The Indians have formed probably

DISCOVER
RICH vein OF ORE
DIP NEEDLE CUTS UP FRANKS
BUT FIND PROMISES TO BE
VALUABLE ONE.

Des Moines, Sept 3.-The idiosyn-
Grassy Of dip needle, little instru-
ment used by mining experts IN locat-
ing bodies of ore, has resulted In the
discovery of what promised to be
productive iron range In northern
Minnesota, according to an announce
ment here today. The new range Is
located forty miles south Of Duluth In
Pine county, and is only short dis
tance from the Guyana field. 1t is just
south of the famous Masabe range,
and on a line due west Of the Gogebic
range in Wisconsin. Preliminary tests
already have been proven assays show.
ing high percentages Of metal.
George Kuhns, q business man of
Des Moines, is the discoverer of what
experts say Is an apparently inexhaust-
ible lode. Some weeks ago, while near
Cloverton, on property which he and
ether Des Moines men had previously
acquired, he applied the dip needle
test: The instrument to his utter as
tonishment registered from fifty to
sixty degrees 1t was unheard OF. Even
the finest properties in existence any
where on earth were not In the same
class. In the excitement over the ap-
parent revelations Of the needle, Mr..
Kuhns rushed to the first train for
Des Moines and Immediately upon his
arrival here began laying plans for de-
veloping the property.
Plenty Of Assistance.
He confided his plans to few
friends and experienced the greatest
difficulty in keeping them at a proper
\ tO fol IN,
line. During the preliminary negotia-
tions. however, another test OF the dip
needle was made-this time In Mr.
Kuhns' back yard in Des Moines. To
his surprise he found that the instru-
ment registered fifty degrees. Then
he decided that the machine needed
adjustment With the needle In prop
er shape, new tests were made In the
new field, and registrations of from
eight to twelve degrees gave promise
Of even greater things.
Mr.. Kuhns has associated with him
in the ownership of about 1000 acres
along this range: III. w. Byers,s form-
erly attorney general of Iowa; N. -.
iGuernsey, formerly OF Des Moines, but
new OF New York; II, NJ. Earle and DR..
F. j. Will Of Des Moines. They pur-
chased the land for investment several
years ago. A recent announcement
that Merritt brothers, prominent north
ern operators, who several years ago
were involved in a legal controversy
with John D. Rockefeller and the
Standard Oil Co., had purchased 5000
acres of land In Wisconsin, adjoining
the property of the Des Moines men,
led to renewed interest in its possibil-
tiles. 1t was then that Mr.. Kuhns be-
gan an investigation.

Montreal, Sept. a.-Ex-Presi-

of the campaign in which hH was de-

greater independence of the judiciary.
His subject was "The Selection and
Tenure Of Judges" He argued that
Judges should be appointed instead of
elected and that they should hold office
for life.
"The greater the independence of
the courts" said Mr.. Taft, "the stI1ng-

ministration of justice. In popular
government the most dihcult problem
is to determine satisfactory method
of selecting the members Of the judic-

Selection of judges by appointment,
he declared, did not altogether deprive
the people OF this right. ''The selec-
ton can be really popular without re-
sorting to an election. The chief ex-

should have found the spirit Of hu-

his little Oliver Twist they could
have taken him not to the work

Hessle "a suburb of HulD where the
orphan children breathed pure air and
ate good food: that Dickens would
have found similar changes at the
