AGREED TO DISAGREE.
Ore Producers Failed to Agree at Mon.
days Meeting.


The ore meeting OF Monday was
well attended and there was most
thorough canvass ofall phases of the
situation. Following the meeting in
early February, at which the diver
gence between the views OF the con-
Suming interests owning their own
mines and of the more or less exclus-
lively merchant ore companies became
pronounced, the consuming interests
held separate meeting. 1t was at
tended by representatives OF two inn
portant steel companies besides the
steel corporation and by one large
merchant ore company. The four
united In signing a proposal, which
looked to a 40 per cent reduction from
the shipments of 1903, making the
estimated production for 1904 about
IA, ,000, 900 tons. 1t also provided for
an agreement TO bring down no ore
not actually sold or provided for In the
furnace schedules OF the consuming
producing companies. AS against the
reduction OF OIL a ton from the base
price OF 1908, which the merchant ore
men proposed, IL made the reduction
so cents. The following table shows
the amount OF the reduction as con-
tanned In this agreement Of the con-

Old-Range Bessemer $50 $500

The merchant ore men who argued
that IN Justice to their customers who
were receiving very low price for
pig iron. ore prices should oe mater
tally reduced from those Of 1908, fl
nally expressed willingness tomodlfy
their original idea OF a 81 reduction
ON old.range Bessemers from last
years base aud suggested a cCmpro-
mise on the following;
Old Range Bassemer, ,...... $3.50
MeSabi BeSSemer. r.st.......... 800
| Old Range nom RcSScmer. ...a 80
Mesabl non BeSsemer. ..s..... 260
This suggestion was not fayorably
received by The consuming interests,
Though the differences do not appear
irreconcilable on their face, there
were other questions besides that Of
price on which there was divergence
ct view, and IL was the total effect OF
these differences that proved bar to
agreement.
No sales OF ore for 1904 are reported,
conditions being against early transac-
tions. IL is not TO be expected that
buyers would contract at the first
quotation that might be made,
and on the other hand sellers are not
apt, In going after trade, TO name
such prices as would naturally become
current after several weeks OF open
competition

To the Public.

Noticing our competitors write-up
last Saturday, il is, TO say the least,
naive, their argument being that the
cash customer has TO pay for the one
that dosen't pay at all. This admis-
sion dosen't say much for their busi-
ness methods nor their indiscriminate
extension of credit, whether deserving
or not. Also their plea OF charity,
a cut in wages, is rather lame. AS
the public knows the only reason is
that A. Kellar started cash system
at liurja's stand, and is treating all
customers alike. His motto is, live
and let live; sell cheap for cash, the
same treatment To all customers. He
don't believe in giving one coupons and
charge them, while others pay cash
for same. Should A. Kellar close up
tomorrow you would see the Grocery
Trust put up prices. Hoping to
get the public support in making this
a city where people can live as reason
able as anywhere else, am
Respectfully Yours,
A. KELLAR.

was disturbed In her sleep and he
arose and went TO her bedside. That
was the last time he was seen alive.
When little Edwin awoke in the
morning he tried to wake his father
and, failing he went TO his mothers
room for her assistance. Mrs. Soults
was Mortified, on approaching the bed
TO find her husband cold In death.
The shock prostrated her.
Mr.. Soults came to Menominee In
1886 and established the Menominee
Democrat, now the Leader. He stood
high in the councils OF his party, but
was tolerant and well liked by ad-
herants OF both parties. He was a

neys. Have Weeks &Co's End OF the
Suit-Abbott for the City.

The long threatened claim OF Weeks
& Go. against the city OF Crystal Falls
for extras was filed with Clerk Munns
last Monday and the city officials now
know what to expect from Mr.. Weeks.
This suit was the result OF a disagree
ment between the city council and
Mr.. Weeks when the time OF settle
ment arrived and was never finished
up. Several special meetings OF the
council were had with the end in view
OF compromising the matter but no
full settlement could be arrived at and
Mr.. Weeks left town with the state
ment that he would file suit against
the city for the amount OF his claim,
which we were told amounted TO at
that time but a trifie over $1,000. 1t
seems that the claim sprouted since
IL was brought back to Chicago and
when 1t appeared again il was full
blown double OF the original with a
little pollen dust TO spare.
So much time elapsed between the
parting of the ways last spring and
the filing OF the claim that the city
officials were in quandery as TO what
Mr. Weeks really intended doing.
They need wonder no longer for the
latter has shown his hand, as the say
ing is, and it's up TO the council to al
low or stand suit.

COUNTY POLITICS STARTING
Candidates for the Various Offices Begin to
Show Up.

X. p. Hollow announced himself a
candidate for Sheriff OF this county
before the coming Republican Conyen-
tion, which will be held late in the
summer. Mr.. Hollow has had the
move under advisement for several
months and only last Monday an
nounced definitely that he will be in
the race.
The Sheriff race promises TO be a
very interesting one and candidates
are bobbing up on all sides Besides
Mr.. Hollow, the east side will have
two additional candidates, Irving H..
Jackson, of Crystal Falls and Thomas
Broad, OF Mansfield.
The West side will have a crop of
candidates for this Office also. Atkin-
son, so it is said, will present Cyrus
Sensiba, Iron River, Ed. Sensiba and
Bates, Manville b. Waite. There are
some contradictory statements re-
garding these candidates.. 1t is stated
that Cyrus and Ed. Sensiba will not
both be candidates and that before
the time arrives one will retire. Ii is
also stated that Mr.. Waite and Mr.
Hollow will not oppose one another;
that one will retire in the others
favor. These are only rumors that
stand for verifcation later.

boxes OF food valued at eighty cents
per box were distributed among poor
families. These offerings were receiv
