line between ranges II and ~,
which is about one mile west OF
that originally accepted.
According to the special county
attorney there is general law on
the statute books of Minnesota
which declares tina; boundary lines
may not be changed by legislative
action, but only after a vote by the
people concerned in the question.
Therefore, Mr.. Adams declares the
enactment was unconstitutional
and could not be enforced.
But in 1895 no one questioned
the right of the legislature and
both Lake and Saint Louis counties
accepted the law as final, How
ever, the people living on the strip
in dispute were not satisfied with
the change, and as attorneys delved
into the constitutionality of the
proceeding it was decided that
Lake county had not a legal right
to the land. The county auditor
was petitioned by the inhabitants
of the strip to remove theirproperty
from the jurisdiction Of Lake
county, and after due federation
and upon advice of attorneys, on
December 1, 1o10t Auditor Odin
Halden placed the properly on the
tax books of Saint Louis county.
This action did not, however
bring the desired relief I'd the pro-
perty holders, as they we're then
required to pay taxes to Two coun-
ties instead of one Lake refusing
to relinquish the rights granted it
by the state. The question hung
fire, though, no action bling taken
by either party until thelatter part
of September, 1911, when Lake
county petitioned the attorney
generals Office to move in the
matter.
On October 2 the attorney gen.
eral appeared before the supreme
court and asked that a writ of quo
warranto be issued ag,inst Saint
Louis county, which WIS granted,
and the chief justice ordered Saint
Louis county to appear Ia court to
show by what right il collected
taxes on the disputed pfpperty.
Saint Louis county fikd its brief
on October %. in which, declared
the unconstitutionalitr = of the
enactment of the legislature and
demanded that Lake comfy be en-
joined from collecting taxes on the
strip. The hearing was set for
January IL and the brio of the at.

HEARD TODAY
Lake and st. Louis County
Line Dispute

Special County Attorney c. E..
Adams, says the Duluth News
Tribune, received a copy of At
torney General George 7. Simp-
sons brief in the case involving
the definite location of the
boundary line between Saint Louis
and Lake counties. The case is
without precedent in the state, and
presents a number of interesting
legal points. The date of hearing
has been set by the supreme court
for January IL, today and should
the decision be unfavorable to
Saint Louis county a strip fully a
mile wide will be gained by Lake
county.
In 1856 the territorial legislature
of Minnesota fixed the boundary
between the two counties as being
a line drawn due north from the
mouth of Knife river to the inter
national boundary. For nearly
forty years this line was accepted
by both counties, until in 1895 the
state legislature enacted law fix
ing the boundary on the dividing

SUICIDED
Dan SikOra Blasts Himself
with Dynamite

Erick Siren who on. Monday was
engaged in chopping wood between
Section 80 and Winton was startled
at about 1 o'clock with the loud
report of blast in the woods near
him. He investigated and found
the dismembered remains of man
scattered about the ground.
Siren at once went to Winton
and notified the authorities who
found the remains of Dan Sikora
and all indications pointed to
suicide. From appearances Sikora
had fired some dynamite and laid
down on it., His body was picked
up in fragments and brought to
Ely where Undertaken Seiberlich
prepared it for burial, the funeral
taking place Wednesday.
Sikora was injured at Section 80
on Nov. Is and since that time has
been laid up. Last week he went
to the mine and drew his club pay
and at once went to Winton where
he stayed until the day of his death.
At 10 o'clock that morning he said

in preparation to extend its Port
Arthur line from the Canadian
border to the Vermilion iron range
and from there to connect with its
Duluth line, is the declaration of a
well-known mining man who has
returned to Duluth from a visit to
Tower and Ely.
He says that preliminary surveys
have been made from point on
the Canadian Northern's line north
of Virginia to Tower, distance of
twenty-five miles, and states that
iron stakes have already been
driven to mark the survey.
This is taken to mean that the
Mckenzie Mann interests have de-
cided to tap the Vermilion iron
range and will probably be an
active shipper from that range
within the next two years.
The new line. if built, will put
Duluth in closer communication
with Port Arthur and the Canadian
Head of the Lakes.

Many of our lovers of the ski

that some new records will be made.
Virginia has hung up purses to the
amount of $500 and already has rs
entries. Special prizes have been
hung UP for the most graceful
rider, longest standing jump and
twin jump. The citizens promise
all visitors a good time and those
attending will be assured of sport
all the time.

upon leaving the Finnish saloon
that he would go to Section 80 and
see about going to work the next
day, and return. He evidently
secured the dynamite while there
and committed suicide on the road
back. From indications it seems
he first built fire and thawed the
dynamite before firing it.
Sikora was about 80 years of age
and native of Roumania. Moth
ing is known of his people.

IRON ORE IN 1911
According to United States
Geological Survey

Preliminary estimates of iron ore
sold in 1911 were sent to the
Geological Survey by 26 of the
largest iron mining companies in
the United States at the close of
year. The combined output of
these companies represents more
than 80 per cent of the total pro-
duction of the United States.
From these returns it is estimated
by E. F. Burchard, of the Survey,
that the total quantity of iron ore
marketed in the United States in
1911, not including stocks left at
the mines, was between 43, 100000
and 100000 long tons. This
quantity represents decrease of
% to "a per cent of the sales for
1910. which aggregated Sc, $780,
734 long tons. The output for
1910 was the largest quantity of
iron ore ever marketed in a single
year in the United States, and ac-
cording to the present estimate the
quantity produced in the year 1911
will take fifth place, being exceed
ed by that of 1910, 1907, 1909 and
1906 in the order named. 1t is
estimated that of the ore produced
in 1911 between 39,250,0OO and
49, 100000 long tons was red
hematite, the remainder consisting
of brown hematite, magnetic, and
iron. carbonate ores. According to
the returns received the Lake STU
perior district, in Minnesota. Mich
igan, and Wisconsin, apparently
produced between 33,O0O,0 900 and
IS, 100000 long tons of red and
specular hematite, which represents
a decrease of % to % per cent COM
pared with the production of 1910
46, 1928, 743 long tons.
In the Birmingham district, Ala
bama, the second largest iron-min-
ing center. the production of iron
ore apparently decreased Is to 20
per cent from that of 1910. the
estimated production for 1911 be-
ling between $3.50, 900 and 3.125,
900 long tons compared with 81
802,11 long tons in the preceding
year. The ore mined in the Bir-
mingham district of red and brown
hematite in the proportion of about
to 1.
The production of iron ore in
Tennessee and Virginia apparently
decreased only about 16 per cent.
according to reports from the prin-
cipal producers in those States.
As the production of pig iron for
1911 may exceed %, 100000 tons,
a larger production of iron ore
might appear to be required than
has been estimated above, but it
must be considered that at the
close of 1910 there was 9,4O8, 235
long tons of iron ore in stock at
the mines in the United States, and
that of this total 8,471, 108 long
tons was at the mines in the Lake
Superior district. Just how heavily
this surplus stock of ore was drawn
upon in 1911 it is impossible to
state at present, but owing to the
increased activity in the manu-
facture of pig iron toward the close
of 1911 it is probable that the 1910
surplus was in part cleaned up and
that at the end of of 19i1 only
relatively small quantity of iron
ore remained at the mines.
