that time-even to the means of
exit from the tangles which beset

it being related Of Mr.. Armstrong
and the guide who "planted" him
on his homestead that after looking
over the prospective vineyard they
gotlost in their attempt to get out of
the woods and finally ran onto a
drove of cattle owned by Tom
Gowan, who conducted logging
operations in the north country at
the time, following the bovine lead
ers for a night and a day and finally
striking civilization after a weary
tramp of many miles. Today Mr..
Armstrong, who is one OF those
honest farmers aud took the land
for it's actual value, has fine build.

DRILL FAMOUS VIRGINIA SliNER.
N. 4. Hanna & Co. SeCurs Option or
land and Put Drills at Work.

N. A. Hanna & Co., the Cleveland
ore dealers, have secured the option
to the famous Virginia Silver, CON-
prising township 5819, decision in
which case was recorded in The
Enterprise of last issue, and will at
once thoroughly explore same, this
week putting on drills from the
Nelson Exploration Co. Of Duluth
and expecting to place several
Longyear drills on the property at
an early date.
The first work on the land will be
in the neighborhood of the Wilson
home on the land, just north of the
Sauntry pit, and while 80 far as
known no work of consequence has
ever been done on the property the
proving of the ore body on the
Sauntry to the south and on the
Hill lands to the north has virtual
ly proven the value of the eastern
end of the strip, at least, for miner
al purposes. Under the terms of
the option as given to Hanna & Co.
the land will be thoroughly ex-
plored and is destined to become
one of the active propositions of
the Virginia group from this time
on.
In connection with the opening
of this property, which for many
years has been tied up in the courts,
it is also understood that the steel
corporation. plan extensive work at
the idle district north of the city.

Will Teach Them Riaht Jhiaas.

Prominent Firms in the copper
country of Michigan have formed
an association for the political
education of their countrymen who
are just over. Their aim is to show
them the difference between the ad-
ministration of America and Fin.
land. 1t ia good thing and it is
needed. The Firms are prone to
carry red flags aud to get into the
wrong column. OF late we have
been hearing much OF this sort of
thing of them. It is we'll to educate
them as to the difference in their
conditions here and abroad. The
Finn is generally a good worker
and pays his bills. But. due to his
education politically in his native
land, he believes he should be
against the government. We are
glad the progressive Finus of the
copper country have combined to
teach their people the right things
in connection with this, the grand

ROMANCES OF RICHES
Ia the mesaba Range are Retold by
William E. Curtis.

Under Hibbing date line, Viii.
liam f. Curtis had an article in the
Chicago Record Herald Monday. in
which he said:
"Somebody ought to collect all
the romances of the Mesaba range
and put them into a book before it
is too late to get the material fret
hand. Never we're there more
fantastic freaks of fate than in the
early history of this great reservoir
OF wealth, and the number of men
who voluntarily lodged great for
tunes that pursued them in connec-
ton with the development of this
range was never 80 great in South
Africa or in any other part of the
universe. The stories that are told
of the Indifference of men of ex-
perience in the iron industry to the
opportunities offered here are al.
most incredible. Men who had seen
one new mining district after
another discovered and developed
and had spent all their lives in that
business were 80 short.sighted and
skeptical as to reject opportunities
repeatedly offered them. The prom.
ises were 80 fabulous that they had
paid no attention to them. Portions
of this solid mass of wealth were
offered vainly at nominal cost at
the headquarters of the iron trade
in Pittsburg. Cleveland, Chicago
and other places and the blindness
of human nature even repelled the
greatest opportunities ever thrust
upon human beings. Several iron
manufacturers refused to accept
some of those valuable deposits
as gift. On the other hand
"a dozen or more fortunate in.
dividuals who happened to own
timber land along the range were
shrewd enough to make contracts
on royalty basis for the develop
ment of their property and eve,
since have heen drawing enormous
dividends on Easy street."
Mr.. Curtis then relates a numbe,
OF stories concerning those wh<
made large fortunes by their dis
coveries or by reason of owning
land bought originally for 1t,
timber.

The many Virginia friends of Mr..

Tuesday of Mrs. Mulligan being
stricken with paralysis, her entire
left side being affected.
Mrs. Mulligan was stricken while
in the bath room at her home, and
when found by members of her
family was in a helpless condition.
Her ultimate recovery is confident
ly expected by her physicians, but
it will doubtless be months before
she regains the use of her left side.

of Desire to Run for Mayor.
In the last issue of the Virginian,
followed by articles in the Duluth
dailies, was announced that J. G.
Maattala was to become candidate
for mayor at the coming municipal
election, but this statement is en-
phatically' refuted by Mr.. Maattala,
who brands the rumor as false in
every particular.
In speaking of the coming con-
test Mr.. Maattala states that he con-
siders himself too new a conner to
the city to listen to the idea of be-
coming political leader, and that
although he has been asked by
number of his fellow countrymen
to accept of place on the ticket he
has repeatedly declined the invita-
tion to allow his name to be used in
such connection.

it became necessary to take several
