BASE BALL
Season Opened in this Part OF the
Country Last Sunday

The Miner was correct last week
when. it prophecied the defeat of
the Two Harbors team by Winton
in the first game which took place
at Winton Sunday afternoon. The
baseball season was formally open
ed on that day in this neck O. the
woods.
Mayor Stein of Winton threw the
first ball and to the credit of the
mayor it must be said he is some
thrower as the first batter up failed
to touch his most artistic shoot.
The game was we'll played consid-
ering the fact that it had been the
first time the Winton boys had
been under fire. The batteries for
Winton were Bradley and Lambert.
The Two Harbors battery was
Griffin, Roberts and Mcdonald.
The score by innings was as
follows:
Two Harbors-2 O / 1000--5
Winton----O 2OOO3 2Ox--7
Advertising matter has been cir
culated announcing a game next
Sunday between Ely and Winton
on the Ely grounds. This will be
the first game of the season be-
tween these strong rivals and will
in all probability prove interesting.
The baseball situation in this city
is not exactly in its prime and it is
hoped that next Sundays game
will create enthusiasm and cause
the organization of a good team.
The batteries for Sundays game
will beiSeraphine and Skala for Ely;
Bradley and Lambert for Winton.
Everybody be there.

ing of the delegates of the various
departments to participate in the
tournament here in July was held

change Hotel at which were pre-
sent also several members of the
city council including Mayor Harri

ness men.

this would prove one of the best
tournaments ever held by the as
sociation anywhere. This assur-
ance in addition to the Home Com
ing arranged promises gala time

this number, of the capacity en-
ployed, being necessary to take
care of the water of the mine. AS
openings were extended addition
al pumps were dropped down the
shaft and put into position. And
now all these pumps are being
taken out. And when the last
pump has been disconnected and
sent to daylight, it is stated that
the mine will fill up, in an hour and
a half, so abundant is the water of
the surrounding sandstone forma-
tion.
There will be no opportunity for
the grangers of that section to make
anything by putting tonnage tax
on the Baraboo ore deposits. If
they could have taxed the water
that has been pumped from the
shafts to surface they could have
paid their state debt, based on the
way the farmers tax things belong
ing to the other fellow.
1t isn't all. profit, this mining
game. Much money was spent in
putting down these shafts in the
Baraboo field and equipping them
with pumping engines and other
machinery. There was no money
made in that field and it probably
will be long time before anything
will be done in iron ore mining in
that section. .-Ishpeming Iron Ore.

FIGHT STARTED
Finnish Residents Begin an Anti
Socialist Crusade

Smart1ng with the stigma placed
upon the Finnish citizens by the
bunch of young Socialistic Firms
which have during the past two
years infested the city and other
cities, the older members of this
nationality in Ely have banded
themselves together for mutual
protection and to curb the Social
istic tendencies. The Firms of the
copper country of Michigan organ
lied some time ago and the Mime
sofa ranges are following suit.
Meetings are being regularly
held and Socialism denounced in
no uncertain terms. There are a
large portion of this nationality
who appreciate the advantages of
America as compared with their
native country and are willing to
live among us, raise their families
as good citizens and help keep the
country on firm and sound basis
for the benefit of the working
people of their nationality as we'll
as other nationalities. The influx
of the Younger and radical element
of their native land has somewhat
disrupted the harmonic conditions
and the lawless acts and seditious,
anarchistic tendencies have work
ed harm to the Finnish citizens. It
has come to such a pass that in
some places man claiming to be a
Finn is denied work under any
condition.
The organization here is not as
yet on firm footing but is rapidly
being brought into shape for effec-
tive work. Another meeting will
be held in few days and the or
ganization perfected by the election
ST officers and the adoption of set
of bylaws.
The reg flag has no place in this
country and the sooner it and its
diciples are rooted out, the better
it will be.
A movement is also on foot to
root out the Slavonic red faggers
and they will probably get theirs in
a short time. These are harder to
get at as they are not making as
much noise as they did several
weeks ago.

the entertainment arranged in
honor of the distinguished Phila-
delphian should bring together the
most important men in the state,

