HEAVY ORE MOVEMENT
FROM EASTERN DOCKS
Demand for Ore in December Was Better
Than for Many Years.


A report from Cleveland. O., is to
the effect that ore has been moving of
the Lake Erie docks faster this month
than during the same month in many
years previous Some Of the shipments
are being made to furnaces which did
no. take any ore TO speak Of during the
shipping season.
The warm weather Of the past ten
DAYS or more has been favorable for
shipping ore, and has had much 20 90
with the good movement. There are
increased calls from independent fur
naces that have not been particularly
active OF late This il taken as a very
encouraging sign by the ore interests.
THE feeling exists among ore agents
in Cleveland that the l9l season, with
its 30, 600, 900 ton ore movement, will
be the worst that the ore men Will
nave for some time 10 come. For sew
eraI years the ore movement has work
ed in cycles. A light movement is in
variably followed by two seasons which
are considerably better.
Ii is believed by mining men that
the reduction in the ore freight charges
between the mines and the head OF the
lako ports will result in more ore going
ont next season than would be shipped
IL the old rates pevailed Should the
railroads from the Lake Erie ports re-
duce their rates 1t Is predicted that the
Lake Superior product wonld find a
still larger market In the East.
Vessel owners say that a 80. 900. 600
ton movement is necessary TO keep the
present feet busy throughout the en-
tire season They also say that heavy
reductions in freight rates, whether IL
be from the mines To- the upper lake
ports. or between the lower lake docks
and furnaces, would bring such ship
ment ons step nearer.
Several prominent mining men, in
GLIDING Joseph Sellwood of Duluth.
spent part OF last week on the Mesaha
range They expressed themselves as
confident that the ore business will be
much better next season than during
1911. Among those who expressed op
timistic views of the iron situation
were Gen. Snpt. Ireland. of the NJ. A.
Hanna interests. and G., Il. Hendricks.

According 10 information given ont
the report that unless owners Of mort
cages of record pay the specific tax OF
one half of one per cent provided Tor
under new law passed at the last ses-
sion of the legislature, they would be
subject TO taxation under the old law.
is quite misleading. IL Is stated that
the new law does not require That hol-
ders of mortgages OF record shall pay
the specific tax provided by January
To escape having them placed on the
tax rolls, but asserts that IL Is 10
the advantage OF holdersof such mort
cages to appear at the treasurer's Office
at any time up TO April. when the
tax rolls are made, and Iay the a
mount required.
Mortgages on which the specific
tax Is not paid by April will become
subject TO taxation under the old law, =
said Mr.. Malloch.
''In case part of the mortgage may
have been paid. the owner can make
affidavit TO the amount remaining I'M
paid and pay a tax OF one-half OF one
per cent OF such amount, after which
payment the mortgage is not subject
to further taxation. AS To mortgages
OF record or which will be recorded
before Jan. /, 1t is optional with the
holder whether he pays taxes under the
new mortgage tax law.
mo mortgage given after Jan. l.
1912, has any legal standing until after
il is recorded and the tax of ona-half
per cent is paid as provided by the
now law. This provision does not APP
ply. however, 10 mortgages recorded
before Januray /. In most cases II
will be cheaper for mortgage holders
to pay the specific tax of one halt OF
one per cent before April !, than to lei
them become taxable by default under
the general tax laws. for once the spe
cihc tax il paid. no further tax neec
be paid during the life OF the mort
gage

The last issue oI Isnpeming Iron Ore
contained very sensible editorial on
the devpeloment OF the agricultural re-
sources of the apper peninsula. Iron
ore contends that the man who invents
stump puller and rids some OF the
upper peninsula agricultural lands OF
the stumps that interfere with the cul-
tiyating of crops upon those lands will
be of more practical benefit TO upper

We are heartily in accord wiIh Iron
Ore in the position IL has taken. lt is
the one we have maintained right a

especially settlers from the cities and
other places where the hardships OF

to cone to the upper peninsula is
detriment instead OF a blessing. Ad-
vertising Is all right but there must be
something back Of the Advertising; we
must have the goods in salable shape.
This booming of the upper peninsula
is a good thing for the fellow who has
a lot OF cut lands to sell but II is q
poor thing for the fellow who has his
money invested in such way that he
is dependant upon the upper peninsula

he needs money and he needs the

We have heard tnat in some Of the
adjoining states law mas been enacted
whereby a number OF settlers in cut

their lands be inspected by state
official who fixes a cost per acre foi

farmers are then authorized to issue

them up into the air like a volcano.
Mr.. Rockefeller's home stands on a hill
and the chimney has an exceptionally
strong draught. Besides being impos-
sible to keep a fire under the boiler
there was danger of the roof catching
fire.
The architects decided to put fireproc&
lining in the fiue to reduce it's size. and
then a three-ton cement cap was placed
on top of it. This solved the coal prob
lem. Now the contractors are puzzling
as to the best way of getting the con

course, out Of the question.
