AS will be observed we have consider
abfe advertising just now. The matter
being IN the Supreme Court for long
time caused those holding certificates
procured at the 1900 forfeited sale to
hold them. The decision having been
rendered together with the interest
which is being taken in land here is the
cause Of 80 many notices Of expiration
of redemption being issued jlst now.
There have been numbe r of large
deals in timber made in the county late
ly. The Wright & DAVIS tract in $50
west, has been sold to Rupp & Kerr, of

luth, for consideration as shown by the
deed which has been recorded of $50, 1000.
Among other instruments which have
been recorded, Alice S. Mckinley and
others have sold to John McAlpine pine
on lands in Gil west, for ST., 1000
Lynch, Pagan & Howe have sold to the
North Shore Lumber Co. tracts Of pine
!. in 63.3 west, and 63-2 west, for$l5,O 4O.
It is reported that the Booth Co. is
figuring on more commodious boat fol
the North Shore run, and that the Argo
is to be put on the South Shore. The
Argo has been big Improvement over
the Dixon, but owing to the large mum
Der of Twin City excursionists the North
Shore people have had more difficulty il
securing accomod ations than they die
on the Dixon. We believe that the
Booth Co. desires to continue their poll
cy OF extending every courtesy to the
shore people, who are the regular pat.
IONS, but there seems to be q general
impression that their ernploye who
looks after the comfort of the passeng:
ers does not consider that the people
that live in Duluth and on the NORTH
Shore have as good money as others.
