IT IS understood that the Two
Harbors people who have been in
the habit of doing their shopping in
Duluth are making a howl over the
change in time of the D. & I. R.
claiming not enough time is given
them to do their Superior street
business. As the trains stop on
the least provocation, we would
suggest that they get off near the
Fitger Brewery and thus by
gradually moving westward along
Superior St. could see all the win
dows and arrive at the Union sta
ton in plenty of time to catch the
train back home at 2::45. A better
suggestion still is, that they do
their shopping at home and thus
help their local merchants build up
the town and consequently enhance
the value of their own property.
The people at this end of the line
feel that considering the amount
of business the road secures from

may be just a little large to the

Olcott, deep down in his heart will
verify the truth of every assertion.
We need the mining companies

us are necessary for the welfare of

WHILE it must be said to our
discredit, there are few people in
Ely who continue to knock
prospective mining propositions,
they are not as prevalent as the
mining correspondents of the Du-
luth dailies would lead to believe.
Every town has its knockers. I"
This Vermilion range is the iron
field of the future and Ely will be
in it when other, just now more
prosperous appearing, towns are
dead and buried. The editor of
the MINER has boosted for the Yer
million for twenty-one years as far
as our meagre means would permit
and our faith is getting stronger
lhan ever every day. We honestly
believe that the Vermilion will be
the iron producing center of the
coming years. We have the best
mines, the best prospects and the
largest mineralized territory in the
country. Keep your eve on the
Vermilion has been the slogan of
the MINER in the past and we still
maintain that it will pay you to
keep your eye on the Vermilion.

A BILL for an act to create the
State tuberculosis commission and
to establish and maintain public
district tuberculosis sanatoria" is
now in the hands of the Public
Health and Pure Food Committee
of the House and Senate. It will
be introduced as committee bill
in both House and Senate some
time this week. The bill represents
the joint labors for the past six
weeks of the legislation committee
of the MINI. Association for the
Prevention and Relief of Tuber-
culosis, of the State Sanatorium
Advisory Commission and of a
special commission appointed by
the State Board of Health and all
those most interested have been
consulted and agreed to the main
provisions of the bill. Hence no
other bill will be introduced and it
is unlikely that this bill will be
modified. It is to be hoped the
same may become operative. The
bill provides for the erection of
sanatoriums in each congressional
district of the state and provides
for the levying of tax of $40 of a
mill on all taxable property the
first year and 2-1O of a mill for
each year after the first for the
purposes set forth in the act.

are sure there are may citizens
here who would like to hear both

The New York authorities have
wisely placed in the Central Park
Zoo" an animal whose like has
never been seen by most of the
children of the metropolis. This is
the animal commonly known as
the cow which once held the high
jumping record but has since set
tied down and gone to house
keeping. The cow is sister to
the OK, but is more given to wear
ing the marcel wave in her horns
where they have not pawned IN
childhood to meet the demands of
social life. It is very common ex-
preston to say that a COW gives
milk, but this is not strictly true,
for as a matter of fact we take it
away from her. She is often used
to symbolic the public who are
also MIXED betimes, and the profits
gathered from such milkings have
put lots of folks into the cream of
society. The COW is the only
animal that can come back. She
does it regularly every day, and
her own sweet curfew bell is a
benediction and a vesper song. No
dairy farm is complete without her.
Long may she live to be known OF
men and to bless our people.

THE notorious Bygeorge, y
spelled Bjcrge, he of tonnage tax
fame of 1909, not haying been sue
cessfully squelched in the last cleo
ton when he failed to land a Con-
gressional seat, has bobbed up
again. This time he has as his
puppet one Thomas Frankson,
representative of Fillmore county,
who has introduced a tonnage tax
on iron ore measure in the house OF
which Bjorge is the author. Frank
son appeared before the house COM
mittee on taxes and tax laws We'd
nesday and in the course of his re-
marks championing the bill made
assertions that caused a langh
among the colleagues. Frankson
in his granger way estimated the
ore on the Mesaba as a strip 100
miles long, E miles wide and 125
feet deep, all solid ore, and con-
tanning $4,000, 100000 tons. 1t
was very evident from his remarks
that the fellow had never seen this
country and had not the least con-
ception of what it was like. In
this he is no worse than a repre-
sentative of the district next to
ours who claims he has never been
in the range end of his district not
withstanding the fact he is sup
posed to be very able represent
tative and has been resident of Du-
luth for about thirty years. Fine

WHAT OTHERS SAY

Should the legislature pass bill
calling for the printing of the per-
sonal property list, no doubt it
would prove a means of increasing
the revenue from people who have
successfully lodged their taxes fo1
many years. Publicity is one thing
that the tax dodger does not love.

Sell cooked but even they are allow
ed to buy only from persons who

EFFORTS TO RELIEVE THE

STATE BOARD OF AGRICULTURE
TO ASSIST DELAWARE FARMERS
Assessors to Find Out How Manv [ a.
borers Farmers Will Need Next
Spring and Make a Report

There is no question which NOR,
directly concerns our farmers thar
help and Smyrna Clayton farmers
will welcome a movement which will
ameliOrate conditions. Vice-Presi.
dent Newton L. Grubb, of the State
Board of Agriculture, has hit upon
plan which he will inaugurate in
New Castle County and President
Oliver A. Newton of the same Board
will inaugurate like plan in Kent
and Sussex. The plan is to secure
from Clerk of the Peace Brown the
Names of all assessors in New Castle
County outside of Wilmington. He
will send personal letters to them
all, asking them to make a poll of
farmers, when making their assess
ments, as TO what labor they will
require next spring. The assessors
will be requested to make specific
inquiries; to ask each farmer how
many men he can use; whether he
wants truckers or general farm
hands, et". The assessors will be
asked to enumerate all of the re-
plies and 70 forward the answers to
the immigration Commission of
which Governor Pennewill is presi-
dent and of which all the members
of the Board of Agriculture are
identified. President Oliver A.
Newton of the State Board of Agri
will inaugurate a similar
campaign, through assessors in
Kent and Sussex counties. When
the needs of Delaware growers gen.
orally shall be learned in the matter
OF labor, the immigration Board
will communicate with Secretary
Pierson, of the immigration League
Of New York. The latter who has
been the means for years of furnish
ing farm labor for other States will
be placed in touch with the agricuI-
turists Of Delaware. He has prom
lsed to cooperate with the officials
Of this commonwealth. Vice-Presi-
ldent Grubb stated that President
Newton and himself will spend the
winter ON this work. 1t will be a
lifting prelude to the plan of the
colleges of Agriculture of Delaware
md Maryland and the Pennsylvania
tallroad Company to carry the COS
'el of better farming to the homes

coloreel Man Caught in the Act" in

monty known as the "bully of War
wick, and an unknown negro were
detected in an attempt to steal some
hats and caps in the store of the
