Horace Stevens Dead

Horace J. Stevens, an authority
on copper mining of national re-
putation and one of the best-known
newspaper men in the upper pen
insula of Michigan, dropped dead
in his Office at Houghton, Mich,
Monday of heart disease.
Mr.. Stevens was formerly editor
of daily newspaper at Ishpeming,
Mich, and for several years was
connected with various newspapers
in the Lake Superior district. For
the past ten years he has published
a copper handbook, recognized as
authority on copper by mining men
in all parts of the country. He
was 48 years old and leaves a
family.

SHORT ROUTE
Prominent Railroad Builder
FayOrs Ely Route

William J. Ross of Fort William
passed through Duluth last week
and in the course of his remarks
made some points in favor of
shorter route between Duluth and
Port Arthur.
Mr.. Ross is impressed with the
need of a shorter line of communi
cation between the American and
the Canadian head of the lakes,
and speaking as railroad builder
of more than 80 years experience
he says that for the company which
will build an air line along the
north shore or connect up the log
ging roads already built there in
fortune, as such a line will tap
district that is becoming richer
year by year and through which
already much freight is passing
from the east to the west, with a
grain traffic from the west to the
east so large that the railroads are
being taxed beyond their ability to
carry it. A road connecting Fort
William with Duluth would divert
much of this traffic over American
lines and would prove mutual
benefit of the two countries. Mr..
Ross favors the building of the link
between the Port Arthur, Duluth
& Western railway and Ely, the
end of the track of the Duluth &
Iron Range railway. The distance
between these two points is about
IS miles. Running rights over the
Duluth & Iron Range could pro-
badly then be secured and this
would give direct entry into Du-
luth.
"The enormous wheat crop of
the Canadian west last year has
taught the cities of Port Arthur
and Fort William that they must
prepare more accommodation if
they are to hold the business, {"
said Mr.. Ross, and I am informed
that contracts are already let or to
be let which will increase the
elevator capacity of the two towns
from 80, 900, 900 bushels to so, 000,-
600. These elevators will all be
built this year and will be ready to
receive the coming seasons CROP
Late advices are to the effect
that the cities of Port Arthur and
Fort William are asking the
Canadian Northern to complete the
Port Arthur, Duluth & Western
railway, thus affording through
line. The board of trade of fort

William has been particularly active
and it is pointed out that there is
already a heavy traffic awaiting the

rich new country

Advices received by friends in
this city from Jos. Kelsall are to
the effect that he delayed his
departure and sailed on the Adriatic
instead of the Titanic as at first
supposed. 1t was feared he had
been lost but the later news relieves
the apprehension for his safety.
He will be in Ely some time next

"TO HELP

1t is remarkable the number of
candidates there are who are per-
sonal friends of Wilson, who have
always stood by Wilson and who
want to be elected to help Wilson.
1t reminds us of a few years 81
when everybody running for Office
wanted to be elected to help Roose-
welt. 1t was the one sure s%hibboleth
for election and It was worked to
death. We all know how much
many of the men who were elected
to help Roosevelt" did along that
line after they had taken office.
We do not believe the people will
be fooled a second time, although
the game Is o being worked In
another party. Practically every
Democratic candidate who has de-
clared himself thus far this year,
whether 1t be for congress-, legisla-
ture, alderman or po~undkeeper, has
been. or Is a friend Of Wilson"
and insists that he be elected so as
to help carry out the Wilson poll
cies. Some Of these men are sworn
enemies Of the governor and have
opposed him and his policies as
openly as they have dared On the
surface they have pretended to be
with him as long as it was evident
that he was on top, but secretly
they were hoping for his overthrow
at every move. Many of these men
today ridicule the present open pol
icies of the governor, condemn his
desire for publicity and complain
bitterly about the election reform
laws that he has caused to have en-
acted, saying all sorts OF things un-
der their breath that they do not
dare utter aloud-yet everyone of
these men want TO be elected 40

WHITPENN OVERLY ANXIOUS.

Mayor Otto Whitpenn, of Jersey
City, is making strenuous effort to
become the next governor of New
Jersey. He is not even satisfied to
wait until the term Of the present
Incumbent expires, but has started a
press bureau at work, trying to
force Governor Wilson to resign at
once, SO that the governor can be
elected this fall and Whitpenn hopes
to be the man. Sometimes people
who are overly anxious for a thing
find they Will not get it at all.
The people Of New Jersey are we'll
satisfied with the present executive
and are contented to have him re-
main In office while a candidate for
president, knowing full we'll that no
duty will be neglected. While Mr..
| Whitpenn may be a man Of ability,
the people Of New Jersey are not
ready to see him rafting around in
Woodrow Wilson's shoes as the ex-
| ecutive OF the state, just yet. We
may have to accept a man OF Whit
penis standard when Governor Will
son Is through, but we are not going
to take him any sooner than we have

SCULLY ON RIGHT SIDE.

1t was with a whole lot Of salts
faction that the people OF the third
congressional district learned that
Congressman Scully was among
those Democrats who voted In favor
Of authorizing the construction Of
more battleships this year, when the
matter was brought before the DEM
ocratic caucus at Washington
Thursday night. While the motion
to appropriate money for battleships
this year was lost in the caucus by
a vote of 10 to go, there Ia yet a
chance that the action will be recon-
sidered and the United States will
be spared the humiliation OF having
her feet ignored by a congress which
is pledged to uphold the American
fighting force on the water.
1t Is to be regretted that any Of
the New Jersey congressman were
found voting against the battleship
program. The Democratic party
platform, adopted at the recent Chi
cago convention, distinctly declares
In favor of an adequate feet and 1T
is hard to understand why the
Democrats in congress have taken
the stand they have.
Commenting on the action the
New York Sun sizes up the situation
exactly when 1t says:
THE action Of the Democrats Of

night signifed only that seventy
representatives were opposed to new
b%attleship construction, and some of

How They Did 1. in Detroit

a grand jury in Detroit is probing
the United Fruit Auction company OF
that city. which is said to have lined
up practically all of the wholesale
commission men. retail dealers ard
peddlers in a pool. covering the mar
ket in a manner which has enabled
the payment of 400 per cent in div.
dends.
The pool. 1t is said. discourages
bidders. and IL the owner of a car OF
fruit is present to bid it in, he is still
taxed the sum of SS400 commits
sion Should the same car be offer
ed the day following. it is proclaimed
as fruit withdrawn and bidding still
further discouraged.
This is doubtless but one of the
many methods which have been prac
ticed in various cities this fall in al
effort TO control the fruit marke
against the grower.
1t looks like it was high time for
legislative bodies to take hand
against these wholesale robbers.
