Saturday evening on score of 10

their antagonists of last Saturday
on a good round score and were
bent on repeating the stunt. The
Ely team had however, secured two
weeks of excellent practice and
were in far better condition than
for the previous game.

Temporary Inactivity

A report became current about
town Tuesday that the work at the
Lucky Boy property had suspend
ed. On examination it was found
that the coal supply was short and
a temporary shutdown of the shaft
work was ordered in order to save
the small stock of coal to keep the
pumps going. Coal arrived Tues
day and that night everything was
again running along swimmingly.
Superintendent Wa1bank was in
Duluth several days this week ar
ranging for an abundant supply of
coal which according to all accounts
is rather a difficult problem owing
to the small stocks on hand at the
docks.

The General Property Tax

The main reliance of the minor
divisions of the state, and, to a
less extent, of the state itself, is
upon what is termed the general
property tax" levied directly upon
the real and personal property in
the state. The theory of this tax
is that every person should bear
his just share of the public ex-
penses, and that his ability to bear
it is proportional to the value OF
his real and. personal property
This has been the theory upon
which this kind of taxation has
been based since the state wa:
organized.
In the table given in the repor
of the tax commission for 1910 i:
