far as selling was concerned. But
the independents wanted the pro-
duction restricted in such away as TO
have the corporation buy ore, which
it was unwilling TO do.
sit is to the interests Of the cor
p)ration to keep up the price OF ore. "
Capt. Fay said, for the more its COM
petit0rs i'm the steel market have to
pay for their ore the more this tends
to keep the price Of steel up, which
naturally helps. the steel corporation
to sell its finished products at high
prices. The corporation was willing
to have an arrangement by which
those who minedland consumed ore
also would use their own ore, thus
leaving only 1000, 600 or 3.0O0.00 tons
to be bought in the open market from
the Independent producers. But this
was not met with favor.
"All that is left now for the inde-
pendent producers to do is TO find out
HOW llluCu III Is SOluS W NooO ohChh "
produce ore. figure the royalty, the
labor and so on, and make their price
cover these and add what they think
is il fair profit. They will have tC
find out what freight is going to cost
them, and l suppose this will be in
tlfc neigh ghborhood Of 60 cents"
Haven't the independents an
| understanding of any kind on price:
Is there any danger of Il great cutting
of prices?"
There is no understanding at al
on price, and l don't think there i
any great worry about cutting o.
prices. AS l say the only thing fol
the many who wants to sell his orr
to do now is to find out how much i,
is going to cost him to produce it ant
sell it al whatever he thinks is tht

A "Puff" for Hibbing.

The Duluth News-Tribune had the
following to say regarding the enter
prising city of Hibbing, few facts OF
interSt:
Not so very long ago the town OF
Hibbing sprung up in the wilderness
of pines and stones and since
that time helped by the mine in
dustry it has maintained a steady
growth. In June, 1893, a man named
Frank Hibbing set aside the south
half of the northwest quarter of sec
tion six, in township fifty-seven north
of range twenty west, started a crew
of surveyors at work and formally
announced the birth of new town.
Virginia was then the center OF at
traction of the range and when Hib-
bing was announced it was made the
laughing stock of the whole country,
Hibbing at one time was me;e hand
full of buildings on the toWnslte,
proper, but there were all kinds or
shacks, picturesque, grotesque ana
otherwise in all directions, and they
were occupied in the most part by
men who did not know from where
the next meal was coming.
In the early morning a person
might stand on the west end of Pine
street-that being the only street in
town-and not see another man.
Between and 10 o'clock the shackers
would begin to crawl out, and fiom
that time on could be- seen a con-
tinuous string of men coming in from
[all directions. That was the army of
"shackers" who lived in the woods on
all sides of Hibbing.
The first election of the village OF
Hlbbing was special, held August B.
1898, and J. T. Twitchell was elected
president without opposition.
The "frst" of everything is still in
the minds of the Hibbing pioneers
The first depot was a Missabe box
car; the first religious services were
conducted by Rev. Mevel, of Cloquet
the first postman was John Murphy
the first policeman was John E. Nee
ham, the first resident physician ant
surgeon was DR., G. Rood; the frs
LAWYER was f. e. Doucher; the frs
man arrested in the new town wa
! "Paddy the Pig" who stole a han
which was.worth something in thos'
days: and so on the first people ant
events could be named.
The town today has five busineS
streets, many of the stores being il
substantial buildings and stocke'
with first-class goods. Two railroad
run through the town and numerou
branches extended in various direct
ions. The town is the headquarter
for the principal interests of tn
Mesaba range. The residents of tn
town are enthusiastic over it's futur

Do No Harm.

Capt. M. L. Fay of Virginia who
with Jos. Sellwood was in atte ndance
of the meetings of the Bessemer Ore
Association at Cleveland has spoken
as follows regarding the dissolution
of the associations:
The captain says he does not know
but that it is just as we'll for the as
sociation to be out of existence as
not, as every man has as good a
chance as any other to sell his pro-
duct. The hitch in the proce edingS
was due to the effort to have all pro-
ducers restrict the output, and this
the United States Steel corporation
would not agree to, although it was
willing to stay out of the market so
