Does Not Know Who to PAY.

1t appears the non-paymento of the
special municipal Judge acting in
his place during the recent absence
of Judge Carey, of the Municipal
Court, is due to the fact that the
Judge does not know to whom the
payment should be made, owing to
the promised contest between Act
ing Special Judge Fleming and
Special Judge-elect Pickering.
Judge Carey has been served with
notice by Mr.. Pickering against the
payment of the sum to Mr.. Fleming,
but states he is willing to pay the
same at any time it may be decided
to whom the amount is owing.
To date no definite action in the
promised contest for the position
has been taken, but it is current
comment that such action is con-
sidered. In a communication to the
council Tuesday evening Judge
Carey signified his Willingness to
permit the city to retain the amount
claimed as due by Mr.. Fleming un-
til such time as a final decision IN
the matter was reached.

Township Builds Sidewalks.

The township of Missabe Noun
tain, which broke loose from it's ac-
customed political moorings at the
spring election, is "doin' things" for
this end of the township the present
season in manner which should
be appreciated by the many hun
dreds of dwellers at the mining To-
cations adjacent to Virginia. At the
present time a good four foot side.
walk is being constructed to con-
meet with the Lincoln walk and run
ming northerly to the walk in the
Higgins location, giving the people
there an opportunity to come to
town even in muddy weather. Also
walk will be constructed connect
ing the Commodore and Franklin
locations with the city walks.
Road improvements in the district
Immediately adjacent to Virginia is
another appreciable point being
cared for in proper manner, and
to this end Capt. Thos. Trengrove
and D. NJ. Mouser, of the township
board, were here Wednesday, going
over every inch of township road
and noting the work to be done.
We are pleased to note that "the
Virginia end" of the t6wnship is
coming into her own. It is time.
The great majority Of the assessed
valuation of the township is in this
end of the plat and the considera-
ton is deserved.

ACCEPT FRANCHISE AS AMENDED
Promoters Of Street Railway Accept
Conditions in Order 70 Hasten Work.

While at the conclusion of the
council meeting last week, at which
was to have been heard the third
reading of the Ordinance granting
street railway franchise to E. NJ.
and w. NJ. Prindle but which was
postponed because of changes in
the same after the acceptance of the
Prindle bid, it looked as though our
promised interurban connection
with Eveleth and Gilbert might
become myth equal to the Mesa.
ba Traction Co., a franchise for
which was granted under a former
administration, the proposition has
again assumed shape through the
efforts of the promoters, who have
taken the provisions of the amend
ment up with the result that, in or
der to avoid further delay in actual
construction work, the amendment
will be permitted to stand.
Mr.. Prindle 80 advised the city
clerk by phone on Tuesday evening,
in consequence of which the ordin-
ance giving such franchise receiv-
ed its third and last reading Tues.
day evening and was adopted by
full vote of the aldermen in attend
ance, and will become law upon the
signature of the mayor and proper
publication.
To date the promoters of the pro-
posed system have expended sever
al thousand dollars in surveys and
preparatory work, and everything
points to actual construction work
being commenced at an early date.
Under the provisions of the fran
chise one mile of construction work
is to be completed by January 1st,
next, but it is not unlikely this por-
ton of the contract may of necess-
ity be abrogated to an extent inas-
much as the delay in the passage of
the franchise has had tendency to
delay the work.
However, it would appear the sun
was again shining on the PROPOSE
tion, and progressive Virginians re-
joice at the renewed prospect of
interurban connection with adjac-
ent cities which cannot but rebound |
to the commercial advantage of all. |
