Charging that the administration Of

not followed the principles of hu

the European war began, and deplor
ing the alleged action of the presi
dent in dealing with foreign ques
tions without consulting the commit

Societies at st. Paul favoring a spe

The administration is charged with
failure to act in accordance with its
proclamation of neutrality and with
uDintentional inconsistency. The hope
is expressed that "the demands of
citizens who expect the same impair.

TO COLLECT BACK TAXES
Mayor Of Hibbing Threatens to Close
All Iron Mines in That City and
Seize Ore on Duluth Docks.

Mayor Victor L. Power of Hibbine
unless the eleven mining companies
operating properties at Hibbing &C
cede to the demands of that village
and pay the tax money that Is tied uI
he not only will tie up all the mines
in the Hibbing district, but also will
and will prosecute the officials of the
companies involved for criminal prac
tees.
"The mining companies are max
ing losing fight" he declared, "and
nobody knows it better than their Off
cials do. They are simply whistline
to keep up their courage. The remedy
which Hibbing has prescribed for ouI
tax ills may be slow, but it Is certain
to bring about a healthier condition
not only for our village but for the
county and state.
"The ore in the mines at Hibbing
as well as the ore in the docks al
Duluth, will be attached and tied up
until the taxes are paid. This will
mean the laying off of all crews in
the Hibbing district and the tying up
OF many big freighters on the lakes.
"As to the criminal phase of the
matter l will go before the grand jury
that meets at Virginia on Aug. %
and present evidence that may cause
the arrest of all of the mining Off.
cials involved on charges of gross
misdemeanor. Conviction on this
charge is punishable by fine of ST..
600 or one year in the state peniten'
tiary.
Those Hibbing business men who
were frightened at first have now
come back into the fold and are ready
to help me fight this thing out. They
are taking the village warrants and
we hear no more of hard times in the
village. I am going through to the
end and / will show the mining COM
panies that their long reign of terror
is over on the Mesaba range, at least"
