Meuntain Iron, Mahoning and Stew.
ensor1. The first two mentioned
have shipped m more than that much
:before, but the Mahoning and Stew.
ensoon have. that experience yet in
stpre. The Nahoning has been in
shape to forward 100000 tons or
more any season for several years,
butt is expected that the demand
f'.r this ore in 1902 will be such as
tocall for more than that amount.
.Ihe Stevenson is the newest mine
Of the four mentioned. It began
shipping late in the fall of 1900 and
last season sprang into prominence
fone Of the big ones, forwarding
666NO tons. The demand for Stew
erson ore was much heavier than
normal for the reason that some of
the contracts for Commodore ore
were filled from it.
{, The lowest estimate of the prob
able shipments of iron ore from
Minnesota this year are in the
neighborhood of 100000 tons. The
estimates are divided into 100000
tone from Two Harbors, 100000
tons from Allouez bay, and 100000
tons from Duluth. It is all head of
theslakes business and all the ore is
from st. Louis county. Mimi. This
aggregate amount will make it pos.
sib1e for the old mines to increase

HIS ASSAlIANTS CAUGHT.

AS Erick Carlson was vending his
way homeward at late hour Tues
day evening he was approached by
a pair of the strong arm gentry and
given a taste of the rough side of
life, the twain rolling him for the
munificent sum of $4.25, and leaving
him somewhat the worse for wear
as result of the encounter.
Officer Matson heard the cries for
assistance and responded quickly,
but not in time, the men finishing
their work and decamping as he ap-
preached. The men were known,
however, by the description given
by Victor Nelson and a gentleman
named Blender. who had sized them
up with suspicion in Rosson7 Co.'s
soloon just previous to the assault,
and who were on the scene in time
to assist Carlson to his feet.
Chief Wiggen located the men the
following day, one at Mountain
Iron and the other at camp north
of the city, both being taken into
custody.
Before Judge Nelson yesterday
they gave their names as Reinert
Heinze and John Beattie. In de-
fault of ST 900 bail they were bound
over to the grand jury and taken to
the county bastile by Chief Wiggen
today. Their prospect for several
years of contemplation and repent.

ACTIVELY At Work,

Exploring for iron ore on the
Mesaba range is being carried on
with more activity than ever. One
exploring firm working on that
range alone now has force of
about ECO men employed with some
Is to so drills in operation. There
is a constant call for additional
drills, and if they could lie furnish
ed many more would be set at work
Immediately. Conditions are such
that the exploring contractors will
not buy additional drills, but de-
mand that those wishing work done
shall provide their own machines,
which is having the effect of cur
failing the new work to some ex-
tent.
1t is probable that not less than
125 drills are now operating onethe
Mesaba range. The Minnesota Iron
company runs eight drills, all dia-
,nond, about the hard ore mines at
Soudan, Vermilion range, and the
Mahoning Ore and Steel company
is drilling with two machines be-
tween Soudan and Ely. Now that
the section 30 case is settle.. it is ex-
pected that lease will be made by
the owners to some operating COM
pany and that several drills will be
put to work to prove the value of
that much-fought tract.
The United States Steel corpora
tion's mines at Hibbing went into
the winter with clean stock docks
at all but the Day mine, where there
were 75,0CO tons on surface; at the
Clark. where there were about So
OCO tons; and at the Pillsburv.
which had small amount. The
mines of this corporation in that
district now work are the Hull,
Rust, Burt, Sellers, Pillsbury. Clark
and Chisholm. The latter two were
taken oyer Jan. from the Ameril
can Mining company, (the Aneri
can Steel & Wire company's minin{
corporation.) The Burt will be
practically new mine this yedr,
and the East Piilsbury will be an
addition to the group. This gro l,p
is good for almost any amount of
ore that may be asked of it, under
ground development being very
extensive. There are in the group
now ten operating shafts. Electric
tramming plants are being install
ed at some of the properties and
more will be and it is quite possible
that electricity will be used far
more extensively at these and other
mines before long.
AT the Stevens mine, work hae
been stopped for the winter and
nothing will be done until the frost
is out of the ground.
The Eastern Minnesota road
which has been exploring for some
time in section 1856 So, has found q
considerable depth of good ore un-
der more than 200 feet of surface.
This is one of the most westerly
finds of good ore made upon the
Mesaba range.
c. A. Congdon is exploring the
lands of the old Lackawanna COM
pany, in section 23. 57-22, where some
ore ore was found years ago under

son mine, on state lands.-Herald.

WRAT BECOMES OF. OUR GAME.

WRaT BECOMES OF. OUR CAME
An answer to the query is found
by a perusal of the action of dep
uty game warden of Grand Rapids,
who on Friday last found and seiz-
ed nineteen quarters of moose meat
in one of the camps of the Powers
& Simpson company, in Itasca Co.
This company is but one of many
extensive operators in the northern
nilaerias a1ad NE, Ee,zlItas.Jl zlIas.saJlieye but one of
many concerns whose camps have
been supplied with protected(?)
game until today there is but little
sport left in what was once the fin
est game section of the state.
In the case against Powers &
Simpson penalties aggregating
$500 could be imposed, but it is
understood the firm will fight the
prosecution on the ground that the
contra band meat was malicionsly
smuggled into the camp with
out the knowledge of themselves or
camp foreman, being a conspiracy
against them-but it looks from
this distance as though the conn.,
pany were parties to the conspiracy.
Game Warden Fullerton. however,
may be induced to see things as the
company desires, and fix them out
with a nominal fine.

