseberry logs
are large and the tow across the
lake to Ashland is not long.

DIVIDE THE GROSS EARNINGS TAX.

Brainerd Dispatch: The Du-
luth Herald devotes a great
deal of space recently in discus
sing the gross earnings tax law.
The Herald is not opposed to
the theory but considers the
present law bad because it does
nor provide for a distribution of
the tax among the several
counties of the state according
to the proportion of railroad
property each contains. The
Herald is right on the question.
The system should be changed
for the direct tax system o.
amended as the aldindicates.
It is not right that a community
with large railroad holding
should be compelled to furnish
fire and police protection for
the raj road property and re
ceive no revenues therefrOm in
return. The Herald says sim
liar laws have been held uncon-
stitutiOnal in other states for
this very reason, and believes it
would here if tust was made.
If the gross earnings system is
to be maintained the Legislature
should apportion the tax re-
ceived therefrom to the several
counties, so that it can be
divided into the city, town and
school fund, and not used ex-
clusively for state purposes.

CLAIM A BREACH OF AGREEMENT
German & Jacobson Sue the Chicago Cloth
ing Company on an Alleged Agree
ment to Purchase Its Stock

An action was brought in the dis
trict court Wednes day by the firm
of German & jacobson, the horse
traders, against the Chicago Cloth
ing company, for an alleged breach
OF an agreement on the part OF the
defendant. German & jacobson
claim to have accepted the .offer of
Edgar Ruebel, the manager of the
Chicago Clothing company's store,
to buy the entire stock at a certain
percentage of the cost price, and
that the inventory was taken and
that only the adding up Of the figures
to ascertain the total amount to be
paid and the paying over of that
sum remained to complete the deal.
When they called upon Mr.. Ruebel
to complete the deal he refused to
accept the money. They immedt-
ately brought action to recover the
difference between 65 cents on the
dollar, for which price they claimed
to have bought the stock, and the
original cost price, which they claim
the stock was worth to them.
Mr.. Ruebel states that he had
some talk with German & jacobson,
but no agreement had been reached.
He also had been negotiating with
others for the purchase OF his stock,
and had come as near reaching an
agreement with the Others as he had
with German & jacobson. He con-
siders it a strange proceeding.
German & Jacobson estimate the
amount of goods that they claim to
nave purchased at $500, and are
therefore suingto recover IS per cent
OF this sum, which would amount to
$40. They also claim that Ruebel
offered to give them $50 to settle the
case. Attorney A. P. Blanchard
represents the plain tiffs and Attorney
F. A. Lindbergh has been retained
by the defendant. The case will
be tried before Judge Searle on
December 5.

State of Minnesota cannot con-
sistently criticise a public officer
who swipes public funds for his

lie Examiner Pope being pro-
lection to the state, he is, by
his example, a positive injury.
The only way he could be of
benefit would be for Gov. Lind

His example is such that he
cannot be safely retained. But
would he be apt to select any
better man next time?

Real Meaning of the Present Cordial

From Chicago Inter Ocean: Count
Cassini merely confirms the belief of

equivocally that the much-talked-of
movement for a concerted protest by
Europe in favor of Spain during the
recent war is a pure myth. And il
there was no such movement it fol-
lows that there could have been no
"peremptory refusal" on the part of
Great Britain to join it. Hence the
ef1uslYe gratitude evinced in some
quarters toward our English cousins
Is based upon nothing at all. England
didn't back US up because no one had
any idea of menacing us. Perhaps II
all continental Europe was against us
England would Join in n prove the
loudest in d%enouncing us.
The growth OF this idea that Great
Britain stood our friend in our recent
quarrel and that she saved us in some
vague way from all sorts of impending
dangers Is a puzzling and inexplicable
phenomenon. 1t is an insult to the
power and prestige of the flag of our
country. Yet we have had all sorts
OF sentimental exhibitions on 10Th
sides of the water-effusive gratitude
on our side and complacent generosity
on the other.
1t may be and it probably is true
that Great Britain hoped to see us win
not out of any alturian feeling, but
because of the muddle in the far east.
Confronted there by Russia, Germany
and France, she welcomed the appear

Fitted Under Difficulties.

An English wal correspondent in a
Cuban prison sent for a tailor to make
him a suit of clothes, but on the arrival
of the man of the shears the prisoner
found he could only consult with him
through the bars, and had to stand
quite close to them to be measured. In
a few days, however, the tailor again
appeared on the scene with the gar
ments cut out and pinned together for
fitting on, and this he accomplished
by stretching his arms through the
window bars as before until the "ft'
was to his mind correct. When the
correspondent came to wear this extra
ordinary suit a short time after he
found it most satisfactorily, and we'll

worn in London now with much pride.
