Have a Kick Coming.

Those who have occasion to use the
Section 80 road from the st. Louis
county line to the camps, are very
loud in their denunciations over the
dilatory manner in which the Lake
county officials treat their appeals for
help in fixing this very necessary
highway to fit it for travel. At the
present time it is all a mans life,
and the life of his team is worth to
attempt to travel between the line
and the drill camps on 30, and those
who have occasion to use this road
are compelled to tighten their load
before attempting to cross.
st. Louis county a short time ago
fixed their end Of the highway in a
very commendable manner and while
not in the best of condition, neverthe-
less compares about like boulevard
to the Lake county end, Those own
ing land in this end of Lake county
have paid heavy taxes for years and
it is an injustice to not even be al
lowed necessary mode of ingress and
egress to their property. The piece
in question is nothing more nor less
than mud-hole and should be fixed.

Work Full Time.

Yesterday, Thursday morning all
the employees at the Duluth & Iron
Range shops resumed working ten
hours per day. Since last fall the
greater number have been working
but nine hours, and the new order
was greeted most cordially. The re-
sumption was necessary by the rush
of business, and the scarcity of men.
Even uuder the new conditions they
will be running short handed. In all
departments of labor at present the
supply is inadequate. Common labor
ers are especially hard to procure.
All trust that the supply of business
has come to stay, as an increase of
two days per month for each man en-
ployed means big increase in the
amount disbursed here pay days.

Passion Play.

Miss M. e. Elson of New York, was
in the city early in the week making
arrangements for the presentation of
the Austrian Oberammergan Amuse-
ment Co., "Cimeograph" reproduct-
ion of the Passion Play as performed
every ten years by the peasants of
Mount HoritZ, wildly reproduced by
means of moving pictures. The Pass
ion Play is endorsed by all Christian
denominations; Story of the Cross:
The PEASANTS sacred drama; each
picture masterpiece. They are life
size, startlingly life-like, realistic and
complete in every detail. The eX-
hibition of the series cannot fail to
interest and produce salutary i'm
preston on any Christian audience.
The pictures will be shown by Mr..
Sam. L. Fried at the Opera House on
Wednesday and Thursday. October,
5th and 9Th and is of all moving pic
lures and gives the best idea of the
performance of Mount Horitz pea
SAINTS ever shown. Miss Elson has ar
ranged for the exhibition for the
benefit of ST. Anthony's Catholic
church. Don't miss the opportunity

Dunn and the Undone.

The Pioneer PEess recently publish
ed on editorial regarding the john
son-Dunn reports which fits the case
to a nicely and VIC hereby reproduce
the same:
If Robert G. Dunn had not been
candidate for governor his admins
tration of the office of state auditor
would have stood unchallenged as a
remarkable example of energetic, in
telligent and jealous devotion to the
interests of the state in the reform of
old abuses and in the institution of
correct and clean business methods in
the discharge of its complicated and
responsible duties. 1t was precisely
the high reputation for official ability
and integrity which he won in his
two terms in that Office which made
him so strong and popular candi-
date for the Republican nomination.
1t was obvious, indeed, that nothing
could prevent his nomination unless
this reputation could be successfully

Cannot be Extradited.

The authorities of st. Louis county
have decided to drop the eXtradition
proceedings which they instituted
some time ago for the return of Frank
Skerlez, suspected of the murder of
Joseph. Payelka. County Attorney
McClintock has received letter from
Washington stating, that under the
treaty with Austria an Austrian SUBJ
ject cannot be eXtradited from that
country for crime committed in the
United States. SkerleZ never took
out first papers in the United States
and is consequently still a subject of
Austria

County's Prosperity.

The following well written editorial
item on the increase of st. Louis
county was written by County Audi
tor Halden for Sundays News Tri-
bune:
Prospects never were brighter for
st. Louis county than they are now.
The development both industrial and
agricultural which has taken place
within it's limits during the past few
years has been exceptional, making it
the second county in the state in
point of property valuation within it's
boundaries.
Not only this but figures based on
the tax assessment which we're pub
lished in the News Tribune last week
show that an immence increase in
this valuation has occurred since 1900.
By far the greater part of the increase
took place outside of the city of Du-
luth, though the growth of the NUM-
clpality caused healthy appreciation
in the total amount of valuation, 1t
was brought about by the opening up
of valuable mining properties princi-
pally, but agricultural development
was also large factor.
We are building on solid founda-
tion and it augurs well foI the future
of the county. There is no reason
why this increase should not continue
for many years and it should not be
long before st. Louis forsakes the
rank which it has recently gained to
lead all the counties of the state in
point of valuation.

