Anoka people are stirred up over
the proposed trunk road from Inter-
national Falls to Minneapolis. At
the Cambridge meeting the route Sc
lected for the trunk line road through
Anoka county was along the extreme
eastern end of the county and, it was
claimed, would be of no benefit to the
great majority of the people of the
county. The majority of the Anoka
representatives present at the meeting
protested against the proposed route
of the trunk line road through their
county. Our Anoka friends need not
worry over the proposed road. There
will never be mile of it built under
the provisions of the Elwell law as
it now stands. The law is incongru.

Under treaty between the two coun-

N. p. Langford, the grand old man
of ST. Paul, died at his homo in that
city yesterday afternoon. He was a
native of New York state and was
born in 1882. Mr.. Langford figured
largely in the early history of Mon
tana, and was an active member of
the vigilantes in the sixties when it
became necessary for the law-abiding
people Of that territory to combine
for the protection of life and property.
He was elected president of the Min
nesota Historical society in 1905, he
was also a member of the Ramsey
county board of control, serving in
both positions until his death. Mr..
Langford was most companionable
gentleman and a fine type of the old
pioneers who are fast passing away.

At the annual banquet of the re-
union of the Society of the Army of
the Tennessee at Council Bluffs last
Thursday Archbishop John Ireland
delivered powerful address on
"American Democracy. He con-
demned the initiative, referendum and
recall, saying that "they are nothing
more or less than the madness OF
democracy. He pointed out the evils
which must inevitably result from the
adoption of the initiative, referendum
and recall, and called particular at
tention to the peril of applying the
recall to the judiciary. The arch
bishops speech was common sense
and convincing, and those who are
inclined to favor the initiative, refer
endum and recall should procure 9
printed copy and carefully peruse it.

Two horses which have served faith

years have been mustered out of SER

them out of service is we'll and good,

WHY THEY DON'T LIKE ED. SMITH.
Hon. E. E. Smith, chairman of the
republican state committee, seems to
be an eyesore to the Progressive Re-
publican League of Hennepin county.
Some of the members of the league

he is an all-around bad man. The
truth Of the matter is the only real
grievance the league has against Mr..
Smith is that he managed the last

a THE MOUNTAIN IRON PROPERTY.
It is stated in the daily papers that
Attorney General Simpson is about to
start proceedings to recover the
famous Mountain Iron property on
the Mesabe range in St. Louis county
for the state. The land in question
was duly selected by the state as
school indemnity land on February
9, 1884, and for some unaccountable
reason was relinquished by the then
state auditor, W. W. Braden, on
January rs, 1883. State Auditor
Dunn brought the matter to the atten-
ton OF the 1897 legislature-see pages
60, 81 and 81, state auditors report for
fiscal years 1895 and 1896. The matter
was investigated by that legislature
see appendix to 1897 house journal.
Special counsel was appointed to
assist the attorney general in estab-
fishing the states claim. The special
counsel reported that the land was ir-
retrievably lost to the state. This
property was worth probably 500, 000,-
900. We have always believed that
this valuable property was lost to the
state through the connivance of state
officers, and that more than one state
officer was interested in the nefarious
transaction. While the title to the
land was never vested in the state,
had the selection been permitted to
stand-had not Auditor Braden virtu-
ally relinquished the valuable tracts
the state would undoubtedly have
obtained title and the permanent
school fund would have been s2o,ooo,.
600 richer than it is. It was to this
Mountain Iron transaction that r. G.
Dunn referred in the republican
state convention of 1910. We wish
Attorney General Simpson a hearty
Godspeed in his efforts to recover
the Mountain Iron property, but W
have small hopes of his success.

Hon. G. 81. Mattson of Roseau, in
a beautifully worded editorial in his
