DECORATION DAY.

-HIS is Decoration Day, day that
 has been dedicated by law in
 some States and by common consent everywhere that Americans live to those who have served in the army or navy of the Nation and who have passed from this vale of tears in- to the great Eternity, However. gen erally speaking, it is associated in the public mind with those who fought to preserve the Union In the Civil War.
 It is meet that on at least one day Of the year business houses should close aud people should consider those who have either given or risked their lives tearlessly for our country. There are few left among the living of the Grand Army established for all time in that court in the affairs of men-the arbitration of arms-that the United States shall remain for all time one and uuSeparable. And it should be the purpose of every citizen today. in ad. dltiou to paying tribute to the dead of the Nation. to make special effort to express in some way his appreciation of the services that have been rem dered by the living remnant of that great army of men who served the Ma ton when it sorely needed their ser, vices.
 It is a pleasant thought today that there is no place in the Nation where the occasion Is not one that is dedicat- ed equally to those Americans who fought on both sides of the great American war.

pose of the new operators is to mine

Following the completion of the

south sides of Chestnut street. Eight

Editor, Pays Him a Fine
Compliment.
From TUESDAYS Dailv.

From Tuesdays Daily.
Mesaba Ore: Harold Griggs, Of
Virginia, has, contrary to the state
ment made by The Ore last week IRE
ceived from what it regarded as an
authentic source), decided to enter
the lists and make the run for the
state senate from the new Virginia
district. His announcement was given
to the newspapers last Saturday, and
he is going to be like man that meant
business.
The interests of the Virginia and
Hibbing senatorial districts are identi-
cal, we are as one people, and what is
good for Virginia is likewise good for
Hibbing. We shall, therefore, take a
lively interest in the campaign, and,
though we had hoped to see a man
of more political experience in the
running, we are nightly pleased that
the Virginia district will have the op-
portunity Of selecting a man of Mr..
Griggs' standing.
He is a young man, just turned
thirty, but he has proven himself a
successful business man, and there
has never come a shadow upon his
reputation. He is keen for the place,
for the reason that he believes that
he can be of some value to the range
country, and he wants to try. His
success in business has already
brought him competency and he can
afford to spend his time in the state
legislature, without fear of being
tempted, or coerced, as has many the
young man who needed the money.
Mr.. Griggs has been a resident of
the Mesaba range for seventeen
years, has studied it's political aspect
and is alive to what the range needs
that it is not getting. He is being
backed by the business element of
Virginia, and promises that if elect
ed he will represent the iron range
country as it should be represented,
and tote fair with everybody.
He hopes to be worthy successor
TO Senator Boyle, and that is a. high
aim for any young man.

Enthusiasm ran high at the Vir-
ginia Technical high school this morn
ing on the return of the basketball
team from it's triumphant trip to Au-
rora last night, when the high school
team of that city was defeated by the
score of % to 10.
The student body congratulated in
the corridors and cheered the players,

ginia helped Hibbing to the undisput-
ed championship of the range. Hib-
bing now is entitled to take the trip
to Carleton college, Mortified to par
ticipate in the contests for the inter-
scholastic basketball championship Of
the state. In contests against Vir-
,inia Hibbing carried off the honors
by scores of 26 to 20, and % to 20.
Virginia played all around Aurora
in every department and showed more
genuine pep" than in any other con-
test this season. Captain Gerlach of
Aurora, seemed to be the target Of
the Virginians and the boy with the
big reputation only obtained three
baskets. Gustafson's close guarding
held him. The basket shooting Of the
Virginians opened the eyes Of the
crowd. They threw several baskets
from the center of the floor. Rooney,
Hodge, Enright and Cusson all did ex-
cellent work. The Virginians were
fast and their team work was a re-
violation.
