We find that all reports and representa-
tons made by Mining Engineer Stoess
and the Company, have been reliable and
conservative, and that General Manager
Goodrich and Superintendent Stoess are
capable and experienced men. who en-
joy the respect and confidence of their

We are strongly impressed with the
wonderful mineral resources of the Occur

promising property. No salaries are paid

instructed to draWra warrant for trifie

neither the deeds or fthe releases had
been filed with the register of deeds as
required, but the delay. it is thought, is
only temporary. County Auditor Kane
was informed yesterday that some of .he
occupants of theh buildings on the plat
had commenced To move, but there are
others WHO demand the full ten days
argeed upon. 1t is questionable whether
the county will obtain possession of the
LioDcrty before the first of June
Orally the commissioners lave an
agreement with Contractor Donenue that
there will practically be no claim for
damages owing to the delay, but despite
this some expense has been incurred by
the contractor and there is a general
opinion that reimbursement will be de-
manded.

TO HONOR DEAD HRI)ES
GOV. VAN SAINT HAS ISSUED MEMO
RIAL DAY PR0CLAMA-
TION
NONE TO BE OVERLOOKED
All the Graves of Departed Warriors
Are to Re Suitably Decorated
With Flowers Legal
Holiday Ordained.

Gov. Van SAINT yesterday issued his
Memorial day proclamation, setting
apart Thursday, May 80. as the day Tor
all citizens OF the state to observe by
decorating the graves Of the nation
dead:
The proclamation reads:
"By state and nation a day has been
consecrated to the memory OF our heroic
dead. These men died that the nation
might live They not only saved the ma
ton, but shed their precious blood for
the dignity of American labor and the
welfare of the whole human race. There
fore let us demonstrate our gratitude
with appropriate ceremonies on this i'm
mortal day Their living comrades
should not be forgotten. When we see
the blue coat and the little brown button
let us recall the spirit that stirred In
the hearts Of these men when our union
needed defenders. Let US remember that
these heroes were as ready to die as
their brothers had the God of battles 50
decreed. Nor should we forget the brave
boys of 1855 who, true to the lessons
of their fathers, have carried the flag
Of freedom across seas. giving larger lib
erty. to many millions.
Let no soldiers grave be overlooked,
but gently and lovingly decorate every
tomb with the choicest offerings of spring
In this way We not only honor the dead,
honor ourselves, but teach in the most
impressive manner the lesson of pa
triotism so essential to national exist
ence. To this end let us observe as a.
legal holiday Thursday. the 20tn day of
May would recommend that all
schools. factories, mills and business
houses be closed, and that business Of
all kinds be suspended. Let us individual
ly make this day sacred 10 the memory
of those who iniperiled their lives for
the cause of humanity and the welfare
of our country"

LOCATION OF MINNESOTA TROOPS
AT VICKsBURG TO BE AS
CERTAINED
VETERANS WILL MAKE SEARCH
Ex-GOv. Hubbard and Col. BurIy
VIII Be Selected for the
Work by Gov. Van
SAINT.

Probably before tonight Gov. Van SAINT
will name the commission to ascertain
and exactly determine the location Of the
Minnesota troops at the siege of Vicks-
burg, as prescribed in bill passed by
the recent legislature.
This commission is to consist of four
members and they are to be chosen from
each of the regiments participating In
the notable siege of the Mississippi town;
the Third, Fourth and Fifth infantry
regiments and the First battery, Mime
sofa light artillery. The governor is not
yet prepared to announce who the men,
bers of this commission will be. but it is
safe to say that former Gov Hubbard,
| OF Red Wing, colonel of the old Third
regiment, will be one. and Col. Burly of
the battalion, now at Washington will
| be another. The act specifies that the
| commission shall be composed of mem
bers from those old regiments, privates
or officers. 1t is probable, however, that
those chosen will all be ex-ofticers if this
can be arranged satisfactorily.
The law prescribes that this commits
sion shall serve without pay, and an ap-
preparation of but $500 to defray neces-
sary expenses, was made.
/ The Minnesota troops were prominent
in the historic siege of Vicksburg. and
It has been the desire of the state for
some time to have the boundary lines
of their operations designated so that
succeeding generations might be in pos
session of them. The commission will in,
dictate these exact lines by some suitable
and substantial means and make their
report to the governor not later than
January. 1902 1t is probable the state
! will then take steps to erect a monument
Of some Citing character to commemorate
the brave deeds of her troops of '6l-'65
W hen the legislature took this matter UP
for consideration the very pertinent argu-
nlent was advanced that the work would
have to be done soon or the project
abandoned as not many legislatures
would convene before 1t would be nearly,
If not quite impossible to find any of the
old veterans there when the memorable
siege and battle took place who would be
available for this duty on the part of the
state.
Gov. Van SAINT is anxious to make MS
appointments at once so that 1t may be
possible for the commission to reach
Vicksburg by May 23. which is the an
niversary of the great charge of Union
troops AMI which is to be deliberately
commeInorated Hundreds of old soldiers
from various parts of the United Stctes.
who participated in this charge will be
present on that day. ard the governor
has conceived the idea that it would be
very appropriate and pleasant If the
Minnesota commission could also be pres
ent at the demonstrations. They would
no doubt, be able to obtain valuable in
formation which would be helpful to
them III ileir orlz from tECse there.
