If Office holders in this country
would expend even one-half the
effort in attending to their official
duties that they expended to secure
their position conditions would un-
doubtedly be bettered to consider
able extent. Public officials of the
higher ranks. when it comes to neg
lect of duties, appear to be the worst
offenders. In congress it has been
exceedingly difficult of late to secure
quorum. However, the absentees

dence, when up for reelection, to in
dulge in the usual flights of oratory

From the columns of several of the
iron range newspapers we are led to
believe that there is revolt in the
range towns of St. Louis county
against political domination by the
iron mining companies. fThe mine
owners object to being &taxed for,
what they allege, unnecessary and
expensive public improvements by
the municipalities, and with the end
in view of keeping taxes down to the
minimum aim to control the local
governing bodies. In several in
stances the mining companies have
appealed to the courts to prevent the
inclusion of their real property
within the limits of village and CITY
corporations Naturally enough
those people in the range towns who
are not identified with the mining
corporations object to their political
activities. In view of the unreason-
able antagonistic feeling that exists
in certain quarters of the, state
against the mine owners it would
seem to be good policy on their part
to cultivate the friendship of their
home people. :

the Great Northern were $4,000, 600
less than for the corresponding per-
