BUDGET INCREASE
Commissioners May Trim
Estimate OF $36, 500, 1000,
But Expect Liberal Figure.

Although the Commissioners have
not yet been told whether they will
have to cut their preliminary esti-
mates of s36,5Oo,oo0 for the next fis-
cal year. they are showing indica-
tions of confidence that the budget
bureau will give their requests for
needed funds careful and sympa-
thetic consideration
Maj. Daniel J. Donovan, auditor,
mas had number of informal confer
ences already with the men in the
budget bureau who handle the mu-
nicipal estimates.
Commissioner Oyster expressed the
Dellef yesterday that the budget Of
nclals would be as reasonable as pos
sibIe In passing on the Districts ex-
pense account for the year 1925-26.
Salaries biggest Increase.
The total of the preliminary esti-
mates is $4,000,000 higher than the
commissioners submitted a year ago,
Dut approximately $3,000,000 Of the
ADDED amount is the result of in
creased salaries granted all munich
pal employees this year.
The city heads have laid aside con-
sloeration OF the new estimates until
they find out how much of a reduc-
ton the budget bureau will require
When that information is before
them they will go through the vol
luminous Of figures again and submit
their final estimates in September.

ANNEXATION CASE is
CONCLUDED IN THIS CITY

A special term of the District
Court which has been hearing the
case of the Attorney General VS.
The City of Ely, in which the state
is protesting the annexation of the
territory east of the city on the
grounds of inadaptability for city
government was concluded here at
noon yesterday. All the evidence
to be secured here was presented
and another hearing on the matter
will be held in Duluth where
evidence of record in the county Of
fees will be presented.
Judge E. c. Kenny heard the case.
City Attorney Nelson assisted by
John Jenswold, Sr. of Duluth APP
peared for the City of Ely, while c.
o. Baldwin, H. A. Carmichael of
Duluth and H. j. Merdink of this
city handled the opposition.
No evidence was introduced ques-
tioning the legality of the annexa-
ton, the sole contention being that
the territory annexed is not adapted,
geographically, to city government.
Many witnesses have been heard
since the opening of the case and
the court room has been daily crowd
ed with those interested.
The outside attorneys left on the
noon train for their homes while
Judge Kenny remained over to
participate in the graduation exer-
cises last evening.

PARENTS OF DEAD MAN
RESIDE AT WINTON

William ]. Smith, who died at a
Bemidji hospital Saturday following
injuries received when he was
knocked under a moving box car at
Cass Lake while coupling an air hose,
in which accident he had limb
crushed near the hip, was buried in
Superior, Wis. Wednesday.
The unfortunate man was a son
of Mr.. and Mrs. C. C. Smith OF
Winton and leaves besides his par
ents three brothers and three sis
tiers and his widow and four child
rem. He was chairman of the griev,
ance board of the Brotherhood of
Railroad Trainmen, member of the
Knights of Columbus and the Elks
lodges of Superior.
Mr.. and Mrs. Smith upon being
appraised of the accident at once
left for Superior. The surviving
relatives have the sympathy of a
host of friends in their bereavement.

On the first page will be found
another one of those feelers sent out
by the down-stater to ascertain
sentiment in the southern part of
the state regarding another grab of
tax money from the northern end.
While the talk was made in the
interest of the iron industry of the
state and probably looks innocent
enough on its face, the affair has
possibilities of untold consequences
to northern Minnesota and especial
ly the range towns. Read over the
talk made by the professor and see
what you think of it. In our opin-
ion it: is propaganda of the vilest
kind and while ostensibly seeking to
interest the world in the possibilities
of the low-grade ores, taxation for
the benefit of the state at large is
the keynote which should not be
overlooked. $1N000,000 can be
taken from the communities on the
ranges and given to the balance of
the state" says the dope. What we
want to know is why?

AS one follows the daily news and
reads of hold-ups, confidence games,
swindles and burglary, maybe you
occasionally get the notion that the
world reeks with dishonesty. But
tits so. Honesty is so common and
general that it is not considered
news. Dishonesty is the excep-
tion-therefore a matter of inter
est. Soloman Ulmer, a Cleveland
bank president, interested in a new
tuberculosis sanitarium at Los
Angeles, picked a thousand names
at random from the city directory.
To each of these he mailed letter,
inclosing a dollar bill. He stated
that he hoped the dollar would be
returned with another one as sub
scription to the fund but they could
keep the dollar if so inclined, but
hoped they would not. Over 500
returned the dollar with at least one
more, and 200 sent the dollar back
alone. The other 200 kept the dol
lar. This would indicate that four
out of five were honest, and three
out of five both generous and honest.

Congressman o. J. Larson took a
public fall out of the statements
made by Governor Preus in Wash
ingtonys last week He could not see
it the$way the governor saw the
situation and it must be said the
congressman has his finger on the
politicaH pulse of this state. Fig
ures compiled by political statisti-
clans Seyen go so far as to show
that ifPresident Coolidge lost the
states mentioned by the governor,
he would have more than enough
electoral votes for an election. Be
sides, President Coolidge has at
least, an even chance in the states
named.
