Demonstration of Its Fitness For
Fuel Purposes.
NEW PROCESS IS CHEAP
COAL Is TREATED FOR THIRTY
CENTS PER TON.
Great Future Is Assured For the Iron
County Coal and Iron Fields
Colorado Company Has Tied Up a
Large Tract of Iron Lands
Bright Outlook.

Charles H. Kraft, who bears the dis
tinction of being the first man Il
demonstrate to a certainty that tn,
coal deposits of Iron county can b.
utilized for smelling purposes. and
therefore, made of great commercial
value, by the application of the Hem
ingway process for coking coal, the
patents for which are owned by L. z
Letter of Chicago, invited a few guests
to an exhibition at his home on east
Brigham street. yesterday. The visitors
included NJ. H. Walker, j. r. Walker
jr.. and ]. A. Silver.
Mr.. Kraft had fire burning in the
crate in the front room. the fuel sup
piled being the Iron county product
after it had gone through the Heming-
way process.
/ Mr. Kraft's object was to demon
strate to his guests that the fuel could
be utilized for household purposes as
we'll as for smelling. The fuel produces
soft blue flame, similar TO anthracite
coal and is entirely free from SCOT.
A Cheap Treatment.
The coal, so Mr.. Kraft says, can be
treated by the Hemingway process for
about 80 cents ton, SO to use the coke
for household purposes would not be
an expensive luxury. 1t takes. how
ever about two tons of coal to make
one ton of coke.
Mr.. Silver is anxious to make test
of the product at the Silver Brothers
boundary to see What can be done with
it in the way of smelling iron. Mr..
Kraft and Apostle Brigham Young,
who has worked with him in the enter
prise, saw thorough tests made with
the coke in the smelling of iron in
Chicago. -------'-
No date has been decided upon as
yet by Mr.. Silver, SO it is uncertain
just when he will make the tests at
his works .-....-.---.---.
The Mormon church owns about LOCO
acres of the coal lands in Iron county
and it is the desire of Apostle Young
that the church shall receive the bene-
fits from ii.
Market On the Coast.
Mr.. Kraft thinks the principal mar
ket for the coke in the future will be
on the Pacific coast and as there are
unlimited bodies of magnetic iron of
a high-grade near to the coal fields. he
feels certain the industry will assume
large proportions and eventually the
Pacific coast will become independent
OF the iron and steel plants of the east
1t is apparent too, that the Colorado
Fuel & Iron company, realizes the i'm
portance of southern Utah. While that
has been working very
quietly about 1T, as stated in The
Herald a short time ago, a representa-
tive of the company has been here and
has succeeded in tying up large tract
of the iron lands in the vicinity of
Cedar City. 1t has leaked out that
this representative has been kept busy
during the last few weeks. The state
ment was made yesterday that the
Colorado concern had expended al
ready $4,000 in securing options on
iron lands.
Local Manager De Vry disclaimed all
knowledge of it last night, but there are
good reasons to believe the story has
some foundation.

built up large and lucrative practice.
He is fortunate, however, in securing for
a partner in his profession such a dis
tinguished and brilliant lawyer as Mr..
Webster.
Here is what the Aberdeen Daily News
says of Mr.. Potter's removal from that
city:
When ex-State's Attorney H H Potter
went to Minneapolis, the first of the
week, there were very few who knew
what his mission was, and the people of
Aberdeen will learn with surprise and re-
gret that he has decided to locate in that
city for the practice of law. Mr. Potter
would have been as much surprised him
self had the suggestion been made to
him two weeks ago, because he was very
we'll satisfied with the large practice he
has built up here. He is nevertheless
going, and his family will remove to that
city before the LIST of October. About
ten days ago Mr.. Potter received a letter
from Edward E. Webster, who was the
Republican nominee for mayor of Min
neapolis last spring, inviting partner
ship, Mr. Potter to take the place of Mr.
Webster's deceased associate Mr.. Pot
ter's unsolicited selection from the great
number of attorneys in the Northwest
to take a partnership in an established
business so large is certainly a very high
compliment, and, while his Aberdeen
friends will regret to have him leave the
city, they will congratulate him upon
the opportunity he will be afforded in his
new field.
Mr.. Potter is now in Minneapolis, but
will return the first of the week to settle
his business here which Is in such shape
that he will not be delayed here very
long.

DR.. c. A. SChenck, superintendent of
the Vanderbilt estate at Biltnore. N g
has returned from his tour of the moth
woods with Prof. Green, of the state ag
licultural college, and Gen C. c. An
drews, Of the state forestry board. Dr.
Schenck was brought by the state for
estry board to lend expert advice to the
commission, which has under way the
framing of the forestry laws proposed
for the next legislature, he being one Of
the highest forestry authorities in the
world.

over 800 miles of forests We're covered
by the party of experts. Speaking on the
results of his observations, DR.. Schenck
said:
'It Is too early for me to give anv
definite proposals for forest laws. How
ever, the forest problem is a fire prob
lem The great thing that is needed and
the absolutely essential thing is fire nro-
lection The present laws are altogether
inadequate. We were deeply impressed
everywhere with the fact that roads fur

that the men who showed so much skill
in solving the problem of taking home
the members of the Thirteenth regiment
from Frisco should not be overlooked
when the time came. This, as all who
read the article know, was a quiet but
judicious way of telling the people Of
Minneapolis that Mayor Gray was worthy
of a denomination. 1t looked sometime
ago as If the party would give his honor
a denomination without contest, but
recently not few Democrats have been
found who are opposed to giving the mayor
a second term. These anti-administratIon
Democrats say that 1t would be unwise
to go against precedent; that with the
exception of ex-Mayor Pratt, whose per-
sonal popularity was not limited to his
party, no mayor has succeeded himself
in office in this city in the past eighteen
years, and If the party wants to succeed
next time 1t must select a new man. The
mayors friends, however, are confident
he will pull through, Notwithstanding the
opposition that has developed against
him.

