many strings in county and county
courthouse, he had habit of hiring
automobiles for use in the hinterland
at the rate of $50 day. His gasoline
bills were something that made old
John D. rub his hands in glee and al
most write Noah A. a vote Of thanks.
Automobile hire and gasoline bills
finally amounted to scandal and the
county commissioners went to the mat
with Supt. Young. He was cocky,
snarly and arrogant, but had to change
some Of his curves.
Wise boys declared at the time that
they could see how county official
could rent automobiles at $50 day,
with an understanding with the sales
man Of the machines that, when the
rentals amounted to the cost of ma
chine or even bit more, then the title
! would be vested in the official respon-
sible for incurring the high rentals.
But, possibly. Supt. Young had no such
| system as that. Since then, automo-
biles have become much more common
end cheaper, and the liberal old board
Of county commissioners buys them as
a lover buys American Beauty roses
in punches of half a dozen or even a
dozen.
If you doubt this, dear old taxpayer,
count the automobiles that are being
driven here and there, both on county
business and private pleasure, by the
weary and overworked servants of the
neople, who are wearing away their
fair lives in public service. But all
that's another story, also.
1t is not believed that Supt. Young
will take kindly to change of storage
and office quarters to Virginia. In
the first place, he likes the comforts
Of a great city and daily glance at
Lake Superior. Then that new bus.
mess college at the West End will re-
quire some close supervision if it grows
and prospers. How can the proprietor
of young and struggling business
university do justice to it if he is COM
nelled to bivouac at Virginia or Hib-
hings It is bad enough to have to visit
Cook and other remote regions now
and then to see how the teacherages
are working out and if too many stray
! automobiles stand in front of them
over Saturday night and Sunday.
There is likely to be something Of a
"ruckus' if the courthouse commits
s'oners ever ask Supt. Young to move.
He is not what one would call a meek
and lowly gent. He has hurt the feel
ings of members of the board in the
mast bv "bawling them out' when
they checked him up summarily or de-
MED him something on which his heart
was set. He is likely to roar like a
wounded lion when asked to move and
his proneness to roar and "bawl OUT
his superiors may have some influence
IN the decision to shunt him over the
hill, through the hinterland and into
the new wart on the Virginia court
house.
Aside from all these considerations,
Supt. Young is politician Of no small
calibre and many have credited him
with a strong purpose Of taking the
place of the late Kong Odin, who gave
up the political ghost last November
and was gathered to bis fathers. OF
curse R. 81. Acton, county road cnei-
neer, who came to Duluth as a CARPET.
Dagger from st. Paul, has been cred
ted with barboring a similar ambition.
Young's removal to Virginia would
take strong rival out of Acton 8 way.

would enforce that ordinance. As a
result, he arrested big bunch of the
wettest boys in all Superior. Their
cases will come up next Monday.
There is a long roll of convictions
for violation of liquor ordinances,
gambling, redlight stunts and other in
fractions of state and municipal laws.
Space and time prevent compilation of
a complete roster Of those engaged in
trying to keep Superior in the mining
camp stage Of development.

EMMETT MINE WORKED OUT

The Emmett mine near Mckinley has
been worked out and permanently shut

Mesaba range. At one time it was
known as the Roberts, then the Atlas
