WHAT IS THE MATTER?

AT the request of Il silver advocate,
Secretary Root made an official requ est
to all American consuls in silver
countries, to supply statements of the
condition of American trade in those
countries. Every one, of course, re-
sponded, and every one from Japan.
China and India reported that the
American export trade was dead; from
Turkey, Egypt and other countries, the
reports We're that the American exports
to those countries were greatly curtailed
and were growing less and less.
Those reports are on file in the State
Department ut Washington, AMI have
been now for Il year and half, but
there Is not congressman who seems
to have the courage to refer to them;
not one of the great dailies of the east
has ever dared to refer to them.

annual message. One wonders why,

which was bonnd, in effect, to close orr

Olof Knutson Chosen Mayor of Ely at Last
Tuesdays Election.
Chinn Wins Out for Treasured and Kolstad
Gets AssessorsEip

The city election Tuesday was
devoid of any sensational features
and went to prove that the voter
knew WHARF, he was at. The only
feature of the vote was the spec
tacular run Of Olof knutson for
mayor, lie being pitted against
Ex-Mayor Mike Weinzierl and
Matt Sprietzer the manager of the
Ely Labor Mercantile company.
Mr.. Knutson ran some and then
some more. His friends, before
election, while confident of his
ultimate success, figured close
run between himself and Mr.. Vein
zierl. His popularity was attested
to by the magnanimous vote re-
ceived. In the choosing of Mr..
Knutson as its head, the city has
acted wisely. He has been identi-
fed with city affairs since 1905 in
an aldermanic position, being act

was also reelected without oppo-
sition. While Mr.. Brozich had
only few occasions to act as judge
during the pas, year of his incumb-
ency, the cases handled by him
were evidently decided satisfact-
orily as no opposition developed.
Assessor Frank Hodge who was
a candidate for reelection was de-
feated by Albert Kolstad with
Arthur Sheridan third in the race.
The new assessor has been en-
gagged in the plumbing business
here for several years and has
many friends in the city who are
pleased over the recognition shown
him.

by his inability, legally, to get off
the ballot after filing his nomina-
ton papers. While Mr.. Childer5'
name was on the ballot he was not
an aggressive candidate and the
votes secured by him were more on
the complimentary order. Mr..
Chinn, the neWly-elected treasurer,
has grown to manhood in Ely and
the vote received by him shows his
popularity.
Judge Thomas Jury was re-elect-
ed without opposition. This will
make Judge Jury S second term on
the municipal bench. That his
regime has been satisfactory dur
ing the past year was evidenced by
the lack of opposition against his
nomin alton and election

ing mayor part of the time and a
member of the most prominent
committees. He knows the needs
of the city in its every branch and
it is foregone conclusion that he
will give Ely business admins
tration in step with its growing
needs. Mr.. Knutson has been a
resident here for twenty years or
more and his election to the hon
ored position as mayor is but fit
ting tribute to his worth as a citi-
zen and an appreciation of his eff
forts in the past in behalf of the
city.

SORROWFUL AFFAIR
State Game Warden Fred B. James Shoots
Andrew Metsapelto.
James Claims Shooting was Accidental
Bound Over to Grand Jury.

Monday evening shortly before
E O'Clock, the citizens were startled
by the report that Fred B. James.
state deputy game warden, had
shot and killed Andrew Metsapelto
near the boat houses on the banks
of Long Lake.
The rumor proved true insofar
as the shooting had occurred but
the man died later at the Shipman
hospital where he had been taken.
The story of the affair as told by
MIR. James was about as follows:
The warden had been spending
considerable time on the lake re-
Gently having been informed that
considerable netting was being
done. Monday he went to the
lake at 4 O'Clock in the morn
ing and remained there until after
the shooting. Himself and J. H.
White were employed in building
a log house on the extreme north
western end of Crossman's Point.
He kept close watch of all passing
boats. afs59,
Shortly after 8 O'Clock, James
said, he heard a boat coming from
the direction of the boat house.
The boat made its way around the
north side of Peterson S island then
towards the Thomas island where
it went ashore near a little pine
tree. The men here, changed
places in the boat. From the tree,
the boat was then rowed to the
main shore, one of the men stand
ing in the stern and working his
arms hand over hand as in the act
of playing out a line or net. The
boat made several trips over the
same course going almost directly
north and south. s
About S O'Clock, according to
the warden, he saw the same boat
going in the direction of, the boat
houses and home. The warden
got into his canoe and padded for
the shore near where he knew they
would land. He arrived there
ahead of them. his intention being
to see whether they had, nets or
fish. so
James claims that when the occu-
pants of the boat saw him, the
boat was turned and again headed
out into the lake. He. called to
the occupants, which he recognized
as the men he had been watching
to come ashore. He says he called
several times and the laststime dis
played his star badge. q He say:
the boat did not stop and he pulled
a 3S-calibre liver Johnson revolve,
from his pocket and asked the mer
again to come in saying he woult
shoot. He says he raised the gui
with the intention of firing sho
over their heads to brighten them
He pulled the trigger and saw tn
man who was facing him lay owe
backwards in the boat. He say
he thought the fellow was sham
ming but seeing his arms and hand
twitching and drawing up, he reaI
lied the man was hit, The othe

