The Ely miner. [volume] (Ely, Minn.) 1895-1986, 1916-04-21

An examination will be held in
this city on May 10, open to- all
those who have made application
for the position of clerk to be filled
in the Ely postoffice because of the
resignation of Miss Emma Kins-
man who has held the position for
the past six years.
The clerks in the Offices of the
second class in which class is the
Ely Office, will begin with a salary
of $500 a year and are subject to
promotion yearly until their salary
reaches 81 900. Applicants to be
eligible for the examination must
file their applications with the dis
trict secretary in time to get in on
the examinations. Filing blanks
and instructions to applicants can
be secured of Miss Kinsman at the
postoffice who will also conduct
the examination on the date speci-
fed. Applicants will be tested in
spelling, arithmetic, letter writing,
penmanship, copying from plain
copy, and reading addresses.
Markings will be on a system of
points. All papers will be review
ed at Washington.
Miss Ellen Nelson of this city
has made formal application so far
but it is understood that there will
be several others who will take the
examinations.

satisfactory to the people. The
charter which was rejected a year
ago was not the most ideal docu-
ment but was considered a very
good base from which a code of
laws could be evolved by means of
amendments year after year.
Several clauses in the charter as
submitted a year ago were wholly
unsatisfactory to the voters and
while it is almost impossible to
prepare one that would be unani-
mously accepted it is possible to
get up a measure that would meet
with the approval of the majority
Many cities have the same
troubles and are continually amend
ing their charters. However, be-
fore the matter of amending can be
gone into, something must be had
to amend. Our present charter,
a fairly good one in its time, has
outlived its usefulness and especially
since the city has been forging to
the front as one of the most modern
and prosperous in the state. Our
charter today is designed for a
country village and not for city
of the importance of Ely.

NIPPED A few
Meters Nabbed by Warden
HeikkiIa Monday Night.

Several of our citizens evolved a
scheme Monday whereby they were
to deal a hard blow to Our old
friend, High Cost of Living" but
the scheme like many of the we'll
laid plans of mice and men. etc.
Warden Oscar Heikkila got wise
to the scheme and went to the
mouth of Lonstorf creek where the
coup was to be pulled off. He re-
turned with several of the pro-
moters and many feet of netting
and considerable supply of fish.
Tuesday morning in municipal
court, three of the party were fined
$40 and costs amounting in all to
$12 80 and two were assessed 80
each. Those paying the larger
amount were Henry Pietilla, Matt
Ronka and Carl Bjorn while Erick
Nikkinen and John Kuukunen were

Some weeks ago the Commercial
Club made recommendation that
the charter board then in existence
and which had prepared charter
that was turned down by the voters
last year, resign and a committee
was appointed to submit list of
names to the judges of the District
Court from which a new board
could be selected. The old board
resigned as body and the COM
mittee submitted the list of names.
Tuesday Judges Ensign, Dancer,
Cant and Fessler signed an order
naming the following as charter
board for the City of Ely: Olof
Berglund, John M. Brown, Geo.
L. Brozich, Harry A. Chinn, John
A. Dinsmore. A. S. James, Steve
Kovall, Joseph Mantel, John E.
Porthan, Peter Schaefer, Adolph
Schroeder. R. K. Toms, Andrew

AS a new charter for this city is
badly needed it is to be hoped the
new board can get together and
frame up document that will be

let off with the smaller amount.
Three advanced pupils of the High
School caught with the party were
let off with reprimand.
The mouth of Lonstorf Creek
has been thorn in the side of the
wardens for years and it was de-
cided this year to get next to a few
of the METERS that nightly made
this their rendezvous. The result
was the catch of Monday night.
The warden has his eye on several
other parties who are making a
practice of SEEMING the lakes and it
will be no surprise when they are
apprehended. They have had it
coming for some time and few
stiff fines and Jail sentences may
have some effect.
1t seems queer that perfectly able
men will lay themselves open to
the charge of being criminals for
the sake of few pickerel at this
time of the year. The illegal net
ting and dynamiting of the lakes
must be stopped. What we need
here is about a dozen wardens in
'order to keep in touch with all the
lakes that are being made use of by
the netter and the dynamiter.

TAX DODGERS
State Tax Commission Says Il
Will Prosecute.

F. B. James, the newly elected
assessor of this city was in Duluth
a few days this week to listen to
instructions by the state tax COM
mission and also to get the books
from the county auditor to begin
the work of making the spring as
sessment of real and personal prop
erty. All the assessors of the
county were present.
In the course of his remarks to
the assessors, Samuel Lord of the
tax commission made the state
ment that tax dodgers would be
prosecuted. How he intended to
get at this he failed to state. In
his talk Mr.. Lord said:
In nearly every community tax
lodging is resorted to most by peo-
pie who are best able to pay. 1t is
not the citizen of limited means
whose property is all in sight and
easily found by the assessor, who
escapes. Such people as a rule
pay taxes on every dollars worth
of property they have in the world
1t is among people with bullying
pocketbooks where we find our
fragrant tax dodgers.
The tax commission will aid as
SCISSORS by every means in its pow
er to enforce the law against this
class of citizens and when false
statement by taxpayer is called to
our attention we will see that the
matter is placed in the hands of the
county attorney for prosecution.
Much can be done by assessors to
prevent tax lodging if they will
perform their duties fearlessly and
diligently and in strict accordance
with law.
If honest taxpayers could only
be brought to realize that the only

Tuesday authorized another in
