1t is OF unlikely similar improve

Side Addition the coming year, that
section being one of the most
densely populated portions of the
city at the present time, while the
many prospective homes in the

the coming season will join in the
imperative demand for modern i'm
provements.
A communication from the Park
Board, anticipating the possible
construction of a railway along any
portion of Lake Boulevard, object
ed to such prospective desecration
of the public grounds, especially in
consideration of the fact that the
Board had put a great amount of
expense into improvements on that
thoroughtare during the past year
The committee on city property

quest Of the Library Board for com

Spoke on Socialism.

J. E. Nash addressed a large audi
ence at the Finnish Socialist Hall
Monday evening on the subject OF
"Socialism." It is understood the
address by Mr.. Nase was the prelim.
mary of an active campaign on the
part of local socialists, of whom
Virginia has considerable num-
ber, it being the intention of the
local adherents of that faith to place
a municipal ticket in the field at the
next election as well as carry the
fight in county politics. .-.

greatest calamity that can happen
to the people of the Missabe and
Vermilion ranges. Since it pro-
vides an Unfair and unreasonable
method of taxation and is, am ad-
vised, unconstitutional, it will nee
essarily involve three or four years
prolonged litigation and although
it may finally be held unconstitu~
tional by the courts and the ranges
again be taxed the same a 8 the rest
of the state, the situation will be
very unfortunate for and ruinous to
everyone doing business on the
Missabe range in the meantime.
"The strength of the people of the
range in the past has been the unity
of the county, and Duluth has al
ways literally assisted the range in
getting fair treatment.
This county division question is
not matter in which any one man
or set of men are especially inter
ested, as implied by your letter.
Since the mining properties pay
five-sixths of the entire county tax,
and eleven.twelfths of the entire tax
on the range, we think that it is
unreasonable for. you to imply that
we should not have the right to
take a position on this question,
which is mainly question of rev.
enue and taxation. The interest of
the mining com panies is entire]yin
the range, and anything that is for
the benefit of the range country has
always been welcomed by all of
them. We were glad to see the nee
essary courts provided, fair repre-
sentation on thskboard Of county
commissioners s$Ssssa $SSSsssaa7u, and II ,other
things for which III re has been any
real demand. In the last few years,
it is just to say, that more money
has been spent for school and for
public Improvements in cities and
towns on the Nissabe range than
any other locality throughout the
state if not in the county, and you
know full we'll who pays the bills.
However, this agitation was started
in opposition to the people who pay
the great bulk Of the taxes, and no
opportunity was given for fair
discussion of th. matter before the
strongest kind of an appeal was
made to the prejudices of such peo.
pie as might tie influenced by an
indefinite and unwarranted agita-
ton for local self. lf.government, etc.
II do not interd in this telegra m
to discuss this matter, except to
state very brieflymy position, about
which there never has been and
cannot be any secret, because l be
lieve that county division and the
agitation for it at this time will be
the greatest misfortune that can
befa!l the people on the range, and
that it is not to the interest of any
part of St. Louis county.
Such people as are honestly in
favor of county division ought at
least, in fairness, to bring it up at a
time when full t.fsc Of it ca n
be had without working injustice to
the ranges greater than any sup
posed benefits that can be obtained
of personal or general nature.

it can be made the other way by the aid
Of the trade winds.
His friends are of the same opinion,
and are enthusiastic over the venture
1t Is planned when the time comes to

FIVE BILLS SENT
TO COMMISSIONERS
Needed District Legislation
Now Considered.
NEW CHILD LABOR STATUTE
One Bill Makes the Carrying of
Weapons, Either Openly or Con-
Changes Status of Crossing PO-
Iicemen-Act of Wider Scope.

Five bills pertaining to the District
were yesterday sent by the House and
Senate District committees to the Com
missioners for consideration and report.
One bill declares it a felony for b per-
son to carry openly or concealed any
pistol, bowie knife, dirk knife, blackjack,
dagger, sword cane. slung shot. or brass
/ or other metal knuckles in the District.
! The bill fixes the penalty at imprisonment
! in the penitentiary for not less than one
! year nor more than three years. The
act provides that prosecutions be had by
indictment in the District Supreme Court.
| The second bill provides that the street
! railway crossing policemen of the Dis
trict be placed on the same basis as the
members of the Metropolitan police force
with respect to salary, sick leave, and
annual leave. At present the crossing
policemen are employed by the railway
companies, although they are governed
by the regulations of the Metropolitan
police force.
The third bill provides that the park
watchmen in the District be placed on
the same footing with respect to salary
and leave as the members of the police
force. This bill, as well as the second
one has already received the indorse-
ment of many civic and commercial in
situations in the District.
New Bill of Wider Scope.
The fourth bill is for the regulation Of
child labor in the District. There is al
ready a child labor law in Washington,
but the bill now before Congress is OF
much wider scope. The penalty for vio-
lation OF the law is the same as under
the present statute, a fine not to exceed
$50 for employing children and q fine
of so for each day of employment after
being notified OF the violation by the
authorities.
The fifth bill makes II a misdemeanor
for any one to sell, exchange, or give
away in the District any OF the weapons
named in the first bill. The penalty under
the law is imprisonment in the work
house for not less than six months or
more than one year, or the payment OF
a fine of not less than 800 or more than
$500.
The Commissioners will consider the
bills in detail at once. AS far as can be
learned the District officials are strongly
in favor of the passage OF all five bills.

Reception at the BeIasco.

The return engagement of the All-star
Imperial Russian Ballet, NJ. Mikail
Mordkin director, proved a great sue
cess yesterday afternoon at the BeIasco
Theater, and created even more enthu-
siasm than in the previous performances
An audience OF society people greeted
them which filled the body of the house
The complete symphony orchestra, Wit
torio Podetti conducting, direct from the
Metropolitan Opera House, played the
most charming music. The first part OF
the programme consisted OF The Russian
Wedding" an exquisite bit in one act,
adapted by Mordkin to the music Of
Rubinstein, Tschaikowsky. and Dargo-
miszki. The dancers were all fresh.
graceful, and beautifully costumed. Mord-
kin was in good form, and his 1.-THE,
sinewy figure never responded more
gracefully to the varied music. There
were frequent demands for encores, but
they were not granted.

It is stated that the Milwaukee rail-
