HoueHToN COUNTY LANDS.
Valuable Iron Bearing Territory Leased
TO New Company.

TO New Company.
The North Range Mineral Lands
company. which owns a large acreage
west of the American iron mine, has
leased IN a royalty basis the 200 acres
immed stely adjoining the American
Boston Mining company, which is con-
trolled by the NJ. a. Hanna interests.
The negotiations for the lease have
been pending for some months.
The North Range Mineral Lands
company is controlled by George j.
Mas and his associates, who operated
drill 800 the property for over three
years and located an exceptionally
large body II ore. 1t was on this tract
that Mr.. Mas put down the deepest
drill hole ever sunk in North America,
IT'S depth being over 5000 feet. Be
sides securing the lease of the 200-acre
tract which is on Section 81, the Am
erican BOSTON company also has an up-
zion to lease the 100 acres adjoining
on the west side, in the same section.
The North Danpe Mineral Lands COM
paur owns 100 acres farther west on
Section 56. which has been partially
explored. Mr.. Mas said that this COM
pany will complete the exploratory
work on this tract and will spend at
least $4,000 on drilling operations. but
ii has not yet been decided to start
the drill work this year.

lands company is Joseph Croze OF
Houghton. The lands concerned are
owned largely by Houghton county
and were leased to Messrs. Croze and
Mas on a royalty basis by the Hough-
ton county board of supervisors some
months ago. The prospect is that the
lands will develop the biggest royalty
payer of any lands owned in the iron
country by Houghton county.

Stray Notes

At the ice trust investigation con-
Quoted here at present the president
of the New York branch of the trust
told an almost pitiful story about the
conditions existing in the ice business
According to his statements the ice
trust lost money during six months of
the year broke even during two months
and made a small profit during -four
months. The entire profits, he stated
did not amount to more than 3 1-2
per cent AN the capital invested. He
held the increase in the production of
artificial ice principally responsible for
the Improbable condition of the ice
business and submitted figures ia
bear out this statement. And to think
that all these years the consumers
have been complaining about the ex-
orbitant prices of ice.

II caused no little commotion the other
day on a First Avenue trolley car,
when a tall young man I'm clerical garb,
suddenly jumped from his seat and
struck n heavyset man beside him a
powerful blow in the face. The man
who had been struck, leaped to his feet
and started for his assailant But the
latter was prepared for him and, fight
ing with the GOODNESS and precision of a
professional boxer, he landed blow after
blow on his stocky adversary, until
the latter collapsed. Then the clergy
man grabbed him by the collar and
dragged him off the car, which had
been brought to stop. He continued
To pummel his victim and when two
detectives arrived, the heavyset young
man was only too glad to place him
self under the protection of the officers.
Then the clergyman quietly explained
that the man whom he had so severely
punished was a pickpocket and that
he had caught him i'm the attempt to
pick his pocket. The man was ar
rested and seemed relieved by the pros
pect of getting out of range of the
minister's powerful.

and the service corporation, which the
courts conld enforce against both. This
appears 10 be the gist of the whole
matter in that Iowa decision. But
there is no doubt of the practical i'm
portance Of that decision, and of its
remedial value in case a preliminary
foundation is laid in such contract
as appears to exist in this case. In all
such troubles hereafter it will only be
necessary to show tho existence of such
contract, and ask an order from the
court for its enforcement. 1t seems
to be conceded on all sides in Des
Moines that tho settlement is good
one, and its cheerful acquiesccuce In
both by the company and by the union
probably insures harmony and service
A result like this cannot but be com,
mendable, and if. indeed. the court in.
junction in Des Moines lays the founda.
tion for settlement OF strikes elsewhere
then the wisdom of that court order
will achieve, fame altogether out OF
proportion to the local significance OF
the strike itself

A GAINFUL COURT PRECEDENT

The street car strike in Des Moines,
Iowa, was bitter but brief Both sides
appear glad to take refuge in the court,
and have an end of the trouble But
the refuge taken in the court involves
an apparently new principle, or new
application of old principle; in court
adjudication. The Iowa court, it APP
pears, In finding a settlement of the
strike that was agreeable alike to the
street car line management and to the
labor union, enforced the duty of the
street car company to provide transpor-
tation to the public. 1t also enjoined
the labor union from violating its
contract with the public service corpor.
alton by striking. The court injunc-
tion prohibits the union from striking,
and requires it, after the strike has
been called, to cancel the order calling
that strike. Both sides, therefore, ap.
pear to be epjoined, the street car com.
pany from cessation of service, and the
labor union from striking.
1t appears in the report that the
sITEei car men > UNION nQQ entered into
contract with the street car corpor-
alton for service on stated terms, But
the union struck on a matter outside of
the contract, involving the discharge
of man whom the union insisted on
having restored. AS the corporation
would not do this, the strike was
ordered. Now the court comes in an
nulling the order for the strike, and
commanding the union to supply labor

hllment of its contract; and the com
pany, 1t appears, must provide the pub.
lie service which its charter requires.
II is justly said that if this sort Of
thing is good law. and in fact il NAV
be good law, it affords an easy way Of
settling strikes. The preliminary step
toward the application of such law.

NEW IMMIGRATION BILL

There is no doubt but that n good
deal of dissatisfaction remains in the
minds of the American people over the
latest treaty we have entered into with
Japan. That treaty abolishes the re-
strictions against the immigration OF
Japanese to this country, on the pledge
of the Japanese officials that such
immigration will be restricted by
Japan. But Japanese pleas in this mat,
ter are under serious suspicion and 1t
wont do to trust too much to them,
The statistics purporting to show that
the Japanese in this country arc de-
creasing in numbers all the time are
clearly deceptive. They are undoubt-
edly increasing in place of decrcas-
ing; and the feeling that this IS so is
probably what has brought Senator Dill
lngham to the front with his new i'm.
migration bill.
This bill aims to exclude all lmmi'
grants who are not capable of beeom-
ing citizens of the United States. The
courts have decided thnt Chinese are
under this ban, and therefore they will
be excluded as heretofore. They will
probably decide the same as to Japan"
ese, il they have not already done so,
The exclusion Of manual laborers not
eligible to citizenship is expected to ex-
clude all Asiatics There will be eX.
cluded also under this bill all who are
excluded now for various diseases or
for liability to become pnupers; and
also, "all male aliens sixteen years OF
age or over who are physically capa-
bic of reading and writing, but unable
to read and write in some language OF
dialect. If they are not capable of
reading and writing, they will be ex"
cluded for that physical disability.
The new bill, we Judge from the re-
port Of its terms printed in The Trib-
une yesterday morning, is expressed in
general phrases, and will not be sus-
ceptible of being construed as touch
ing any national sensibilities on the
raw, but will still be sufficient to eX-
Korea, and Asiatic pauper labor gener-
ally. So considered, it is evidently an
effort, needed effort, too, to strength"
en- the recent treaty with Japan, and
Of it through the repeal of the exclu
sion clause in former treaties against
japanese labor immigration.
