WARDNER, Jan. 1.--(SpeciaD-- 1.-THE
Tyler lease here Is again working full
handed, about 80 men being employed
Considerable trouble was experienced
the past month in hauling the ore OIL
the mountain on account of the con-
dition of the roads. but now sleighs
are being used.
In the upper end of town eight men
are employed on the hand jigs, maxi
/ ing on an average of four tons Of ore
a day. which runs from 60 to SIS per
cent lead. From the mine about 10
tons of first class ore are shipped each
| day. large amount Of ore Is being
hauled down and dumped near the
jigs which will later be crushed so
that the hand jigs can handle the
rock. The leasers are planning on in
stalling crusher in the spring.
A. p. McRae of Mullan has the con-
tract for all the ore hauling and has
four 4-horse teams steadily employed.
1t Is the intention Of the leasers to put
In an aerial tram in the spring from
the Tyler dump down to the hand Jig
plant and this will increase their out
put materially.
Lease Runs Two Years More.
The Tyler Is portion of the Bunker
Hill and Sullivan companys holdings
and the lease Isl for period Of three
years Two years of the lease stil'
remain The lease is regarded as the

the four leasers year ago there was
little ore in sight. Only few shifts

Mcbride is the manager of the lease.
The TYLER is the claim that became
famous wears ago through litigation
with the Last Chance. The latter fin.

Minnesota forest reserve or the Su-
perior reserve except in winter, but
! can fully appreciate the wonder
full attraction which they must have
for summer visitors seeking the

Riley.
1 judge that the percentage of
land suitable for agriculture in the
Superior reserve, which is also a
game preserve, will be found to be
small. Even after the timber that
may be removed under the law is
gone it will still be forest and af-
ford the game plenty of shelter
and conditions such as the animals
are accustomed to. imagine that
the game, in the course of time,
will come to know that it is afford
ed protection within certain limits,
the same as the wild animals that
roam over the Yellowstone Park
do and appear quite unconscious of
the presence of men,"

complaint in district court against

$2O,416 alleged to be due for SER
vices rendered from Nov. l, 1902 to
Dec. 81, 1907.
The complaint ayers that said
services are worth $500 a year
from Nov. l, 1902, to Jan. l, 1905,
and 5000 year from 1905 to
1907. The claim was disallowed
at the time the will of Sheridan was
admitted to probate.
Miller's suit is based on trips he
made with Sheridan through the
republic of Mexico on exploration
tours and the understanding that
he was to receive a share in the
profits resulting from such trips.
Miller is we'll known in this city
having been here with Mr.. Sheridan

Only One District

One of the last official acts OF
President Taft Monday was to send
to congress an order providing for
one customs district at the head of
the lakes. The order eliminates
the possibility of Duluth becoming
the SUPPORT of any other district.
1t was distinct victory for Repre-
sentative Miller. who has been
actively engaged in presenting to
congress and the president the
paramount necessity of keeping
Duluth in a district where it would
be the headquarters.
The order provides that the dis
trict of Duluth and Superior shall
include all that part of the state OF
Minnesota except Kittson county
lying north of the 46th degree OF
north ATTITUDES, and the Isle Royale
in the state of Michigan, with dis
trict headquarters at Duluth and
Superior.
The ports of entry will be Duluth
and Superior, International Falls,
Rainier, Two Harbors, Ashland
and Isle Royale. The port of Du-
luth and Superior shall include
both these cities and West Superior
Under the reorganization each
customs district will have a col
lector of customs. All ports, even
the headquarters of collectors, will
be directly in charge of a deputy
collector. The terms ports on de-
livery and supports of entry will be
abolished, and all SUPPORTS which
will be retained will be made ports
of entry.
The new plan terminates the his,
toric privilege given collectors al
certain ports, especially along the
Canadian border, to sell manifest:
and receive other emoluments, the
proceeds from which, in many in
stances, far exceed their salaries
Collectors will receive only salaries

TICKET NAMED
ELY Business Mems Association
Name Ticket and Resolve.

