POLITICAL PRAYER MEETINGS

II is a sad day for Christianity when
the church bells call the communicates
together for political prayer meet
ing. Such gatherings mark the high
tide of religious political fanaticism,
put bitterness into the lives of men;
fan the flames of class hatred and de-
stroy Christian influence in the com.

meetings is anarchistic, un-Christlike
and dangerous to both church and

tative Anderson made the claim that
practically every county in the south
ern part of the state wants it wiped
off the statute books. While there
are many members of both the house
and senate who are against the
measure, still it has quite number
of staunch hackers.
Former Governor Eberhart's eff
cheney and economy bill had the spot
light last week when Representative
Spooner of Morris, who is preparing
to father the measure, secured the
passage of his resolution calling for
the appointment of a joint committee
of fifteen to consider it and hold pub
lie meetings for the benefit of those
who desired to speak for or against
it. Consideration of the resolution
elected considerable debate which in
dicated that the bill, If it does come
to vote, will not have the smoothest
sailing in the world. The trouble with
the measure is that it is little known
and this fact has started a movement
in the senate to have it laid over for
study during the recess.

Word comes from Washington that
the federal government has ordered

of the order and this is taken by

is for the purpose of discouraging
similar probes by the North Dakota

No session of the legislature would

one or two theater owners and they

holders. All efforts to regulate have
been successfully sidetracked and it

be the case this time.

BIG PENSIONS
Steel Corporation DisbuTses Large
Sum Since 1911

States Steel corporation Denentteu
to the extent of more than 81, ,5OO,-
900 since January, 1911, according
to the fourth annual report of the
pension fund, made public today.
The iron ore region, which in
cludes all mines operated by the
Oliver Iron Mining company, bene-
fitted to the extent of $21, ,330.67.
This includes the Duluth, Missabe
& Northern railway and the Du-
luth & Iron Range railroad, which
received S59O.6O and $500. 10
respectively.
In 1911 an aggregate of $751;
457 81 was distributed; in 1912 it
was $3.50, 1902; in 1913 the fund
amounted to $422,S15.14, and in
1914 the total was SSH, ,967 80.
These figures show an increase of
about 5000 for the years 1912
and 1913 and 500, 900 for the year
1914.
There now are more than 1000
former employees on the pension
roll, with an average pension, for
those added in 1914, of $2O40 per
month; an average service of 28.76
years, and an average age of 63.33
years.
The basis of this pension fund
was $4,000. 900 from the Carnegie
relief fund, to which the Steel
corporation has added $S,O00,O0O,
making a joint fund of $4,000, :
600. Operations were commenced
on Jan. 1, 1911. The fund applies
to all who were in the service of
the United States Steel corporation,
or any company owned or controll-
ed by it, on the above date or
thereafter.
Pensions are computed as
follows: For each year of service
the employe receives 1 per cent of
his average monthly pay during
the last ten years of service.
All male employees who have
been in the service twenty years or
longer and are 90 years or more of
age are eligible to a pension.
Women are eligible at the age of
SO years. More than 70 per cent
of those now on the pension rolls
voluntarily requested to be pension
ed.
Early in 1913 the permanent
disability rule was amended so that
any employe, age not considered,
who has been in the service fifteen
years and who has become abso-
lutely unable to earn a livelihood,
through no fault of his or hers,
as result of sickness or injuries
sustained while on duty, is taken
care of by the voluntary accident
relief plan.
The distribution of the fund re-
ceived by the various properties
oyerateb by the Oliver Iron Mining
company in the Ely district and
the Duluth & Iron Range is as
follows:
Pioneer mine 1895
Soudan mine 1858

The front veranda is too wide for
the roof SO that an awning supported

This arrangement permits OF rolling
the awning up and back under the
caves when not required as protec-

brackets are blacksmith-made and are
rounded outward with hooks at the
bottom to catch the curtain pole The
width OF the awning and the length
of the curtain brackets are measured
to correspond so the curtain pole is
