GET OPTION. on ST. CLAIR.
Picksnds, Mather & Co. Lease East
End PROPERTY.

L0U properly.
Pickands, Mather & Co. of Cleve-
land have taken an option of the
st. Clair iron property that lies two:
miles east of Biwabik on Embar-
rass Lake, and the prospective new
lessee has given contract to Cole
& Mcdonald to make tests. Five
drills have been put. at the work.
The terms ofsthe option have not
been announced, but the deal is one
of considerable Importance as it is
reliably stated that George A. St.
Clair of Duluth, who controls the
land, has shown up about five mil
lion tons of high grade ore. Me-
saba mines OF that size and charac-
ter that are on the market are not
at this time.
The Cleveland iron firm is one of
the larger of the independent con-
Germs. It controls a fair sized list
of Mesaba properties, and is in the
market for more. The company re-
Gently closed for lease of Lot IL in
the Biwabik district. This lies less
than a mile northeast of the St.
Clair, and while the deposit is not

high Pnkands, Mather & Co. also
have an option on the property ad-
joining the Miller mine on the west.
The fee of the St. Clair is owned by
r. H. Palmer and the Merritts.
L. G. Bradley & Co., who with Mr..
st. Clair are drilling on property
that adjoints the St. Clair on the
east, also have an option on land
just south of. the Stephens mine.
This is still farther east of the ST..
Clair. =
1t is reported that Oglebay, Nor

SENSATIONAL
Testimony in Divorce
Case.

New York, March 4-Chas. w.
Morse took the stand late this after
noon at the hearing before William
G. Davies, as referee, to determine
wheter the decree setting aside the
divorce granted TO Mrs. Clemente
Dodge against Chas. F. Dodge was
properly granted, and gave sensation
al testimony Mr. Morse testified that
he had called at the home OF A. H.
Summet last September and had
there met William A. Sweetzer, coun-
sci for Mrs. Dodge in the divorce
case, and that Mr.. Sweetzer had said
to him (Morse) that he (Sweetzer)
had retained Mortimer A. Ruger to
act as counsel for Dodge.
This was In contradiction TO The
testimony given by Mr.. Sweetzer
when he was ON the hand, early in
the afternoon, he having declared that
he did not retain Ruger (now dead
as counsel for Dodge. At the conclu
sion of Mr.. Morse's testimony the ref
cree closed the hearing and gave coup
sci until March TO file briefs in tho
case.
Mr.. Morse, IL was learned this al
ternoon, has been summoned to ap
pear before the grand jury on Monday

From the Shoulder.

The Pomona grange, which met at
New Berlin Saturday, set forth in plain
and exact terms the opinion of its
members as relating to certain propos-
ed legislation. They oppose the abolish
ing of spring elections, for the reason
that frequent elections gives oppor-
tunity to the public to express itself
when there is palpable mis-govern-
ment. There is good argument in this.
When those in power become corrupt
or derelict of duty, the only way the
people can get at them is at the cleo
ton, and in the spring local matters
are not swallowed up by national or
state issues and party influences.
The grange speaks out on the pro-
posed school code. II does not want
any one-man power or centralzation
of school control that will rob each
sub-district OF its representation upon
the board This narrowing of respon-
sibility which is advocated by such
men as George B. Cox and the big book
companies that have absorbed the
school book trade of the state. savors
too much of politics and intrigue to
be acceptable to the people who are
honest in their intentions and who
want to keep the schools for the chill
dren instead of for the tricksters.
The third resolution passed by the
grangers is rather obscure to those
who were not present to hear the dis
cussions. They are opposed to the
present management Of the Ohio canal
system. Whether they mean by this
.-e abandoning Of the canals or better
management does not appear The
general impression is that the canals
should be bettered or abandoned, but
not abandoned TO any railway corpor-
alton. Some day Ohio wants a ship
canal and it may find the nucleus in
the present system.
The Stark County Democrat. [volume] (Canton, Ohio) 1833-1912, 1904-03-08

The abOlishing OF spring elections is
for the purpose of defeating Tom
Johnson in Cleveland and preventing
Democrats from winning in other mu-
inequalities where the Republicans
think that they should have control.
There are many lesser cities in the
state which the Republicans carry in
November but which go Democratic in
the spring on local issues 1t is ex-
pected by the party in power that the
municipal tickets can be carried
through with the rush and hurrah that
usually accompanies national and state
elections. 1t is better for the dominant
party. The plan will also be less ex.
pensive TO party managers, 1t is figured,
Fellows of the Dick stripe find that il
Is easier to buy the floating vote in 4
lump and have il swallow the whole
ticket than to buy it both in the spring
and fall. With all the tickets on one
ballot scratching will be more difficult
and dangerous and 1t is expected that
the boys can be held in line. They will
sing the old song about standing pat
and try to gather up the flag ends OF
municipal control which have been get
ting away from them for the reason
that the people would not stand for
municipal corruption.

NAVAL STATION
CAUSES DEBATE IN THE
SENATE
CONTEST OVER A SITE
Appropriation Stricken
Out by House.

Washington, d. c., March 4.-The
today over an amendment to appro-
pirate $250,0O0 for the erection of a
naval training station on Lake Michi-
gan, indicated that tomorrow when the
naval bill again comes up, provision
will be inserted providing for the ap-
polntment OF a board TO investigate the
matter of sites for such station on the
great lakes. This question has been
before congress for three years. The
fight of the respective states over the
question of site has been the tumb-
ling block.
1t is charged that the selection Of
Lake Erie near Chicago by the special
naval board headed by Rear Admiral
Taylor appointed two years ago by the
secretary of the navy was unfair. Mr.
Quarles (Rep. Wis., went so far today
in the debate as to charge that 1t was
due to the fact Inat the site is in the
congressional district of Representative
Foss. chairman of the naval committee
of the house of representatives. Pro-
vision for q naval station was reported
by committee to the house but was
stricken out when the bill was under
consideration before that body. The
senate committee inserted it as an
amendment.
Mr.. German (Md) the minority
foor leader announced this afternoon
tnat he intended to discuss the general
features Of the bill tomorrow. 1t is
expected that he will sound the party
keynote on the question Of greater
navy. Mr. Clay (Dem. Ca will also
attack the bill.
The senate agreed that il would con-
slider Alaskan legislation next Thurs
day.
The house adopted an election COM
mittee report permitting Mr. Sims.
(Dem. TENN to retain his seat as rep
resentative of the eighth district and
before adjournment finished the gen
eral debate on the Indian appropriation
bill.
