OF this, shall we hesitate for a moment
to respond to the last call-the Victory
Liberty Loan-when we can do so by
pledging our credit, perhaps with some
little personal Inconvenience, sacrifice
or small discomfort?
The blood Of the young manhood of
America is not now required That
was generously given before the armi-
stice was signed, and now we may give
thanks that no more will be taken.
The credit and good faith of our
country is at stake. We have won the
war, and the cost is small compared
with what has been won. The men of
the West with red blood in their veins
will not Feed to be appealed to, because
they will subscribe to this last call of
the Government as ungrudgingly as
they did in the past. There are others,
however, who may not be so keenly and
conscientiously alive to the duty of re.
spending to the Nations call, and it is
to those that the women must direct
their most untiring efforts.
This last call is truly Victory Loan
What greater pride can men and wo
men experience than in contributing
to It? A Victory Bond will be worth
more than its price expressed in dol
lars. Every one will be badge testi
flying that the holder has helped his
country to fulfill its pledge to those
who have been spared as well as those
who have made the supreme sacrifice

QUOTAS OF LOAN
WILL DEPEND ON
WAR STAMP SALES
Oversubscriptions of january
and February Savings Cam
paign Allotments to Re-
duce Loan Task

Victory Liberty Loan quotas of the
Twelfth Federal Reserve District are
to be determined in some measure by
the amounts loaned the government
by each district in War Savings
Stamps during January and February.
If q district oversubscribes it's War
Savings Stamp quotas for the first
two months of the year, it's Victory
Liberty Loan quota will be decreased
to the extent OF the oversubscription.
Conversely, if a district fails to reach
its January and February Stamp quo
tas, its Liberty Loan quota will be
increased.
When Lewis B. Franklin, director
of the War Loan Organization, was in
San Francisco recently, he revealed
that on the day the armistice was
signed there was in progress in Wash
ington a meeting to formulate plans
for the continuous sale of Liberty
Bonds-such a plan as governs the
sale of Thrift and War Savings
Stamps. Moreover, the Liberty Bond
and War Stamps work was to be
closely coordinated.
These plans were Immediately dis
carded when the Germans signed the
armistice and when Secretary of the
Treasury Glass took office he an
nounced that the Victory Liberty Loan
would be the last In the face of sug-
gestions that the Victory Loan be put
on cold commercial basis, he added
that the men making these sugges-
tons were discounting the patriotism
of the American people and he would
depend upon the patriotism of the
American people rather than place Sc
curities Of the United States govern
ment upon plane with the paper of
private corporations.

ment provides the way.
War Savings and Thrift Stamps,
conceived as a war measure and now
backed by the government as a per
manent policy, give every man, woman
and child in America the chance to

SHORT MEETING.

The Ely Commercial Club met last
evening at the Community Center
and transacted considerable business.
Reports were given by Secretary
Merdink and C. A. Dahlgren on Road
matters and the same were listened
to with interest. The Ely-Finland
Ely-Grand; Marais and Ely-Buyck
roads were discussed. All of these
projects are in the process of perfec-
ton and the coming few years will
see them reality. The committee
on roads were retained to give fur
Their attention to the projects.
Communications were read and
filed after discussion. 1t was the
sense of the Club that the campaign
of education on tonnage tax matters
at present being waged in all parts
of the state be endorsed and that the
Club stand as unit behind the eff
forts. The secretary was instructed
to get in touch with the. commercial
bodies of the Mesaba range and Du-
luth on the subject.
A delegation consisting of L. J.
White, c. A. Dahlgren and Mrs.
Peter Schaefer was named to repre-
sent the Club at the County Club at
the County Club meeting to be held
at Duluth early in January.

but one-fifth that of Duluth, it has a
valuation of $84s500,000, as COM
pared with $68,500,O00 for Duluth.
Hibbing's tax rate mounted from
1873 mills this year to $50 mills for
1920. Duluth's tax rate is So mills,
as against APP mills this year, and
Virginia's tax rate has advanced from
64.5 mills to 90.4 mills.
The village of Franklin has the
lowest tax rate in the county, 37.5
mills; the village of Mesaba has the
highest, of 1898 mills. Owing to a
dispute over the school levies in the
two districts comprising Chisholm the
tax, rate has not been definitely de-
termined. A tentative rate of 90.4
mills has been set for one district
and 64.5 mills for the other.
The tax rates in district having a
high assessed valuation are as fol-
lows: Eveleth, 1873 mills; Ely, 1877
mills; Tower, 1898 mills; Mountain

lowing rules: Do not waste hot
water, every gallon wasted wastes SO
much fuel. Turn off radiators. in all
rooms not in actual use; waste of
light is waste of fuel, Turn out all
lights not in use. Ventilate prop
erly, but do not waste heat. These
instructions should be so construed
as to in no way cause suffering or

COAL SITUATION
RATHER SERIOUS
u. S. FUEL ADMINISTRATORS
GARFIELD ISSUES PESSI-
MYSTIC STATEMENT.

