Ore RatesOnce Mere.

The ST. Paul papers say the ore
roads have executed a very clear
flank movement on the railroad and
warehouse commission.
They have entirely abandoned their
contention of last year, that they are
not common carriers of ore. They
have absolutely surrendered on this
proposition, and have filed their
tariffs with the commission. acknow-
Lodging it's authority over business
that begins and ends in Minnesota.
These tariffs appear to be only a
bluff, however. 1t is expressly stated
on each tariff sheet that the rates
only apply to business beginning and
ending within the state. They do
not apply to ore delivered at the docks
for lake transportation. The tariff
filed by the Duluth. Missabe & North
ern make the rate of so cents per
gross ton to Duluth (Missabe juno
tion.) It is 80 cents from Tower and
common points and IL from Ely.
This is the same rate that the com
pany formerly had on file with the
commission, for all ore delivered al
! Duluth. The way the tariffs read

Van Hook Killed,

1t was with the deepest sorrow,
the many friends of e. Il. Van Hook,
formerly telegraph operator in this
city, were appraised by wire of his
tragic death Saturday evening.
1t seems that evan" as he was
Familiarity known, was standing on
the rear end of a caboose attached to
a train backing into the station when
the train broke in two. The break
set the air and caused a jolt which
precipitated the unfortunatem man onto
the track. His neck was broken in
the fall besides several wheels passed
over one side of his face.
ivan" had been braking only this
season, he having formerly been EN-
ployed by the company as operator at
various places on the line. Six
months ago he was married to Miss
Pearl GlassfOrd. formerly of this city
and who is thus early in existence
and after short married life made
widow. The friends of Mrs, Van
Hook in Ely, and they are many
extend her their most heartfelt
sympathy. The parents of deceased
reside at Rochester, Mimi.

Has No Fears.

A business associate of Mr.. Pierpont
Morgan in the United States Steel
corporation said to a London news
paper man that the corporation did
not care a brass farthing for the Nor
way iron ore deposits and Mr.. Edison's
process. We know all about the
scheme" he declared, "and are not
afraid of it. Mr.. Edison's method is
all very well in a small way. but when
it comes to fighting the consolidated
steel mills Of America it is impossible.
So there is eighty million tons of that
kind of ore in sight in Norway!
Don't forget that in the Superior
region. controlled by us, there is eighty
times eighty million tons in sight Of
high grade ore, which is being shovel
ed out by shiploads. The United
States Steel corporation studied the
iron map of the world before it went
into commission. What England
wants is not eighty million tons Of
Norway ore, but few million large
calibre, high velocity workmen like
they make in America and Germany"

Large Timber Deal.

One of the largest timber deals
that has taken place in Northern
Minnesota for long time was con-
summated last week, when Cook &
furnish, j ohnMcAlpineand associates
disposed of pine lands in st. Louis and
Lake counties which aggregated
about no, 100000 feet and which was
sold for nearly 81 100000. The timber
was bought by the Brooks Timber
company and William O'Brien. The
Brooks Timber company is the pine
land corporation of the Brooks-Scan-
Ion company and the Scanlon-Gipson
company. The timber tract is the
same one that has been reported sold
on several other occasions, but this
time the transfer has actually been
made. The fact that the sales had
been made was known in Duluth for
some days past, but those interested
in the deal here would not confirm it
until Saturday night.

FOR THE STATE
The Mineral Leases Have Proven a Bon
ANA For Minnesota.

The Mineral Leases Have Proven Bon
ANA For Minnesota.
The extention of the iron belt in
the northern part of the state by dis
cOveries and the systematic working
of the field by large corporations had
the effect of giving speculative value
to the mineralf leases issued by the
state. The mineral leases are sold by
the state for 1926 each. Before the
era of immense development, persons
owning land held it at figures which
made the leases appear too costly.
When the new combinations enter
ed the field and the value of the land
rapidly rose, the state leases already
outstanding also rose. An instance
of this was shown recently when q
man. who possessed five leases for
tracts of lands for which he paid S25
apiece, sold them for $3.50 each.
Under the law these leases good for
one year are obtained from the state
auditor. Before the expiration of
the lease the lessee is entitled, upon
the payment of 800 and 800 yearly
in advance until railroad is built
within one mile of the place to obtain
a mining contract good for fifty years.
Within five years after the complet-
ion OF such road the lessee is requir-
ed to move at least 1000 tons of ore,
and Hereafter at least 5000 tons yearly
On this minimum output and upon
all ores mined the lessee is required
to pay to the state royalty of %
cents a ton.
Since 1889 when the law went into
effect, 1884 leases have been issued
bringing to the state in revenue
$74,S5O. During the year until July
10Th, leases were issued bringing in
$4,525. During the past year fifty
one fifty-year mining leases have been
issued. The total number mining
contracts outstanding is 113. These
yield to the state 800 d year each.
Some idea of the advance in north
ern fields since the present system
was commenced may be had from the
comparison of the receipts this year
and last from leases, contracts and
royalties. The receipts from these
sources for the year ending July 81,
1901, will be about S2O,779
The income of the state from min
eral lands has been S467 .6S2 since
1889 There are now seven contracts
in effect which pay royalty, six of
which pay the minimum of $3.50.
The Oliver mine alone has paid $685.

they are of no value, as no ore is now
hauled to Duluth. except for delivery
to the docks. 1t is one point gained
for the independent mine owners,
however, They cannot be taxed a
higher rate for the railroad maui than
the local rate to Duluth, and if the
reduces this local rate, it
will be to their advantage. Through
the interstate commerce commission
they can obtain the same rate for lake
business