Old Citizen Gone.

Jacob Perttula, otherwise known as
Jacob Pete, died Saturday night Of
intestinal hemOrrhage after an illness
of only week, at his residence on
Camp street in this city. Mr., Pert
lula was Torn in Finland "a years
ago. He came 20 this country eight.
cen years ago settling in Ely and has
resided here ever since. For the first
few years he followed mining being
employed at the Chandler, later going
into contracting and logging business,
which vocation he was following
at the time of his death. being
engaged in putting in the sewer and
water mains in the alley between
Camp and Sheridan streets. He was
a very hard working man and at his
advanced age took many desperate
chances with the elements. His i'll
ness was brought on by exposure dur
ing his late work and coupled with
injuries offormeryears, the seemingly
robust constitution was too weak to
stand the shock.
A widow, two sons and two daught-
ers. all grown, are left to mourn the
loss of kind husband and indulgent
father, The funeral occurred Tuesday
from the Finnish church, Rev. Anias
officiating, and was one of the largest
ever held in the city, Being one of
the Oldest residents of the city, the
business houses were closed during
the time of the funeral out of respect
for the dead.
The Finnish Temperance Society,
of which deceased was valued mem
Der, headed by their band, escorted
the remains to their final resting
place in the Ely cemetery. The pro
cession accompanying the remains
was very imposing and embraced
nearly every vehicle in town, Even
from Tower, Winton and White Iron,
many were present to pay their last
respects to their dead friend.

Extensive Ore Deposits.

while some people give exaggerat-
ed figures concerning the quantity Of
ore in the Vermlion and Mesaba ram
ges there ars undoubtedly large de-
posits there" said r. ]. Schmitz Of
New York, a consulting engineer.
Mr.. Schmitz was sent by a New
York syndicate tosurvey the range in
1894, and was the first engineer to
drill on the Mesaba. During an act
i've service of more than twenty years,
as mining engineer, he has surveyed
in nearly all states in the East and
South, Cuba, and Mexico, and has

published several reports concerning
his researches.
During the three or four visits I
have made here, on several occasions,
my conclusions have always been the
same. l don't believe that there are
deposits of more than 200 vertical feet
in the region. OF course, my esti-
mates are always of a conservative
nature. and l prefer to make them
lower than higher"

The big round silver dollar is DOOM
ed to disappear. No more are to be
coined and instead we will have crisp
bank notes, that is they will be crisp
until they absorb sufficient dirt to be-
come nasty. There is a demand how
ever, for the dollar bank notes by
those who want to send money
through the mails and with their
general circulation one can look for
falling off in the sale of postal notes
by the government and the sale of
small drafts by the banks. They may
not be quite so safe, but that don't
count with lots of people.

day from her weeks visit in Ashland.

BRIGHAM LECTURES
ON NEW ZEALAND

Professor w. T. Brigham entertained
three or four hundred people at Pauahi
Hall last evening with an account of
his experiences in New Zealand while
there a few months ago. Mr.. Brigham
talked very pleasantly of his visit to
the hot spring region afterwards show
ing stereopticon views of some of the
more interesting places. He described
wildly the mud springs, the spouting
geysers, the sulphur mines, the water
fall and many other interesting points.
From his experience, Mr.. Brigham
thought the labor system in New Zea-
land was somewhat of a failure. All
hotels must be closed at ten o'clock
to give the employees a rest, the shops
are closed at six o'clock, overwork at
the hotel is charged double, the trans
and railroads are shut down on Sun
day, and the workingman is protected
in every way. As showing the failure
of the government supervision Mr..
Brigham cites the necessity for the
pensioning system. He said that ev-
cry man who has been a good citizen
for twenty-five years, who is over sixty
years of age, and who earns not more
than fifty-two pounds a year, is enti-
tied to a pension. This amounts to
eighteen pounds yearly and there are
Il, 200 pensioners.
