fine GATHERING
Meeting Of St. Louis County Club
a Success.

The St. Louis County Club,
which is composed of all the Com
mercial and Farmers Clubs of St.
Louis County, held one of its most
successful meetings in this city
Yesterday. The meeting was ar
ranged under the auspices of the
Ely Commercial Club and Geo. L.
Brozich, mayor of the city who is
at the present time also vice presi-
dent of the St. Louis County Club.
He was ably assisted by a large
number of Ely citizens and auto
owners who volunteered their autos
for the use of the delegates, and
especially by Thos. S. Written of
the St. Croix Lumber & Manu-
featuring Co. and G. H. Good of
the Swallow & Hopkins Lumber
Co. of Winton, who furnished all
the Accommodations and served a
splendid dinner at Eve Lake Dam.
About 100 delegates of various
Commercial and Farmers clubs of
the county were present, among
whom were many representative
business men of the State as we'll
as many County and State officials,
most of whom arrived in the city
in automobiles early in the morn
ing.
The business session was held at
the City Hall at $3.50 a. m. with L.
B. Arnold, president of the Club
presiding and R. L. Fifth acting
as secretary. The most important
matters discussed were the necessity
of larger appropriations from the
County for carrying on the good
work of the Club for the develop
ment of the northern part of the
State, and the importance of hav-
ing a creditable exhibit at the
Minnesota State Fair next Fall,
all of which has been warmly sup
ported by the delegates present.
After the business meeting, the
delegates motored to Winton,
where they embarked on boats pro-
vided by Mr.. Written and Mr..
Good and sailed to the Kawishiwi
Falls where the dinner was served.
While at the Falls the delegates
had the pleasure of seeing the

operation of the dams in sluicine
logs through the Falls.
About 40 Ely citizens joined the
party in Ely and welcomed the
delegates to the city. According
to the general impression gained
this meeting will be of great value
to our community in the develop
ment, for the trip has opened the
eyes of many delegates as to the
natural beauties and possibilities of
our country and they have all
pledged their support for Our
DEVELOPMENT.
After the outing, the delegates
were met at Winton by automobiles
and taken to Ely, from where they
departed for their homes, after
many thanks to the citizens of Ely
and Winton.
The success of this meeting can
also be a lesson to the citizens of
Ely, as it has clearly shown what
can be accomplished by little
pull-together spirit. We have adj
vantages and opportunities here
which we do not appreciate because
they are too numerous, but it is
time that we wake up and make
good use of what nature has given
US. It is up to us to develop the
community welfare and we hope
that the result of this meeting will
put new energy into the citizens of
Ely and Winton. With proper
and SYSTEMATIC advertising we can
bring untold wealth to our COM

Will Recover

Word was received here the
first of the week that Peter Aarni
manager of the Bull baseball
team who was injured in this city
two weeks ago will recover. Mr..
Aarni was struck in the face with
a baseball with such force that
his skull was fractured. For
several days it was feared that
Aarni had been fatally injured,
but physicians now are confident
that he is out of danger.

The different committees which
have charge Of the celebration for
the Fourth Of July are very ac-
tive and by the time the national

there will be something doing

The days festivities will open
in the morning by the bands play
ing The Star Spangled Banner, af-
ter which the parade will form at

flag will receive a prize. After
the parade there will be a read
ing of the Declaration of indie
pendence at the city hall, which
will be followed by speeches by
prominent orators.
At 10 O'Clock the races for the
children will be put ON and from
then on there will be something
doing in the line Of sports all day.
There will probably be a base
ball game in the afternoon, but
up to this time it is not definitely
known what team will be here.
A dance in the evening will wind
up the day.
