389 ballots were cast at the
primary election in the three pre-
cincts of the city Monday. The
first precinct cast 1876, with rs in
the second and 17S in the third.
Under the new arrangement of
precincts the second gained con-
siderable territory which ac-
counts for the shrinkage of votes
in the first precinct, the largest
in the city heretofore.
Governor Burnquist carried the
city by little better than two to
one showing that the people were
alive to the issues before them.
Senator Nelson ran nearly three
to one against Peterson. At that,
Peterson ecured considerable
more votes here than expected.
The candidates for sheriff and
their vote was somewhat of sur
prise. The voters evidently
played no favorites for this posi-
ton as the three came in under
the wire neck and neck
The primary election again
showed the uses to which the law
as at present constituted adapts
itself. Men who could not mus
ter corporal's guard of support
ers in the state got on the ticket
because they had the filing fee
and thus became notorious at
small expense. Such men as Pc

old war horse, Nelson should not
have been on the ticket. Peter

ANNUAL Meeting
vsrmIIlon Range Old Settlers
Association at Tower July "a

At a meeting Of the executive
committee Of the Vermilio
Range Old Settlers Association
held in this city Saturday even
ing and at which President e. J
Morcom of Tower presided, it was
decided to hold the annual meet
ing ON July "a, and that the same
be confined to one day. Hereto
fore three days have been most
agreeably utilized with the annual
gathering but this year, owing to
the desire to be of the most bene-
fit in the war conservation pro-
gram, it was the unanimous opin-
ion that only one day should be
devoted to the meeting.
The meeting this year will be
at Tower and will consist Of a
basket picnic with a get-together
program at Mckinley Park with
music and dancing at the pavilion
and program of sports. The
banquet and grand ball hereto
fore featuring these gatherings
will be missing this year. The
association will, as usual furnish
coffee, cream and sugar for the
picnickers and everyone is sup
posed to bring the other neces-
saries towards a successful picnic.
The business meeting Of the as
sociation will be held on the morn
ing of the Oath at 10 o clock when
officers will be elected and other
business transacted. For Ely a
committee consisting of Grant
McMahan, Chas. Trezona and
John Dinsmore has been ap-
pointed to have charge of trans
portation, automobiles and music
from this end of the range. The
committees for Tower will be
named by President Morcom af-
ter conference with the Tower
people.
While the advisahility of hold
ing no meeting this year was dis
cussed owing to the conditions
existing it is the opinion of a
/

government comes to their relief
in the price fixing matter they
will ultimately be forced to big
losses. At least that is the way
the situation appears at present,
from the several and combined
cost sheets of five Lake Superior
districts for the season of 1918
thus far.
A meeting of the Independent
producers Of Lake Superior met
Tuesday in Chicago with the
Lake Superior Ore Association,
and later with a committee of the
American Iron & Steel Institute.
There were 60 representatives of
the independent iron producers of
Lake Superior present.
At the meetings were presented
figures which show that the aver
age loss per ton on 1913 business
has been % cents.
The average loss per ton by
ranges (the Vermilion being miss
ing) was as follows:
Mesaba, 37c; Guyana, &c; Me-
nominee, 15.4c. Gogebic, 64c, and
Marquette, tic.
These figures have no reference
to the advance Of freight rates
which will take place June 25.
A committee of Lake Superior
Independents, together with a
committee of the American Iron
& Steel Institute, will visit Wash
ington June 20 to confer with the
price fixing committee Of the war
board, for. the purpose of seeking
relief from the present serious
situation.
| The independent iron ore pro-
ducers have selected. a strong
committee from among them
selves to go to Washington June
| 2Oth to seek relief from the price
fixing committee. 1t consists of
George A. St. Clair, John A. Saw
age, O. B. Warren, w. G.. Mather
| G.. d. Van Dyke, r.. G. Schless-
niger and T. d. Heed.
! The manganiferous producers
are not so seriously affected
They have sold their product as
a rule by the unit. They suffer
| in a reflex way by the non-ad
vancement of prices where they
have used Mesaba non-Bessemel
Iprice as base.
While many of the independent
I iron ore operators are filled witt
: genuine alarm as the situation
! now stands, it is unthinkable tha'
the price fixing committee of tht
war board will not give them fail
relief. The Soc advance in raj
rates from mines to docks, effec
: tive June 25, means more than 81
cents for it is now said that thi
rate applies to long tons. Instead
of total Of 931a cents it will b.
81, or approximately that.

what title he sails under. The
only consolation We have in this
section of the state rs, that the

dates in Ely were as follows:

large number of the members that
a meeting should be held owing
to the number of old settlers

a large one.

But Billy Louise felt as though some
thing precious had died. She should
have gone down and investigated and

fear that held her to the upper slopes.
She did not want to know what brand

ooh, Godw she said once aloud, and
there was a prayer and protest,
curse and a question all in those two
words.
So trouble trouble that sickened her

tiles Here.

New York, March 19.-Four persons,
two men and two women, claiming
French citizenship, but who both
American and French authorities say
have been intimately connected with
German espionage activities in the
United States, were arrested in, their
handsomely appointed suites in promi-
nent New York hotels by agents of
the department of justice.
They will be turned over 10 immi-
grafton authorities for deportation to
France.
In making known the arrest Of the
quartette, Charles f. DeWoOdy, divi-
sion superintendent of the department
of justice, intimated their deportation
was desired in order to place them
under the jurisdiction of French au-
thorities, who may further their prose-
cution.

The other twoa suspects are known
as Nine. Elizabeth Charlotte Nix and
Count Robert de ClairmOnt.
Count de Clairmont, the authorities
say, was seen frequently in the COM

negotiations with J. P. Morgan & Co.

Coded Cables Seized.
When Nine Storch and Baron de
Beville were taken into custody at Key
West, while en- route to Cuba, half
bushel basket of papers was seized
from safe deposit box in this city
which one of them had rented. A num-
Der of cable. messages in code were
among these papers.
Because of embarrassment which
they said might result between the
