The Virginia enterprise., 1908-08-14

AT the present time all the county
offices are held by residents of Du.
luth with the exception of the office
of register of deeds, held by NJ. c.
Palmer of Virginia. County Super
intendent of Schools S. w. Gilpin is
also resident of Virginia but the
law provides that the incumbent of
this Office must reside outside OF
Duluth. Thus the iron ranges,
which cast the majority of the re-
publican vote of the county, have
but one representative in the St.
Louis county court house.
1t is only matter of fair play
that the county outside of Duluth
should be better recognized. To Sc
cure that recognition it is simply
necessary that the iron ranges
stand together. The election of Mr..
Pfremmer over the Duluth candi-
date can be easily accomplished if
the ranges demand it. Mr.. Ptrem-
mer's election once secured through
the united efforts of the ranges, the
way is opened for the ranges to se-
cure more equitable treatment from
Duluth than it has enjoyed in the
past. With the ranges once united,
Duluth will hasten to be good, and
many things which have in the
past been asked for in vain, will be
handed to us without an effort on
our part.
It is only natural that Duluth
should take all that it can get but
once Duluth understands that the
The Virginia enterprise., 1908-08-14

ranges have united in the determi-
nation to get their rights 1t will not
be slow to appreciate the necessity
of meeting us atleast half way.
The newspapers of the ranges
have been unanimous in their
support of Mr.. Pfremmer and the
Enterprise believes that they reflect
the sentiment of their respective
clientele and that this movement
for united range in matters of
common interest is bound to result
in a notab bic harvest of benefits in
the near future.
