Companies Performed Big Job

THE mining companies in the Lake
Superior region have made some won
derful Transformation during the past
ten or fifteen years In order to mine
ore. said an old mining man Of the
range recently. "When we stop to
think of the lakes that have been
drained and the rivers diverted into
artificial channels and the towns that
have been moved. we are forced to be-
lieve that there is hardly anything i'm
possible foi the mining companies to
carry out
"The most notable OF these extraor-
binary undertakings were the draining
OF Lake Angeline mine at Ishpeimng
the shifting Of the Michigamme. Iron
and Sturgeon rivers at the Mansfield,
Riverton and Loretto mines, Menomi-
nee range, and the transfer OF the viii
lage OF Sparta to neighboring town
site on the Mesaba range. Another in
teresting undertaking in the same cat
egory Is soon to be started in Negau
nee. where the Cleveland Cliffs Iron
company is TO carry out the removal
OF both the Protestant and Catholic
cemeteries to new site. The Cleve-
land-Cliffs Iron company will be well
repaid for the expense OF the removal
OF the cemeteries, as there is an i'm
mense body OF ore beneath the surface
occupied by the present burial grounds
1.-THE removal OF the cemeteries
would be an-absolute necessity at this
time, even il the Cleveland Cliffs Iron
company did not desire to mine the ore
AS both burial grounds are filled The
present cemeteries comprise tract of
only four acres, and the combined acre
age OF the two new burial grounds is
more than twenty times a. much
From what have seen Of the work
that the Cleveland Cliffs Iron company
has started to do the people Of Negau-
nee will be well pleased with the
change
ut will doubtless not be long after
all Of the bodies are removed from the
old cemeteries when the surface in that
vicinity will begin TO cave, as the cav.
ing system will eventually he used in
the operation OF some Of the company 6
mines in that neighborhood. The
Cleveland Gifts Iron company now has
good sized force employed at the new
cemeteries, laying out the lots, build
ing fences and doing other preparatory
work
The draining Of one-half OF Palmer
lake. on the Cascade range, by the
Volunteer Ore company, which few
months ago started to sink a shaft, is
another important undertaking. The
dam being extended across the lake
will soon be completed
The removal Of the water will be- an
easy Job compared with the draining Of
Lake Angeline, .as most Of 4 can be
drained off by trenches.
