Swell, Shrink And Absorb Filth.

While it is not the intent of the
Enterprise to knock" on any i'm
provement, it has never been our
opinion that the creosoted wood
block pavement laid on Chestnut
street was "the best ever" but it is
laid-by direction of your Uncle
Willlam-and it is now up to the
property owners to pay the freight
and like it or lump it, to suit
themselves. But that our opinion
of the paving material used-its
durability and desirable qualities
is Held by others is borne out in an
article in the last issue of the Ish-
peming Iron Ore, in speaking of
the creosoted block pavements put
in the past summer at Red Jacket,
in which the writer says:
"The creosoted blocks used in
some places in Red Jacket are not
giving satisfaction, we hear. We
wouldn't have them in Ishpeming.
They swell, and shrink, absorb
filth, become very rough with use,
and are altogether undesira ble."

The Roosevelt High School foot
ball squad, which was to have
played Ely on Saturday, fell down
on getting a game with the Yer
million champions at the last
moment and substituted a game
with Chisholm, playing on the
Chisholm grounds, and treating
their antagonists to a shut~out while
making a. score. of 5 as their rec ord.
No game will be played by the
High school team tomorrow owing
to the fact that several members
will be among attenda Its at the big
game between the Gophers and the
Indians at Minneapolis, but game
is being arranged with the Eveleth
team for Tuesday next.
The second team of the Roosevelt
School will entertain the Chisholm

Ask For Chance In Manaoemeot.

A large number of Virginians are
numbered among stockholders in
the Anglo-Saxon mine at George
town, Colorado, and while all re.
ports would indicate that the pro-
perty is valuable one the share
holders have wearied OF the con.
tinued absence of results and this
week sign and send to the board OF
directors petition asking for the
removal of superintendent Shepard
and the installation of new
manager.
The company has expended a
large sum of money in the erection
of a mill and the development OF
the mine, and the stockholders are
not to be blamed for their i'm
patience to either see results or at
least see the stock in the company's
holding make an appreciable show.

SWANSON GETS SMALL VERDICT.
Jury Awards Him $727 for Death of
His Wite On Railroad Crossinq.

Gust Swanson, who sued the DIX
luth, Missabe & Northern Railroad
company for 5000 damages on ac-
count of the death of his wife as the
result of an accident at the cross
ing between this city and Eveleth
last June, was on Wednesday award
ed verdict in district court for
$727.0O.
Mrs. Swanson and two compan-
ions were driving from Virginia to
Eveleth Christmas night, 1905, when
the rig was struck as it was Cross
ing the Missabe tracks at the track
crossing. Mrs. Swanson was in
stantly killed, but the other two
persons in the sleigh escaped by
jumping before the rig was struck.
Mr.. Swanson claimed that the
railway company was liable
through negligence of its employees,
that there was no warning signal
given of the approach of the train.
The company claimed that any
person approaching the crossing
had an unobstructed view of the
track for three fourths of mile and
thatif ordinary caution had been
exercised the train could have been
seen approaching. The company
claimed that the engineer gave the
usual warning signals, but that the
people in the sleigh were driving
fast in an attempt to get over the
crossing ahead of the train.
The case has been tried twice. At
the first trial the jury disagreed.

Prepare For Active Work.

NJ. Steinberg, president of the
Overwhich Gold Mining company,
controlling claims patented by Mr..
Steinberg on Overwhich Greek near
Hamilton, Montana, has received
word from other owners of rights
on the creek that mill may be had
to saw necessary lum ber for sluice-
ways the coming winter, and ar
rangements for such work will be
made.
The Overwhich is a rich placer
proposition, but its development
has been retarded by lack of capital.
Stock in the mine is held paincipal-
ly by Virginia and Chicago in.
vestors, and the. board of directors
have authorized the sale of a limited
number of shares for development
purposes. @5.

tecting their pavement investment
and this week covers Railroad
avenue for distant on either side
of Chestnut street with crushed
rock-thereby eliminating, = to a
great extent, the hauling of mud
onto the street. I: s. :

fills the alleys alongside their office
and warehouse with crushed rock,

NAMES JOHNSON FOR PRESIDENT.
Capt. N. [. Fay Says Minnesota Govern
or Could Garry The Country.

