The city of Eveleth, prompted
doubtless by the example of Vir.
ginia extending the city limits
talks of a special election for the
purpose of trying to include the
Fayal. Spruce and Adams mines
within the corporate limits.
In speaking of the proposition
one of the city officials states that
while the mining corporations will
in all Likelihood oppose annexa.
ton it is deemed probable that
such election would carry despite
corporate influence.
Sould this territory be added it
would not only double the popula'
ton of the city but would double
the assessed valuation of the city
several times.
The matter will be taken up by
the Commercial Club and it is ex.
pected. special election tor the
purpose of voting on the PROPOSE
ton will be held in the early
spring.
