poker circles, $1.0S.
Referring to some gallivantiDg female as
an estimable lady whom it Is a pleasure to
meet, when every business man in town

wards them, $40.
Calling an ordinary pulpit FOUNDER an
eminent divine, Coo.
Sending tough sinner to heaven with
poetry, $500.

UNUSUAL INTEREST
Created By Mysterious New Discovery That Works Wonders
For Sick and Afflicted.

81 secured some of the New Dis
covery medicine and began taking
it for Catarrhal trouble and Neu-
ralgia but 1 had no idea the remedy
would effect the system so generally
as it proved to. After taking it for
a few days 1 noticed an improve
ment. My catarrhal trouble dis
appeared almost entirely and my
neuralgia was soon thing of the
past. Now eat better. sleep better
and feel better and stronger in
every way"
Cooper's New Discovery
strengthens the entire system; it
drives every trace of disease and
poison from the blood and sends
the vital fluid, pure, rich, red, surg
ing through the veins carrying
health, strength and vigor to every
part of the body. 1t is sold at one
dollar per bottle. Cooper's Quick
Relief, which should be used in
connection costs fifty cents. The
remedies can only be obtained of
A. S. James.

PETITIONS are being circulated
everywhere to De sent to congress
protesting against the move to
have the mail boxes on all rural
routes numbered instead of named
asat present. The petition circulat-
ed in this city by M. Weinzierl was
signed by all the business men.
The idea of such numbering is
that mail order houses can then
send their circulars and other print
ed matter to the people: on the
routes, whether or not they have
the addresses. Congressman Bede
will be requested to fight this
proposition and fight it hard. The
proposition is a direct slap at the
country merchant the same as the
parcels post would be. While Ely
would not be affected by reason of
having no rural routes, the mer-
chants here considered it their
duty to lend their voice tow ards
the suppression of the proposit-
ion.

Duluth wants the new court
house for st. Louis county but
don twant the representatives of the
people, the county commissioners
to build it. They want court house
commission named by the real estate
boosters to do the work. The COM
missioners have met the opposi-
tion by passing resolution to fix
up the old court court house
some and let it GO at that. In the
meantime the special court house
fund is accumulating and only a
few years would elapse before there
will be money enough in the fund to
build two court houses, one at Du-
luth and another in one of the range
towns. Of course, this arrange
ment will not be satisfactory to
the Duluth crowd, but, if they stop
to consider that the ranges pay be-
tween sixty and seventy percent of
the taxes of the county. they sure
ly cannot oppose the idea with any
degree of consistency. However,
as the latter word has been elm
mated from the Vocabulary of the
average unsalted citizen of the Zen
18th sea, the ranges can rest assured
that opposition to county division
or any plans they may produce is
as sure as death and the aforemen-
toned sixty or seventy per cent of
the taxes. Already mining man,
heavy taxpayer" and prominent
citizen" are working their jaws
overtime telling how the ranges
would suffer in case county division
would prevail.

"ALL | want in any rate legisla-
ton, is to give the government a
sufficient supervisory power which
shall be exercised as scrupulously
to prevent injustice to the rail
roads as to prevent their doing in
justice to the public said Presi-
dent Roosevelt to delegation of
railway employees recently sent to
him to protest against proposed
railway legislation. Should this
not prove satisfactory to the rail
roads it is proof conclusive their
plans are not to pull fair with the
public.

AMONG EXCHANGES

There is good state land around
Ripple on which farmers could at
once plant profitable homes. Much
of it is high and dry land, signing
for company and begging to be
combed with hay fork or potato
fork. But this land is not on the
market. The state is waiting until
adjoining farms are fully developed,
until neighboring settlers build
roads, and schools and churches
nearby. When the settlers have
borne all the brunt of pioneer life,
the State will drive up in it's car
riage and reap all the benefit of
increased land values. This state
of ours is the meanest kind of a
landlord, cold and neglectful. 1t
is a misery land Spectator, feast
ing on the labor of others, with
out offering the least encourage
ment to it's workmen. The state
land policy would disgrace the con-
stitution of hades. Fork Com
pass.

