WE note that two possible legis.
lative enactments of great interest
to Mesaba residents receiv the un-
divided support of the ran re press
and we believe will be pushed to
successful endings in the legisla-
ture through the efforts of our local
delegation-the bill providing for
sessions of the district court t
range points and the one making it
possible for the Mesaba to organize
as an independent county. The
business of these measures is un-
questioned, and we believe will be
permitted to pass the Legislative
body without organized opposition.

VIM. D. ELLSWORTH, the default
ing postmaster at Eveleth who al
leges that he lost several thousand
dollars of Uncle Sans money over
the green cloth, was on Saturday
delivered into the custody of the
county sheriff, three of his bonds
men, Messrs. Sax, Boldie and Sha-
piro, withdrawing from his bond.
The cause of this action is assigned
by Mr.. Ellsworth as the result of
his recent testimony relative to open
gambling before the grand jury,
but this imputation is strongly de-
MED by Mr.. Sax, who claims that
this matter did not enter into their
decision. Awaiting the making
and acceptance of a new bond Mr..
Ellsworth remains as a charge of
Sheriff Butchart. but it is anticipat-
ed that his term of incarceration
will be brief.
We note that Bro. Schaefer,
of the Ely Miner, states that
notwithstanding the overwhelm-
ing voice of the people two
years ago against county divis-
ion the matter hops up every now
and then. At present it is again on
the tapis-" Yes, Peter, it is. And
we believe it will see successful
finish. But the present proposition
need not worry Vermilion range
residents, as that territory is not
embraced in the new county as at
present proposed. The Vermilion
apparently desires to remain with
St: Louis unty, and the magma
nimity of Mesa bates is shown by
leaving that range out of present
considerations. We therefore see
no cause for objection to the pres
ent division proposition on the part
of our old range neighbors.

United States Should Control South
American Republics.

LONDON. Feb. 15,-The Daily TeIe-

the United States should establish pro-
tectorate over the South American re,
publics. saying:
The Monroe Doctrine involves that.
As things are. a distinct premium Is Of
fered to adventurous and irresponsible
persons who can boast OF ephemtTaI au.
thority in these republics TO play fast
and loose with their external obligations,
Some day or other citizens OF the
United States might be the victims and
then the Government at Washington
would find Itself confronted by an in
vidious dilemma Either II would have
70 put up with defiance OF be conIpe!Ied
TO adopt measures the employment OF
which It denied TO other powers similar
~ situated. Such position would COM
port neither with the dignity nor the in

American statesmen will take the prob
lem with all its complicated and en-
barrassing corollaries into most serious
consideration"

Exports Not SatisfactorY.

There are but two parts of the world
in which the exports from the United
States do not make satisfactory growth
they are South America and In
dia. The imports into the United
States from these countries are large
and constantly growing. The exports
from the United States TO South Amer
lea were, in 1890, S3S, 752, GiS and in 1902
$3S .O42.61 while the imports from South
America were. in 1890. $50 0O6. IA and in
1902 S7I9,735 100. The exports from the
United States 10 British East India were.
in 1890, S4,G55, 979 and in 1902 but $4.621.-
$40. On the other hand. the imports
from British East India grew from 500
S04,319 in 1890 to SfS42l .21S in 1902 The
absence OF growth in our exports TO
British India is tho more strongly
marked. because the importations into
India are steadily increasing. having
grown from Sl66 600 900 in 1850 to 1854
600 900 in 1902. What makes this still
more remarkable is that q large proper
ton Of tho articles imported into India
is of the class produced by the United
States, such as cotton goods. mineral
oils and iron and steel manufactures.
In spite Of the fact that moro than three
fourths of the imports into India are OF
the class produced in the United States.
less than 2 per cent OF tho fmportatIons
OF British India in 1902 was from this

Incidentally, II may be stated that the
American rogue. which has from time to
time made its appearance in this mar
ket. is not so well thought of as the
Norwegian rogue, for the reason that II
is preserved with dry salt instead Of in
brine 1t is held here that the roe when
cut out Of the cod should be at once
plunged into old brine and left to soak
for at least thirty days before being
packed into barrels for use.
The sardine-fshing season begins
here about the LIST OF June, and If any OF
our, cod fishermen think the matter
worth their attention, they should open
negotiations with the packers and other
buyers here as soon as possible. II il
would facilitate the matter in any way
