MADE It SEVEN
High School Boys Nose Out Victory
Over Aurora

BY score of 20 to % the Ely
seven-time victorious High School
basketball team pulled out a victory
after hard tuss1e with the Aurora
High School team. The game was
not as hard fought as the Chisholm
Ely game but was far more inter-
esting to the spectators. The
crowd was almost too large to be
comfortable and it is to be regret
ted that when the Lincoln gym
nasium was built, there could not
have been provisions made for
spectators.
The preliminary game was a
neat exhibition between the fresh
men from the High School and the
Grades team. The freshmen did
not have look in during the game
while the grade boys secured IL.
There will be no more games for
the season on the home floor. the
balance of the schedule to be play
ed away from home.
The High School team goes to
Chisholm tonight where they play
the return game with the Chisholm
boys who put up such a whirlwind
exhibition in this city some time
ago. 1t is to be hoped that the
Ely boys keep up their victorious
gait. Tomorrow night the team
plays at Gilbert.

POLITICAL POT
Fire Kind|ed Under the Soup Last
Evening

By request of the Ely Business
Mems Association, the association
members and other citizens came
together at the City Hall last even
ing for an informal talk on local
politics. The hall was we'll filled
and considerable enthusiasm was
shown.
1t was decided on motion that
the business men of Ely put up a
ticket and use all honest endeavors
to have the same elected. Some
discussion was had on the mode of
nominating the ticket and it was
finally decided to leave it to a COM
mite to name ticket and present
the same at another meeting next
Thursday evening. The chair was
to appoint FIVE members of the
committee and the five named were
to appoint four more making a
committee of nine.
The chair appointed Jas. Moonan,
P. 7. Brownell, Geo. L. Brozich,
Peter Schaefer and w. A. Nc
Curdy. This committee met later
in the evening and named John
Porthan, I. G. Cox, A. S. lanes
and Louis Larson. These nine
men are supposed to get together
before Thursday and build up
ticket to be put before the meeting
next week.
There has been considerable dis
satisfaction over the way things
have been conducted in some
branches of the city government
for some time and it is in the hopes
of remedying some evils that the
meeting was called. 1t was fgur-
ed that, as we have one of the best
cities in the northwest, that we
also should have the best that could
be secured in the official positions.
For the past several years there
has been too much lethargy shown
in local political matters in Ely
and in consequence it has been
somewhat haphazard. AT least
this is the feeling that prevails.
The ticket will be given to the
meeting next Thursday night and
1t is up to the citizens to be there
and either ratify the choice or kill

done but come up to the meeting

has been shipped to the Kloman
Mine in Michigan to be tested by
the so-called Jones-Step Furnace
Process, but this furnace is not in
operation, as yet. If this or some
other process should prove a sue
cess, that is, whereby this mixed
ore can be treated to profit, it
would more than double the value
of our holdings, exclusive of the
high grade ore, as we have very
large body of this ore that cae be
mined at a very low cost.
This property is on the Soudan
formation of the famous Vermilion
Range from which range the great
est amount of high grade ore is
shipped.
The stockholders can well feel
proud on account of the excellent
location of their property.
I'VE are now corresponding with

leasing this property on royalty.
This matter was fully discussed by
the stockholders present at the an
nual meeting and all were un-
animously in favor of that. All
agreed that if a satisfactory lease

of disseminating the same and
turning the institution into a tuber-

We would most heartily suggest
that it be turned into a tubercul-

could be given, it would bring re-
suits sooner, and expenses on this
property would Their cease.
Heretofore, money received
from the Mesaba mine was expend-
ed to operate this property, but in
leasing it, we could certainly
declare a dividend after this
seasons shipments.
The Euclid Mining company's
lease on our Chisholm property ter
minated on July 1st, 1912. Owing
to the low prices for ore in 1912,
the sub-1esses wanted to have the
royalty reduced, but, as stated in
a previous report, the royalty was
only netting our company Is cents
per ton and we were satisfied that
we could mine it ourselves at a
larger profit. We at once got
busy, bought machinery and re-
fitted the mine and have shipped
this season Is ,O76 tons of ore. ~
I'VE also had the minimum out
put reduced from $4,000 to $4,000
tons a year. Stockpiling and de-
veloping is now progressing and
will continue all winter.
The demand for ore is good
this year and preparations are being
made to ship heavily the coming
season.
Your directors are much pleased
at having received back the lease
from A. B. Coates & Associates,
of the Euclid Mining Co. AS the
ore prices have advanced, excellent
results may be expected and as our
lease covers 176 acres, we are in
hopes of finding more ore with our
present explorations.
This company conducts its
, mining operations as economically
as possible and the cost of our min
ing is less than the cost of most
other mining companies, as very
little water has to be pumped out,
the lake being extremely low at
present.
1--WE made a contract in August
last with the Zenith Furnace CON-
pany for 500 tons of coal on which
saving of SIS cents per ton was
made and this supply will last US
until the season opens.
Il wish to make a general report.
that our company is developing its
ore bodies just as fast as is possible
in mine development and there can
be no question or doubt but what
every expectation of the stock
holders will be more than fulfilled
when the development work is
completed.

invited to inspect our mines and in
so doing, it will give a clearer idea

The annual report of President
Labrec to the stockholders Of the
White Iron Lake Iron Mining
Company makes excellent reading.
This concern is constantly work
ing, doing much, and claiming
modest results.
The report is as follows:
II beg to submit the following
report: AS to our Vermilion
Range property at Ely. the last
annual report stated that we had
discovered vein of high grade ore
near the surface. To determine
the width of this formation, we put
down diamond drill hole. A hole
was put down IFS feet South at an
angle of IS degrees and it was with
great pleasure that, at depth OF
800 feet, we encountered vein IS
feet wide. But. owing to the great
cost of diamond drilling, this hole
was abandoned at depth of $50
feet. although. no doubt, if we had
continued to a greater depth, we
would have struck more ore, as the
other drill holes had proven it.
The quantity and quality of the
ore warranted the sinking of shaft,
so preparations were made at once
to start three-compartment min
ing shaft which is, at the present
time. 81 feet deep.
AT depth of IS feet. drift of
rs feet was run which proved that
the vein was widening out with
depth.
Our intention is, to drift into
the ore when the shaft reaches a
depth of ESQ feet.
Owing to the need of new
machinery and the taking ever of
our mine on the Mesaba, formerly
operated by the Euclid Mining COM
pany, work has not been rushed on
this property. With the drilling,
sinking and a great deal of test
pitting, which uncovered some
more ore on our South formation,
said work was necessary in order to
determine location for our new
engine house, so it would not be

Hurt at the Zenith

John Korsich an employee of the
Zenith mine fell down a chute
Monday distance of 80 feet. He
was severely injured and was taken
to the Shipman Hospital where he
is doing well. The First Aid team
took him in charge after the injury
and made him as comfortable as
possible before he was taken to the
hospital.

Suing for Damages

Victor Gustafson has entered
suit ag ainst the Ely Finnish Stock
Company for 500 damages.
Gustafson says he closed contract
with the First State bank of Ely to
move a house for $285. He got
the house up on trucks and made
ready to haul it away when the de-
PENDANT company sent its agents
into the building and removed
certain partitions, which made the
house collapse. Gustafson claims
he not onlv lost S2S5 for his COM
pensation in moving but the value
of the house.
