!, MINERAL IN PINE COUNTY.

Great Northern Copper Company Rapidly
Developing Its Property.
The reports that mineral abounds
in paying quantities in Pine county
appears to be verified by the fact that
mining companies have commenced
operations at various points. A par
ticularly rich territory is reported
east of Pine City, in the southern part
of the county, where several COM
panies are reported to have struck
valuable deposits of copper.
OF the mining properties: in opera
,tion that of the Great Northern Cop
per company shows the greatest de-
velopment and it is said that ore con-
tanning large percentage of free
copper is being taken out. This CON-
pany is working two big shafts which
are connected by tunnel. Other
shafts will be sunk as the work of
development progresses.
From present indications Pine
county promises to .materialize into
as great copper producing country
as the Michigan peninsula.

week making arrangements to move
the Gravel planning mills to Onamia.
The store building was recently
moved from Vineland to Onamia.
In spite of the excellent weather and
fine condition of the roads this will be
a big undertaking. The saw mill is
situated at Vineland, which is four
teen miles from Onamia. The crew
will begin operations Monday. AS
soon as the buildings are moved work
will be begun to put them in shape for
operations. Plenty of logs are on
hand and saving will be begun some
time this winter, if possible. Work
on the store building is being rapidly
done and it will be open for business
in about ten days or two weeks.
In speaking of the future of the
town of Onamia Mr.. Gravel said that
prospects were bright. It is situated
on the division point between Duluth
and Brooten and is at least thirty five
miles from any Important town.

Have Poor Luck,

Ira and L. I. Stanley, Denny Byers
and Joe Craig returned on Monday
from their deer hunt near Bruno.
They brought back one deer and the
trip cost them 800, or 1926 a quarter
for venison. Even mountain sheep is
cheaper than this in the butcher shops.
Ira claims to have shot the animal
which they had in possession while
standing on a log, from which he
slipped as he fired and discolored one
OF his eyes. Last year, it will be re-
membered, he also stood on a log
and contracted buck fever. LOGS
seem to be hoodoos to Ira and he
should hereafter make effort to avoid
them.

OutliVed Its Usefulness.

When Henry Jopp located at Bogus
Brook in November, 1878, he pur-
chased colt named Frank, aged two
and a half years. Last week Frank
was deprived of life to end it's suffer-
ings. It was then 80 years and 6
months old. Frank had been a good
and faithful servant and when disease
as result of usenility made inroads
into it's physical structure Mr.. Jopp
had not the heart to personally assas-
sinate it. SO last week he induced
Herman Emme to lead Frank into the
woodland and there dispatch it with a
bullet. Mr.. Jopp had tears in his
eyes when, with Herman Emme and
William Klingbeil, he came to the
U ion Office to relate the story of
the execution.

Government to Issue Bonds.

Secretary Cortelyou has announced
that as measure for affording relief
to the financial situation the treasury
would issue S50,0OO,OOO of Panama
bonds and 800, 100000 certificates of
indebtedness, or so much thereof as
may be necessary. The certificates
will bear 3 per cent interest.
Mr.. Cortelyou says that the Panama
bonds will afford the most substantial
relief as the law provides that they
may be used as basis for additional
bank note circulation. He also
states that the proceeds from the sale
of the certificates can be made directly
available at points where the need is
most urgent, and especially for the
movement of the crops.
The bonds will bear interest of 2
per cent per annum, will be dated
Aug. l, 1906, and the interest will be
quarterly on the first days of Novem-
Der, February, May and August.
They will be issued in denominations
of 500, 500 and $1,000 of coupon
bonds, and of 500, 5000, $1,000 and
10000 of registered bonds. They will
be redeemable in United States gold
coin, at the pleasure of the United
States after ten years from the date
of their issue, and will be payable
thirty years from such date. They
will be exempt from all taxes or duties
of the United States, as we'll as from
taxation in any form by or under
state, municipal or. local authority.
They will be available to national
banks as security for circulating notes
upon the same terms as the per cent
consols of 1903. -..E :.

National Guard to be Increased.

Captain G. A. Galley informs the
o n n that the Minnesota National
Guard is now hustling for recruits
and that unless sufficient number be
obtained prior to the first of January
to meet the requirements of the Dick
bill, passed by congress five years
ago, the militia will not be entitled
to the government appropriation.
This bill provides that each regiment
shall have twelve companies with a
minimum strength of So men to each
company, whereas the three regiments
in Minnesota have now but nine CON-
panies with a minimum of 46 men to
each. If the Minnesota National
Guard does not secure this number it
will. either have to make two regi-
ments out of it's three or lose the gov
eminent appropriation.

