About IT'S people were aboard the
football excursion train to Portland
yesterday morning. The S P COM
pany only required $50 tickets to
be sold along the entire loute, to
justify them in running he special
train, hut there must have been
early 500 people on the train by
the time it reached Portland. The
cars were decorated with large
Istreamers, and the orange was
noticeable on almost everyone in
the four well-tilled cars that lett
Corvallis. This is the first time
a football team has ever had a
special train to carry them and
their "rooters" to the field of battle.
The GAZETTE regrets that it is not
able to give the results of the big
game in this issue, owing to the
paper going to press before the
game was finished. However, the
game in detail will be chronicled in

Outlook Good.

Amos Sheppard, general superin-
tendent of the mines for Corrigan
Mckinney & Co., while in Duluth
this week said the situation as re-
CARDS the iron ore business seems to
be improving.
1.-THE outlook is much more en-
couraging than it has been for many
months" said Mr.. Sheppard. "a
late opening of navigation will be of
some benefit to the ore industry. The
later the opening the more time will
the furnacemen have to clean up pre-
sent stocks before the shipping of new
supplies begins, and the tendency will
be for more liberal movement. So
far as | nave heard there is no estab-
lished prices for ore outside OF the
long time contracts.
II understand that no schedules
have been agreed on for this year.
There is no ore association relating to
any of the Lake Superior ores this
season. The associations have been
of advantage in the past, but they
have not been able to get together
this year."

evening at the City Hall for the nom-
inaticn of candidates for the several
offices to be voted for brought forth a
very large vote and Alb ballots were
cast during the hour the polls were
open. The candidates had entered an
agreement to have all names printed
on one ticket similar to the Austria
lian system and an X mark was re-
quired to denote the preference.
The vote,for several of the candi-
dates created a surprise and several
states as made were badly broken.
The counting of the ballots required
nearly three hours and from the first
it was plainly to be surmised who
the nominees were to be.
The general caucus was called to
order by Grant McMahan and j. W.
Osborne was elected chairman, Peter
Schaefer clerk, and Luther Brock
way and Lewis j. White judges. A
ward committee consisting of Grant
McMahan, Nick Tribilcock and P. w.
Sture was appointed. The votes cast
were as follows, those receiving the
highest number of votes being de-
clared the nominees.

Select Much Land.

The receipts of the Duluth land Of
fee will be lesSened to a considerable
extent by the states selection of
SO, 705. 43 acres of school lands within
the Duluth district. S. e. Atkins,
land clerk of the state auditors Of
fee, and Claude Brown, his assistant.
have completed their work at the Du-
luth land office of selecting the lands
in this district to be taken in lieu of
schools sections included in the
several Minnesota Indian reservations
and the land office clerks are now busy
checking over the list.
Although the total acreage chosen
amounts to less than five townships,
the selection of oyer $4,000 acres of
land in this one district is looked up
on as taking away the business of at
least six or seven townships, for the
reason that only those sections and
fractions of sections are taken which
are available for homestead and stone
and timber entry. Most of the pre-
sent selections are small tracts, scat
tered over the whole district. AS no
swamp lands are taken, every acre
chosen takes just so much from the
receipts of the local land office.
| There is so much swamp land, from
which the land Office derives no re.
venue in every township, that would
probably take seven or more town
ships in the present instance TO sup
ply as much land available for settle
ment as has been chosen for school
purposes. 1t was remarked at the
land office yesterday that 1.-TWO OF
three more such hauls from tn:
district would put US out of bust
Eess.'
The privilege of taking land at will
in the public domain was granted a:
an idemnity for the loss OF scloo
lands on Indian reservations. There
is law which awards TO the state
sections Is and SO in each township
for school purposes, provided these
sections are not within the bound
aries of an Indian reservation. II
the latter case the state is allowed
to select a like amount of govern
ment land i'm any other portion o
the state.
For every 100 acres secured in thi.

Swamp Lands Tied Up.

A dispatch from Washington of
March 10Th says:
If the president approves ruling
made by the secretary of the interior
the petitioners in the northern part
of Minnesota, who sought to Sc
cure a modification in the manner of
selecting swamp lands under the grant
to the state, will have to 60 to con-
gress for relief.
Some days ago protest was filed in
the department. against the approval
of swamp lard selections made by the
state-on the ground that the selec-
tions were made in accordance with
the field notes of the government.
The result was that selections involy-
ing several million acres of land
temporarily were Tied up. Secretary
Hitchcock has announced that he can
see no reason why the practice of the
IdepartmenG should be reversed. He
holds that the selection of swamp
lands after the field notes is a proper
ruling, and that no evidence has been
presented to justify a change in the
procedure. The expectation is that
this decision of the secretary, based
upon the report made to him by the
commissioner of the general land Of
fee, will be approved. II so, an effort
will be made to present the Bede bill,
which requires that the swampy
character OF the land shall be deter
mined by actual examination. and
that the field notes shall not be ac-
cepted as absolute proof.
The signatures of 10000 persons are
Eattached to petition filed by Rep
resentative Bede, urging either a
change in the practice of the depart
ment by executive action or the pas.
sage of the bill which provides fol
such change.

Was Elected President.

At the recent meeting Of the Amer
lean Institute OF Mining Engineers
held at Atlantic City, Mr.. James
Gayley, vice president of the United
States Steel corporation was chosen
president he receiving every vote. 1t
was very high compliment to Mr..
Gayley and one he appreciates. It is
particularly gratifying to him be-
cause this year the Institute is TO visit
the Lake Superior country where Mr..
Gayley is so largely interested. 1t is
quite probable that the Lake Superior
Mining Institute will arrange to join
in an excursion through this region.
The American Institute OF Mining
Engineers is one of the most repre-
sentative of its kind, and has large
membership.

The Leland Case.

The jury in the Leland case again
disagreed and according to late re-
ports the case will not again come up
for trial. Since the last trial there
has been more or less talk that the
county has already been put to quite
an expense, and THAT the trials al
ready made to convict or acquit prac-
tically show the futility of making
further efforts to find twelve men
that will have an unanimous opinion
as to Mr.. Leland's guilt or innocence.

Against Vertical Writing.

The question of penmanship in the
public schools promises TO be an i'm
portant subject at the next meeting
of the board of education OF the city
of Duluth.
The vertical system of penmanship
as taught in the public schools seems
10 be the bone of contention. and
Saturday Il committee of Duluth
citizens waited upon Superintendent
Denfield and presented to him letters
from all the jobbing houses in the
city, and petitions are being circu-
lated TO present to the board request
ing the change from the vertical to
the Spsncerian system.
Nearly all the letters from the job.
bers go on at some length to explain
why the vertical system is not prac-
teal one for business and some OF
them are emphatic in stating that
they will not consider applications
for positions from persons who use
the vertical system of handwriting
Other jobbers claim that they prefer
| not to engage a clerk or bookkeepel
who uses the vertical system, while
one large jobber who says his firm
makes. no particular discrimination
between employees who use the verti
cal system and those who use the
slant system, states it has been OBJ
served that when the slant system
penman is crowded, his penmanshil
grows better, while in case of til,
vertical system. the writer is apt to g,
to pieces, or. in other words, TO be
came so tired and cramped that b,
has to stop work.
Up TO the present time there has beer
no efforts on the part of the friends o.
the vertical system to offset publ,
sentiment in favor OF change to til,
slant system of penmanship, but it i.
understood that il counter petition il