Eberhart, ]. ]. Hill, ]. M. Hanna
ford, A. Pennington, 7. B. Walker

that it should invite him to come

Circular Gives Forest Facts

Striking facts regarding our for
est resources, their value and their
waste, are condensed in an eight
page illustrated circular of the
American forestry association just
issued. The lumber industry is
said to employ 735, 900 people, to
whom are paid annually 1867 ,OOO,-
900 in wages, the worth of pro-
ducts being 81 ,25O,OOO,OO The
forests cover $50, 100000 acres.
An average of 70 human lives
are sacrificed annually in forest
fires, says the circular, end a loss
occurs of $25, 200, 900. Damage
from insects and tree diseases,
which follow fire, costs each year
$50, 900, 900. The cost of destruc-
tion resulting from floods is not
estimated, but is given as count
less millions.
But the circular expresses hope
more than pessimism. AS well as
the colored pictures showing the
forest fire, the effects of the fire,
and damage caused by floods, il
shows also forests planted and
grown under the intensive manage
ment. and the national forest
ranger scouting for fires on the
mountain lookout station. The
effective patrol referred to has re-
duced forest fire losses to as low
as one-tenth of one cent an acre"
1t is pointed out that by planting
forests an annual income could be
derived in the county of SOS ,OOO,-
600 dollars; and by preservative
treatment upon timber each year
500, ,000,0 600 could be saved.

Back to Ohio

Frank Oblak secured a jag one
day last week and during his ex-
huberance informed the police who
had picked him up for drunkenness
that he had fooled the officers at
the Mansfield, Ohio, reformatory
where he was under parole and had
skipped 27 months ago and the Of
fcers had failed to find him. An
officer arrived from the institution
and Oblak returned with him to
serve the unexpired portion of his
sentence.

Mrs. Odric LeClair of Two Har-
bors, who will be remembered by a
large circle of friends in Ely and
Winton as Miss Charlotte Delaney
teacher at the Point school several
years ago has announced herself a
non-partisan candidate for the
office of county superintendent of
schools of Lake County.
Mrs. LeClair is we'll fitted for
this position having had five years

Fires Threaten

Monday. a forest fire started
from burning brush, was checked
by the section crew and a crew of
men sent out by Mayor Harri about
mile west of the city. Some fell
low clearing land, let the fire get
away from him and it was rapidly
making its way to the land known
as Crossman's Point. The rain of
the same evening did most effec-
tual work in the fighting of the
flames that threatened the city

and houses.

discovered by Thos, Harri, he pull
with two revolvers a watch and

to shoot. The boy was taken to
Red Wing yesterday to enter the
reformatory. The parents have

friends in their troubles. 1t is to
be hoped that the institution will
prove of benefit to the young man.

"A GENERAL CLEANUP FIGHT TO
BE STARTED AND AL SHOULD
JOIN IN.

The ladies OF the Brunswick Civic
Association, who are now making such
a determined effort to maze Bruins
wici. beautiful" and who, to GER
tain extent, are succeeding, have now
started a campaign for clean front
yards and clean back yards, as well
as for clean steets, and there are
so many ways that the people of the
city generiRF can assist the ladies in
their excellent work without incon-
yeniences to themselves in theslight-
est.
As is well known, this is the sea
son of the year when everybody
should "clean up" and for that reas-
on the ladies are making every effort
to get the people of the city general
ly interested in an effort to make
Brunswick the cleanest city in the
state.
How often do you throw a piece Of
paper into the streets?
How often do you take a look IN
your yards to see II it needs coed
cleaning?
How many times do you toss an
empty cigarette box, an old paper
sack, or an old piece of newspaper in
to the streets?
Probably every day, and still this
practice is just what the Civic Asso
citation is fighting against.
The ladies are urging the people
of the city generally to assist them
in their efforts to keep the city clean
and 1t is to be hoped that hereafter
every person In the city will render
all the aid possible.

EATING VEN|SON

PEOPLE AROUND STERLING EN-.
JOY SELECT CUTS OF A DOE,
AT THAT.

u. people arou1J sterling, just .eE
miles from brunsw,fk. have been sat
ing yenison for the past few days, al
though the game laws of Georgia
make it unlawful to kill deer after
January first. They have, further
than that, been eating select cuts of
doe at that, while the game laws OF
the state make it unlawful to kill
them at any season OF the year.
Still none of those who have parti-
cipated in the feast have violated the
laws, and of course no thought of
prosecution has entered the minds of
the county officials.
The doe was killed all right, but it
was suicide, pure and simple, and the
act was Witnessed by number of
people at Sterling, including Charlton
Wright, who has enjoyed much of the
venison.
1t has not been an uncommon thing
to see deer around Sterling here of
late. They would come right out In
the open and have been seen to cross
the railroad track not two hundred
yards from Mr.. Wright's store. A few
days ago two deer were seen cross

into a wire fence at full force, almost
