q In connection with the building
and on the site of the present store
building, the new State Bank of
Ely will erect'a modern bank build
ing, thus guaranteeing the city
two handsome structures. These
will enhance the appearance of
Sheridan street. With the cement
walks, the white way and other
buildings in prospect, Ely presents
a lively appearance. This is in
direct opposition to the croaker
who is continually knocking and
predicting, the death of the city
from year to year. Sorry to relate,
Ely has "a few of these but their
dire and calamatitious views are
! not concurred in by sound and
solid business men. It is also
source of gratifcationsthat Ely will
be here when the croaker has been
laid away

move and for the past two months

for the annual school election to be
held on Saturday, JULY 20. between
the hours of 4 and 8 p. m.
The annual meeting, at which all
the voters of the district are ex-
pected to be present will be called
to order at a p. m. The expense
levy, length of school year, new
buildings appropriation, if any,
and such other important matters
will come up at the meeting.
After the meeting, the polls will
be open to O'Clock for the election
of two directors to succeed Clerk
Miller and Treasurer Moonan
whose terms expire.
Both of these gentlemen have
made good officers and will stand
for reelection. In conversation
with Mr.. Miller he stated that he
would not make a fight for the
Office providing some other, good
man wanted the place, but if the
voters again saw fit to honor him
with reelection he would accept.
We understand that Mr.. Moonan
has expressed himself in similar
strain.
So far no candidates have
announced themselves. Some
names are being juggled with but
nothing definite has resulted.
Be at the meeting and remember
it.begins at o clock on Saturday

learn that a full-fedged Cyclone
passed oversthe city Sunday night
at about IL o'clock. The cyclone
was full shaped and travelled at a
good pace.some $50 or 200 feet in
the air. The funnel shaped cloud
passed up Sheridan street and at
the top of the hill struck out more

was marked with a fine white sand

Never leave it, even for a short
time without putting it out with
water or dirt.
4. Don't build a camp fire against
a tree or log. Build a small one
where you can scrape away the

sides of it.
S. Don't build bonfres. The
wind may come up at any time and
start fire you cannot control.
6. If you discover a fire, put it

These fires occurred at a season
when no electric storms prevailed,
so none of them can be ascribed to
natural causes. Since human
carelessness and negligence have
caused this number of fires already
this season, it behoves every good
citizen to use every precaution
himself and to warn others against
the danger which follows careless
ness with FIRE in the woods.
Every person who travels in the
forest, whether as an individual or
member of corporation, or wheth-
er for pleasure or profit should
realize his direct responsibility for
the safetyof public resources and
private property. and use the same
care to prevent fire in the woods
that he would use in his own home.
Every dollars worth of timber
destroyed represents at least IS
cents lost to the community. The
northwest's most valuable resource
is TIMBER 1t can only be saved
from destruction by getting the as
sistance ,of every citizen to use
these simple rules for care with fire
in the woods.
1. Be sure your match is out
before you throw it away.
2. Knock out your pipe ashes or
throw your cigar or cigarette stump
where there is nothing to catch fire.
8. Don't build a camp fire any
larger than is absolutely necessary.

Mistake of Democrats,

''Our Democratic friends are misiak-
en-" said the president. The election
of 1910 was not a declaration in favor
OF a tariff for revenue or free trade, This
is shown by the fact that the Demo-
cratic vote was less rather than greater
than &c had been in the presidential elcc-
ton. The defeat of the Republican party
came not from an increase In Democrat
lC votes but from a detection OF l;epuO-
lcan votes, |. e.. OF It's own members
