AWAIT NEW CONNECTIONS
WITH OPENING OF THE
CANADIAN NORTHERN LIME

Biwabik and other Mesaba range
points are anxiously awaiting the
running Of cars on the new Canadian
Northern line from Duluth to Vir-
ginia, as this will mean they will get
service on the Missabe road from
Duluth. Many of the coaches in SER
vice on the Missa|be run" from Du-
luth will be used from the Zenith
City to Biwabik and the other towns.
1t is also believed the Missabe road
will provide more trains in competi-
ton with the new line.
From present indications the new
line will not be in operation this
fall, "sink-holes" and other obsta-
cles encountered by the engineers on
the new road seriously retarding
construction work. With the COM
pletion Of the Central avenue library
it is expected work will be COM
menced on the razing Of the Carne-
gle library. which will be the site
of the new Canadian Northern depot.

Bids will be opened today at the
Lyceum Building, Duluth, by Chief
Engineer Pickles Of the Canadian

structure from the old Carnegie
Library, which IL to be tho site of

With the opening Of the new line
from Duluth to Virginia and the
completion Of the railroad structures
an entire re-arrangement Of train
schedules will doubtless be made.
The officials Of the new road have
made plans to handle the mechanical
end OF the business, work recently
starting in the new machine shops
here by the older mechanics Of the
line. The new shops at Duluth will
also be completed soon and this will
mean that few of the Virginia en-

DULUTH ZIMMERMAN
PLEASED WITH OUTLOOK

According to James P. Mcdonald,
secretary of the Mullery-McDonald
company, Duluth, the outlook in the
lumber industry is very bright. He
comedies Virginia first place in the
lumber output and believes next year
will be a banner one for all con-
cerned in numbering.
In a statement issued from the
Virginia & Rainy Lake Lumber COM
pany Offices the report that Frazer,
B. c., has larger mill than the one
here is raped, as the Virginia mills
easily surpass any western mill. The
Inman-Paulson mill record Of 1872
100000 has also bee@ excelled here
by the local plant, which averages
1900 men on the payroll during the
summer months.

NINE INSPEC1os'S OP|N-
ION WILL Be ASKED
Council viii Call In Services of State
Inspector to Determine Whether or
Not Danger to Residents Exists
From Mining Operations at the
Madrid Mine.

Following the reading of a report
submitted by Alderman Mattson,
chairman of the committee appoint
ed to investigate existing conditions
at the Madrid mine in the northern
part of the city, discussion on the
point brought out variance of opin-
ion among aldermen as to existing
danger to residents of the section
through the operations being carried
on and resulted in a motion to call
in the state mine inspector to make
formal report as to whether or not
the work in progress constitutes
menace to person and property.
In Alderman Mattson's report he
expressed the belief the company
should be restrained from further
work under the streets and alleys OF
that part of the city, and that the
city should institute immediate &C.
ton in the matter, compelling ces-
sation of work and the refilling of
any drifts beneath the street.
Alderman NOLAN moved that the
city attorney be instructed to take
such steps as might be necessary to
stop the company from further work,
but this motion was lost after
lengthy discussion in which various
of the aldermen and mayor partici-
pated, action being deferred until
such time an report from the state
official might be received.
The session of the council was cut
short owing to the desire of some to
attend the democratic rally at the
Fay Opera that evening. The ordi-
nance calling for the removal Of
snow and ice from sidewalks was
laid over for one week, and other
matters coming before the body were
passed quickly. The municipal court
showed signs of good business, con-
tributing $324.9O for the past week
in fines and costs. The lease to a
portion of Oliver ground near the
incinerator plant for city slaughter
house purposes was considered, but
in consideration of the provision
such plant must be self-sus-
tanning it was practically decided to
not accept of same, the mayor ex-
pressing the idea that the lease
should be returned to the mining
company and that the city should
condemn for slaughter house site,
thus freeing the municipality from
any dictation from the company. The
mayor also stated that he is not in
favor of slaughter house at the
point mentioned, considering that
owing to it's proximity to the park
it had several Objectionable features.
The question was finally laid over
for future consideration.

WRECKED PLANE FOUND.

LOS ANGELES, Dec 17.-Frag
ments of the hydro o-aerOplane and
clothing washed ashore and promptly
identified proved to practical con-
clusiveness today that Aviator Hor-
nee Kearney and his reporter com
RAMON Chester Lawrence, met death
soon after they started last Saturday
on their proposed flight to San Fran
cisco The circumstances of their
death will probably always remain a
hidden secret of the sea- They may
have perished within a few hours
after they Vanished on Saturday
afternoon in the mists off Point, Fir
min, or they may have clung des-
perately to the fragile craft through
the stormy night and the next day.
Judging from the position of the
wreckage which gave today the first
definate clew of their fate, they died
almost within shouting distance of
the shore, and probably their bodies
now rest in the tangled mOrass of
kelp beds near RedOndo Beach

NO VESTED RIGHTS.

