CHISHOLM
DESTROYED
Disastrous Fire Sweeps the
Mesaba Town
Entire City Laid in Ruins
Saturday


One of the most disastrous cat
aStropheS that has ever befallen
the range country happened Satur-
day when forest fires encroached
on the city of Chisholm and in less
than 1t takes to recount the thrill
ling experience, all was laid in
ruins. Only few buildings were
left standing, the property loss
being estimated at S., , 500, 900, luck
lily no lives were lost.
The neighboring towns and Du-
luth, III fact the entire state, at
once took measures for the relief of
the unfortunate inhabitants who
were made destitute and at the
present writing supplies and money
are pouring in to aid those in dis
treSS.
The citizens here called a meet
ing at once and committees were
named to gather contributions.
The committees are meeting with
excellent success and Ely will add
its mite towards aiding those in
need. The committees are COM
posed of Chas. Grabowsky, T. H.
Williams and J. E. Cosgrove for
the mines; Grant McMahan, John
E. Porthan, Mayor Murphy, L. B.
Brockway and Henry Chinn for
the city. These committees will
receive donations of supplies and
cash and it is expected that those
approached will be as liberal as
possible.
Buhl, Hibbing and other towns
on the Mesaba reported in danger
are in fair condition and nothing
but a heavy wind will again put
them in immediate peril.
Forest fires are raging in the
entire northwest and unless heavy
fall of rain comes soon much more
damage will result. Ely is sur
rounded by fires but no immediate
danger is anticipated. However,
it will be well to be on guard.

JOHN Il. NORTON.

Mr.. Norton has held the Office
for the past term and comes be-
fore the people seeking the re-
nomination and election. During
his incumbency he has given the
office careful attention with the re-
suit that it has been properly con-
Quoted. He has not labored under
the delusion that the public prose
cutor securing the most convic-
tions is the best man, but, that ev-
eryone should have every reason
able chance to prove their inno-
cehce and instead of being ''per-
secutor" he has been a ''prosecu-
tor" in every sense that the term
implies. He is a man of keen

WORKINGMEN SEE NO
WELCOME FROM CHURCH

The Rev. James l.. Gardiner. In the
second OF his series of sermons to
workingmen, in Tabernacle Methodist
church. Sunday night, said that 70
per cent OF the scores of men who re-
piled to his question, Does the church
OF today want the workingman?" an
swered IN the negative. They found
no fault with the church as estab-
lished by Jesus Christ. but claimed
that the church Of today does not
preach or practice the principles laid
down by our Saviour In his sermon
on the Mount, and that the church
L. conducted in the interests OF the
classes. not the masses; OF the few,
not the many; of the rich, and not of
the workingman.
Jesus Christ did not condemn men
simply because they were rich" said
Mr.. Gardiner. HE had no word to
say against the man who accumulated
wealth honestly and let 1t go forth
usefully and freely, but when a man
In his eagerness to amass fortune
trampled the golden rule under his
foot and ground the poor In the dust.
then Jesus spoke loudly and vehe-
mently saying--Ye cannot serve God
and Mammon.'