4 MUzzLED .MIN0RIrK.

The wisdom of the action of Represent
ative Richardson in asking unanimous
consent to the passage of the tax repeal
bill will remain open to question, although
doubtless, under the circumstances, it was
the best course to pursue. 1t has become
impossible to secure proper consideration
of any measure whatever that the ma
jority may set its mind on passing. The
spirit and example Of a former czar OF
congress abides with his party colleagues,
and instead of being the most distinctive
ly representative national legislative
body in the world, as it should be, the
American house of representatives is lit
tie more than an instrument for record
ing the will of an arbitrary leadership
composed of the speaker, the ways and
means committee and the committee on
rules.
1t is against this condition of affairs
that the minority should have registered
its protest. Those on the ground know
more of the actual necessities of the oc-
casion than those, however well informed,
who are on the outside; but without be-
ing forced into the false position of op-
posing tax repeal legislation, it must con-
tinue to appear to those on the outside
that the Democratic minority could have
found some more effective way of signal
izing its disapproval than the somewhat
theatrical method adopted.
The question must be fought out sooner
or later. 1t may come when the Cuban
tariff bill comes up for consideration, or
when the Philippine tariff measure comes
back from the senate in amended form.
Whenever the occasion arises Democratic
representatives must bear in mind that
not the least of the enormities of imperi-
alism in actual operation is the one which
muzzles and renders impotent strong
minority, and which forces on the coun-
try any measure, however obnoxious,
without anything like adequate public
discussion.

PUGET SOUND LOOMING UP.

For the twelve months just closed, Ia
coma's ocean commerce exhibits the
marked growth of Al per cent over the
same period the year before. Specially
heavy are the gains of the past four
months. October, November and De-
cember successfully broke all records of
ocean trade volume. December did a busI-
ness equal to a three-months' trade OF
two years ago. Although January, 1901,
started in at pace which passed all pre-
cedent up to that time, January, lyO2,
goes Sc per cent higher in volume still.
Puget Sound numbering presents very
nearly as good a case as the ocean com
merce. The 500, 900, ,OOO-mark in the pro-
dUction Of lumber by the coast mills has
been passed during the twelve months
ending with Dec. 81, and sharp gain
is made over previous records Three
of the Puget Sound mills now saw an an
nual product of 100000 to SO,O09, 600 feet,
which marks them as among the big mills
of the country Ballard still leads the
world as a shingle producer, turning out
570,0O0,OO0 feet during the year. This prod
uct is now reaching all parts of the world,
a heavy installment coming down into
the prairie states of the Missori a7d
Central Mississippi valleys VIA the North
ern roads and the Burlington. IRON a
transportation standpoint, these lumber
shipments cut a large figure in the Pacific
commerce of the Northwest, by reason
of the fact that the trains which haul
Puget Sound lumber eastward return to
the coast laden with the produce of the
Mississippi valley for Oriental export.
In this regard, Puget Sound progress
means general development for the
Northwest. Minnesota dairy and meat
products, Twin City hardware, furniture,
machinery and miscellaneous merchan-
disc, all find representation in the ocean
commerce which passes Puget Sound,
bound for the Pacific shores of Alaska
and Asia.

WHAT VIII THE c.UcUe M

The temptation to bait the South Is
great, but so is the danger. The major
ity in congress would be glad to unf1rl
the bloody shirt once more They NAV
md courage enough to do so before long
Judging from the speed with which +ba,,
are rushing headlong into all sorts Of
excesses, the session will not end be-
fore they engage themselves in such an
undertaking.
AS purely party political proposition
The opposition should welcome such ac-
ton on the part of the majority. It will
prove political boomerang. It is not
yet ten years since the public sentiment
OF the nation was thoroughly aroused
against the enormity of the policy Of
batting the South. That sentiment has
not wholly subsided. Through its opera
tion the South has thus far been able.
with comparative immunity from abuse
and opposition, to work out her own So
elaI problem in her own way.
The constitutional conventions in the
South have operated in many cases to dis
Iranchlse the negro in the South for IL
hteracy, lack of property and other legal
disqualifications. To bring such cases
within the operation of the fourteenth
amendment it is necessary to assume
that the disfranchisement took place bv
reason of color.
Men are being disfranchised all over
this country. Some of them are deprived
Of their right to vote by their own sell
fish indifference to their duties as cit
liens. Others are disfranchised because
Of the gerrymandering abilities of the
politicians of their or the opposition
party, rs is notably the case with the
electors of a number of congressional
districts in this state, and as is the gen
eral result in the state of Connecticut.
Others again are disfranchised by the es-
tablishment Of educational or property
qualifications such as are established in
many Northern states, and ought to be
of universal application. It is only In
the South apparently, and among the
black race, that men can be disfran-
chised on account of color, notwithstand-
ing that in most cases they are too ignor-
ant to comprehend the simplest civic
duty, or are so poor and lazy that
continuous labor is an impossibility to
them
Whatever action the adjourned Repub-
hcan congressional caucus may take on
