The report from Pisa that royal en-

the leaning tower at that place has in
creased eight inches and that the
structure is likely to collapse will tend
to further increase the number of
those who believe that tho tower was
never intended to be . freak of ma

the yielding of It's foundation on one
side. AS a drawing card" for tour
lists the famous leaning tower has had
value in addition to the historic con-
siderations, and If it should fall there
would doubtless be a demand for it's
reconstruction. A modern builder
could give Pisa a leaning tower of
greater inclination by using an an
chored steel skeleton and clothing it
with well fastened veneer.

A speaker at meeting of a medical
society in New Jersey declared that
some of the greatest surgeons living
had left sponges, forceps and other in
struments in the abdominal cavities
of persons operated upon, and that the
practise was 'inexcusable." This
makes cheerful reading for the lay
public, especially that portion of It that
has hospital experience in prospect;
but the statement of the existence of
this practise is also puzzIing from the
fact that it must be more or less ex-
pensive practise to the surgeons them
selves to oe so careless about losing
good instruments.

MAY WIN MILLIONS
SUIT TO BE TRIED INVOLVES
OWNERSHIP OF DEPOSITS
UNDER LAKES.
IN NORTHERN IRON ORE DISTRICT
Law Passed at Last Session to Be
Tested.-Governor Eberhart and
Members of Drainage. Com
mission Study Case.

Hibbing. Several millions of dol.
lars worth OF natural resources are
involved in a case which will be
brought by the state of Minnesota to
determine the ownership of the ore
deposits under the beds of lakes in
the range country. Property worth
$25,000,00 will be saved to the state
if the gtate wins, according to state
officials.
Attorney General Simpson and his
assistant, c. Louis Weeks, came to
Hibbing on the same train that
brought Governor Eberhart and the
members of the state drainage COM
mission. The attorney general, his as
sistant, State Auditor Iverson and
Governor Eberhart conferred with
Frank Willis. state mine inspector,
concerning the case A visit was
made by the officials to Long Ear
lake, where the mine which is being
used as the test case is located. Mil
lions of tons of ore in this lake alone
will be saved if the state wins. There
are many such lakes on the range
common Law PrIncIpie.
1t is a principle of common law
that the owners Of land on the shore
own the lake bed if the lake goes dry.
The question as to the states own
ing the ore did not come up until
seven years ago, when application was
made to State Auditor Iverson for
the leasing of such land for mining
purposes.
The lease was granted for the pur-
pose of making test case. The mat
ter was carried to the United States
supreme court, but that court decided
that it had no jurisdiction as it was
entirely question of state law. The
next time an application was made,
it was refused so that the courts could
be asked for a decision. Again the
supreme court decided that it had no
jurisdiction.
AS there was no state law govern
ing the case, the matter was put up to
the legislature. Twice the legislature
refused to enact such a law, but at
the last session a law was passed
which provided for the state owner
ship of all ore deposits under lakes.
The Euclid Mining company was
mining on the shores of Long Ear
lake at the time. The state started
injunction proceedings to stop it from
stripping this ore which the law said
belonged to the state. The mining
company finally gave bonds to the
state SO that it could keep on mining
until the case was settled in the
courts.
If the state wins the company will
have to pay the state for the ore TAX
en- out. The money which will be
brought into the state treasury in the
event of the states winning this suit,
will be devided into two parts, one
half going into the revenue fund, and
the other into the road and bridge
fund. The revenue fund will be SO
materially increased in the event of
the states winning that taxes which
have already been reduced will be re-
duced great deal more and in time,
perhaps eliminated.
The outcome of this case involves
much more money than comes from
either the inheritance tax or the gross
earnings.
