Birmingham, May 9.-G. P. M)-Fair weather continues over all the cotton states, and. In fact, nearly all the south ern half of the country. Rains continue In the northern states and the northwest, but the amounts are insignificant.
 The rains in the northern sections have been caused by the, extensive low pres sure area in the upper Missouri valley, that is drawing the moist winds from the lakes and Pacific ocean, The winds are also beginning to move from the Gulf of Mexico toward this low" but 1t Is cen tral too far north to give precipitation in the gulf region, where condition of high barometric pressure prevails

The Reason Why Because.

A labor leader, whose name is
known throughout the civilized
world, gave public lecture on So
cialism at Virginia last week. but
the papers of that city do not seem
to have discovered the fact. And
Virginia alleges to have two news
apers.-Bear River Journal.
And as editor of one of those pa
pers, the Enterprise scribe can state
that he was reared on the good old
orthodox principle of never speak
ing i'll Of man; we were taught
and have tenaciously held to the
principle of saying nothing of any
one unless we can cay something
good. And on the evening of the
gentleman's visit we had an engage
ment which took US elsewhere, thus
missing the opportunity of hearing
and forming an opinion. Perhaps
we missed the opportunity of life
time, but as others seem to be fully
as quiet about the gentleman's ad-
dress as was the local press we have
not yet been informed of such fact.

Will Build Model Town on Sturgeon Lake.

The Swan River Logging compa-
ny is moving it's headquarters from
Mississippi to the shores of West
Sturgeon lake, a most suitable loca
ton directly opposite the townsite
of Green Rock. Building operations
have already commenced, work be-
ing begun on several dwellings.
Plans have been made for model
town of the new headquarters for
the company. The work of build.
ing machine shops, roundhouse,
storehouses, boarding houses, office
buildings and dwellings for en-
ployes will be commenced immedi-
ately. The company also plans to
install electric light and water sys-
tens. Board walks will be laid and
shade trees planted along the
streets. AT present the company
has crews of men at work building
roads to the timber district which
lies to the northwest of the new viii
lage. 1t is hoped to have the roads
built in time to permit log hauling
next spring. There are six camps
each containing crew of 100 to 100
men at work on the road building,
and when cutting begins more than
double that number will be en-
ployed. In the vicinity of West
Sturgeon lake there are many acres
of fine agricultural lands which
will be tapped by the roads used
tor log hauling. A rush for home
steads IS looked for in consequence.
West Sturgeon lake is twenty-eight
miles distant from Chisholm by the
county road.-Mesaba Miner.

will Draw New Charter for Eve|eth.

A charter commission, for the
purpose of drawing a new home
rule charter for our sister city of
Eveleth, was appointed on Tuesday
by Judges Ensign, Cant, Hughes
and Dancer, of the district court.
Two previous commissions, for a
similar purpose, have been appoint
ed but went into a state of inocuous
disuetude without accomplishing
anything, but it is thought the pres
ent commission composed of promi
nent citizens, will work out charter
to the satisfaction of the people of
the city.
