ENGLAND STARTS REPRESENTATION OF
 ALLEGED TRUSTS

London, May s-Engiand has sstarted an anvestigatien of the post asE growth of alleged trusts and pnaonopolfes&
 A prohteerang committee which has E5een looking into the activity of EeAectric light companies and lamp sbuI6 manufacturers, in a report re- sceutly made public, says that ca ntzakAe combination does exist among hs7eotrac light manufacturers in this snoNntry and exercises a powerful in Fnnance over the conduct and devel- Fopment of the industry"
 It Is known as the Electric Light AAanHfacturers' association, the re- Eport says, and has been created pri- Enzar1ly in the Interests Of three firms t-the British Ihon1son-Hous4on Co., Eff1e General Electric Co and Messrs. hSsemens Brothers It is reported to ktnc1uSle from 90 to S5 per cent of the i1zsdmstry, so hx prices and regulate foutput says the prohteering conn EnnaGbee.
 The prices fixed by association, the krepor+ says, become the standard for EaM lamps sold in this country, FWhetaer made by association or non association manufacturerS or i'm tported from abroad Because of this sstandard pr1ce policy the general public reap no benefit from lamps Of Pcheaper manufacture, the advantage kgoirg wholly to distributors
 Standard vacuum lamps, now sold keo9the public for three Shiliings, states EG7ae report, could be sold at two kshIIings at which price the ma nufac- ttz1Eer and distributor would still have r.
 "One and a quarter million half fwatt aamps," adds the report, 'tsoad Ito the public dn 1919 at twelve s1ill- sings and siZpence each were purchaS- hed in Holland by three associated manufacturers at about three shiIl- iings a lamp They could have been esold at no more than eight shiIiings which would have still left ample noargin for the importers and dis trfbutors- Importers and distributors Between them made profits on thess faamps, of something like $1,400, ,000 over and above what would appear to us reasonable
 ''S;nce the largest of the three d9ouninant frms,' continues the report sis under the majority control of sGn American electrical concern, there f3s some danger that the interests of 4ile British lamp industry may be LSubordinated to American interests.
 There is a possibility of an inter national combination comprising Brit fish, Dutch and American manufactur CTS which would be able to control supplies and dominate prices over a considerable part of the world.
 '~The operations of an association +zvf1ach so effectively controls an inn portant industry" concludes the re- port, ''should be subject to public supervision and control"

More Pay for State Legislators.

Madison, The constitutional a
mendment bureau soon will launch
a campaign for increased pay for
members of the Wisconsin legisla-
tute. The present pay is $500 for
the term of two years and the aver
age session lasts six months. Mi.
leage is paid to and from Madison
for the regular or special sessions.
Two legislatures have adopted a
resolution for changing the constitu-
tional salary provision and the peo-
pie next April will vote on the pro-
posal. Assemblyman Frank B.
Metcalfe is secretary OF the bureau
directing the campaign.
Confidence prevails that the
change will be approved. This
would permit one legislature to set
the salary for the succeeding legis-
lature and it Is planned to call a
one-day special session of the pre-
sent legislature to fix the salary for
the 1921 body.

Another Ore Body at Ashland Mine

Concerning the discovery of an
other body of ore at the Ashland
mine The Ironwood Times had
the following in its last issue:
Capt. Robt. King and his CO.
workers at the Ashland mine, who
have been wearing broad smiles for
the past few months on account of
the fine, big body of ore recently
discovered in the old property which
was reported TO have been worked
out several years ago, have had this
smile considerably ybroadened during
the past week, by the discovery of
another big ore body, or, as it
might be called, an unlocked for
extension of the former discovery.
1t will be remembered that the
recently reported ore discovery at
the Ashland was between two dyk-
es, the lower one on the twenty
second level and the upper OH the
twentieth. These dykes dip to the
west, and it was thought that the
entire body of ore was confined be
tween them. About a week ago,
however, a raise from the twentieth
level, about six hundred feet west
of No. 9 shaft, went through the
upper dyke, aud into what was ev-
identity a fine, big body of ore.
Comparatively little exploratory
work i'll this ore was done at this
point, for the reason that the flow
of water following the penetration
of the dyke was so great as to
greatly interfere with mining oper-
atoms. But, while this great flow
of water, causes more or less trou-
BILE, it is message of JOY TO the
experienced miner, as it is fine
indication of big body of ore.
In order to explore and determine
the extent of this new find Of ore
at the Ashland, drift is now be
ing driven west on the twentieth
level from No. shaft. This drift
is now in about nine hundred feet
and is expected to cut the dyke and
enter the ore body about fifty OF
sixty feet further west. When this
point is reached drifts and raises
will be run through the ore body
and its extent determined.

DID THE CENSUS ENUMER-
ATOR GET YOUR NAME?
1t Is the Patriotic Duty of Every Re.
sident of Hurley to See that Every
body Is Counted.
Have you been counted?

nave you Deen counted!
This is the question which every
resident of Hurley should ask every
other resident.
The government census which is
taken every ten years is now in
progress in the city, Every resi-
dent Of the city should make it his
business to see that his name has
been placed on the list. If the cen
Sus enumerator missed you or any
member Of your family or your
neighbor or your friend il is your
patriotic duty to get into communi-
cation with the enumerator, or with
the secretary of the Commercial
Club or a member of the committees
appointed TO work with the census
taker, The time. allowed for tax
ing the census is drawing to close.
The figures will soon be sent to the
department at Washington and in a
few months the population of the
country will >e announced. Hur-
ley's population for the next ten
years will be officially recognized
at the figures announced by the
government. We want to be cred
tied with a population which right
fully belongs to the city and it
would be an injustice to the city to
not have every resident counted.
1t is therefore the duty of every
citizen to see that he and his family
and all those about him have been
counted.
AT the meeting of the city
council Tuesday evening the
matter of the census received atten-
ton. A committee of councilmen
was named to work in conjunction
with the enumerators and the COM
mittee of the Commercial Club in
the difficult task of enumerating
residents Of the city. The members
of the committee are A. F. Collins, |
Ben Berglund and w. +. Paynter. .
Secretary of the Commercial Club
F. B. Williams reports that already
a score of names have been report
ed to him as those not yet counted.
Many of them are from sections of
the city already visited by the en-
umerator. A few of them reside
right on the main street of the city. |
The census enumerator' job is a
difficult one and in spite of his care
full attention TO the duties it is to
be expected that some are going to
be missed, but this number can be
made very small if the citizens in
general will cooperate. We want
Hurley to be credited with as large
a population as possible. 1t will be
to the best interests of the city.
Therefore, everybody get busy.
