U. ,. TROOPS WILL
 REMAIN BELOW LINE
Mexican Ambassador Left Im- pressiOn With Officials He Did Not Expect Defiant Words to Be Taken at Face Value.

Washington, May 31.- General Carranza's latest note bluntly ques- tioning the good faith of the United States government and with a threat Iof armed resistance demanding with drawal of American troops from Mex ico was presented to the state de- 'partment today by Eliseo Arredondo. Tonight a translation of the vol luminous document, about 12,000 words long, was laid before Presi- dent Wilson, who at once began con- sidering an answer. No one in off, cial circles would attempt to forecast what the course would be. There was complete unanimity in the belief that there would be no immediate with drawal of the Pershing expedition.
 High officials said the de facto gov. ernment, so far, had failed utterly to demonstrate it's ability to protect the
 border and expressed the opinion the
 troops would stay in Mexico until this was done. It was suggested that the belligerent and uncompromising tone assumed by Carranza probably was largely for effect on the Mexican pub lie, and there was little disposition to believe the de facto government ac- tually contemplated an effort to expel
 the American army by force.
 MT. Arredondo left the impression that he did not expect the defiant
 words of the communication to be
 taken at their face value, when it was intimated that it was not intended as
 an ultimatum. The new note, written
 before the withdrawal of the Lang
 horne-Sibley expedition, was brought
 to Washington Monday by Manuel
 Mendez, an attache of the Mexican foreign office.
 Word of its coming had been re- ceived, but on the arrival of Mendez he insisted that he knew nothing of the note. Arredondo said last night
 he had heard nothing of the note Today it was explained that Mendez left Mexico City with strict instruc-
 tions to keep his mission secret. His
 orders to give the communication to the ambassador designate for prescn-
 tation to the state department, it was
 said, did not arrive until about mid
 night last night.

CULTIVATING CANTALOUPES

We trust that none of our canta- loupe growers will get discouraged and give up the fight because of the drouth, and We do not believe any of them will. Now is the time to cuti- lvate the soil so as to retain moisture, destroy weeds and grass and keep the young cantaloupe vines growing. Do not stop cultivating because it does not rain, but keep the cultivator going at least once a week, running just deep enough to stir the surface of the soil so as to check evaporation. This will keep the plants growing and when rain does come, the melon vines will make surprisingly rapid growth.
 A moderate amount of dry weather should be welcomed by the farmers at this season of the year, as it gives them good opportunity to thorough ly work out their crops and put them in good condition. A wet May , would very likely prove hurtful to the cantaloupe crop, as we'll as the corn crop, for the reason that the plants would make an abnormally large growth above ground at the ex- pense of roots, and insects and plant diseases would be worse during a wet season than dry one. For best re- suits the cantaloupe plants should make rather slow growth at this season, but should be thoroughly cul- tivated. This condition enables the plant to develop a strong root system and strong sturdy vine, which will give it the power to stand adverse conditions later on in it's life, and possibly at more critical time.
 Our slogan should be Keep the cultivator going" drouth or no drouth. | We are very anxious to see every one engaged in cantaloupe culture, no matter what the size of their patch, make success of the work, and in order to do this, you should never neglect your cantaloupes for any thing else. It is our most important ' crop just now. We are reaching the most important stage in the life of the crop, and neglect at this time will mean decreased profits.

OLD SETTLERS
MEET


President John Owens of the
Vermilion Range Old Settlers As
ISOLATION was in the city Sunday
and presided over a meeting of
officers to formulate preliminary
plans for the holding of the Second
Annual Reunion of the Association
at Tower.
Officers present at the meeting in
addition to Mr.. Owens were Vice
President Thos. Jury, Treasurer
P. T. Brownell, Secretary F. B.
James and Directors Chas. Ire
iona, A. J. Thomas. T. E. Miller
and Grant McMahan.
The official minutes of the
gathering show that the purpose of
the meeting was to settle on the
place of holding the reunion and
the transaction of any other bust
ness in connection with the same.
The president reported on the pro-
posed arrangements of the Tower
members to care for the visitors.
1t was moved and supported that
the directors suggest to the COM
mittee to be appointed by the
president to confer with Tower that
the date of holding the meeting be
on August %, "a and rs. The
motion was carried.
The secretary was instructed on
motion to secure the necessary
printing and also secure 1000
badges of the same design as the
1915 badge but first secure prices
on the badges to be submitted to
the committee.
It was also moved and supported
that the Ely committee take up
with Tower the proposition of
having the last day of the meeting
held in Ely. This motion also
prevailed.
President Owens appointed as a
committee for Ely, Chas. Trezona,
T. E. Miller and F. B. James.
The secretary was instructed to
send out the notices that dues
could be paid on or before the dates
set for the meeting.
The president and officers will
select the committees later. AS
there are many important COM
mittees to be named it will require
considerable study to get the pro-
per material.
Much enthusiasm is being shown
all over the country over the forth
coming reunion. The affair pro-
misses to be one of magnitude as
the membership already numbers
over three hundrd exclusive of
ladies and this year will see large
increase in the membership.

