Annual School Meeting.

tomorrow evening. Saturday July
Is, occurs the annual school meeting
of District No. II. The meeting will
be held at the Central School build
ing and all good citizens Should at
tend. The ladies can take part in
this meeting and it is to be hoped
that all will take an active interest.
Nothing of special Importance will
lie brought up at the meeting. The
regular routine of business such as
deciding on the length of the school
year, levying the amount necessary
Tor next years expenses, voting salary
or clerk and treasurer for last year
and such other business will be tran
sacted, after which the election of a
clerk TO fill the place of II. G. Kelly
whose term expires, will be held.
So far only one candidate for the
clerkship, A. J. Thomas. has put in
an appearance. Mr.. Kelly we under
stand will not be a candidate for re-
election. However, several more
may hop into the ring before tomor-
row evening although the prospects
for contest are not favorable. MIR.
Thomas has had considerable expert
ence in school matters and no doubt
will make good clerk.

just Like White Men.

Saturday there appeared in the city
two Indians who controlled good
Vocabulary of.EngliSh, and announc-
ed that on Monday evening they and
II company of 80 would be at the
Opera House and give Il genuine eX-
hibition of Indian dances and songs
On the strength Of the show they
secured some goods about town also
some advertising matter from this
office. Sunday the fellows engaged Il
horse and rig from r. Bedford at
Winton to drive to town. Monday
night the show failed to appear.
The advance agents were also missing
together with the horse and rig.
Tuesday, two Indians were attempt
ing to sell a harness at Tower and ran
up against Chief Of Police Beatty
with their harness bargain. The
chief took both the harness and the
Indians. Later the horse and rig
were also secured. No doubt the
dusky red men had been working
under a good white teacher and need
ed the money.
In municipal court at Tower they
were bound over to the grand jury for
horse stealing and were taken to Du-
luth Thursday.

Touched for $4,000.

During Tuesday evening while the
family were at the circus. the resi-
dence Of Frank Hodge at the foot Of
Chapman street was entered~by proW-
lers and S96 90 in cash taken. A part
of the money was in Il fancy pitcher
on center table and the balance in q
trunk, up stairs. The loss was not
discovered until yesterday when
money was needed and it was then
found missing. On the day in ques-
tion Mr.. Hodge was on the police
force and was watching to see that
no robberies were committed. Even
the wearing of a star had no effect on
the burglar and he selected Mr..
Hodges place as mark. On the
same evening lady in the same
locality lost about dozen chickens.

all of the meandered lakes between
Grand Rapids and Vermilion lake.
There are thirty-three such applicat-
ions, outside Of that for exploring and
mining the ore under Longyear lake.
which latter has already been grant
ed.
"As the law is interpreted the land
commissioner Of the state, which is
the state auditor, is required to in
spect the lakes and see il there seems
to be any reason why such should not
be considered public water. and dis
cover, if there is any reason why such
leases should not be made. There is
one lake for which we shall have to
deny application for lease. 1t IS
Hale lake at Grand Rapids. The
village gets it's water supply from
there. and it would not be proper to
grant lease Of that kind under the
/ find there are Il
number of lakes on the Mesaba which
are large enough to have been meand-
cred but which are not. Thcleyenue
from the lake beds will go direct to
the general revenue fund of the state
and thus affect all the tax payers"

u. s. Steel Preferred Benefits.

Tlie following is a striking illustra-
tion of the opportunities offered to
employees of the United States Steel
Corporation and its subsidiary COM
pan,es to obtain life insurance as
wei AS most profitable investment,
under the stock subscription plan
inaugurated January 1st, 1902:
Peer Collins, deceased. formerly
in tie employ of the Illinois Steel
company, subscribed to and was
awarded four shares of the preferred
stock OF the United States Steel cor
poratiun at $3.50. The deceased had
made partial payments on his sub
scription amounting to $40 and under
date of June 9th, the United States
Steelcorporation paid to Margaret
and Ellen Collins, heirs of deceased.
the sum of $4,000, as follows:
Amountpaid on subscriptions $4,000
Dividends credited. l4.O0
$500
Less for interest at per cent on
deftrred payments. 492

