Leap Year Hints

Girls, be sure you look before
you leap.
Pick out fat man. They wear
better in the long run, and then,
too, they are easier to land. A fat
man is tender hearted and simply
cannot refuse an offer of marriage.
Never mind the looks. Don 4
wait until you find Greek god.
Grab off homely one while the
grabbing is good. The homely
ones are the ones who bring home
the pork chops.
If you cannot support the young
man in the manner to which he
has been accustomed, be honest
and tell him so. Don't lead him
to expect champagne when you
have only beer income. Never
lie to the young man about your
salary, for when he learns the truth
there is apt to be trouble.
Be sure that your approach is al
that it should be. Everything de.
ponds upon that. When you ask
man to marry you don't go about
it as though you were ordering a
ham sandwich in a armed
restaurant. Be pleasant and polite
about it. Approach him with tao,
and let him find out your true
nature after it is too late for hin,
to back out.

cording to an announcement by
w. T. Cox, state forester. Mr..
Cox has just received word from
the federal government of its CO.
operation in protecting Minnesota S
vast forest area. This fund, he
said, is provided under the terms
of the Weeks Law.
The fund may be considered as
recognition of the satisfactory
organization of the Minnesota
forest service" explained Mr.. Cox,
for it is the maximum amount
received by any state. The ap-
preparations are provided only to
those states having good fire pro-
lection organizations.
Representatives of the govern
in the state cooperative work see
particular significance in the recent
action of the insurance commits
sioner which insurance rates in
Northern Minnesota were ordered
reduced, and they are confident
that the better system of protection
from forest fires has made this re-
duction possible"

SECTION Thirty
Mining Stocks Of this Company
In Demand.

There is some quiet inquiry in
Duluth at this time for Section &c
Mining stock, and no wonder says
Skilling's Mining Letter. The
identity of the scouts indicate that
they represent investors of means,
and men who are accustomed to
make investments for prospective
income rather than for speculative
prospects. The Mining Letter has
called attention to Section 80 at
different times. The capital OF
this company is 100000 shares. of
a par value of $40, and $4,000
shares are issued. The issued
shares are in strong hands. So far
as known, there is none offered in
the market. or even at private sale.
The quiet effort now in progress to
locate some of the stock has raised
the question of about what it is
now held at. One man identified
with investments of various kinds,
and with a wide acquaintance of
men and investments, said:
1t might be possible to locate
some Section 80 at SIS, but 1 have
had no occasion to look into it,
and have heard of none being
offered"
Section 80 will this year earn
at least s. share on its entire
capitalization, which is 80 per cent
OH the par value, and the mine is
believed to have very prosperous
future. The Mining Letter once
predicted that Section 80 stock will
some day command around $50 a
share, and still holds that opinion.
This paper suggests that the field
of iron mining investment be given
careful attention.
The management of Section 80
whose mine on the Vermilion
range is one of the best known
independent iron mines in the
Lake Superior region, is very con-
sentative. and the rumor that a
dividend may be expected in June
cannot be confirmed. But it is
known that the company has a
handsome surplus to which it is
now making substantial addition
rapidly. The Mining Letter, how
ever, looks to see the company go
on a dividend basis this year, and
make attractive disbursements at
certain periods thereafter. At SIS
to $1S per share Section 80 Mining
should prove a very fine invest

Greater Efficiency

Clement K. Quinn of Duluth,
who is prominently identified with
independent iron mine operations,
says:
Many people are estimating
how much iron ore can be delivered
to the lower lake ports this year,
from the Lake Superior region. 1t
would not be surprising, if there
were enough lake boats to be had,
that 70 millions could be delivered.
About IS to 81 million tons seems
reasonable, however. Lake vessel
tonnage is limited for the ore and
other business in sight, and of
course the weather will have a
bearing on the number of round
trips. Everybody interested, how
ever, will be ready and eager to get
started at the opening of naviga-
ton, and in view of the tense
situation, which will last all season,
from present prospects, I look for
greater efficiency in mining and
transportation of iron ore than
ever before in the history of the
industry and traffic"

Primary Election

The presidential preference prim-
airy election held Tuesday was a
tame affair just as expected. The
election throughout the entire state
was characterized with the same
lethargy on the part of the voters.
and the vote was small. The
Eight District delegates to the
Chicago convention. Mile Bunnell
of Duluth and Daniel Gum of
Grand Rapids, who were without
opposition carried almost every
vote. The delegates at large came
through in the following order,
the main ones only being given:
Larson of Duluth; Gov. Eberhart
of Minneapolis; Gov. Van SAINT of
St. Paul and Congressman Stevens
of Minneapolis. The balance of
the list received scattering votes.
The Democratic district delegates,
Douglas Greeley of Virginia and
John Jenswold of Duluth were the
leaders. On the presidential vote,
Woodrow Wilson defeated Albert
B. Cummins in Ely.

