Forfeited Bail

John Doe and Another" were
arrested Tuesday on a warrant
sworn to by Matt Koski charging
them with shooting up his soloon.
When brought before the court the
two gave their names as Lloyd
Dow and Robert Hirst and gave as
an excuse for their hostile attitude
that they had won about 5000 from
Koski in a poker game which he
refused to pay. They put up 500
bail and were given their liberty.
When their case came up Wednes-
day morning, they failed to appear
and their bail was declared for

PLAY GROUND
Badly Needed for Children
of Ely

Considerable complaint is made
by team and automobile owners
over the large number of children
using the public streets for a play
ground, thus endangering their
lives and making driving in town a
hazardous undertaking. This is
particularly the case during the
recess period at the Central school
when all the school children use
the streets as play ground and a
runaway through Second Avenue
would be fatal.
What Ely needs and needs badly
is public play ground for the
children. All the towns that have
established such an institution
speak in. glowing terms of the
benefits to be derived. Swings,
poles, rry-go-rounds, marble
plots, etc. have tendency to keep
the children off the streets and the
same could be put in at a very
reasonable cost whose returns in
health and pleasures derived would
pay for itself in a very short time.
A play ground in the summer
with the already established skating
rink for the winter would be lust
about the proper caper. Think it
over.

on the part of all other tax payers,
an unusually small amount. The
street railway company refuses to
accept the county's figures as to
the amount of its personal property

refused.

OUR COUNTRY
Duluth & Iron Range Fore
most in Advertising
AS Pretty as Any is Our Lake
Region

Actuated by the knowledge that
the Lake country of northern Min
nesota has been equipped by nature
to become the summer playground
of America, strong interests, work
ing in conjunction with the people
of this county, have under way a
campaign to attract to this section
the thousands of tired jewellers in
the centers of population who seek
strength, health and recreation in
the heart of nature during the sum-
mer months. The campaign has
been going on for more than "a year
and that it is showing results was
proven last season by the greatly
increased numbers of the outsiders
who visited this region between the
first of June and the first of
October.
This movement to develop one of
the greatest resources of the north
country is headed by the Duluth &
Iron Range railroad, which has as
sumed responsibility for letting the
country at large know the POSSIBLE
tiles and attractions of the lake and
river country lying between here
and the Canadian boundary. It is
the intention to keep its attractions
as summer dwelling place before
the public of the east, west and
south until its claims are reeogniz-
ed by the nation, and its attractions
are generally appreciated as those
of the Adirondacks or the lakes and
rivers of the St. Lawrence valley.
In carrying on the campaign the
promoters have asked for and are
receiving the hearty cooperation
of the people of the districts that
are to receive the first direct bene-
fit. 1t is realized that one of the

TO Plant Fry

The Ely Fish and Game Protec-
Association met Monday evening
and appointed various squads of
members to take charge of the work
of planting large consignment of
fish fry in the lakes and streams
tributary to Ely. The committees
were named in advance so that no
hitch would occur when the fish
car arrives. The car is expected
at almost any time.
The Ely miner. [volume] (Ely, Minn.) 1895-1986, 1911-04-28

chief drawbacks of the lake coun-
try for years past has been the lack
of accommodations to take care of
the needs of a large number OF
visitors. 1t is common knowledge
in this section that the people up
here have neglected one of their
greatest opportunities for financial
gain by failing to provide summer
hotels at convenient points along
the water routes, and by neglect
ing to install club houses with
launches, canoes, and sporting
equipment, guides, carefully map
ped canoe routes, and other infor-
nation which is necessary for the
enjoyment of the sojourners in the
wilds.
The railroad has undertaken to
supply all the literature, realizing
that the cost of such an undertak-
ing would be more than the people
of this section could be expected to
bear, and knowing that their equip
ment for securing effective pub
licity, could hardly be of the sort
which would make results certain.
But the material things must be
supplied by those on the ground.
In order to get at the sentiment,
M. M. Hanna, who has charge of
the publicity campaign for the
railroad, held meetings with the
leading citizens of Tower and Ely.
He explained to them the objects
in view. the work he was doing,
and told them plainly what was
expected of them. Both meetings
were greatly in favor of the project,
and promised that everything
necessary to increase its local sue
cess would be done by them.
Like all enterprises at their in
ception it is not intended that giant
caravansaries shall arise in the will
derness on the moment, equipped
for the accommodation of hundreds
of guests. These, it is expected
will come latter. The intention is
that a good beginning shall be
made. That lodges of moderate
pretensions shall insure the comfort
of those who confne there outing
to the lake shores, and the vicinity
of the, cities, towns and hamlets.
Outside of this the main objects
will be to take care of camping
parties, hunters, fisherman and
canoe enthusiasts, attracted by the
abundant game, the lakes and
streams teeming with fish, and the
long lanes of lake and river, that
give possibilities of an outing of
many weeks duration with an
evershifting scenic setting in a
country as beautiful as any in
America.
This is not hard task, as the
man or women who invades the
wilderness does not demand much.
But the things that are necessary
must be at hand, and the people
hereh have undertaken to furnish
them. A visit from many hun
dreds of these pleasure seekers in a
season is sure to be followed later
by additional hundreds, multiply
ing year after year, until the lake
and river country takes the place in
the estimation of the tourist public
to which it is entitled.