LOOKS GOOD
Impressed With Conditions on
vermiIion Range

John Semer of Escanaba, Mich.
who is large owner of lands on
the Vermilion range, was in Duluth
and on the range for several days
recently. He is one of the fee
owners of lands in the Consolidated
Vermilion and Extension, and
visited that property during his
visit to the range to inspect the
recent ore strike reported on the
Eastern end of the properties.
Mr.. Semer was much pleased with
the prospects, and said to Duluth
associates and others:
T. J. Walsh deserves much
credit. l have just visited the new
ore strike reported by him, and
am free to state that I consider it
important. I am convinced that it
will rank favorably with other i'm
portant ore developments on the
Vermilion. The indications, in
fact, are mighty good that it is one
of the best strikes ever made on
the Vermilion The present show
ing makes it safe, at any rate, in
my estimation, to pronounce this
strike mine.
Mr.. Semer has optioned to Byron
M. Pattison of the South Chandler
lot and the S. w. Il of the S. E..
a of %, 63-12. This area is
nearly an eighty, and adjoins the
South Chandler on the West
The Pattison interests own lot 2,
which adjoins the North Chandler
on the West. The Semer ground
will be explored for iron ore. The
South Chandler is producing stead
lily, and shipping. The same is
true of the North Chandler forty
controlled by the Chandler Iron
Co.
Mr.. Semer also has given option
for lease to Harper and Walbank
the S. w. a of the N. E. ID of 80,
63-12, situated between the John
Anderson mine (Old Range Iron
company and Ely. Privilege is
also granted that Harper & Wal
bank may option the N. w. d of
the N. E. a of the same descrip-
ton, which includes about 20 acres
of plated ground in the edge of
Ely. A drill was put to work
last Monday on the former tract.

"MOOSE IN
MINNESOTA
Fins, Feathers and Fur Has
Article on Moose.
(By L. M. BrownelD


The moose is the largest of the
deer family (alces machlic or palm
atus) and was given this name by
the Algonquin Indians. They are
found on this continent from New
Brunswick to western Alaska
wherever there are unfrequented
forests. They are apparently
migrating northward as the forests
are being exploited and the country
settled.
The adult moose stands about
six feet at the shoulders and may
exceed this figure. The male
bears very broad (palmate) diver
gent antlers. These horns are
sometimes very immense. A pair
in the Field Columbian Museum,
Chicago, has a spread of 1917
inches, show "a points, measure IS
inches round the bur, and, along
with the dry skull, weighs SO
pounds. The antlers form be-
tween them a sort of basin, for
each broadens out in a great
shovel-shaped expansion, with
marginal points or snags, increas-
ing usually with the years of life.
The horns and fore feet are the
principal means of defense. The
general color is dark reddish brown,
but becomes slightly lighter and
grayer in winter. The limbs,
especially the fore legs, are very
long. The neck is small and the
tail small. More detailed charac-
teristics are the broad, hairy
nostrils, the overhanging upper
lip, the small eyes and tear pits,
long and broad ears, low stiff
name on the back of the neck, the
long bell name on the lower side of
the neck and the brittle hair.
They are for the most part
solitary in their habits, except
during the breeding season and
during the winter months. In
winters of deep snow a dozen or
more are often found yarded up
in swamps.
The male animals often fight
with one another. These fights
sometimes last until one or both
are dead. Occasionally the dead
bodies are found with the horns
locked together in such a manner
that they cannot be separated ex-

most part, uninhabited and is
generally unsuited to agriculture.
It is an ideal range for big game,
extending along the Canadian
boundary for 90 miles east and
west through St. Louis. Lake and
Cook counties. and is SO miles
from north to south at its widest
point. It rivals the great national
parks of the Rocky Mountain
region in picturesque beauty and
attractiveness. -Editor.

Note: Moose can now be legally
killed by the licensed hunter only
in Minnesota, Alaska and ten
Canadian Provinces. If moose
hunting is continued in Minnesota
the only barrier to early extermina-
tion in this state is the sanctuary
afforded by the Superior State
Game Refuge, created in 1909 as a
refuge and breeding ground for all
game, particularly for moose. 1t
is therefore of the utmost import
ance that this refuge be thoroughly
patrolled and that illegal killing
therein be entirely eliminated.
The Superior Refuge is. for the