AT CAMP BULLS.

1ndlan Guide ApprOpriates Rheumatism
Cure and is 1gnominiously Expelled.
News from the deer hunters camp
north of Duluth reached here Mon
day and at that time the boys had
killed eight deer and a mule. The in
formation came from Captain Bulls,
who mailed a letter from Cloouet,
where he went to have a few teeth
jerked.
None of the deer stalkers had been
shot when Andrew wrote, but their
adventures had been numerous and
varied. The first day they we're in
camp an Indian named Catch EN-
Alive called to offer his services as
guide. He was Immediately engaged
and proved of much assistance for a.
day or two, when he was fired for
conducting himself otherwise than
that OF gentleman. In other words,
the Indian was detected in the act of
pilfering the medicine chest. He had
watched the boys upon many occa-
sions go to the chest and drink from
a mysterious bottle labeled 'sRheuma-
tism Cure" and he had heard them
make various EXPLANATIONS as to the
virtue of the mixture, such as, "Je,
that's fine rheumatism medicine!"
"Gosh. that's a wonderful remedy!"
etc. Thus he decided to sample it him.
self when no one was looking. So
we'll did he like the mixture that he
emptied one bottle and was sitting on
the floor draining another when dis
covered. He was also in a maudlin
condition, singing a war song and
calculating ''Me rhoomatix too, me
rhoomatix tool" Then it was that
Catch 'Em-Alive was thrown out into
the cold damp forest and instructed
to vamoose- he did. Ever since
then the boys have lived in fear of
that lnjun and one of the party is on
watch every night with loaded rifle.
Wolves are plentiful in the woods
this year and Magnus Sjoblom was
compelled to pass a night in a tree in
consequence of being chased by a
pack. It was narrow escape, for as
he Skinned up the tree one of the ami
mails jumped and secured a mouthful
of his breaches.
Charley Murray and Abel Holm
also had scare thrown into them
one evening at dusk. They were max
ing for camp when roar came from
behind them which shook them to
their very foundations. Facing
about simultaneously they saw in full
pursuit an animal which they de-
clared to be as big as rhinocerous.
Dropping their guns they fed precipi-
tously and reached camp just ahead of
the monster, which proved to be a
bull belonging to farmer in the next
township. The following day was
consumed in locating their guns.
Other adventures we're related by
Captain Bulls, but they are of minor
Importance.
The boys expect to break camp next

CORPORATION TOOLS AGAINST HIM.


The Interests Want Man for President
Who Will Do Their Bidding,
Senator Hopkins of Illinois and Ro-
ger Sullivan of Chicago in an impulse
of unselfish righteousness have had
Charles K. Ladd, who incidentally is
a corporation attorney, write William
Jennings Bryan long letter, telling
him why he should not be candidate
for the presidency.
Mr.. Byran doubtless appreciates
the disinterested attitude of these
gentlemen and their delicacy in not
writing themselves, as if they had
done so he would have been obliged
to fumigate the letter before reading
it.. His opinion of them and of the
interests which they represent are we'll
known, as Mr.. Bryan is not mincer
of words in speaking of such persons.
To a republican this effort of the
democratic tail to wag the democratic
dog is highly interesting. Yet it has
not been wholly unknown to succeed
in politics, especially where, as in
this instance, the tail represents the
financial resources and Mr.. Bryan
only represents the voters.
Tammany also does not want Mr..
Bryan as a candidate neither does
Mr.. Belmont, nor Mr.. Ryan nor any
of that especially "safe and sane"
element of the party. They would
much prefer another Judge Parker or
some one who they would be sure
would not break through to the pas
lures reserved for their angelic feet.
They are sure Mr.. Bryan cannot be
elected. Why? Because they will not
support him, vote for him nor finance
his campaign. This being the case,
it certainly is very magnanimous in
them to let him know it in advance,
so that he can withdraw and support
a man of their selection.
TO be sure, this man would be an
tagonistic to all the policies and
principles Mr.. Bryan advocates, and
would be under those influences he
has most bitterly condemned, but if
these men will not support Mr.. Bryan,
who represents ninety per Gently of the
voting strength of the party, why then
he must support them and take the
ninety per cent to the service of the
ten per cent.
The cry for harmony from such
men as Sullivan and Murphy always
means demand for surrender. They
will yield nothing, but demand all.
Mr.. Bryan has the ardent admiration
of nine-tenths of all democrats, and
he is the only democrat who could
command in any possible event any
considerable republican vote, for
republicans concede his honesty of
purpose and sincerity. He is the only
democrat who would have ghost of
chance of election. No one trusts
his opponents, and yet they ask con-
troll in the name of "harmonv." D.