OF all the accomplishments OF
science, of all the wonderful in
ventions and scientific discoveries
of the past decade, none has proved
so valuable as combination of
strange roots and herbs, the nature
of which has been heretofore UNI
known to medical science and which
compose a medicine of such start
ling power that scientists and
doctors are amazed.
Physicians have stood by and
seen cases that they had worked
on for years, cured as if by mir
acle with this marvellous product
of scientific research.
Rheumatism, Catarrh. Stomach
and Kidney trouble, Blood Diseases
and Paralysis vanish mysteriously
under its influence, and as has been
proved by many tests, disease once
expelled from the system with this
medical phenomena never returns.

Mccormick, 720 Seventh Avenue,

The Prison Mirror published by
the inmates of Saltwater Prison
asks why is it that from the be-
ginning of this paper to the pre-
sent time we have not had. an
editor to sojourn in our midst?
Other professions have been repre-
sented. OF preachers we have had
enough to furnish substance to an
African chief for year; OF doctors
enough to depopulate a state, and
lawyers for a good sized colony in
hades. But editors not one.

IT is no uncommon sight to see
girls of tender years on the streets
at unseemly hours of night. Stop
it, girls, and if you don't, your
parents should. The street is a
bad place for girls. The girl that
stays at home with mother will
be the maid selected when some
nice young fellow goes looking for
a wife. The girl that spends her
time boarding the rotunda
of little Willie's pants, or helping
her mother with the household
duties is worth ten of the frizzed
slang throwing girls who spend
their time on the street.

The right man for governor
when found, will probably be taken
up by the people and placed in the
chair with whoop. Until such
time as the proper name appears
before the voters not much atten-

liticians who have been busy for
some time nominating Republican
governors for Minnesota.

MINERS TO ASSEMBLE DEC. I4.
Mitchell Preparing Them for a Great
 DRE.


 Shamokin, Pa, Sept. 1S.-President John Mitchell of the United Mine Workers of America, announced to- day that the convention of mine work CTS of the three anthracite districts at which demands will be formulated to be presented to the anthracite coal companies next spring will be held here on December 14. The mine workers of the three districts will shortly elect dei- egates to represent them at the meet ing. The decision to hold a conyen- tion to formulate demands is similar to , the action taken before the great strike of 1902, when a convention was held here to draw up demands. The award of the anthracite coal strike commits sion will expire March S1 next year. President Mitchell has been in the an- thracite region for the last two months holding meetings every day for the purpose of strengthening the union. After the 1902 strike there was con- siderable falling off in membership. As a result of the campaign the miners leader is waging many of those who trapped out of the organization are re- turning.
 Among the demands that the convon- tion will probably formulate are an S. hour work day for all classes of mine workers, recognition of the union and a yearly agreement with the coal com- lpanies similar to the one existing in Ithe middle west.

King Views Parade of 10000 Volunteers
 Sir Thomas Lipton Hurt.
 Edinburgh, Scotland, Sept. 1S.-The greatest muster of Scotchmen under arms since the battle of Flodden Field was reviewed by King Edward here to- day. The king arrived at the Scottish capital this morning and proceeded to Holy Rood palace, whence, attended by the Duke of Connaught and 8 brilliant staff, he rode to the parade ground in Kings park, where nearly 4O,000 Scot tish Volunteers paraded past his maj esty.
 Large numbers of visitors from all parts of Scotland and the North of England witnessed the review, which is expected to assist in counteracting the extreme irritation felt in volunteer cir cles over recent regulations of the war office.
 During the march past Sir Thomas Lipton, who is honorary colonel of the Second Lanarkshire Engineers, while leading his regiment past the king, was thrown from his horse and kicked in the face by the animal.
 Sir Thomas injuries consist of a cut mouth and bruised shoulder and arm. He was unseated owing to sudden swerve of his horse. The king sent an equerry to Sir Thomas hotel to inquire about his condition.
