Not Showing the Right Spirit.


There has been considerable disap-
pointment among the officers of the
Ely Athletic Association concerning
the attendance at the baseball games
so far this season. The BOYS have
been putting up a first class article
of ball, and while the weather. con.
ditions for the last two games were
favorable, the crowds were small.
The Ely Athletic Association has 100
members, but a large number of
these are not supporting the ball
games. The expense of bringing
teams here this year is very heavy,
and unless the attendance improves
the season will prove money loser.
The boys are doing their share and
are working hard every evening. The
article of ball displayed here COM
pares very favorably with that wit
messed at the Mesaba Range towns
and the team certainly deserves bet
ter support than it is getting. Let
everyone who possibly can turn out
Sunday and give our boys the en-
couragment they deserve.

After a conference with State
Treasurer Rines by Commissioners M.
Peterson and County Engineer H.C.
Hanson last week, arrangements
were made whereby the balance of
the fire relief bonds which were to
have been sold by the state last fall
for the completion of the Stoney-
Isabella road will be taken by the
local banks.
Ten thousand dollars were taken
last fall by the State Bank of Ely
with which work was begun and dis
continued for lack of funds, and it
is only by virtue of the fact that the
local banks were willing to invest in
the 5 per cent securities that the
county will be enabled to continue
the work this summer, and not only
open a direct route to Ely but give
employment to many who would
otherwise be out of work.
Engineer Hanson now has a crew
of men grading that part of the road
which was brushed and stumped last
fall, and he thinks that by late au-
tumn the route will be completed
SO that one can go direct to Ely.
Much credit is due Commissioner
Peterson for his persistency in see
ing the project through, and to the
local banks for their public spirited
ness in making the funds available.

the gross earnings tax paid into the
state by the railroad companies trans
porting nearly six million tons.
The leases issued under the law
of 1889 will remain the same until
their term expires, or they are sur
rendered, but all new leases will be
made under the terms of the new law,
which is known as chapter Alp of the
laws of 1921.
The old mineral lease law provided
for mineral prospecting permit. or
option, for one year, during which
time the holder would prospect on a
given tract of land not exceeding
100 acres. At any time of the year
he was entitled to ask for and receive
from the state mineral lease cover
ing the term of so years. This
lease provided for fiat royalty of 25
cents per ton upon all ore mined and
removed from the property. Each
ton was to be reckoned at 224O
pounds, known as long or gross ton.
The lessee was required to pay a
ground rent or minimum royalty of
$3.50 a year after five years from
the time railroad had been built
within one mile of the property.
This minimum of $3.50 per year was
held to be ground rent, and not ad-
vance royalty, so that after the end
of the year in which payment was
made no credit could be given for this
payment. This position taken by
the state was affirmed to be the cor
rect Interpretation by a decision of
the supreme court of Minnesota i'm
the case of State VS.. Cayour Mining
Company.
The royalty of the ore shipped was
payable upon the weight of the crude
ore as it came from the mine before
benification. For a number of years
this was mooted question, but was
finally settled as the law in decision
of the State VS.. Hobart Iron Co.
Under this decision all ore coming
from state leased mines is weighed
by the agents of the STATE Auditor on
scales provided for by the mining
company, before the ore is treated in
any way. At the close of the sea-
SON the state is reimbursed for the
expenses thus incurred This plan

STATE GETS
MANY MILLIONS.
IRON ORE AND TIMBER PRO.
DUCES MUCH REVENUE FOR
THIS STATE.
(from Skilling's Mining Review.)

The Mining Review recently gave a
very thorough examination of the
working of the new minerals leasing
law as it will apply to the mineral
lands owned by the state of Mime
sofa, and it will not, be amiss to de-
scribe what the old leasing law has
done for the state, and review it's
operation briefly, for many properties
are now being worked under that law.
This first law was passed in 1889
and remained in force until suspend
ed by the legislature of 1907, since
which time no mineral leases have
been issued by the State of Minnesota
upon It's lands, with the exception of
lease to lake beds under a special
law passed in 1917.
Under the law of 1889 more than
500 leases rthe mining of iron ore
were issued, 85 of which are still in
force today, and contain a tonnage
of merchantable ore yet to be mined
of some 160 millions of tons, accord
ing to recent report of the Min
nesota Tax Commission. Under the
terms of the lease this tonnage is SUBJ
ject to all foSms of taxation, and had
an assessed valuation for the year
1920 of approximately $50, 900.
Lands belonging to the state, and
not under lease are not taxed, so that
communities having an acreage of
state land in their vicinity receive no
revenue from such land. This fact
alone is strong reason for again
placing the lands upon the market
for leasing.
During 1920 the royalties from the
ore shipped under the old law
amounted to practically $500, 900. 90
To this should be added the state tax
on approximately $4,000, 100000, and

The second piano recital given by
part of Mrs. Koivumaki's class at
the Community Center recently fully
proved its equal to the first. The
same characteristics which were not

feature of the second, namely: clear
ness OF melody, correct phrasing and
expression. The audience was very
appreciative and applauded heartily

ball boys fell victims to the superior
playing of Ely Sunday when nine in
nings Of snappy ball was given the
large crowd of spectators. A fea-
ture of the game was the antics of
the players when the ball was hit to
the grounds near the new school
where large number Of holes had
been drilled into the ledge and filled
with pegs among which the ball cav
orted most shamelessly and made it
tough for the fielders. The score was

Chapter 148 Of the laws of 1921.
The lease law under which all of
the leases have been granted was q
very carefully worded law and has
served the state very well. It pro-
vided that the mines should be opened
and operated in accordance with good
mining practice, and that nothing
should be done to interfere with the
future operations of the property.
The only reason for it being suspend
ed was that the royalties were not
high enough, in the judgment Of the
state officials.
A total of SO million tons Of ore
has been forwarded, and in addition
to the royalty on this ore was fee
of $4,000 for permit paid to the
state. All of this income was cred
tied to the permanent trust funds to
which the land belonged, hence every
cent of money paid in any way to the
state, either under fees, royalties or
rents, is still in the trust funds of the
state, not one cent having been used
to defray the cost of inspection or
other expenses. This is also true in
the case of the sale of all state lands
covered with timber, ETC., so that to-
day the trust funds arising from the
timber, sale of lands, timber and min
erals amounts to more than Al mil
lions of dollars, with the assurance
that not less than sum equal to 40
millions will go to the trust funds of
the state within the next 25 or 80
years from the mineral lands already
under lease.