Special Bonus of S. per share per
per year for five years which
deceased would have received
hadhe lived and remained con-
tinuOuSly in the employ OF the
company ............-...-. ----.-..S10000 149 06
Had Peter Collins lived and remain
ed in the employ of the company, he
wouH have received as of January L,
1904, a special bonus of $500 per share
upon his subscription. This would
havereduced the price of the stock
to him to S77.5O per share. Each year
for five years, this would have been
repeated, so that at the end of five
years his stock would have cost him
S57 so per share, and he would have
received in addition dividends at the
rate of 7 per cent per annum on the
par value of his stock, or $500 per
annum less, Of course, the interest at
5 per cent on deferred payments.
This figures an average return for
the first five years Of about 10 per
cent on his Investment. AT the end
five years. he would therefore have
four shares of stock costing him $3.50
per share, or $3.50 on which he would
receive thereafter $500 per. annum
or 1917 per cent on his investment.
Thus far fifteen employees, subscrib-
ers to the preferred stock under the
above plan. have died, and the United
States Steel corporation has settled
with their heirs or estates on the
same basis as the above illustration.
The deceased were, employed at the
various plants of the corporation
throughout the country.

City Bond Election.

On Tuesday, August 4, the people
of this city will have an opportunity
to vote on the proposition Of bonding
the city for $40, 900 for the construct
ion of Il water and light plant. The
bonds to be made payable in ten years
at an interest rate not to exceed 6
per cent.
In order to get adequate lighting
and water powerthe city is compelled
to use some money and the bonding
proposition is the only mode of secur-
ing the same. We certainly need
water and lighting power and it
should be secured at any cost. With
an assessed valuation of So, 1877, 904 in
real property and $3.50, 922 in personal
property last year and comparative
raise in this years valuation the bonds
of $40, 900 is practically an easy pro-
position which will not be directly
felt by any individual The citizens
should look this matter over careful
ly and vote for the interests of the
city.
The polling places are the same as
heretofore and the judges of election
are II. Van Blarcom, David Brown
and Luther Brockway for the first
ward; John Dennis, Jacob Skogland
and Jas. Sheridan for the second
ward; j. d. Conan. Louis Eisenach
and John Dinsmore in the third
ward

Drills Shut Down.

All the drills of Cole s.. Mcdonald
employed on Section 80 and working
for the Section Thirty company were
stopped Wednesday on orders from
headquarters. No reason was made
public for the shut down. The
action, in the face of the financial
difficulties encountered by the Cler-
que syndicate or the Lake Superior
Consolidated, would indicate that
the Section Thirty company had
direct connection with the CONSOLE
dated, a statement which has hereto
fore been denied by both sides. 1t is
sincerely to be hoped that the shut
down is Of short duration.

Excursion to EYeleth.

A special train will leave here for
Eveleth Sunday morning at 8 O'Clock,
the occasion being picnic given by
the Austrian societies. The society
at Tower arranged the trip but the
train leaves Ely. and many from this
city will probably avail themselves of
the opportunity to visit Eveleth and
Virginia. The fare for the round
trip is $500.
We understand the Ely ball boys
will go on the excursion and try con-
illusions with the Virginia team.

Selling Poor Booze.

Chas. Carlson, IL Hibbing saloon
keeper, was found guilty in municipal
court in Duluth Wednesday of selling
adulterated whiskey in violation of
the pure food laws of the state.
The case is one started by the dairy
and food commissioner of Minnesota
in campaign against the poor
whiskey which is sold in various sect
ions of the iron range country.
Many interesting things came to
light in the trial. For instance, it
was testified by state chemical ex-
perts that all whiskey contained
more or less of fusel oil and amyl
alcohol. THE whiskey in question
which was tested, was found to con-
tain third of one per cent of these
subs 3ances, and in some whiskeys the
percentage ran up as high as two and
three. Even in the best whlskey, the
expert testified that there was a
"trace" of the dangerous drugs.
We have learned from reliable
sources that out of the entire number
Of samples taken from the range town
saloons. only two stood the test.
Many from this city will probably
also be called upon the carpet pro-
vided the test case sticks. The
samples are obtained by an agent of
the food commission who goes dis
guised as a common laborer and who
buys a soc bottle of the stuff in every
place of business he visits.
