The Ely miner., 1912-03-15

Kenneth Duncan of the Pioneer
mine at Ely has been engaged as
general manager for the North
American and Consolidated Yer
million Iron Co.'S. He is agraduate
of the University of Minnesota, has
had experience with mining out in
the west, and for the last two
years has been with the Pioneer
mine at Ely. He will resume his
new duties at once. The Con-
Vermilion has placed an order for
a large pump and boiler to be in
stalled at the property. The order
was given to the Imperial Iron
Works at West Duluth. The
opening up of the ore body at the
Vermilion has been accompanied
by an increase In the flow of water
which is characteristic of the Yer
million district on such occasions.
The present pumping facilities at
the property keep the water down,
but more pumping capacity is re-
quired to take care of the flow with
ease, and to care for any possible
increase. The new pump will be
delivered this week. ~ The Con-
solidated Vermilion is still opera
ting with its preliminary plant,
put duplicate of the plant at the
North American is on the ground
and will be installed as soon as the
weather will permit. The plant is
duplicate of that at the North
American, except that steel head
frame is not as yet provided

Moving Picture Investme nts,

It has come to be battle of money
and brains, the theatrical managers on
one side and the film manufacturers
on the other The former are in the
position of untenability in that they
are seeking solution Of their prob
lens, whereas the newer interests
the moving picture men-have solved
their initial problems and are now en-
gagged In improving their environment
and raising the standard of their Of
fer1ngs. The number Of theatrical pro-
ducers is now the smallest in twenty
five years, while the moving picture
magnates are yearly increasing. A
dozen different manufacturers have a
capital of more than million dollars
each. The Cines company, of Rome,
has $10,o00,00O invested. the Kinema-
color company has $6,0OO,O0O, and the
same total is available to the Pathe
Freres Of Paris and New York.-Re-

No one who is not we'll nourished

nervous dyspepsia for forty years
and feared should never get over it.

"Last spring I began taking Vinol
and it has no equal. I soon began
to improve and now 1 am we'll wo-

years. My appetite is good, I sleep

all. These are the plain facts.''
Take our word for it, when you

Night Farming Coming.

Eugene LaBine, a Marshall county
Minnesota farmer, harvested five
hundred acres of grain with one
machine, working day and night.
The binder was run with eight
horses, four to shift, and head
light was used at night, throwing
strong light over the field ahead.
The night shift of horses stood the
work much better than those used
in the heat of the day, and the
farmer predicts that night farming
will soon be used extensively. This
shows how improvements are being
discovered, just as golden grain belt
beers solved many improvements in
the making of long keeping, pure
favored malt foods. T. R. Symons,

TRUST DANGERS.

The defense of these combina-
tons that are sitting competition
is that they serve to effect econ
omy Of production and cheaper
prices. If economy is to be Sc
cured through the sacrifice of the
Independent business man it Is
too great a price to pay. If cheap
ness Of products is secured at
such a price it would be better
that the great inventions Of Watt,
Morse and Edison had withered
in their brains. We boast Of our
enormous resources. If we are
not careful those resources will
be our undoing. The mines will
be our slave pits; the railroads
will be the bonds of our slavery;
the whirl and clang of the mills
will be the noise of the lash and
clanking of our chains .-United
