eoPHERs WANT CORN SHOW.

Commercial Bodies Cooperate to
Bring National Exhibition to State.
Minneapolis, MINI. - Enthusiastic
over the value of the national corn
show to Minnesota, Governor Eberhart
and his cohorts of state boosters met
in the Commercial Club and agreed
that Minnesota would welcome the
national show committee next month,
with open arms.
Advanced prices of farm lands, the
encouragement of corn growing in the
state and the demonstration that Min
nesota is in reality the corn state of
the Union, are some of the benefits
that will accrue, say the boosters, If
Minnesota is the favored state for the
next exhibition.

st. Paul, MINI. Though his
name was not mentioned, the fate of
Martin O'Malley Of LIE Sueur county
hung in the balance in the. Minnesota
house Of representatives. BY vote
Of So to 10 the house passed the Mac
Kenzie bill abolishing capital punish.
ment in Minnesota.
1t was because Of this pending bill
that Governor Eberhart refused to fix
the date Of the execution of O'Malley
who had been given the death sentence
for the murder of his two step-chil.
dren. Because Of the governors re.
fusal to act the grand jury Of lie
Sueur county had asked the legislature
to investigate the governor because
Of his failure to act.
The fact that a human life was at
stake made the debate relative to the
discrimination of legal execution in
the state more pointed than 1t would
have been otherwise.
Some Opposition Raised.
AS few voices were raised in de-
tense of the old time system but the
argument was in favor of it's abolish
ment. When the vote was finally
taken only 10 representatives went on
record in favor of legal execution and
the bill received IS votes against it.
If the bill passes the senate it will
leave life imprisonment as the only
punishment for murder in the first de-
gree. Some objection has been raised
to abolishing capital punishment, as
the convicted murder can be paroled
by the state board of pardons. This
objection will be eliminated by tho
Keene bill taking away from the state
board the power to pardon men sent to
prison for life.

Option Defeat Behind Decision.
The defeat of the county option bill.
supported by all Prohibition members

definitely at the time of the roll call
on the bill in the legislature. two weeks

From now on the strength of the
party will be concentrated on a con-
st1tut1onal amendment prohibiting the
sale OF liquor. To that end over $4,000
was subscribed by members of the
party. A direct fight in every county
of the state will be made in the cam
pafgn to be waged in 1912. No help
from county optionists will be asked
or given.

FIND RICH ORE BEDS.
Two New Deposits Of High Grade
Iron Discovered on
Guyana,

Brainerd.--Two important ore dis
coveries have been made at Ironton
during the past week. Duluth peo-
pie exploring the Shawnut company
property in the southwest quarter Of
the northeast quarter OF section 10,
township 46, range 20. and the c. nj. Hill
Lumber Company exploring the Thorn
as Feigh land in the southwest
quarter Of the northeast quarter Of
section 8, township IS. range 20, have
encountered ore bodies Of high grade.
The latter discovery possesses fea-
lures OF great interest to those explor-
ing on the Guyana range. Samples
from the drillings had every apear-
ance OF schist, in fact the men working
on the drills reported the material as
schist, but analysis showed it to be g.
per cent iron ore. This discovery
would seem to indicate a transforma-
ton Of schist into iron ore through the
same mysterious agency by which the
taconite Of the Mesabi and the jas.
pelyte of the Vermillion have been
converted into iron ore. It is not at
all certain but that in more than one
instance similar material has been en-
countered in other explorations classed
as ordinary schist instead Of ore of
high grade, and drilling discontinued
In consequence.
This accidental discovery is but a
step along the line of progress on the
Guyana. New methods of drilling and
moro careful sampling have proven
supposed low grade deposits to be of
excellent quality, while the discovery
of high grade ore bodies far away from
the so-called line of magnetic attrac-
ton has proven to be a source Of great
disappointment II not of displeasure to
more than one expert who relied up
on dip needle to mark the location
of ore deposits. =.
At 1ronton two concrete shafts sunk
by the New York Foundation COM
pany are now in ledge-the Armour
No. on the southeast quarter of the
northeast quarter Of section 10 and
the Meacham on the northeast quarter
Of the northeast quarter Of section IL;
and work will soon be commenced in
opening up the deposits for shipment
OF ore this season. In the meantime
the Inland Steel Company is preparing
the surface ground to sink a concrete
shaft on the northwest quarter Of the
northeast quarter of section II.
