the floor of the Senate, and heard
Senator Bailey.
Senator Simmons Interrupted Sena-
tor Bailey in his argument in support
of the duty on iron ore and gave some
interesting facts in answer to the
statement that the United States Steel
Corporation owned 80 per cent. of the
iron ore in the country He read a
statement of that company showing
that it owned one billion seven hun
dred million tons of available iron ore
and six hundred million tons of nom
available iron ore, and also a state
ment prepared for the conservation
commission of the United States Geo
logical Survey, estimating the total
| available iron ore of the country at
four billion eight hundred million
| tons, showing that the non-available
iron ore at sixty-nine million tons,
showing that of the available ore, that
| is such, is under present conditions
of transportation, etc, can be profita-
| bly, worked, the United States Steel
| Company, known as the "Steel Trust

According to advices from Pierre,
the first annual report of State Bee
Inspector L. A. Syverud has been filed
with Governor Vessey, showing that
for the past summer he inspected six
ty apiaries in the southeastern part
Of the state. These apiaries contain
ed 851 colonies, and out of these he
found 705 to be in healthy condition.
146 colonies were more or less affected
with "foul BROOD" and seven were in
such condition he ordered them to
be destroyed. The expenses of the
work for the summer were in round
numbers one hundred dollars. AS the
county auditors have not as yet re-
ported their collections of the bee
fund to the state auditor, it cannot
be said just how much the tax of ten
cents annually on each colony will
bring in to meet this cost of inspecr
tion,
