er is the only candidate that will
appeal to the range vote and as his

in which Ely received only casual
mention.
Both Mr.. Owens and Mr.. John
son claimed no intention to slap

policy to advertise Ely as a resort
before the citizens should take in
terest enough to furnish accomod-
atoms and facilities for caring for
the influx. They promised to CO.

providing something tangible was
first shown and as the road is now
working on the next years folder
it is time for the people here to get
busy.
The matter of the running OF the
evening passenger was also discuss
ed the officials claiming that chang
es for the earlier coming in of the
train could not be accomplished
without considerable hardship. Al
together a better understanding
was arrived at which is bound to
prove beneficial.

that in one precinct in Duluth,
twenty-five Norton votes had been
counted for Adams, and ten Nor

all. This made a difference OF
sixty votes in Norton 5 favor. The
recount was never finished, and
no one knows what Norton's maj

ORIGIN OF MAY DAY CUSTOM
Old Roman Feast of FloraIia-Pe.
cullar Methods of Celebrating
In Former Times.

The actual origin Of the May day
custom appears to have been the old
Roman Floralia, celebrated on April
2S and instituted in Rome al B. G..
on account Of a season when the har-
vest was very poor. In the mediae-
val May festival an important fea-
ture was a nocturnal expedition to
the forest, whence branches were
gathered and fastened to the doors
of many homes by neighbors as an
evidence of good wishes and loyalty.
The first of May throughout Great
Britain and to a lesser extent in
France and Germany was formerly
celebrated with festivities, which
still have their local but much at
tenuated spirit. From the many
diverse ways in celebrating the al
most obsolete custom at Brightwal-
ton, Berkshire, where the Virgin and
Child, in the guise of the May queen
with a doll in a basket, are borne
around the parish, may come the
custom obtaining in parts of New
England, where the children are
won't to fill baskets with flowers for
the homes.
The baskets are sometimes tied to
doors and left, the givers hurrying
away so as to avoid discovery.
In Sweden May day is still cefe-
brated in ways strangely similar to
the ancient Roman custom.
