To Spend $4,000.

Metropolitan newspaper enterprise
seems to have reached its limit in the
magnificent effort now under way in
connection with the Minneapolis
Tribune to achieve a circulation Of
100000 by Dec. 81, of this year. This
mark was set by the Tribune manage
ment last January, and to show the
progress already made one has but to
note the figures for Sept. 1-S9, 1000.
This result means continued effort at
high pressure, the latest example of
which is the Worlds Fair voting con-
test now well under way. The details
of this plan are pretty well under
stood throughout the Northwest, as
nearly every community has one or
more candidates interested, but the
casual reader may not fully grasp the
magnitude of the enterprise.
The Tribune management is spend
ing S25, 000,0 In hard cash to secure
the desired results, and at the same
time afford the ladies in it's territory
the opportunity of lifetime. The
details of the plan are briefly summar-
lied as follows:
Fifty-two of the most popular ladies
will be given trip to st. Louis and
return, each to have the privilege of
selecting travelling companion; the
trip down will be by the river, return
ing on a special train; entertain
ment will be at the Hotel Hamilton,
one of the high class houses, conven-
lent TO the Exposition grounds; and
not only will ample time be given for
seeing all the sights of the Exposition
proper. as the trip occupies ten days,
but there will be special arrangements
for seeing the Pike in all its glory.
So much for the ST. Louis end Of if,
but there are other prizes. six in all.
There Is Winton Touring Car valued
at 81, 5000 90, a Rambler at 1850, 90,
and Oldsmobile at $4,000, and three
Pianos, a Chickering, Kimball. and
one other of popular make. These go
to the winners polling the largest and
second largest votes in the three
Grand Prize districts into which the
Tribune territory has been divided.
These offers have never been ap-
preached in the history Of journalism
here or elsewhere, but the Tribune is
out to make that 100000 goal.

The Primary Election is over with
and while some surprises were sprung,
it seems ticket was nominated very
satisfactory to all concerned. There
are few sore spots however which
will take time to heal.
The ticket as nominated will be
trlumphantly elected on November s.
The run of Holgate, Gilpin and Nc
Cuen were the most surprising ones
of the election as it was confidently
expected that Park and Wierick
would be the nominees and Holgate
and Whipple would run nearly on an
even footing The ticket as nomi-
mated Is as follows:
Judge of District Court.-H. B.
Dibbel.
Congress-. Adam Bede.

Primary Law Endorsement.

Herald:-The large vote cast at the
recent primaries in st. Lonis county
and all through the state is very gIati-
flying to citizens who believe that the
people instead of the politicians
should make all nominations, includ-
ing those for state offices. The out
come should have strong bearing on
future action of the legislature with
regard to the primary law.
Those newspapers and individuals
which are opposed to direct nomin-
ations and base their opposition ON
the supposition that members Of the
weaker party vote the ticket Of the
stronger party with the purpose of Sc
curing the nomination Of the weakest
candidates, will find little to sustain
their contention in the results in st.
Louis county or in any other portion
of the state. There is no doubt that
some men who generally affiliate with
the Democratic party in national aft
airs, voted the Republican primary
ticket in this county, but it will be
difficult for anyone to show single
instance where the Democratic vote
operated to the detriment of the Re-
publican party, or the welfare of the
public. The fact is that while some
oo-called Democrats might so far for
get their manhood and their duty to
themselves as citizens as to seek to in
jure Republican chances of success by
voting for what they considered the
weakest candidates, the great major
| ity of them recognized the fact that
the results Of the Republican primary
| would in most instances decide
| the election and cast their votes for
the men who, in their opinion, would
make the best officials.
The CRY of Democratic interference
from Interior motives is only raised
| by those who saw the defeat Of some
of their pet candidates who would
have been as surely defeated if no
members of the opposite party had
voted the Republican ticket;
OF course there have been some I'M
desirable candidates nominated, but
the number is perceptibly smaller
than it would have been had the nom
nations been made in convention.
The results as whole are very salts

factory and splendid endorsement
of direct nominations. The people
can always be trusted to do what
they think is about right.
The primary law is in need of some
amendment, but the restriction Of
direct nominations is not one of those
needs. In fact the extension of the
system to the nimination of state
officers is plainly made manifest in
the results of Tuesdays primary.
The voters are to be congratulated
on the fact that they took such
strong interest and so generally ex-
pressed their preferences at the polls.

PRODUCTION or MANGANESE
-~#e-
Amount and Value Of the Output Of
the Various States for the
Year 1902.


According to report made for the
United States geological survey by
Mr.. John Birkinbine. and published
as an extract from its annual volume
OF mineral resources, the quantity of
manganese ore produced In the United
States in the year 1902 was 16,477 long
tons, valued at $177,9l1 This Is an
increase Of 4,4S2 long tons and $61 1882
over the 1901 production Of 1895 long
tons. valued at $116.722, and is the
largest amount mined since the year
1891
Six states contributed to the pro-
duction They were Arkansas. Cali
fornia, Georgia, Montana, South Car
olina and Virginia, and the greatest
OF these was Montana, which produced
5000 long tons, valued at Sll7,0 900.
This Is the more notable since It was
Montana's first year Of production
Alabama. Missouri, Tennessee and
Utah, which supplied ore in 1901.
reported no manganese ores mined in
1902 South Carolina's contribution
was merely sample shipment of eight
tons. The other prominent contribut-
ing states, with the exception Of Cali
fornia, report a reduction in the
amount Of ore produced. Had it not
been for Montana, the production
would have shown considerable de-
cline in 1902
These figures do not take into ac-
count the mapganiferous iron ores pro-
duced in the United States. Those
came from three widely separated dis
tricts-Colorado the Lake Superior
region. and Virginia-and represented
a total value OF $2,001626. In guam
tity they amounted to 901,214 long
tons. with an average value of S2.22 a
ton.
The production Of manganiferous
silver ores In the United States during
1902 amounted to 194.132 long tons
valued at 1908. .O98. Most Of these
came from Colorado, and LeadvilIe
particularly
Many zinc ores are obtained in
northern New Jersey, which carry
varying percentages OF iron and man
ganese. The clinker resulting from
the treatment of the ores to obtain
the zinc content is used in the pro-
duction Of spiegeleisen. The amount
Of this kind Of ore produced in the
year 1902 was G5,24e long tons, valued
nominally at 81 per ton.
Owing TO the insufficient supply Of
satisfactory native ores large quanti-
ties o. manganese are imported from
various foreign countries. The guam
tlty imported during the year 1902
amounted to 235,576 long tens. valued
at s1.931 .2S2. or $500 per ton. Brazil
was the principal contributor. retain
ing the first place taken from Russia
m 1901. The other important con-
tributors were India. Cuba, Turkey,
and Spain. in the order named, ana
smaller amounts were imported from
Russia. Japan Germany. and Panama.
A large portion of this report is de-
voted to a consideration OF the pro-
duciion of manganese ores in other
countries.
The manganese ore mined in the
United States. and also that imported
from foreign countries is chiefly used
In the production either of spiegel-
eisen or Of ferromanganese.
