successful attempts to clear the fence
but in the third, for which she Sc

EVELETH TOWNS
IN A QUANDARY
Judge Martin Hughes to Pass OF
Validity of Charter Election
Next Tuesday.

The good people of the fine littl<
city of Eveleth just over the hill fror
Virginia are in state of sore per.
plexity this week, following the mud.
die attending the charter election a
week ago. No one is quite sure
whether or not the city has a new
charter and the recount Of the
votes cast has not served to materially
clarity the atmosphere.
The new charter was submitted to
the people of Eveleth one week ago
last Tuesday and on the face of the
returns it was defeated by one vote
ur-sevenths Of the total vote being
necessary to carry it.
A recount was petitioned for and
granted and the board discovered
that the charter had been carried by
one vote. Three votes which were
not legibly marked were held out and
submitted to the Judge of the recount.
He threw out one and allowed the
other two to be counted against the
charter. The vote was 267 for the
charter as compared with 1919 against,
In the meantime it has been dis
covered that a resident of the Fifth
ward who voted against the charter
voted in the wrong ward and his vote
is therefore illegal. The matter goes
before Judge Hughes on this issue and
if the court decides the vote was IL
legally cast the matter will stand one
vote more than the necessary major
ity for the charter.
The opposition for the charter it is
said came largely from the retail
liquor dealers, while it was also op-
posed by some of the present city off,
Gals.
The regular city election is to be
held the first Tuesday in November
and no one is able to declare his can
didacy or get into the game of solicit
ing votes until the charter has been
disposed of.

BIG CROWD GOING TO
DULUTH FOOTBALL GAME

A big crowd OF Virginia football
fans will accompany the Virginia city
football team to Duluth next Sunday
to attend the game at Athletic park
in which the local eleven meets the
Adams team of Duluth. Eighteen
players will go with the team. Henry
Boyle will be one of the officials and
Coach Rademacher will have charge
of the team on the field. Manager
Ralph Wilk will also be on the job.
Several automobile parties plan to go
down from Virginia and it is prob
able a special car may be chartered
to accommodate the team and the fans
who will accompany it. At Duluth
there is the keenest interest in the
game. There has been some little
betting on the outcome and the fact
money is being put up even indicates
that Duluth fans believe Virginia has
a good chance with the fast Adams ag-
gregation.

shown that there IS some clause IN
state law specifically making the ac-
ton Of the council in granting che
license illegal it will be granted, as .
majority of the members favor it on
the ground that when the license Of
Patrick Sullivan was revoked spite
and Misrepresentation led the council
to take the action it did. Ansel j.
Sullivan is q a,son of Patrick Sullivan,
who is one Of. .Virginia's oldest resi-
dents. The license he seeks to secure
would authorize the reopening Of the
Sullivan saloon which was closed last
spring when the council cancelled Pat
rick Sullivan's license because his bar
tender kept the place open after hours.

.
Laying On of Hands Will Be Done by
DR.. COlgrove at Office
When Necessary.

Lickin's don't go in the schools of
Virginia.
If the laying on of hands is found
to be absolutely necessary, the time
will be the psychological moment, the
place will be the Office of DR.. Colgrove
and the medium will be the mild-man-
nered superintendent of the schools of
Virginia equipped with a perfectly
good, old-fashioned birchen rule and
sufficient unto the day shall be the
evil thereof.
All this and much more was indi-
Gated at the second meeting of the
teachers of the Virginia schools yes
terday afternoon when Superintendent
DR.. Colgrove addressed the teachers
on the subject of disipline.
DR.. Colgrove clearly indicated that
corporal punishment must not be ad-
ministered by any Of the teachers at
any Of the schools. He favors cor
poral punishment in extreme cases,
but in extreme cases only. He will
administer it himself.
Since the opening Of the present
school year chastisement has been
necessary in only two cases. The
city's school population is about 5000.
DR.. Colgrove told the teachers
yesterday that as many as desired,
without crippling the, teaching force
in the schools, might attend the meet
ing of the state educational associa-
tion at Minneapolis next week. The
school board will decide today on the
advisability of closing the high school
Thursday and Friday Of next week
to permit the high school teachers to
attend the meeting.

there wasn't any discussion about the

GERS of the club did not attempt to
disguise their disappointment this
morning. They cast about for chari-
table excuses to account for it all and
freely blamed the fine weather.

the majority of Virginia business folk
seem to be too busy to take much in

is necessary is another opportunity
and they will turn out in sufficient
numbers to get going on the banquet