CAUGHT AT THE HOME PLATE.

There Is a good deal of talk in Repub-
lican circles in Hennepin county over
the stand recently taken by local. pa
per on the judiciary question. Some time
ago this paper in question announced to
its readers that Judge Elliott, of the
district court, was, would be a candi-
date for the supreme bench, provided
vacancy existed. Shortly after that 1t
was said that Judge Simpson would also
be a candidate for the supreme bench.
Now there Is ''blood on the moon in the
office of Judge Elliotts organ because
Judge Simpson Is meeting with SO much
encouragement in his efforts for higher
judicial nonors. A couple of days ago
Judge Elliott gave the public to under
stand that he was not a candidate in
politicaF sense, as it was beneath the dig
nifty of jurist to go into that business,
etc. If Judge Elliott Is so sensitive
about putting himself forward for jul
dicial honors it is strange that he per-
mitted his organ to announce some weeks
ago that he was a candidate for the SUI
preme bench.
Anent Judge Elliott's candidacy for
higher honors it must not be forgotten
that his present term on the district
bench will expire a year hence, and that
he must either fish or cut bait" So
far as Hennepin county Is concerned the
coming distribution of judicial plums Is
not going to be a one-sided affair. Should
there be vacancy on the supreme
bench, Elliott and Simpson will both be
candidates, provided another county car
ries off the gubernatorial nomination.
Should Hennepin be given first place on
the ticket then Elliott will be a candi-
date for the position he now has on the
district bench. In the event of an out
side county carrying off the gubernatoriaI
nomination, Hennepin will expect to have
her strongest candidate named for ju-
dicial honors This will bring the tug of
war to be pulled off between Elliott and
Simpson. Popularity generally counts
except where the contest Is for 1.-The most
POPULAR, and hence 1t is that a certain
LEGAL paper is trying to make it's readers
believe that Elliott is a great jurist
worthy of higher honors As near as
the G o b can ascertain-and right here
The Saint Paul globe. (St. Paul, Minn.) 1896-1905, 1899-09-24

it might be said that we have no choice
so far as Republican candidates are con-
cerned-Judge Simpson can have any
thing he wants from his party in this
county. He is a very popular man, be-
sides being a good iurist. A Republican
is authority for the statement that ne Is
already the choice of his party for SUI
preme bench honors. There is no deny
ing the fact that his recent record on the
bench Of the Fourth judicial district mas
been an epviable one, and the Hennepln
bar. regardless Of the political faith or
it's members, speaks very highly of him.
Should no vacancy occur on the su-
preme bench-Justice Collins deciding to
remain where he is-Judge Elliott will be
a candidate for his present position. He
will not be nominated without contest,
as the numerous friends of Judge steele
are determined to place him In the posi-
ton now occupied by Elliott. Judge Steele-
is chairman of the Republican state CEN
trail committee, and has a host of friends
who are more than anxious to repay him
for his personal sacrifices last year in
the interest OF the ftepuDllCan state TIC
ket. Judge Steele was member of the
defunct city charter commission and did
more to have an ideal charter drawn up
for this city than any other member of
the commission. The proposed charter
was turned down, more because OF GER
tain radical features incorporated therein
than to any antipathy on the part of the
public to the political faith of the MEM
bers of the commission. Judge Steele
it Is said opposed these extreme meas
ures Incorporated In the new charter, but
when asked what he had to say about
this, said that as long as the charter had
not been adopted by the people 1t was a
dead measure, and he himself believed 1t
was better not to resurrect the subject
now Judge Steele will not admit he is a
candidate, but his friends say he will be
when the time comes. Should he decide
to enter the race against Elliott pool
sellers would make money on his candi-
dacy, If they found any takers.
A morning paper a few days ago in
directly informed its readers that the
voters of this city would be called upon
in less than year to select candidates
for the different municipal offices, and

same time in the development of the

protection should be the central features
Of all legislation in Minnesota.
LAS to how much of the country is fit
for second growth, feef sure it is nearly
10 per cent. Only about 80 per cent of
the cleared land will be profitable for
century yet for agriculture. Ali that 70
per cent of the cleared land of the north
ern woods should be at once put in trees.
With absolutely adequate fire protection
II will pay at present lumber prices about
per cent. The intermediate fands fit
for agriculture should be steadily cult

lection.
Or: Schenck will be a guest of the
forestry board for few days, when he
will make second tour of the woods as
the guest of the congressional committee
investigating the national park scheme.
