that Company, Which Also
Pays for Rental.

In the itemized published report OF
village receipts this week appeared an
item, which read $500 for the sale of
a steam crusher TO the Ojlbway Min
ing company"
IL appears that two years or more
ago the rock crusher i'm question was
| loaned TO the Ojibway. Nothing more
was thought Of the matter until some
one started TO make inquiries as to
where the crusher was located. A
hunt was instituted with the result
that the engine and boiler of the rock
crusher was located at Mohawk. and
the crusher itself ut Ojbway. At
meeting OF the village council a reso-
luton was passed to sell the rock
crusher to the Ojibway Mining COM
pany, or else ask the company TO pay
rental for the machine, including the
time IL has been in its possession. The
sale price OF the machine was $3.50,
and $3.50 was charged for rental dur
ing the time ii has been i'm the mining
company's hands. The rock crusher
is being operated now by electricity, |
this being the reason why the engine |
and boiler is at Mohawk, and not con-
nected with the crusher.
The village Of Laurium Is now. It is
understood. looking for a purchaser for
the engine and boiler.
Through the action on the part of
-he council. the village is the richer
