TAX AMENDMENT
Wiped Out by Large Margin
in State.

Last week the ballot inspectors ap-
pointed by the district court of this
county to recount the votes cast on
the tax amendment at the last gen.
eral election passed the mark esSab-
fishing the fact that the tax amend
ment was lost instead of carried, as
announced by the state board of can
vassers on the original count of the
votes.
A total of $4,000 votes originally
counted in favor of the amendment
were enormously credited. and the tax
amendment, instead of being carried
by 1880 votes, as announced by the
state canvassing board, has lost IA, 1000
votes so far, and the recount is not
completed.
Although the inspectors have es.
tablished the fact that a big mistake
was made by the election clerks all
over the state in regard to the official
count of the votes on the tax and the
good roads amendments, the recount
is not to be stopped right away. In
fact the inspectors are now making a
recount of the votes on the amend
ment in Aitkin county and will, later,
perform the same work at Wadena.

Fierce Lightning.

Last week, Thursday night. light
ming did some things at Tower. Dur
ing the afternoon it played little
havoc in this city, striking the water
tank and the residence of Jos. Hill.
At Tower the lightning struck the
Johnson house, almost completely de-
molishing the furniture, and carpets
and plastering of one room, while at
Albert Weinzierl's, the adjoining
building, the dining room plastering
was torn down and the furniture
marred, and number of dishes
broken. Neither Of the places were
set afire, and man sleeping in the
room at the Johnson house was unin-
jured. A heavy downpour of rain fol-
lowed the electrical storm and lasted
for couple of hours.

THE BACHELORS
DO BUSINESS
Win from the Married Men
in Uninteresting Game.

The long drawn out controversy as
to whether marriage was conducive to
good ball paying or whether single
blessedness was it," was settled Sun
day when nine innings of very ragged
base ball was pulled off on the local
field by mines composed of married
men on one side and single men on
the other.
The game demonstrated without
doubt that the married men, at least
those that played Sunday, were woe
fully weak, insofar as the National
game was concerned, and that the
bachelors had them going some. With
two or three exceptions, the married
men could have secured pointers from
the third nine of the corner lot league.
However, the young fellows need not
get all pulled up. as they also put up
somewhat ragged game, the differ
ence being they did not have the dis
astrous luck that characterized the
playing of their benedict brothers.
Whether it was the work of the
pitchers or the extraordinary poor
batting of the teams. the men went
out in one, two. three order. Sera-
phine was in the box for the married
men and McCurdy on the bill for the
bachelors. TO the credit of both it
must be said they played the larger
part of the game, assisted valiantly
by the catchers. The bachelors had
far the best team, and it was only
through an error that the married
men secured their lonely one run.
while the bachelors piled up total of
ten scores.
1t is to be hoped that the married
men will pick up better nine in the
near future and play the game right.
The games are a source of much
amusement to our people, and the
wishes for more games are general.
The chances are that the Pioneer
nine and the Fire Department boys
will soon again play game.

Meeting Called Off.

The meeting Of the Lake Superior
Mining institute has been called off
as a result of the strike of the ore
laborers, which has tied up min
ing operations on the Minnesota
ranges. The meeting was to have
been held next week.
Formal notice of the postponement
comes from the mining men who had
charge of the arrangements and is as
follows:
"Owing to the fact that ore docks
at the Head of the Lakes are idle and
mining operations suspended, it has
been decided to indefinitely postpone
the meeting of the Lake Superior Min
ing institute that was called to meet
at Duluth and on the range from July
"a to 81"

A True Account.

