We read that the legislative hall
has been fumigated TO destroy the

some other microbes which have been
apparently lurking around might be
destroyed without danger to the

PROF. SWIFT LECTURES
AT HIGH SCHOOL BUILDING

Prof. F. H. Swift of the extension
department of the University of Min
nesota on a tour of the Mesaba range
investigating conditions with regard
to the social center movement in the
schools delivered an interesting lecture
at the high school yesterday in which
he urged the club women of Virginia
to work for state censorship of NOV
ing pictures and suggestive songs. He
opposed local boards of censors such
as are now being advocated in some
range towns, particularly at Hibbing.
Mr.. Swift also indicated he was not in
favor of members of the University of
Minnesota Dramatic club receiving
pay while on the road. His audience
yesterday was made up for the most
part of teachers in the Virginia
schools, while many parents availed
themselves of the opportunity present
ed to hear him speak. Comparing the
schools of the United States with
those of European countries he de-
clared the latter were the better
systematized.

INTERESTED IN THE +. -:
ELECTION AT>CLOQUET

- Virginia people VINO were formerly
residents of Cloquet took much inter-
est this week in the election in that
city which resulted in the town going
dry by majority of 113 votes after
one of the most intense and exciting
municipal campaigns in its history.
The issue was not in the candidates
but on the license question. The no.
license people polled sos votes to 1872
for the license faction. The no-license
faction carried every ward in the city.
Cloquet's saloons have been located on
an island in the river isolated from the
business district of the city. The
general prediction had been that the
town would go "wet" by small ma
iority. The saloons will be closed as
soon as their license terms expire. 1t
will be some time yet before the last
one is out of business. Many of the
employees of the Virginia & Rainy
Lake company here were former resi-
dents of Cloquet.

CIGAR STORES DO NOT
SEEK A COMPROMISE

Proprietors of local cigar stores
yesterday expressed regret that pub
licity had been given a story to the
effect that they were willing to close
their places located in the front of
saloons on Sundays and after IL
o'clock. 1--WE are not looking for any
thing more than our rights said one
dealer yesterday. can see no reason
whv we should not be allowed to run
our stores on Sunday just as any other
cigar store, so long as we comply
with the state law giving a fair view
of the bar-rooms."
In other quarters it was freely
stated about the city that the agita'
ton regarding the cigar stores IN
saloon fronts was the outcome OF the
personal animosity of one member Of
the police and fire commission, who
| is alleged to be unduly officious ano
|!,omewhat disgruntled over certain re-
k cent developments.

:B0YLAN IS OUT
FOR MAY0RALTY
Authorizes Announcement of Candi
dacy Today and Will Promulgate
Platform Soon.

Michael Boylan for six years a
member of the Virginia council and
for the past two years president of
that organization is an avowed candi-
date for mayor of Virginia at the an
nual election early in February. MIR.
Boyland today personally authorized
formal announcement of his candidacy.
1T is pretty early yet to talk city
politics." said Mr.. Boylan this morn
ing, "but l am a candidate for mayor.
l shall have a platform ready to SUBJ
NIT to the people in a short time. /
am not prepared at present to an
nounce it until such time as l have
had opportunity to study more care
fully certain questions of much in
terest to the people here on which /
am not at present as we'll informed as
l desire to be. =.
~ am going to conduct a clean,
straightforward campaign, free from
personalities. So far as l am con-
cerned it's only issue with me will be
the welfare of Virginia and business
like and progressive administration of
it's affairs.
Mr.. Boylan has been resident of
Virginia for nine years. He is prac-
teal plumber, ran the first union shop
on the range, and has built up fine
business in this city. In civic affairs
he has always taken pronounced in
terest. His record on the city council
has been creditable and few people
are better familiar with the business
of the city of Virginia and the prac-
teal problems it presents than is Mr..
Boylan. Public spirited to high
degree he has spent literally of his
time and money to further the inter-
ests of the city, along all lines. His
personal following is large with all
elements and he has perhaps as wide
an acquaintance as any man in Vir-
ginia.
Mr.. Boylan was the first advocate ct
municipal Fairgrounds in Virginia. 1t
is known that he favors municipal
gas plant and as member Of the city
council his attitude has always been
liberal in the matter of public inn
provements. He will be his own cam
paign manager and will have large
following from the beginning.
Speaking of the conduct of the mu-
nicipal electric light and water plant
Mr.. Boylan said: II am in favor OF
giving to the people of Virginia from
the municipal light and water plant
lighting and water service at the
lowest rate consistent with good bust
ness. l believe there can be safely
made: considerable reduction from
the rates now in effect.

PROGRESSIVE LEAGUE ON RECORD
FAVORlNGREDUCTION OF RATES
Resolution Passed After Considerable Debate Asking That
Charge for Electric Light from Municipal Plant be Cents
Per Kilowatt With Minimum Rate of so Cents. e..

In a resolution passed at meeting
held at the city hall Thursday night,
following considerable debate, the
Progressive League Of Virginia went
on record in a resolution favoring an
immediate reduction in the rate Of
electric lighting service in the city of
Virginia from the municipal electric
light plant to cents per kilowatt
and a minimum charge of SO cents.
The minimum rate is now 81 and The
kilowatt rate will average much higher
than the figure of 6 cents named in
the resolution of the club.
The Progressive league will have
another meeting Nov. 20 when the
matter will be further gone into and
when the local political situation will
5e considered and endorsements will
no doubt be handed to candidates for
the mayoralty and places on the
council.
The reduction in lighting rates was
warmly debated. Alderman McGhee
opposed the lowering of the lighting
rate, on the theory that the water
and light commission had not yet
had sufficient time to get its bearings
and that it should be allowed reason
able time to get things running
smoothly.
Alderman Conrad Mattson, Judge
R. J. Montague, Carl Johnson and

ton finally adopted and each made

STABBING ARRAY IN
WOODS TOWN SALOON

Reports of a stabbing affray involv-

seriously wounded reached Virginia
from Ray yesterday. Details are
meagre, but the story is that the con-
dition of the man stabbed was serious.
A foreigner was picked up by The
Virginia police today and held for the
Ray authorities, charged with being
implicated in the affair. Liquor
seems to have caused all the trouble.
