WELL PLEASED
Lake Superior & Nevada Stockholders
Show Loyalty

The reorganization plan of the
Lake Superior & Nevada has been
accepted with enthusiasm by the
stockholders of the company.
Nearly 500, 200 shares have already
been exchanged and the time OF
exchanging stock has been extend
ed to Dec. I'd.
The stockholders of the Lake
Superior & Nevada Development
Company have shown their old
time loyalty to the company by
falling to line with the reorganiza-
ton plan adopted at the special
stockholders meeting of September
23rd, in great numbers. Nearly
half a million shares of stock have
already been sent in to be trans
ferred and stock is still coming in
with every mail. The company is
therefore to be congratulated on
the success it has made, and it is
conceded on every hand that the
new company, when most of the
old stockholders are standing by
it, W i'll have much better chance
to succeed with its mining enter
prises and make it paying pro-
position in the near future, than

CHAs. CHENEY in speaking OF
the tariff in the Minneapolis
Journal has the following to say,
and the logic is good:
The public has sickened of Con-
gressional hearings on the tariff.
1t would rather the Democratic
Congress, in extra session next
April, revised the tariff downward
with little delay than that there
should be extensive hearings,
which would delay action, disturb
business and muddle the question.
The general lines on which the
Democrats will proceed are already
known. The principal bills passed
by the last House will probably be
repassed. They reduce the tariff
on wool and cotton about one-half :.
They enlarge the free list. They
cut the steel and chemical
schedules. They free sugar. The
program also involves direct taxes
to take the place of the sugar re-
venue.
The program will, no doubt, be
fought by the Republican remnant
in the House, on the ground that
it will subject the industries of
America to unfair foreign compe-
titions, will wreck the Federal rev.
enues, and bring on business dis
aster. The Republicans of the
House will not be able to do more
than protest. If the program is
stayed or modified, it must be in
the Senate where the Administra-
ton will have very small major
ity. There the rough edges of the
revenue program may be rounded
in the interest of necessary protec-
ton, because there are Southern
Senators whose constituents want
and need it. These will not vote
for wholesale changes in the tariff
system. ...
Nor can the Democratic Party
as a whole afford to disregard the
truest statement in its platform,
that which declares the tariff to be
so interviewer with industry that
changes must be brought about in
such way as to spare the business
of the Country shock

The time for exchanging the
stock from the old company to it:

been extended until December

sible to take care of their invest

Canada, and in order that all
should have an equal chance to