Capt. NJ. L.Fay, of Virginia, paused
long enough in Duluth yesterday
while on his way home from the
lead fields of Wisconsin to INFORMAL
ly nominate Gov. John A. Johnson
as the candidate for president in
1903. He says it is the logical out
come of the political future accord
ing to the present outlook. Follow
ing is more in detail what the Cap
tain has to say on the subject:
"John A. Johnson has just been
reelected governor of Minnesota,
on the Democratic ticket, by about
$1,000 plurality, and that, too, in a
state whose normal Republican
majority is 10000. If 70 per cent of
the American people could meet
Governor Johnson personally, or
hear him speak, previous to the
election in 1908 there would be no
doubt of the result. He would i'm
press himself upon the people of
the nation just as he has upon the
people of Minnesota, and would be
elected hands down. He is the
equal of any man in the United
States in executive ability and his
sincerity and integrity are of the
highest order. Governor Johnson,
of Minnesota, is the strongest, and
the logical candidate for president
on the Democratic ticket in 1908.
He would carry Wisconsin, Min
nesota, Illinois, Iowa, the two
Dakotas, and everything west of the
southern boundary of South Dakota,
and this, with the solid south, would
give him majority in the electoral
college."-News Tribune.

The Buck Woke Him Un.

While some of those who left for
the bush a week ago in quest of the
fleetfooted deer returned empty
handed, many were better rewarded.
But it was few who had the easy
sport attributed to one who, while
watching on runway. fell asleep
and was awakened by the paving of
a frightened buck that had dis
covered him. And as evidence that
it was not dream he brought the
intruder into camp, antlers and all.

WILL ATTACK MUNICIPAL COURT ACT.
JUDGE Joh" N. mart;e Declares Law
croafsnn Samo 1e 1lnrnnefs n ssfs snna1

JUDGE John N. martiQ Declares Law
Creating Same Is Unconstitutional.
Judge John N. Martin, of this city,
who represented Joseph Sheehy in
his recent trial for libel of T. J. Nc
Keen, assistant city attorney of Du-
luth, declares that the law under
which the municipal courts in ST..
Louis county were created is un-
constitutional, and this will be the
basis of his appeal of the Sheehy
case. Judge Martin claims that
under the constitution the legisla-
ture has no authority to establish
municipal courts with jurisdiction
extending farther than the COM
munity which elects the municipal
judge in each case. The municipal
court of Duluth, for example, is
presided over by judge who is
elected by the people of Duluth
only, yet it has jurisdiction over
cases in St. Louis county, and Lake
and Cook counties. The municipal
courts of Virginia, Hibbing and
Eveleth have jurisdiction in the
entire county yet the judge of each
court is elected by the voters of
each of those places. Judge Martin
says:
"The constitution of the state of
Minnesota provides that the judicial
power of the state shall be vested in
a supreme court, district court,
courts of probate, justices of the
peace, and such other courts inferior
to the supreme court as the legisla-
ture may from time to time establish
by two-thirds vote.
"Section 9 of article of the con-
stitution provides that all judges
other than those provided for in
the constitution shall be elected by
the electors of the judicial district,
county or city tor which they shall
be created.
"The constitution therefore in
tends that no person can be judged
by person whom the electors have
had no opportunity to vote for. The
electors must elect the judges that
are to pass judgment upon them.
"The city of Duluth has a muni-
cipal court that under the legisla-
tive act, not the constitution, has
jurisdiction over the city of Duluth,
and St. Louis and Lake and Cook
counties. All other municipal courts
in the county of St. Louis are given
by Legislative act, not by the con-
stitution, jurisdiction throughout
the county of St. Louis.
"It is plain that the electors out
side of the particular cities where
the municipal courts are located
have no opportunity to vote for the
judges of these courts. This can
be corrected only by new legisla-
tive acts, taking the outside city
jurisdiction away from the muni-
cipal courts. The Legislature can
act upon it before the Sheehy case
be reached in the supreme court. l
do not like to raise the point I have
have outlined, but my duty to my
client demands it."

c. c. BUTLER AWARDED CONTRACT.
tor The Construction OF Sanitary
Sewer In District No. 3F.

At the council meeting Tuesday
evening the most important matter
coming before the body was the
consideration of bids for the con.
struction of sanitary sewer in
District No. 3F, in the new Johnson
school district.
But two bids were submitted, that
of c. c. Butler and that of P. Nc
Donnell. In accordance with the
estimate of the city engineer the
bid of Mr.. Butler figured total of
$3O81.9O, while the competitive bid
amounted to $3269.95, difference of
$l87.15, and the work was formally
awarded the lowest bidder.
The ordinance requiring surety
bonds to the city in all sums of
500 or over was given its third
reading and passed by unanimous
vote of all aldermen present.
The ordinance requiring. all city
licenses to be countersigned by the
mayor was also passed.
Several new license applications
and applications for license trans
fers were also presented, all receiv-
ing favora BILE action.
The com mi ttee to whom was re.
ferred the advisability of installing
an improved fire alarm system was
not ready to make full report and
were granted an extension of time
to look into the merits and cost OF
various systems.