So far Ely has not felt any seriou:
effects from the stringent coal sit
uation and it is expected that with
the judicious distribution of coal and
the increased use of wood, the sit.
uation will in time clear itself. Com
ing as it does, at the beginning of q
hard early winter during which near.
ly as much coal has already been
consumed as was used the larger part
of last winter, there is bound to be
hardship. Fuel Administrator Gar.
field has issued the following state
ment:
SIT is necessary that coal shall be
used only for essential purposes
Public utilities consuming coal should
discontinue to furnish power, heat
and light to non-essential industries,
and should only consume sufficient
coal to produce enough light, power
and heat to meet the actual needs of
the people. Advertising signs and
displays of various kinds necessita-
ting the use of coal should be cur
tailed, and no coal should be dis
tributed for such purposes. Pur-
suant to this policy l have requested
the Railroad Administrator in the
distribution of coal now or hereafter
in it's possession, to limit distribution
to these essential and urgent uses.
GAS far as practicable until con-
ditions warrant change in the distri-
button of coal will be limited to the
first five classes of the priority list.
Retail dealers who distribute coal for
household requirements, hotels, build
ings, hospitals, etc. should take every
precaution to see that coal is only
delivered where it is absolutely re-
quired, and then only in such limited
quantities that the supply may be
distributed wide and prevent suffer-
ing. The State and other local au-
thorities can materially aid in in
speeding and supervising such distri-
button by retail dealers, and the u.
S. Government will be glad to leave
the supervision and control of such
distribution by retail dealers entirely
to any State, County or Municipality
which must make provision therefor.
The distribution to the retail dealers
must necessarily be administered by
the Railroad Administration in pur-
suance of the orders already made

ERICKSON, cHAMPA AND STRA.
+. CHAN ALDERMAN--SCHAEF-
Err JUDGE.

The city election Tuesday for the
naming of three aldermen, municipal
judge and special judge, developed
considerable interest and was in
marked contrast to several previous
affairs of this character when can
didates were few and far between.
Eight names were on the ballot for
aldermen, three to be elected. Two
were on the ballot for municipal
judge and one for special Judge. At
the last moment opposition bobbed
up for special judge and made the
run on stickers.
John Erickson and B. o. Strachan
were. returned as aldermen. Mike
Somero was defeated, Louis Champa
winning the place. The aldermanic
vote was quite interesting and many
were the combinations doped out
during the day.
John Schaefer was returned as
municipal judge defeating John A.
Harri by 80 votes. Henry Chinn was
elected as special judge. The figures
in the council proceedings in another
column give the total vote cast in the
three precincts.

ORE VALUATION
MUCHLOWER
NO NEW MINES CAUSES LOWER.
ING OF TAX VALUES OF
IRON ORE.

st. Louis county lands containing
a merchantable iron ore have an as
sessed valuation of 1888, 663,231 on a
total of 1,1SO,822,166 tons, accord
ing to figures compiled and issued
by the Minnesota tax commission at
st. Paul. The total of all assessed
iron ore, lands in the state is $685.
109,S11 as compared to $295, 102,-
800 for 1918, decrease this year of
$12,993,079. st. Louis county pos
sesses about IS per cent of all the
iron ore lands in the state.
Iron ore is assessed for taxation
purposes at one-half of full value, in
accordance with the provision of the
classified assessment law. Other
property is assessed at from 25 to 40
per cent of full value, according to
class. The decrease. in merchantable
tonnage reported, as well as in val
uatiorl, has been due to the fact that
little exploring for new ore was done
during the year ending May l, last,
the date of assessment. Only 7,90O,-
900 tons of new ore were found dur
ing this period, while the shipments
from Minnesota aggregated 45,000,-
900 tons.
In addition to the merchantable
tonnage measured by the tax COM
mission there are approximately 1885,
100000 tons of ore of record in the
tax commissions office, the grade and
character of which are such that pres
ent market standards and conditions
make it non-merchantable. At some
future time this ore may have a mar
ket value.
The valuation figures include as
sessments for structures and i'm
provements on mineral lands and a
nominal assessment for the surface,
totaling $1,490,064. Iron ore in
stockpile at the mines, that is, mined
iron ore, is assessed as personal prop
erty, also at so per cent full value.
The amount on hand May l varies
considerably from year to year, due
to shipping and market conditions.
This year 4,912,403 tons of mined
ore were reported and the assessed
value is $6,627,419. Last year T.
015,787 tons were reported and the
assessment was $8,237,586.
In 1906, the year before the tax
commission was created, the total
assessed value of all mineral proper
