Butler Il Ryan have lost no time in
taking action upon the effort of the
city to prevent them taking sand from
Minnesota point, and yesterday filed in
district court a petition for u man
danus compelling the board of public
works to consider and grant their APP
plcation to be allowed to eXcaVate
and remove sand therefrom.
The case is entitled the state of Min
nesota ex rel the Butler Ryan COM
pany VS.. John Flood. Charles w. Will
son and William Butchart, as members
of the board of public works. The in
strument states that the Butler Ryan
company is a corporation organized I'M
in government and other contract work:
that they are now engaged in fulfilling
a contract for the United States gov
eminent upon the ship canal at Duluth;
that it employs large number of men
and is under bonds to speedily perform
he said work; that a considerabl
amount OF sand is needed in the carry
ing on Of the work and that some time
ago it purchased the right to remove
sand from lots 113 and IT'S on Lake
avenue. Upper Duluth, on Minnesota
point; that after purchasing such right
the city council amended an ordinance
which prohibits the removal of sand
and soil from Minnesota point with
out permission from the board OF public
works, which amendment covered the
lots from which the company had Sc
cured the right to take sand, and the
board of public works had refused per-
mission when asked to allow the removal
Of such sand. The petition states that
the removal Of sand would be no detri-
ment either to Minnesota point or the
harbor, which facts the company asks
leave to show. Wherefor they ask for
mandamus to compel the board to
hear and grant their request to be al
lowed to obtain sand under the rights
they have purchased upon the lots
named.

1t was definitely decided yesterday at
the meeting of the Democratic county
committee that the caucuses of that
party will be held on the 29th and the
convention on the 3Oth,a day in advance
Of the caucuses and convention of the
Republicans. The matter was gone
over thoroughly by those present and
that was considered the best plan.
Every Democrat present expressed
himself as pleased with the outlook for
the coming campaign and expressed the
opinion that there was a better chance
for the success Of the ticket this fall
than is usual in this section of the
state. It is very probable that the en-
tire county ticket will be renOminated
and others selected to fill places now
held by Republicans, thus completing
the ticket.
More Candidates.
Yesterday the candidacy of T. L. Nc
Intosh for the nomination in the Sec
ond assembly district was made public
and there seems; to be sentiment that
he will be strongly supported both for
the nomination and the election in case
he is successful in the former. Some
of the best Republicans in the city ex-
pressed satisfaction when they learned
that he would enter the race, as they
considered him an especially fit man
for the place. Mr.. Mcintosh was city
attorney for two terms under Mayor
Dietrich and proved to be a most eff
cient officer Some expressed the be-
lief that Irvine Lenroot would withdraw
from the race in case Mr.. Mcintosh
should announce himself as candidate
as they said he had only gone into 1t
in the first place because there seemed
to be no one after the position.
Judge G. B. French is an avowed
candidate for the office Of clerk OF the
courts and will seek nomination IN
the Republican convention for that
office. Mr.. French has been Ill for
several days and has not made much
of an effort thus far, but he will be In
the field from this time on.
Mixed Affair.
In relation to the question as 10
whether the assembly or county COM
mittee is the proper one to call the as
sembly convention there is no change
and the matter is as badly mixed as
ever. The old assembly committee does
not seem to have "subsided" any and
may issue another call as has been
threatened. The law is perfect mud
die so far as the calling of an assembly
convention is concerned, but there
seem to be some grounds for the con-
tention that it must be the assembly
committee which has the power IN ques-
tion. For instance, there are parts OF
two counties in some assembly districts
and in such neither committee would
have power over but, half of the district
and there might be a conflict as 10 the
time when the convention was 70 De
held. =, On the, other hand, nothing IS
said about an assembly committee ana
so the county committee took the mat

Three Fingered Stranger Won the
Pot in Poker Game.
Have l ever been west of Chicago p"
said the man who had just been listen
ing to some hair-raising stories of
Western life. why, yes, I took a. fly
ing trip across the country once and
that reminds me of a little incident that
happened to a friend who Travelled
with me on that occasion. Ny friend,
whose name was Jim Harding, was
something of sport and pretty lucky
chap, but he knew when the odds were
against him and was not looking for
unnecessary trouble However, when
our train was laid up in Dodge City,
hans., because of a railroad wreck
there, Jim decided to see a. little of the
town. He was not long in scraping ac-
quaintance with some fellows who were
fond of poker.
Jim and his new acquaintances
found quiet place, where they opened
mp game. Luck seemed to be against
jim from the start. Two pair mines
high, made the best hand he held and
the other fellows didn't do a thing but
Jim watched them narrowly for in
dlcatlons OF crookedWork, but he
couldn't Sc a thing out of the way ex-
cepting the fact that the other fellows
especially one of them, got the cards.
The lucky man was minus a finger
and by and by Jim noticed through the
space left by the missing finger, that
the man, who was Vis-a-vis at the
table, kept q card out when the pack
was shuffled. Thus his hand contained
six cards instead of the customary five.
jim decided to say nothing until there
was big pot at stake. Then he
thought he would close in on the three
fingered gentleman and claim the pot
by virtue Of his opponents holding a
foul hand. His opportunity was not
long in arriving. The thre-fingered man
evidently thought he had sure thing
and everybody dropped out of the game
excepting him and Jim. The two men

VIII Soon Re Running.

1t is expected that as soon as there
have been several days of warm
weather the Mitchell & Mcclure mill
will resume operations, it now tram
spring that the extreme humidity dur
ing the past week was as much re-
sponsible for the temporary cessation
of work as anything else. 1t may not
be known generally that damp muggy
weather has a very damaging effect
upon the sawmill industry. Such is
the case nevertheless. There is a
large amount of sap in fresh cut lumber
which produces certain process of
fermentation when the lumber is piled
In damp weather. This process will
ruin good lumber and for that reason
it was deemed advisable to close down
for a few days. Mitchell & McClure's
mill will, it is expected, be running
soon with two crews. The manufac-
turers have never experienced so much
trouble with the ''steaming," as it is
called. as they have this summer The
boards become black and those that
would sell for $50 per thousand would
not be- worth but $40 for the same
amount. Manager Conklin said yester-
day that if another load was not sent
down the lakes the mill could be kent
cutting for another month as far as
the dock room is concerned.
The st. Louis mill shut down We'd
nesday night on account of the lack of
logs. The mill will have plenty of logs,
however. within the next few DAYS. as
the rain has done much good in the
matter Of rafting their logs on the
Nemadii river.
