RECORD YEAR ON THE RANGE

<
Roads Haul More iron Ore Than Ever
Before.
The season Of 1909 was the great
est in the history of the two range
railroads and all records for the ports
of Duluth and Two Harbors were
broken
The greatest year in the history of
the roads, up to the present time, was
1907, when the high water mark for
ore shipments was reached. During
that year the Duluth, Missabe and
Northern road shipped ,977 tons
OF ore from the port of Duluth. Last
year showed a great falling off, only
S,80S,168 tons being shipped, but the
road came back this year and broke
the 1907 record by scant 25, 900 tons
The total shipments for 1909 were 49,.
47O,503 tons.
The Duluth and Iron Range railroad
showed an even greater increase over
its former record. In 1907 the road
shipped from Two Harbors 8,2O5 ,99s
tons. Last year it fell off to sos,
$40 tons, but this year it came back
with close to 100000 tons.

News Of Especial interest to
Minnesota Readers,
CONDITIONS NOT YET NORMAL
Governor Eberhart Investigating
Strike Situation.

Apparently there is nothing serious
in the strike situation as far as the
supply of the necessaries of life is
concerned" said Governor Eberhart
as he sat by table piled high with
reports and letters bearing on the
strike situation. He had been busy
the greater part of the day going
through the reports, talking to ship
pers by telephone and listening to
strikers and representatives of the
state labor bureau and the state rail
road commission.
Conditions are not near normal"
he continued, "but if the strikers were
to go back to work today and the
roads start with their old force it
would still be three or four weeks be-
fore conditions would be entirely nor
NAL. However, conditions are improv-
ing gradually"
The governor in his effort to learn
the true situation does not depend on
the reports and information furnished
by the strikers and railroads, but in
tends to go to the shippers and deal

are suffering from the strike. The in
spectors in the state labor bureau
have been getting information from
shippers, and the railroad commits.
sion's employees are doing likewise.
Some of the labor inspectors have
been sent out over the state, going
from town to town along the Great
Northern and the Northern Pacific to
learn conditions. In short time they
can find out from the coal dealers,
grain buyers and storekeepers just
how much trouble they are having in
getting freight in and out.
The strikers are also making re-
ports of how freight is being handled
and the governor is comparing these
with the reports furnished by the rail
road and labor commissions. From
these he hopes to find out soon what
the real situation is and then take &C.
ton if it is demanded by conditions.
The railroad commissioners are
busy attending to complaints of ship
pers and receivers who had a car or
cars delayed by the strike. They said
that wherever particular case is
called to the attention of the GONNA
MES speedy relief is given.
