EIGHT CENTS FOR
FIRST LOAD COTTON

Eight cents per pond in the seed
was paid for the first load of cotton
of the season brought to town this
week by J T Collins who resides
north of Paris, beyond India and
purchased from him by the J T

percent off.

PROSPECTS GOOD
FOR, HIGHWAY.
STATE HIGHWAY COMMISSION
LOOKS WITH FAVOR ON NO.
IS THROUGH ELY.

Geo. L. Brozich returned Monday
from st. Paul where he had been as
a representative Of the City and the
Commercial Club to interview the
State Highway Commission in re-
CARDS to the extension Of the Babcock
paved highway system through to the
eastern limits of Ely. He reports
that the Commission was very fav-
orably impressed with the measure
and that the members were under the
misrepresentation that Ely had paved
streets when the original bill was
drawn.
One strong point in favor Of the
extension was the fact that the con-
tinuation of Route IS through the
city would tie the same on to the
Ely-Isabella road, the White Iron
road, the Winton road, the Ely-Vir-
ginia road leading south to Rabbit,
Embarrass and Mesaba range points,
the Gunflint- Grand Marais road and
everything leading out of town to the
east and south.
A meeting of the highway commits
sion will be held shortly after the
first of the year when it is expected
that this change in the original plans
or an extension to the original plans,
will be adopted. In the meantime
the matter should be definitely settled
by the city council and the county
commissioners and county engineer.
The council will take immediate ac-
ton and the county commissioners
likewise