The meeting of the Business
Mems Association last evening for
the purpose of naming candidates
for the election was jolly affair
and participated in by a consider
able attendance. The committee
appointed at the last meeting had
prepared ticket in full for the
consideration of the association
and there was considerable expec-
fancy as to who was on the ballot.
Everyone, whether they were men,
bers of the association or not were
made welcome and the hall was
filled to the doors
At the opening of the meeting,
a resolution was presented and car
ried unanimously, which will put
the association OH record in regard
to the moral uplift of the city and
especially towards the eradication
of the blind pig" evil which is
recognized as a serious menance to
the business institutions of the
city. The resolutions adopted
were as follows:
The Ely miner. [volume] (Ely, Minn.) 1895-1986, 1913-03-07

parchment proceedings against
said officers and with the assistance
of the federal, state and county
authorities take such steps to stop
the illicit sales of Intoxicating
liquors in places other than in
licensed saloons, and to have other
state and city laws enforced.
The committee named at the last
meeting to devise some means OF
stimulating attendance at the meet
ings of the association and take
other steps to secure membership
and make the association more Sue
cessful, put in a report that hit the
spot and the recommendations will
be carried out in the near future.
The committee also recommended
the changing of the name to some
thing more attractive claiming the
name, Business Mems Associa-
ton" is too exclusive.
The nominating committee
through its chairman then present
ed the ballot prepared by them and
in explanation stated the committee
had used due care and diligence in
securing what they thought was
the strongest men and the best
ticket, The report was majority
report, the minority not presenting
report.
A motion was then made and
carried to the effect that the associ-
alton invite the citizen visitors to
participate in the discussion and
the balloting. A motion to ballot
on the names separately was car
ried.
Capt. Trezona who was the nom
inee for mayor, here declined the
honor with the statement that he
did not think it fair to go into two
secret elections. A discussion fol
lowed and it was voted that the
office of mayor be taken from the
list and not subjected to a ballot.
A motion was made which NOM
mated Capt. Trezona by open vote
unanimously and with much en-
thusiasm.
In thanking the meeting for the
honor conferred, Mr.. Trezona made
brief address. stating he was
proud to be nominated mayor OF
one of the best cities in the north
west and that if he was elected he
would fulfill the duties of the Office
without fear or favor and that
while he was mayor he would en-
force the laws in the same spirit.
His remarks were plain and we'll
spoken and met with favor.
The balance of the ticket was
then named as follows:

QUITE ROTTEN
State Game and Fish Commission
So Labeled

The public accounts and expendi-
lures committeeman have declared
privately that the fish and game
department was so rotten" as
they put it, and so thoroughly
honeycombed with politics, that
adjournment day should not come
without some kind of legislation
which would root out some of the
evils which no one connected with
the department has thus far at
tempted to deny or even excuse.
H. A. Rider, the member of the
commission who is executive agent
and head of the department on a
salary, made such a showing when
testifying that the committeeman
were satis6d they had gained
enough to condemn the department
on his testimony without going any
further.
When veterinary surgeons, store
keepers and land dealers are draw
ing cash monthly from the state
for protecting fish and game,
when as matter of fact they do
nothing in relation to the business
of the state except draw their
money, the committeeman think it
high time something drastic was
put on the statute books.
AS has been before stated in the
papers, one of the game wardens
has been lobbying openly on behalf
of bill which would permit the
slaughter of certain birds between
the first and seventh of September
of each year, for during that week
they have not strength enough to
get away"
1t has also been shown that the
state has no real check" on fish
ing operations. the profits of which
are enormous. If a warden is de-
tailed to watch" he takes his
$3.50 day wage" from the fish
ing company and is blind. The
fishing companies make any report
or return" they please to the
state fish and game department and
there is no thought of questioning
it. To do that would jar some poll
teal rooster and that would not be
countenanced.
Seized property is disposed of at
private sale" usually by Execu-
tive Agent Rider. He testified that
better prices could be obtained very
often than at public auction.
Wardens make weekly reports of
their work, according to Rider.
He admitted there was no way of
knowing whether the work as set
forth in the report had really been
performed, except in the few in
stances where there had been court
proceedings which permitted re-
cord.
It is a fact that every political
heller in the fish and game depart
ment who is supposed to have any
friends in the legislature stands
ready, if need be, to call on such
friends to save the fish and game
department from a much needed
purging and reorganization. AS a
matter of fact, the committee on
public accounts and expenditures
is remarkably free from entangling
alliance. 1t it hampered by one
thing-lack of time. 1t has already
discovered enough leaks, to use a
charitable term, to justify the ap-
pointment of subcommittee of its
membership to sit throughout the
balance of the year and into a part
of 1914 if necessary in order delve
deep into every department, so that
when the legislature meets again a
report can be made of true condi-
tons with the prospects of having
things remedied.
