COUNCIL DECIDES TWO
IMPORTANT POINTS
Accepts Bid of Decaire Incinerator
Co. For Plant and Bid of Me-

While the meeting of the city
council Tuesday evening was de-
void of many Of the features of
routine work which at time char
acterize and usurp the time and
attention of the body, two acts Of
more than ordinary interest to cit
liens were passed upon favorably.
The first was the formal ac-
ceptance Of the bid Of the Decaire

tor plant, the acceptance Of the
bid, which was in the sum of $685.

Of the plans by the state board of

The second was the acceptance
Of the bid of the Mesaba Railway
Company for the street railway.
franchise, the bid of this company
being $500. With the people
known to be behind this project
there is every reason to believe the
present promoters mean business
and that street car connections be-
tween Virginia and other range
communities will become some
thing more substantial than pro-
moter's scheme or a dream within
the next few months.
The council also heard petitions
for new sidewalks and sanitary
sewers from North Side residents,
and ordered the condemnation of
number Of pieces of sidewalks in
various portions Of the city and
their being supplanted with &C.

ST. LOUIS COUNTY
WELL REPRESENTED

Through arrangements perfect
ed Saturday last, ST. Louis county
is assured space at the Northwest
ern Land Show, st. Paul, Deem
Der 1923, the Duluth & Iron
Range and the Duluth, Missabe &
Northern making contract for
same.
The Duluth & Iron Range owns
d vast amount of land in St. Louis
county, and an idea of it's estimat-
ed value may be had from the
fact that 1920 per acre, half
cash, is the low price at which
|sales are now made. And through
the action Of the railroads st.
Louis county will not only be we'll
represented in the Minnesota state
exhibit, but will also have an ex-
hibit of it's own that will attract
attention to the possibilities of the
undeveloped land in this county.
In speking Of the coming land
show, Manager Campbell states
that it will be essentially land
show and that the space to be sold
will go SO far as possible to land
development enterprises-not to
implement people and industrial
enterprises. 1t is the desire to
show land products, and space is
being sold to those who will sup
|ply products for exhibition pur-
poses. The railroads of the north
west are going into the plan with
good spirit, and the two St. Louis
county roads, tapping the richest
sections of the county, may be de-
pended upon to furnish a COM
mendable exhibit from this Sec
ton Of the state.

The city Of Virginia has scored It has
publicity committee, with an office in the city
hall, where the secretary, K. q. Sherwood, is in
Charge supplied with the necessary data to
swer all inquiries as to Virginia or the sur
rounding territory, whether requested person
ally or by letter.
Such bureau of information is one of the
first essentials OF progressive city that be-
lieves in itself and it's tributary section. But the
committees plans also include other forms of
publicity to advertise the attractions of Vir-
ginia, and invite settlement.
Few communities Of it's size have more to
tell. 1t has long ago passed from the class of
mining towns. 1t is now not only the fifth in
the state in population, hut above that in pro-
gressiveness. 1t is practically the county seat
of the range territory, with courthouse and
resident judge.
Its splendid schools, handsome parks, we'll
paved streets, brilliant lights, and fine public
buildings and business blocks speak it's sub
stantial character. More than this, it has fine
agricultural country around it, and market
waiting for the thrifty farmer and gardener.
Virginia deserves publicity. 1t is ripe for
the work Of such committee. Its information
department should be buried in inquiries, and
the more it can TELL the more widely the city
is advertised, the better for all Of St. Louis
county.
This is the way not only to build up, to in
crease population, to bring industries, to settle
the lands and bring in larger agricultural
factor, but it is the way to batter down preju-
dice, making the range and all of its splendid
cities known for what they are.
The News Tribunes columns are open to
Virginia, and to any other of it's sister cities Of
the range that will take such forward steps to
help promote it's welfare and growth, as fully as
they are open to Duluth We will be glad to
supplement the work Of it's own excellent news
papers in this way, and feel that the interest
of each is the interest of ALL

COUNTY AGRICULTURAL

The secretary Of the Virginia
Commercial club, in a letter to
the News Tribune published on
Wednesday, revives the county ag-
ricultural school proposition. All
things considered it is probably
fortunate that this did not carry
at the former election, but it
should be submitted again at the
election next year.
st. Louis county knows a heap
more about agricultural schools
than it did three years ago. We
have found that it is not as great
an expense as it was supposed. If
the state only appropriates sos, 900
for such a school and anticipates
soon making it self-supporting or
nearly so, st. Louis county, that
pays fourth of the taxes of the
state, can we'll afford one Of it's
own fully as complete.
The first appropriation is linn
tied to $4,000, but this would be
sufficient for a considerable begin
ming, following the plan Of the
proposed state school. Moreover,
now that the range cities are to
have an interurban trolley line,
the choice of location is broadly
extended.
The school could be located at
any point on this line and be
easily accessible to every part Of
the range territory. 1t could be
visited at small expense by the
greatest number Of farmers and
the demonstration work observ-
ed. 1t could be reached at min
imum cost by a maximum of the
children of that section.
St. Louis county is so large that
it needs, and should have, two Of
these schools. The range is en-
titled to one. Its agricultural
development is Of the utmost i'm
portance to every part OF the coun-
ty and will benefit Duluth only
less than the cities to the north.
We would suggest to our friends
of the range that the commercial
clubs take up this movement, en-
dorse it, outline a plan for such
school and see that the required
action is taken to place the neces-
sary proposition on the ballot at
the next election.
We believe the vote in Duluth in
it's favor would be as heavy as that
Of the ranges. The population of
that section, $4,000 is greater than
than Of any county Of the state
except the three. Its people are
cosmopolitan in their nativity and
their children, especially, need the
incentive of such school to turn
them to the land or to train them,
if they follow their fathers to the
mines, to have home gardens.
1t is none too early to renew the
agitation of this subject and to
prepare the way for vote that
will be overwhelmingly favorable.
