DRAFT EvADERs.


Now comes the news that the war
department is getting ready to smoke
out the draft evaders and will COM
pile a list of the names for publica-
ton. The following letter has been
rereived at this Office:
Editor The Ely Miner:
Doomsday looms just over the hor-
zon for the draft deserter. That
willy gentleman who hid behind a tree
and chuckled as his neighbor should
cred gun and marched off to battle
is soon to have that chuckle mopped
off his face. He will find that no
tree vegetables enough to cover from
shame the miserable carcass of his
manhood.
The woods were good hiding while
they lasted, but slowly, exasperat-
ingly slowly, the government has
been chopping out all the underbrush
and soon now, very soon, it is prom
ised, the more than 100000 who
cheated in the greatest game that

of understandable ore. A greater
encouragement could not be pro-
posed than the tonnage tax. 1t is
a good deal like the excess profits
tax, presumably necessary in time of
war, but invariably condemned in
times of peace. In fact it is worse
than the excess profits tax, for that
tax had no bearing upon an undevel-
oped business, while the tonnage tax
says to the prospector, inventor and
investor:
Better look out. If you succeed,
I'll soak you"
No one process or scheme can be
worked out to handle all the differ
ent kinds of material coming under
the head of lean ores. No one now
is going to hit upon some lucky idea
that will solve all the complex prob
lens involved. Long, tedious re-
search work and many discouraging
failures will be encountered. Money
must be freely spent, consequently
the promise of reward must be large.
1t is the height of folly to penalize in
advance a prospective industry that
means so much to the permanency
of the iron ore district and the pros
perity of the state.-Skilling's Min
ing Review.

JUDGE GARY AND
MINNESOTA Ores.
ORE RESOURCES AND THE
PROPOSED TONNAGE TAX.

When Judge Gary of the United
States Steel Corporation was in Du-
luth in January, 1918, he said:
within this state are billions of
tons of iron ore not now considered
of any market value whatever, which
some day will be valuable and which
may be used practically and profit
ably for conversion into iron and
steel. And it will be hundreds of
years before this iron ore is ex-
hausted."
But with all his prophetic vision
Judge Gary cannot tell who is to do
this great work, nor how it is to be
done. The low grade ores of which
ne was speaking are not all alike.
The Vermilion range has large de-
posits of banded jasper, streaks of
ore separated by streaks of rock.
The eastern end of the Mesabi has
the low grade deposits of magnetic
ore, for the handling of which a pro-
cess has been worked out at cost of
half million dollars actually ex-
pended. In Cook and Lake counties
are found vast deposits of ores that
today are understandable because
the ore has a percentage of titanium
which renders it useless as far as the
customary blast furnace practice is
concerned. All over the central por-
ton of the Mesabi are almost un-
limited quantities of lean ore, a few
points in iron below what the fur
naces today can handle at a profit
The washable ores are in great guam
THY, and are already being washed
up to commercial grades by millions
OF tons per year In addition, there
sSe the taconites, the paint rocks and
+;le iron bearing states, of no value
today because of their low iron con-
tent.
1t should be remembered in this
connection that Minnesota is not the
only state that has vast quantities
of low grade iron ores. Michigan
and Wisconsin have great deposits. |
But Minnesota is fortunate in having
the lead of all other states in high
grade ores that have enabled her to
gain a commanding position and
take the primacy in ore production.
She should be far sighted enough to
hold that lead by giving every en-
enlargement possible to the discov-
cry and means and methods of MAX
ing merchantable her vast resources

suspend payments of soldier bonuses
until such time as the bond market
conditions change or the state legis-

the bonds in large amounts. This
means that more than 10000 Mime

money. The checks outstanding have
about eaten up the amount on hand
and the board is compelled to take

WINCHESTER FARMERS
FEAR FOR CORN CROP

winchester. Va, Sept. l9.-In
spite of a forecast issued bv the
bureau of crop estimates in Rich
mond last week. to the effect that
the states corn crop this year is
the best and largest in the history
of the state. many farmers in the
Shenandoah Valley, one of the prin-
cipal corn belts of Virginia, are ex-
pressing grave fears that much Of
the corn will be injured by frost
long before it ripens. They declare
the corn is as green now as it was
six weeks ago, with no indication of
ripening. The only thing that will
save the corn crop in this section,
it was stated, is warm weather dav
and night from now until the mid q.
die of October.
