For an Income Tax.

Believing that all should pay proper

Congress to levy and to collect tax upon
individual and corporate incomes to the

Of the burdens Of the federal government
Notwithstanding the republican party
has been In continuous power in this state

for over two years suffering from bust

souri, at the next session of congress Will
champion a measure intended to change the
name of Lafayette square to Independence
square and he will ask that the memorial to
Gen jackson, which stands in the center OF
the park shall be replaced by one OF George
Washington. Mr. Bartholdt thinks that the
name Lafayette square gives too much promi-
nence to a man of one nationality, while there
were men of other nationalities also to be re-
membered by statues in the park who gave
just as much service to the struggling colonies.
The Missouri congressman thinks that In
sense Lafayette square makes an invidious
distinction. Lafayette holds a peculiar place
in the affections of Americans. and though 1t
may be without right or reason. he is known
much better to the people than either Steuben
or Pulaski. There will be opposition to the
change in the name Of the square. but as La
fayette is remembered In bronze at It's most
commanding corner it may be that Mr.. Bar
tholdt is right in contending that the double
honor is too much to give one man.
General Steuben's service to the Ameriean
patriots hardly can be estimated. It was not
much his aid in actual battle his teach
ing of drill regulations and tactics and his I'M
parting to the revolutionary officers OF the art
of maintaining efficient discipline that brought
him fame and the honor Of the leaders Of tbs
revolutionary cause.

building from the south.
and 1t Is one of the most
notable public memorials in
the city of Washington, al
though it is true that fault
has been found with a few
minor details OF the execu-
ton.
Sheridan's statue, repre-
senting Little Phil" as he
appeared at the battle of
Winchester when rallying
his troops to turn again to
the attack, stands in a lit
tie green circle on Massa-
chusetts avenue. The Sher-
idan memorial has been in
place less than a year. The
widow of the Shenandoah
campaigner lives in a house
the windows of which over
look the memorial of her
husband.
1t is curious perhaps that
the memorials to the three
greatest generals of the
civil war who fought on the
side of the north were not
erected until many years
after soldiers of less fame
had been remembered. The
statue of Gen. Mcpherson
has stood for years in the
public square named for
this soldier. who was killed
in the battle of Atlanta
Gen. Thomas "the rock Of
Chickamauga," was remem-
bered in bronze nearly 20

NIGHT SHIFT
Pioneer Puts on Night Crew
Last Wednesday

For the first time in two years
the welcome sounnd of the Pioneer
night shift whistle was heard
Wednesday night at IL O'Clock.
The sound was certainly most
welcome one as it betokened in
creased activity at this great mine
and the consequent employment of
more men with the ultimate return
to better conditions in Ely and
vicinity.
The closing down of the night
shift was felt hard two years ago
when the force at the Pioneer was
curtailed to half. The resumption
puts better tone on the prospects
for next year if not for this.
The mine management states
that only a few men were put on
development work but they ex-
pected that this would lead shortly
to night mining with the attendant
increase in the number of men
employed.
The news is most pleasing to all
our people.

Buy More Cars

At least 5000 additional ore cars
will be in commission on the Min
nesota ranges next season. The
Duluth Missabe & Northern is
figuring on buying at least l 900
and the Duluth & Iron Range is
figuring on the same number. The
Great Northern already has ordered
1000 cars.
The Automatic Unloading Car
Co., of Duluth, are in the field for
their share of the order and repre-
sentatives of various car compan-
les were in Duluth last week look
ing after the interests of their con-
Germs. The merits of the respective
ore cars will of course, be closely
scrutinized. The officers of ore
railroads give much of their atten-
ton to the study of cars which
for dispatch and economy of oper-
alton. In handling of millions of
tons per season the possibilities for
lossor saving are enormous, reckon
ed in dollars and in time, which is
also money under the circum-
stances.
Next season is going to witness
the handling of more iron ore in
the Lake Superior region than ever
before in any single season. That
much is already understood and
definitely known. The necessity
for additional equipment confronts
the big ore carrying roads to meet
the increased tonnage and to re-
place worn out rolling stock.

SHIPMENTS OF ORE
Heavier This Season Than
Last

The last shipment of ore from
here went to Two Harbors Satur-
day when thirty-fve cars were sent
forward from the Zenith mine.
The shipments from here this
year were much larger than those
of last year.
The pusher engines at Tower
Junction and Embarrass have been
taken off for the season and the night
telegraph Offices at Ely, Tower
Junction, Embarrass, Biwabik, at
the ore docks and Fayal laboratory
have been closed.
Fifty million tons of iron ore will
be shipped from the Lake Superior
district next year, according to an
estimate given out in Detroit this
week by William Livingstone,
president of the Lake Carriers
association. In anticipation of an
unusually heavy movement of ore,
the shipbuilding plants are being
rushed with orders for boats for
winter and early spring delivery.
AS soon as navigation opens
next season." says Mr.. Living
stone, all the boats on the lakes
will find business. From the start
ore rates will be at least IS cents.
The furnaces of the lower lakes are
beginning to eat away the piles of
ore they have on the DOCKS
One of the largest shippers on
the lakes makes the statement that
he will not be surprised if the bulk
of the ore that will be sent forward
from the mines in the Lake Super
ior district in 1910 is sold before
the first of the year and that most
of the season chartering in that line
will have been done by that time.

1910 PROMISES TO Be A DANDY.

Iron is king in the Lake Superior
region. The grim old monarch first
established his domain OH the his
toric Marquette range, In due
time he annexed the Gogebic and
Menominee ranges, all on the
southerly side of the saltless sea.
Penetrating the trackless wilds of
Northern Minnesota the Vermilion
range was discovered and subdued.
The theory shattering Mesaba range
next was conquered and there high
carnival held sway many years.
Magnetic weapons compelled the
youthful Guyana range to pass
under the yoke whilst bilious
knockers were endorsed in sturdy
jousts. During the good old sum-
mer time just passed, the virile
ruler of the age laid serious siege
to the heart of buxom Dame Nature
away up north on the Nameukan
range and something may happen
there yet in the months to come.
Now, after many years of cold
neglect, old King Iron is returning
gaily and joyously to his peerless
realm on the Vernilion range
where he promises to have his
favorite haunts for many years to
come.
Not only has the iron king an
nounced his firm determination to
again maintain his gay court on
the. rnatchless Vermilion but, as a
result of announcement of royal
will, former subjects and retainers
are returning from other lands and
more distant domains.
Those valiant knights, who
followed King Copper at first with
requirement of pelf and profit, have
tired of the losing fight and griev-
Gus wounds. Back they are coming
to the unconquerable master who
first gave them gain. Many who
carried away sack and booty to
invest it in the realms of gold and
zinc and other strange lands, now
are turning their faces and footsteps
to the. iron realms of the northerly
shore of Lake Superior.
George c. Stone, George Stuntz,
Capt. Pratt, the senior Tower,
Jimmy James, John Pengilly and
Elisha Morcom and other valiant
knights who have Jared to the land
beyond and will not come back.
But Thomas F. Cole and J. B.
Cotton want more lion in their
systems and are endeavoring to shy
their casters into the ring on the
Vermilion range.
David T. Admas has tired of
joust with gold and copper in dis
tant lands and again is lining up
with the ironclad knights in the
North Star state.
Johnny T. Jones has not yet APP
peared, but he is expected as soon
as his iron furnace, is perfected.
Louis Rouchleau must be tired OF
hearing the -four mill wheels &c
round in Minneapolis and no one
need be surprised if he steps off the
train as soon as his copper schemes
are convalescent. /
Joseph Sellwood is credited with
rubbing his eyes and slyly, looking