Boom lOr La Toilette.

1t was an enthusiastic gathering
that assembled in the banqueting hall
OF the st. Paul Commercial club to
greet Senator La Toilette. But much
to the disappointment of many who
had come purposely to see and hear
Wisconsin's favorite son he could not
be present. There were some SIREN
uous friends and advocates of the SEN
ator there, however, who eloquently
and persuasively plead his cause.
After the banquet, at which over
four hundred feasted, Hon. James A.
Peterson, who presided, paid high
tribute to the worth and ability of
Senator La Toilette. Henry Cochems
of Milwaukee also eulogized the
Badger senator. The speech of the
evening was made by former
Speaker Lenroot of the Wisconsin
legislature. 1t was a carefully pre-
pared address and was delivered in a
forceful and convincing manner. Mr..
Lenroot covered Senator La Fol-
lette's career from his election as
prosecuting attorney of Dane county
down tozthe present time.
J. G. Applegate of Cannon Falls,
Lieut.. Gov. Eberhardt and A. L.
Ward Of Fairmont were among the
Minnesotans who talked. Mr.. Apple
gates remarks were brief but pointed
and what he said was we'll received by
the audience. Nearly half of those
present we're young men and they
vigorously applauded every mention
of Senator La Toilette. At the close
of the speaking committees we're ap-
pointed to further the cause of the
Wisconsin senator in this state.
Judging from the enthusiasm dis
played at the banquet it would not be
a difficult matter to awaken such a
sentiment for La Toilette in this state
as might secure him favorable dele
cation to the national convention.

PRINCETONS D0WNED
Monticellos Tear Up Sod With T heir
Opponents and Prevent Them
From Scoring a Point.
Game Exciting From Start to Finish
and Both Teams Take Some
Rattllng Good Plays.

Princeton's high school eleven,
accompanied by goodly number of
leather-lunged rooters, drove to Mon
ticello on Saturday morning and
tackled the enemy-Monticello' high
school team-on it's own gridiron.
The Princetons were not, however, so
fortunate as upon previous occasions
the Monticellos wiping up the sod
with them and making a score of II
to the visitors goose egg. The defeat
was largely attributable to the long
drive across country in the cold morn
ing air which put considerable stiff
ness into the limbs of our boys.
They fought hard, however, and the
game throughout was a most exciting
one. A brief story of the contest fol-
lows:
At 3 O'Clock the game was called
and Monticello kicked off to Prince
ton, LEM grasping the pigskin and
carrying it far into the Monticello
territory, where it was finally recov-
cred by Miller. The sides then lined
up and by a double pass Shaw got
within ten yards of the goal with the
ball when he was tackled and COM
PEELED to let go. Failing to make the
ten yards in three downs Monticello
got the ball when it was within one
yard of the goal and finally gave it to
Baker for an end run, but Angstman
tackled and broke through the line
time after time. Princeton threw
Monticello for loss on the next
down, but on the second down Baker
broke through for touchdown, MISS
ing goal, however. Score, to 0.
Princeton kicked to Monticello.
The quarterback received the ball
and carried it one yard, when he was
tackled by Burke. Monticello failed
to make it's ten yards and Princeton
then obtained the ball. After two
downs and no gain on the part of
Princeton the ball was given.toz Berg
for punt. Berg kicked it 80 yards
to Miller, who was then downed in his
tracks by flying tackle made by
Angstman. End of first half. Score
s to 0.
Second half-Princeton kicked to
Monticello, but tackle by Shaw
threw Monticello's man out of bounds.
Brought to play again Monticello,
by line bucks and end runs, made the
second touchdown and kicked goal.
Score, II to o.
Monticello kicked off to Princeton
and Shaw got the pigskin. He made
a double pass to LEM, who fumbled
but recovered in time to make short
gain. He was downed however, by
Monticello's center. After a failure
to make ten yards in three downs
Monticello got the ball and, as usual,
by end runs and line bucks, scored
the third touchdown and goal.
Score, II to O.
Two minutes more of play and
Monticello kicked to Angstman, who
played through with determination
but failed to break away. Lining up,
LEM was put through the line for
gains of not less than five yards at a
time. Time was called and the game
ended. Score, II to O..