Ely Loses Game

Two Harbors slipped one over on
the Ely basket shooters in the game
in the port city Saturday evening.
AS Ely had defeated Two Harbors
SO to 16 in this city a few weeks
ago it was expected that the game
Friday would be easy meat. Those
who witnessed the game claim it
was fast. The score, 16 to 18,
would indicate a good exhibition.
The Ely boys played Gilbert
here the night before and several
were not exactly in good condition.
In fact, Hegman and Carlson
should not have been allowed to go
to Two Harbors. The Ely team
was made up of Carlson, Hegman,
Nankervis Knutson and Maxi
while Two Harbors had Strand
Claffy, Steen, Rock and Fortmen.

CLUB MEETS
Commercial Club Does Business
Last Evening
Attendance Good and Much Of
Benefit Resulted

A special meeting of the Com
mercial Club was called for last
evening. The meeting was we'll
attended as several important sub
jects were to be acted upon.
Opinions of several legal firms
were received on the sewer and
sidewalk assessment subject and
after discussion a motion was
made to drop the matter insofar as
the club was concerned at this
time. 1t was believed that nothing
OF benefit would accrue with a
further discussion at this time and
the time to act will be when the
payment is demanded. The
opinion seems to prevail in some
quarters that it is up to those hav-
ing the twelve foot walks to pay
the assessment and have those
having six foot walks and assessed
the same as those with twelve foot
walks to make a fight when the
proper time comes. One opinion
received was very emphatic in its
statement of the assessment not
having been made according to
law. The assessment matter has
been agitating the people of the
city for some time ard the object
of the club was to get at the
bottom of the affair and try and
get things right in view of the
numerous conflicting arguments
INDUCED in.
The matter of a revision of the
city charter which has been a de-
funct document and worthless for
many years was brought up and a
warm discussion had in which
members of the charter board and
others participated. In order to
bring the thing to head a motion
was made to request the present
charter commission to call a meet
ing of its members and each and
every one resign and that a new
commission be asked for from the
judges of the district court. This
motion was carried without a dis
senting vote.
This action was brought about
by the internal dissentions among
the members of the commission and
the past efforts made to get a
charter carried. Two efforts have
The Ely miner. [volume] (Ely, Minn.) 1895-1986, 1916-03-17

ment. It is assumed that some
stock may be located around these
figures.
The Section 80 company will
have three systems of mining, open
pit, milling and underground, in
progress this year. There will be
something of an innovation in the
open pit operations. A Myers
Whaley shovel machine, which
may be used also underground,
will take the place of the steam
shovel. The shovel machine has a
guaranteed capacity of 90 tons an
hour and as first cost, and the cost
of operation, is small compared to
a steam shovel. 1t looks as if it
may supplant the latter at certain
properties.
Section 80 will have very pros
porous year.

TEACHERS TO Meet
Conference Of Instructors to
be Held at tile State nU'.

BY joint arrangement with the
University and the state depart
ment of education, conferences of
high school tea chers of Eng lish
and commercial subjects will be
held at the State University ON
Tuesday and "Wednesday, April 10
and 10. These dates precede the
short course and the meeting of
the city superintendent and
graded school principals to be held
during the same week. w.
The purpose Of the conference
of the secondary teachers is to
provide an opportunity for study
and investigation of the methods,
scope. and plan of teaching these
subjects as part of the course in
secondary educat ion.
If this first conference meets
with the support of the teachers
and other educators, it is the pur-
pose of the University and the de-
partment to make it an annual
event.
The University plans on inviting
teachers of other high school sub
jects to participate in future con-
ferences and in time to have the
annual conference composed of all
teachers engaged in secondary
work.
1t has been the custom of school
boards in Minnesota to permit the
teachers to be absent for meetings
of this nature, if the schools have
been in session.
The University offers this course
with view of improving school SER
vice by securing more definite
understanding among schools and
teachers and the best plans and
standards under which other SUBJ
jects should be taught.

so far been put forth and each fell
through when the vote was cast.
This city needs charter that is up
to the city's standing. This village
stuff in first class town is no good.
The fish and game committee
reported on several matters before
it and they were granted further
time to look into affairs and report
at the next regular meeting.
A committee consisting of Henry
Chinn, Mayor Harri and DR.. Ayres
was appointed to look up the
matter of a suitable meeting place
for the club. The Opera House
will shortly be used for motion
pictures and the club could not
always get the hall for meetings,
besides the cost of rent is
prohibitive.
The next regular meeting of the
club will be held on March % when
several other important matters
will be brought up.

Anderson Busy

All the work being done at the
Anderson mine is leading towards
the production of ore before many
days and it is confidently expected
that the property will become a
shipper as soon as spring gets here
and the railroad is built to the
mine. A raise is being driven
from the 800 to the 200 foot level
and the management is of the
opinion that ore will be hoisted be-
fore the end of the month.