occupant then padded the boat
ashore.
On coming ashore, James and
the man lifted the wounded man
from the boat onto the shore. The
warden says he asked the compan-
ion of the wounded man to stay
there while he went for the doctor.
James says he saw the man had
been hit directly in the forehead
and started as fast as he could for
a doctor. He notified the coroner
and the chief of police also and
together with the doctor all went
to the scene of the shooting.
The wounded man was taken to
the Shipman hospital where the
physicians made every effort to
save his life. He died at $3.50
o'clock.
On bringing the man to the hos
pital, James says he went to his
home for few minutes. He then
gave himself up to Chief of Police
Seraphine and was lodged in the
city Jail.
The news of the shooting spread
like wildfire and in a remarkably
short time large crowd had con-
gregated in the street near the Jail
and lnutterings were freely indulg-
ed in. The restlesness was more
marked after it became known the
man had died. A large force of
deputies were sworn in and the
crowd was gradually dispersed.
Mayor Eisenach had ordered the
saloons closed early in the evening
thus removing a considerable in
centive to lawlessness. The cooler
heads among those congregated
cautioned and advised with the
warm ones and did much to pre-
serve order.
Tuesday afternoon, Deputy Cor
oner Gleason called a jury and
after hearing the testimony of Otto
Nykkanen who was with the dead
man in the boat at the time of the
shooting, Warden James and DR..
Parker who performed the post
mortem, returned findings as fol-
lows:
That on the 4th day of April,
1910, Andrew Metsapelto came to
his death on the waters of Long
Lake by bullet from a 38-calibre
liver Johnson revolver held in the
hands of Fred B. James. That
said shooting was done by Fred
b. James IN the pursuit Of his dut-
les as State Deputy Game Warden. ("

HOW PROMISED DUEL
 WAS CALLED OFF

Paris, December 3.-tSpecial. )-Dur- ing the ministerial crisis political journalist in Paris had a quarrel in Briand as histrionical colleague. From words the two men came to blows: an exchange of cards followed, and the Journalist sent his seconds to sthe actor. The actor was rather ner- vous of results. He knew the Journal ist to be a capital swordsInan and he himself had never held a sword, so he went to see a well known fencing master here in Paris and asked him to teach him just enough to fight.
 After q short lesson the fencing mas ter shook his head over his new pupil.
 My dear fellow" he said, you are quite hopless. but you shall not risk your life. l cannot teach you to fence, but I shall do better 1 will prevent your duel with your friend, whos as | suppose you know, is one of the most formidable duellists in France" and the fencing master gave the actor d large photograph of himself on which he had written in red ink, ito the best fencer have ever made, and best pupil 1 have ever had"
 When the iornalist's seconds called on N the actor; the first thing they saw was the photograph. They said nothing about it at the time but. not wishing to risk the life of their friend, they succeeded in extracting an apol- ogy or something like it. and the duel never came off.

----------.s.---------------- OFFICERS ARE CRUEL TO ARMY RECRUITS

Berlin December 3.=(Special)-- Cruelty to recruits my -commis- d ofncers is one or the features of German army life which induces many lads of the fatherland to evade their military service. Gross cases of this kind are continually coming up before courtsmartial and one of the worst has Just been heard at Glogau where Sergt Htanislaus Livitski, of the 154 infantry, was sentenced to six weeks imprison- ment for 292 acts of cruelty on sol diers under his charge.
 It appears that Livitzki was in the habit of beating young soldiers with the butt end of his rifle punching them in the breast with his fists and belaboring them with the flat of his sword on the kneecaps and other parts Of the body. He also boxed tn cir ears. pulled their hair and occasionally dra gged them over the floor with their heads downward.
 His treatment led to one soldier de- eerting twice. I4ivitzl<fs excuse was that the men were inferior in quality md needed stiff treatment in order 10 become efficient soldiers.
