at the usual morning service, which
was held in the court house The
members OF John S. Marsh Post
mustered little over thirty this
year, and their grizzled locks and
army blue coats were suggestive of
permanent association of the .'blue
and the gray, which will continue
until the last of the veterans an
swers the final roll call. The ladies
of the Relief Corps marched in the
same procession, as usual, and the
two organizations were given seats
of honor on opposite sides of the
rostrum. The latter was draped in

y of the Burmeister Dam.
The waterin the lake reached the
crest Of the Burmeister dam on Sun.
day morning, the height Of the dam
at that point being a little over q
inches. On Sunday and Sunday
night the water raised another foot
and reached the top Of the two by
six planks placed on the crest of the
dam for height of about one foot.
Slash boards to the height Of two
additional feet are to be placed on
top of the planks, in order to give
the water the required height Of 30
feet.
On Friday a large crew Of men
and teams moved onto the tract of
Joseph Tyson, known as Easedale
Park, and commenced cutting off
the trees, and grading down the
high points, under the direction Of
Mr.. Tyson. Nearly all the trees
were cut down; and quite a bit Of
grading was done before the rain of
Friday afternoon set in. The rain
of that afternoon and early Saturday
morning, however, raised the water
to such an extent in the lake that it
practically flooded the ground where
the work was being done, and made
it impossible to continue the work
to any extent on Monday morning.
Andersen's Island is point on
the Hotchkiss tract, conceived by
N. B. Andersen, who had charge of
the large crew OF men and teams
during most of last week. The
crew was at work cutting down the
high points on the mill and Hotch-
kiss lots. One high point was
saved by Mr.. Anderson for an Is
land. The teams were set to work
grading around this, and the water
will be three feet or more around
this point when Mr.. Andersen gets
through with the grading. Mr.. An
dersen will beautify the island with
flowers, plants, etc.
The timber and brush, including
gooseberry bushes, etc., we're cut
off the overflow rights on the Hotch-
kiss tract last Wednesday, showing
how far the water would overflow.
Since that time, by reason OF the
heavy rains, the water itself, is
very near the outer overflow line,
and makes an expanse of more than
quarter OF mile from the bath
pool to the west shore line.
On Monday the city commenced
work on grading the road to the
power house. This work carries
with it the grading all around the.
power house, including the con-
struction OF breakwater, which
will prevent any damage to the
power house, by reason of increas-
ing the water in the dam to the full
heighth of 30 feet.
Mr.. Burmeister tapped the lake
slightly Friday evening, but not
enough to prevent an increase in
the height of the pool At the
bathing pool the water is now near
ly high enough for swimming pur-
poses.

pear that the Eastern Railway of Min
nesota (Great Northern) stands well up
among the leading iron ore interests.
and if the iron deposits not yet opened
for mining were taken into account
the Eastern Railway would probably
stand second only to the United States
Steel Corporation.
When Mesabi iron ores first came
on the market it was not found prac,
ticable to use more than 33 per cent
of them in furnace charges, for the
reason that, because of their soft
character, they packed in the furnace
Since that time the percentage used
in the furnaces has steadily increased
until at the present time the average
furnace mixture contains As per cent
Of Mesabi iron ore and IS per cent of

Iishcd few words on the blind pig
question and has raised u storm of
protest in range citizens. The Her.
aid intimated that reign of terror
existed in the range towns and that
the authorities and influential people
wore incapable of unfolding theirend.
According to the article one would be
led into the impression that mobs
ruled the towns, when in fact it is a
regrettable truth that more mob rule
does not exist and thus help out the
range towns against the inaction OF
the laws in such cases made and pro-
yided. A hanging or two would have
a tendency to stop this promiScous
shooting and cutting. Weadmit that
the blind pigs are nuisance and an
abomination, but SO far no effective
means have been devised whereby an
end can be put to them. We have
suggested plan heretofore that we
think might prove practical and that
is for the mining companies to refuse
to allow them to exist on their prop.
erty. The Herald has a peculiar
habit of fiinging slurs at the range
towns which cannot be overlooked.
The reason probably is that by raising
the cry OF 'stop thief" the fact that
it is overlooking affairs nearer home
will be lost sight of.

entire vote polled. The honor is de-
served as Mr.. Morcom is one of the

CUBAN SANITATION.

The ominOus report is renewed that santa
tion is being neglected in Cuba. In Havana IT.
self there is said TO he perceptible decline i'm
efficiency, while in Santiago and other cities
conditions are described as almost as bad as
before the American occupation. The latter de-
scrption is perhaps a bit exaggerated The
permanent improvements made by the Ameri-
would make ii impossible for those places
so soon TO fall into anything like as vile state
as they We're in before the war. Nevertheless.
the best of plants will deteriorate unless II is
properly used and maintained, and il would be
quite possible for those places within year TO
get into a condition inviting pestilence and
menacing health.
For such retrOCression. If it is actually Oc-
curing, there are two major reasons, though no
excuse. one is that the Cuban people have not
as a whole yet been educated up 10 our sani-
tary standard or up TO the necessity of keeping
their ports and cities in a condition not only fit
for native residents, but also fit for foreign
visitors. Too many of them still say 'the old
way was good enough for us. We do moi get
yellow fever, If strangers who come here do get
lit, that is their lookout. We are not going 10
exert and discOmmOde ourselves and spend a
lot of money for something which we do not
need just for the good OF strangers" The
other reason is that-largely because of the