THE POSTAL BANKS.

Postmaster General Hitchcock's announce
ment OF the liberal patronage given the postal
savings repositories in the west is another ndica-
ton that the exercises of this function by the
government has met with favor and can be safe
ly extended throughout the country The test
has now been made and there is no longer rea-
son for proceeding slowly in making the
privilege generally available The time has come
to authorize the pOstmasters in large cities and
centers OF population to accept money on de-
post.
Before the first postal savings bank was
opened IN the United States it was clear that the
system would be success. Intelligent persons
knew that the same forces in human nature
which had made the scheme popular in other
countries would be potent here.
The experiment has amply justified this view
and as soon as possible the system should be
expanded to proportions commensurate with its
usefulness to the country.
In many small towns and communities there
is no bank, and millions of people would have to
travel considerable distance to reach stable
institution that pays interest. And where there
are sound private banks, there is also field
for the postal bank. 1t brings out of hiding
great deal OF money belonging to men and
women with a foolish and chronic distrust of
banks, a notion that refuses to recognize com
mon sense and regards every little bank failure
confirmation
So the growth of the postal savings bank
system is an mmixed good 1t does not with
hold money from the banks, while it does en-
courage many to save who otherwise would not
cd So And yet another effect will be that
upon the foreigners who now send their money
out of the country AS soon as they learn that
the United States government will take care of
their savings and pay them interest they will
not be so determined to buy exchange on the
old country with every cent they can spare from

POOR OLD FRISCO.

The San Francisco Call asks: "Why Knock
San Francisco" This is really one of the fun
niest questions that we have heard for sometime
1t is true that almost everyone lies about San
Francisco, for they would be afraid of being
arrested for using indecent language if they
were to tell the truth about the city. The rot
tenness of San Francisco smells unto the high
heavens and those who get faint odor rush to
a tan yard to get the perfume from their nos
trils 1t was thought, once upon time when
Schmtz and Ruef had the city by the throat
that the city was sunk into the deepest quag
mires of disgrace, bat the reign of those two
men shall shine forth in history as a bright morn
ing star beside the light that comes from the
Mccarthy orb
No. no is knocking San Francisco 1t
would be impossible. San Francisco wants to
hold fair in 1915, but the way in which the
city has been turned over to the control of the
grafters and the divekeepers will deter the hon
est farmer from sending his pumpkins to the
city for exhibition, for fear that he will not
get even a picture back
San Francisco's municipal management is
such that if it is not changed and that in a
hurry, that they might just as well forget all
about an exposition for exposition with Me
earthly at the helm would be worse than the
whooping cough without cuspidor No one
knocks San Francisco San Francisco is so busy
knocking itself that no one else gets a chance -.

BOXING NONSENSE.

Boxing may may not be a terrible evil !:

Take New York for instance The boxing
controversy must have cost that state millions of
dollars in money and millions of souls in shame
More officials have gone wrong over boxing
than over open saloons. And under the noses
of the opponents of boxing, all these years have
gone on practices beside which boxing smells like

Why attack the petty evils? man is killed
in the ring now and then but the victims
the social evil are killed daily In boxing, boys
sometimes meet improper associates; in sweat
shops, girls always meet them Boxing is the
scapegoat and the politicians encourage its dis
cusslon, that they may avert necessity of reform
ing some evil really serious
1t is not well that we become a nation of
molycoddles There is more terrible disgrace
IMAM claretty nose or vermilliOn and sable
eye, 1t is far, far better that men settle their
differences with their fists than that they employ

Boxing, when not on the square, is PERM
clous; is college sport on the square? Sometimes
an evil class of men control boxing but so do
they many sorts of enterprises The art of self
defense has nothing horrible, per Sc; like any art
it may be demeaned by grafters, thieves and

Boxing laws ought to be observed or swept
from the books. To pass them and permit their
violation is only adding another ounce to an
