FROM THE IRON RANGE.

have sent the news broadcast through.
out the state that the schools of tile
range would be compelled tho close on
account of it, They have done ,very-
thing possible to enlist the newspapers
OF the state to assist them IN their
work of tax dodging They have used
their little gang of tax dodgers that
are scattered here and there through
out the range to send out down right
falsehoods stating that the people Of
the range We're up i'm arms on this
question, hut be it said for the people
of the range that they have taken no
hand in the matter whatever. They
voted for ii last fall and are satisfied
that 1t is q good thing and are in
hopes that the legislature will pass it
unanimously. 1t is the peoples voice
credly. 1t is this gang that has held
the people of the range up to the rid
lcule for years. The people Of the
range have always had 70 hight them
to get their proper allowance for
school purposes, and it can truthfully
be said that the range has never vet
got their fair share to carry out the
good work. However. the people Of
the range can congratulate themselves
in having on the different school
boards men of intelligence and good
business ability and have accom-
plished more in the interest of educa-
ton with the means at hand than
many of our citizens know of. TO
realize the situation one must first take
into consideration that the range is
composed of fully two-thfrds of for
eisn population and none but those
on tho ground can see and work out
the many trying problems that arise,
I5ut the question is always the same
When the range wants its rights. The
people are compelled to fight the Du-
luth tax dodging gang. However the
juice in the cucumber has been pre-
served by the range people and Will
henceforward be used to bring out
the natural complexion of the ques-
tions at issue. A story was sent out
from Eveleth that the council ordered
all work on paving and grading and
other improvements to be suspended
pending the outcome of the tax amend
1nent. This was three weeks aro It
is false: The council in November did
say that it would not urge paving this
summer; that grading would be Carried
on as it was thought best not to pave
as a. street car system would be in
stalled i'll the near future. The amend
ment was not heard of at that time.
The next move made by the dodgers
was trip to st. Paul. A hearing was
secured before committee of the
Legislature. After spouting out sever

Good Pens and Bad Writing.
From the London Globe.


The boys of the present. day ought to
write. better hand than their prede-
cessors; but it is not in accord with gen.
eral experience that they do SO. Those
whose painful duty 1t is to engage and
supervise junior clerks tell US that when
they were lads they would have been
ashamed to turn out such work as now
daily meets their eyes, and it Is even
whispered that there Is a mysterious con-
nection between badly made pens and in
correct spelling. Now. it is incontestable
that pens are much better made mechani-
cally than in the days when schoolmasters,
or boys used to be taught to fashion goose
quilts into writing implements for them
selves. We have steel pens of every degree
of hardness. to say nothing Of stylos and
fountain pens. Good writing. by which is
meant writing that anybody can read at a
glance, ought to be universal accomplish
ment. Why is it not? Obviously because 1t
is undervalued. Boys are not taught to es-
TEEN highly the power to make their mean
ing plain. And it is not boys only that are
to blame. Half our educated people are
content to inf1ict an almost uncomfortable
task upon everybody who tries to read them
whenever they put pen to paper. The fact
Is that illegible writing Is a moral offense,
and II that were generally recognized life
would go much more easily than 1t does.
The sins that would be saved in bad tenn
per, and perhaps now and the min bad Ian
guage. when people open their letters, are
innumerable.

CHAPTER Xxx.

Frances sent Durkin on alone to the Bar
tholdi, where. he had finally agreed, they
were to take rooms for a week at least
There, she argued. they could live frugally.
and there they could escape from the old
atmosphere. from the old memories and
associations that hour by hour had seemed
to grow more unlovely in her eyes.
On wisely reckless second thoughts she
ran into florists and bought an armful
of roses. These she thrust up into the cab
seat beside him. explaining that he was to
scatter them about their rooms, SO that
he could be in the midst of them when she
came Then she stood at the curb watch
ing him drive off, demanding of herself
whether after all, some Indian summer of
happiness were not due to her. wondering
whether she were still asking too much of
life.
Then she climbed the stairs to the little
top-hoor apartment, saying to herself, COM
pensatingiy. that it would be for the last
time. She felt glad to think that she had
taken from Durkin's hands the burden Of
packing and shutting up the desolate and
dark-memoried little place.
Yet 1t had taken her longer than she
imagined, and she was still STOPPING. with
oddly mixed emotions, over the crumpled
nurses dress and the little hypOdermic that
she carried away from the Van Schaick
house, when she heard a hurried football on
the stairs and the click of q pass-key in
the lock. She realized with start. that
after she had begged him not to.
She ran over toward the door, and then
either petulantly or for some stronger IN
tuitive reason-she could never decide which
stopped short, and waited.
The door opened slowly. AS it swung
back she saw standing before her the huge
figure Of MacNutt.

'sSure It's met he answered CURLY, as he
closed the door and locked 1t behind him.
But, how dare your and she gasped
