II BUILDING BOOM


'The busy and growing town of
Hibbing is in the same position
Eveleth was a while back" said
Capt. NJ. L. Fay, of Virginia, at the
St. Louis this morning. "It is sur
rounded on every side by iron ore,
and there are even deposits under
its houses that may necessitate it's
removal some time, though the
change is not imminent. The min
eral rights to the townsite have
been reserved, and sometime 1.-The
owners of the rights will be after
the ore. The town is growing with
great rapidity, but there is always
present fear that the mineral that
underlies the town will be called
for, and this lends an atmosphere
of uncertainty to it that is uncom-

would like to make permanent i'm.

NEXT YEARS. PROSPECTS,

"The United States Steel corpora
tion will do more mining in Mime
sofa next year than ever BEFORE"
Thus spoke James w. Gayley, of
New York, vice president of the
company, when seen by a represen-
tative of the News Tribune last
night.
"Will we have any new mines?
Yes, the company will have two or
three new ones in operation next
year."
Mr.. Gayley said further that the
trip here was one of inspection and
that there was nothing of special
importance to announce. He said
that he had been entertained most
royalty at the banquet given in the
evening for himself and party by
Mr.. and Mrs. A. B. Wolvin and thai
he had been having a good time
getting acquainted with Duluth and
ito people.-News Tribune.

A Winner in the Fight for the
School Treasurership by a
Large Majority.
AN ENORMOUS VOTE CAST.

The annual school meeting of Dis
trict No. 22, held at the second ward
building in this city Saturday after
noon was unquestionably the warm

of the district. The interest was
was due in great measure to the
contest for the Office of school treas
urer, however, rather than an abid-
ing interest in educational matters,
as evidenced by the fact that many
of those who exercised the inalien-
able suffrage of American citizen
ship were unable to understand an
Interrogation as to their name, when
asked in English.
The meeting organized at the
High School building by the elec-
ton of the Hon. Chas. E. Nelson as
moderator, DR.. c. w. Miller and w.
E. Hannaford as judges, while D. E.
Cuppernull and Frank Green were
chosen clerks. The meeting was
then adjourned to the second ward
school building, where the polls
were opened and the rush was on,
475 ballots being cast the first hour,
and continuing with unabated zeal,
the ballot at the close showing a to-
tai of 1 ,131 votes, of which Robert E..
Bailie received 500 and William !.
Moore 432-a majority of 267 tor Mr..
Bailie.
At the close of the polls the an
nual meeting was held, the report
of Treasurer Moore being read and
accepted, the salary of the clerk for
the ensuing year being fixed at 500
per month and the commission of
the treasurer being placed at 2 per
cent. The publishing of the pro-
ceedings of the board for the ensu-
ing year was again awarded to The