A telegram from Senator AshurSt
received by the Parker board of trade
last Wednesday reads:
'Greeley-Arizona Irrigation com
pany has no vested rights and any
payment made to them would, to my
mind, be another burden on Parker
people / am watching matters close
ly and will let you know any new de-
velopments.
The above relates to the recent re-
commentator by the state land board
for the reimburse ement to the Greeley
company of all moneys expended by
that corporation in its promotion OF
the Parker project Evidently Sena-
tor Ashurst is opposed to such an an
endment to the bill providing for the
opening and reclamation of the Colo
rado River Indian reservation. It is
also evident that the water rights of
the government are ample i'm the pre-
misses.

IMPERIAL COTTON OUTPUT.

Nine hundred thousand pounds OF
the finest cotton ever grown in Am
erica will be one of Imperial valleys
contributions to the holiday crops of
1912. Most of this crop is destined
for the Orient and is moving briskly
from Ell Centre and Thermal on the
Southern Pacific road, toward San
Francisco. From there it will be
sent by steamship to Yokahoma and
Hongkong.
part of this cotton is the Duran
go cotton with long staple, which
brings 500 more bale than other
kinds and is considered especially
choice. Imperial valley, because of
it's wonderfully dry and warm climate
and excellent soil, is an ideal place
for cotton raising and the excellence
OF it's product promises to make it
more famous ultimately than the

AGE PROJECT OF COLORADO
RIVER WATERS.

LOS ANGELES, Cal, Dec. 49,
General Frank c. Prescott, back from
Washington, d. c. where he went in
the interest of the project to con
serve the overflow waters of the
Colorado river asserted yesterday
that Senator Works and Congressman
Stephens are both enthusiastic over
the plan and are working to secure
an appropriation for the proposed i'm
provement work. The project also
has the unqualified support of Chiet
Engineer Newell of the Bureau OF
Reclamation, he says
after l had explained the situa-
tion to Senator Works. said Gen
eral Prescott, 'and told him of the
public sentiment here behind the
proposed work of reclamation, he
told me he believed the project was
of ultimate necessity. He also assert
ed that in his opinion federal work
was. needed along the Colorado river
to such an extent that, even though
it should not be provided for by an
amendment to the Newlands Bill, ii
was of sufficient merit to warrant
the passage of a seperate bill, relat-
ing specifically to the Colorado river
Congressman w. d. Stephens as
sured me that he was fully in accord
with the end in view but as to
whether the work should be provided
for by an amendment to the Newlands
Bill or by seperate appropriation
he was not prepared to say until
after further consideration. Congress
man Stephens also said, in view OF
the international phase of the mat
ter, he thought that an obligation
rested on the United States to make
the Improvements
General Prescott further says that
while he does not desire to throw a
wet blanket over the prospects of the
Newlands' Bill he fears, from what
he was able to learn at the Capital
City, that the bill will not pass the
present Congress, because of the size
of the appropriation asked. He be-
lieves, however, that a conservative
bill. providing for a federal appro-
priaticG for the purpose OF improv-
ing the Colorado river, might pass at
this session.

WILL DOUBLE VALUES.

Here are some of the salient points
set forth in Geo. H. MaxwelPs ad-
dress before the people of the I'm
perial valley recently according to
the Brawley News:
''The passage of this bill will
double the value of every piece of
property, whether town, city or ranch
holdings.
Il have no doubt of the validity of
your water rights. l believe that you
can maintain them forever against all
comers. But don't think you won't
have to fight for them The reser-
voirs provided for by the passage OF
the Newlands' bill will store enough
water for all the land in the Colorado
river valleys, and fights over water
rights will be settled for all time.

NEW STYLE STAMPS.

Styles III postage stamps will
change with the calanderS on Janu-
ary l. Instead of the pink and greer
stamps of the two and one cent vari
eties with g. Washingtons nose
looking like that of a tippler, the
stamps that will be offered for sale
after January will be red and green
with artistic and historic trimmings.
The new stamps are the Panama
Pacific commemorative issue and
will be Offered for sale unless the old
style stamp is requested. These
stamps will be larger than the ones
now in use.
The new stamps will measure
three-fourths by one and one-sixteen-
tn inches, the broadside being the
horizontal way. This is quite a bit
larger than the stamps now in use,
so much so that but seventy stamps
can be printed to the sheet, whereas
100 stamps may be printed to each
sheet of the present series.

from members of what they desired
to be included in the list of subjects
enumerated in the call on which
legislative action might be taken and
it was the idea of the Governor that
the scope would be very broad. AT