In wedding writeup in Nebraska
paper appears the following: cit was
a delightful affair for all and a relief
for the brides father, who is poor
Woodworking man. The groom is
tall, handsome fellow and should not
be blamed for his brother being in the
penitentiary for horse stealing. Miss
Katie looked beautiful, wearing
large red hair ribbon in her locks, and
the groom has whiskers."

has been rather alarming the past few
days. While it is claimed that only
10 per cent of the large forces en-
ployed are out, it nevertheless remains
a fact that with their threats and
show of strength, the 10 per cent has
intimidated a large number, so much
SO that all the mines are idle.
Protection is being furnished, how
ever, and many of the properties will
probably be working before the end of
the week. Hibbing, Coleraine and
Bovey have adopted resolutions
couched in unmistakable language of
an unhealthy sort to any outside in
reference.
The Ely miner. [volume] (Ely, Minn.) 1895-1986, 1907-07-26

WHEREAS, The peace and digni-
ty of our city is threatened by
small body Of agitators, most Of
whom are not residents of our city,
and are not citizens of our great
and glorious country; who labor to
stir up strife and discord among
the laboring men of our mines, and,
WHEREAS, The men who work
in the mines are better paid now
than ever before In the history of
our city, are happy and contented
and desire to remain at work, and
not be subjected to violence and
Intimidation in going to and from
their work.
THEREFORE,, Be it resolved, by
the people here assembled in mass

protection for his family. as there was
ample strength in the city to procure
protection for every working man. He
called attention to the fact that when
the ore docks at Two Harbors closed
down, that would have afforded
the mining company an excuse
to shut down the mines in this
district, but they had not done so. He
said this had not been done with the
view of the profits that would accrue
from the mines being in operation.
but simply to keep their men together
and allow every law abiding citizen to
make their living. He said that in
view of the wages that were now
being paid at the mines he thought it
best for every man to stick to his job,
as if they quit now, the way things
are looking, they would have to work
for a great deal less wages when they
were ready to go back again. He said
he thought that to be the honest
opinion of the men who stood before
him who had ever been in any strikes
and witnessed the disastrous results
that are always sure to follow.
Geo. L. Brozich was next intro
duced, the most of his speech being in
Austrian. He urged the Austrians to
stand firm, as they have been doing
since the strike began, and that every
citizen of law and order would be on
their side. Mr.. Brozich spoke on the
same lines as those followed by the
previous speakers, and his remarks
were followed by yociferous applaus.
John E. Porthan followed. He
stated that the people of Ely were
laboring under false impression he
was DESTROYS of correcting. He said
they 1.-THE people of Ely thought that
the Firms were responsible for the
strike and that most of them were
Socialists. He said that such was not
the case, and the trouble was being
caused by very small percentage,
and that 95 per cent of the Films en-
ployed in the mines and about the
city, were not in sympathy with the
strikers; were we'll satisfied with tine
existing conditions, and were DESTROYS
of continuing work unmolested. Mr..
Porthan then spoke in Finnish to his
countrymen, whom he urged to look
at the matter in the proper light,
stick to their jobs and uphold law and
order. He urged that they make no
displays of red flags. as the citizens of
Ely were prepared to nip in the bud
any attempt at lawlessness of this
kind.
Mayor Weinzierl then appointed
Peter Schaefer, f. L. Cowen, A. S.
James, Grant McMahan and John e.
Porthan committee on resolutions.
The committee reported the following
and moved their adoption. The mo-
ton to adopt was supported by a
dozen or more, and upon being put
was carried with a shout. Not a dis
senting voice was heard. The resolu-
tionS were worded as follows:

10 extend aid far its means will allow
and do it in the most practical manner.
Chief among these associations for charity
is the London City Mission, which is largely
supported by the Church of England,
though it cannot be called purely a denom-
national society. 1t has All mission work
ers on its regular staff, but their greatest
work is not the spread of the gospel. That
is only an incident. The main idea is to
better the persons condition first, the rest
will take care Of itself. House to house
visitatons are the basis for the society's
work. and thus the worst cases are reached.
1t has its mission halls, to be sure, but
most of the expenditures go directly into
the homes, and the missionaries vie with
each other in getting the most good from
the least money. One tells how last winter
