WE ARE IT
Ely and the VermiliOn
Range Attracting At
tentiOn

! Ely is attracting considerable at.
tention in the outside world just al
present which means much for this
section. Parties returning from
the Twin Cities say that the Yer
million range is the subject of much
conversation in the hotels, cafes
and at commercial centers.
The cities have just awakened to
the possibilities of this country for
the investor in mining properties
and the farm proposition in ST..
Louis county is attracting much
attention. The showings being
made by the exploration companies
working on this range and the dis
plays of agricultural products have
awakened this state to a realization
of the chances here.
The trip of the St. Paul Boo
sters" to this section last summer
has had much to do with placing
this country on the map. The
Milwaukee Boosters" will invade
the Mesaba range this summer but
unfortunately their time will not
permit them to include the Yer
on their trip so their secretary in
formed L. ]. White secretary of the
Ely Business Mems Association in
answer to an invitation extended to
visit us. The secretary of the
Milwaukee organization however
promised that later the Boosters"
would be pleased to visit us.
The people are beginning to see
that Ely and the Vermilion range
have long life before them. At
the least calculations Ely will be
here in 80 years from now with the
present outlook and the immediate
surroundings present possibilities
of indefinite duration. AS the
MINER has contended right along
and still contends, Ely will be here
when many of the other towns are
dead and buried.
The advent of the Canadian &
Northern railroad from Port Arthur
to Duluth is a strong probability
and has reached the stage where it
is more than a possibility. The
apening up of a mine or two and
the securing of some ore tonnage
will put theroad through here. The
road is now through to Gunf1int
lake on the north and it has con-
nections to Duluth over the Vir-
ginia & Rainy Lake. The build
ing of about 90 miles of road would
furnish direct route from Port
Arthur to Duluth.
There is scarcely a piece of
ground with the slightest indication
of mineral anywhere on this range
that is not at present being pros
pected or will be during this sum-
mer. Many of these will become
mines and Vermilion range mines
are as good as any in the world.

Signs of Spring

While no one has so far brought
notice of the return of the robin,
an infallible harbinger of spring,
the nett best sign has appeared in
the person of Mr.. Berry, the genial
and rotund inspector of the railroad
scales along the line who makes an
annual inspection and test just be-
fore the shipping season in ushered
in. Yes, indeed, spring is here.
The Ely miner. [volume] (Ely, Minn.) 1895-1986, 1911-04-21
Has Resigned

P. F. Chamberlain who has had
charge of the work being done al
the North American and Vermilior
Steel & Iron properties for some
time has resigned and accepted a
position with another mining con-
Germ on this range. He will be
succeeded by E. F. Bradt, who
formerly was with the Cleveland
Cliffs interests.

Ore Shipments Begun

The Pioneer, Zenith and Section
80 mines began loading ore from
the pockets this week and ore trains
are daily leaving for the docks at
Two Harbors. The daily output
is being loaded from the pockets.
In consequence several switching
crews have begun their work and
with the ore trains running in the
yards, the D. & I. R. tracks have
taken on lively appearance. Jos.
Kelsall has returned from winter
spent in Duluth and has again as
sumed his duties as weightmaster
at the ore scales in the yard.

CITY BASEBALL LEAGUE.

-Four hundred shiyering fans
huddled and cuddled through three
hours of baseball yesterday after
noon caught colds and other things,
and incidentally saw the Marions
and St. Anthonys continue their tie
for first place In the City Baseball
League by downing the Amboys in a
double-header. The scores:
Marions, 4; Amboys, 0.
st. Anthonys, z; Amboys, 2.
In the first of the doubie-header,
between the Marions and Amboys,
some fast baseball and an interesting
pitchers duel was witnessed by the
faithful crowd which turned out In
such chilly weather as yesterday.
Long before the first game was over
everybody was hopping up and down
on the side lines or enjoying q huge
bonfire lighted by some ingenious
y%oungster out in deep right field.
Barring the cold, 1t was an ideal day
for baseball, but the spirit in any of
the three teams was decidedly lack
ball. Why, it's chestnut roasting
timsl
But to the game. Kohler proved a
stumbling block In the path of the
Amboys, who saw visions of the
championship and the EVENING
NEWS pennant by annexing both
games. He let them down with three
hits and gave only two bases on
balls. His work was sublime. In
the third inning he famed the side
on sixteen pitched balls. Kohler, on
nearly every instance, was backed by
clever fielding and excellent batting
and base running on the part of his
team mates. Wilson put in a good
afternoon for his club, as did Morse,
who starred for the losers. The
rangy third sacker is about the best
at that position around these dig
gings. The score:
