ANNUAL SCHOOL MEETING.
The Annual sahool Meeting Takes Place
Satu day at the School House.


District No. L. will be called upon
10 elect an entire new set of officers,
viz: Director, Clerk and Treas urer, at
the ochool meeting Saturday evening.
Director Brownell and Clerk Scheaffer
have resigned their positions, the res
ignatiens To take effect as soon as
their SUCCESSORS are elected and quail
fed. The reasons given by these Off
GERS for resigning is their inability to
find time to properly conduct the
affairs of their Offices in addition TO
their daily vacations
While it is pretty well known that
the designations have been turned in,
So far no one has volunteered to be-
come candidate for director and
clerk. For Treasurer, we understand,
there are two in the field. ii. Van
Blarcom and M. E. Gleason. Both
are excellent men and are qualified TO
fill this responsible position. In get
ting the views Of various people on
the subject 1t is the universal opinion
that all the officers should receive
some compensation for their labors.
The treasurer at present is the only
one who receives any remuneration
and his salary is voted by the annual
meetings. The treasurer this year
will be required to give $40. 900 bond
and therefore requires a good man.
Either of the two candidates men
toned is the proper party. Judge
Van Blarcom has made an excellent
member Of the school board and held
the position off and on for many years.
While these names are mentioned
by outsiders, it is not generally known
| whether either will make the run.
| We have heard neither declare him.
self positively. The positions OF direc-
tor and secretary are not SO eagerly
sought after owing to the absence OF
any salary attachment, yet these
offices are not of a secondary nature.
The meeting Saturday night will
have the work of choosing these Off
GERS and It should be done well.
The question of more school room
will also be brought up as stated in
the call. This vii probably mean
the erection of another school house
The population of this city during the

Were Heavy.

Shipments of ore from the entire
Lake Superior region for the month of
June were ., g., S94 gross tons. This
is at least 400, 900 tons short Of the
estimated shipments as it was con-
idently expected that the June ship
ments this year would not be short
5000, 900 tons. Comparing the figures
with those Of last year Duluth, Two
Harbors, Marquette and Escanaba
show gains but Ashland and Glad
stone fell far behind. The total
movement from the opening of nayi-
CATION the first is 4,742. 96l tons,
against 4,6l2, 173 on July l 1898. The
increase for the season is over 100, 900
tons and is remarkable in view of the
fact that navigation opened about
three weeks later than in 1898 Ship
ments for June were 100000 tons
greater than in May, when 2,l2O,lll
tons were moved and in order TO meet
the estimated seasons shipments of
of Il, 900, 600 tons the monthly ship
will have TO be upwards of 1000, 900
tons.
The demand for grain carriers at
this port has made offerings Of ore
tonnage light all over the lake. Vessel
men are trying to force the rate up To
