The Columbus journal. (Columbus, Neb.) 1874-1911, 1911-06-07

Last Wednesday evening was a big
night in the history of the Columbus
fire department, the occasion being the
first smoker given by the honorary
members for the active firemen.. The
question of having a department
smoker had been agitated for a long
time. but it was not until this spring
that the matter took definite form,
and at the smoker given by the Pho
neer hook and ladder company last
April, a committee was appointed to
solicit funds from among the honor
airy members to properly entertain the
fire fighters of today. Refreshments
and cigars were served during the
evening, and a number Of short talks
were made by the firemen, past and
present, in response to calls made by
Mayor Held, who acted as toastmas-
ter, and who served his time in Hose
Company No. 2. AS result OF the
meeting of the entire department., it
is thought by many that the company
smokers and dances may become rel
les of the past. and that the entire de-
partment may come to work together
and have one great ball and one
bumper smoker each year. This will
bring a goodly amount of money into
the treasury. which will be available
for entertainments as we'll as for
meeting the current expenses of the
department..

But they all found shelter to-

found shelter, the blizzard up
rooted a tree.
When the storm was over the
Merritts went out and gazed
sadly at the fallen monarch of the
forest. They were true woods
men, and it hurt them to see an
injured tree.
Then one of the brothers gave
a cry, and stopped down and
scraped at the roots of the tree.
He scooped up the red earth, and
held it out to his brothers.
Look he cried !
The Mesaba iron ore fields
were discovered. The roots of
the tree were covered with the
precious ore.
The Merritts did not imme-
diately return to civilization.
They stayed to find the extent of
this fortune. By 1892 they had
discovered that there was at
least one hundred million gross
tons of rnerchantable ore in the
Mesaba range, covering thou
sands of acres.
And they held the controlling
interest in this vast wealth, by
right of the pain they had suffer
ed, the labor they had done, by
the first of all rights-the right of
discovery.
They were afraid. They
