The variances of human nature
are illustrated every day. Mondays
paper brought the news of the
gaining strength of a Duluth boy
by reason of blood TRANSMISSION
by two of his classmates whereby
each gave quart of their blood to
save his life. The same paper also
brought the news of a 'hit and
run" auto driver who fatally STRUCK
a man and then drove off. By
ISLANDERS. however, secured a taxi
and captured the fellow. Comment
on these cases is unnecessary. The
two boys who gave blood are bene-
factors while the chit and run"
fellow is plain. deliberate murder
er. The first two should be en-
shrined while the other should be
inferred.

Editor Newett of the Ishpeming
Iron Gre editorially comments in
his excellent paper on the ore situa-
ton in the following optimistic bit
of sense. He says, "There is no
occasion for worry concerning our
future supply of iron ore in the
Lake Superior region. When the
cream shah have been skinned off
then there are billions of tons of
lower grade that will be available
What we are more concerned about
at this time is the price of the ore
we are mining, it being about dol
lar a ton too low to give the min
ers a profit commensurate with the
cost of production. In this respect
it is not unlike copper, a metal that
is practically being given away. 1t
may be that both steel and copper
need tariff to permit living price.

Congressman Hawley of Oregon
speaking on the tax question recent
ly said whole mouthful. He said
that taxation is the most brutal
thing in the world. II you don't
pay your taxes along comes the
sheriff and sells your accumuiations
of years. If you do not have the
money to pay your taxes, and lose
everything you have, you get little
or no sympathy from your neigh
bors. Therefore, say, taxation
being so brutal, should rest as
lightly as possible upon the should
ers of the oitizenry."

PUBLISHED EVERY FRIDAY.

The Chinese still persist in cele-
brating holidays by paying their
debts. Instead of sending mission
aries to China to convert the
natives from heathenism, why not
import this pay up custom to this
country to instill into our people
the fundamentals of this holiday
trait.

Odin Halden was on Wednesday
re-appointed as member of the
State Tax Commission for the term
ending January 1881. Mr.. Halden,
formerly auditor of st. Louis county
and recognized as one of the best
county auditors in the state, was

Press to fill the unexpired term of
John B. Sanborn. His many friends
in st. Louis County congratulate
him.

SURE, Marguerite, we make mis-
takes. So does everyone who does
anything. The only people who
make no mistakes are those who do
nothing. Rubbers are put on lead
pencils for such as you and |. 1t
is no crime to make mistakes, if It
was, we all would be criminals. We
learn much from mistakes, the first
being cheap. and should. however,
be valuable lesson. The eXpens-
i've ones are those that follow.
Never make the same mistake twice.

Someone with a keen insight has
defined taxation as follows: Taxa
tion-The process by which money
is collected from the people to pay
the salaries of the men who do the
collecting. The surplus is used to
paw the salaries of the men the
people elect to decide how much
Shall be collected from them"

Keep your eye on Ely. A new

NEST will be at hand when work n
the new hotel is begun. Ely is
o. K, and the people of Ely are
o. X. The industries of Ely are
likewise winter and summer. We
have the finest residence district
and most home owners of any town
of its size in the country and with
the improvement in the business
section now in prospect, Ely will
take no back seat for any small city
in the state. What we do need
however is united spirit of all for
one and one for all in civic affairs.
Let's forget the slogan "Watch Ely

President Coolidge in his Omaha
speech sounded a keynote whose
musical tone sounds sweet to the
taxpayer of the nation. He talked
of a material reduction of the army
and navy expenses and his lnten-
ton to bring this about. Those
high in the army and navy and
those who profit by military and
navy purchases will probably oppose
the program. We have confidence
in the president and feel he will ac-
complish what he sets out to do.

HOUSTON, Oct. 10.-The Trinity

for the first time in the history OF

collegians by the score of 13 to D here

The Owls veer sadly lacking in an
offense to gain, and a defense to out
play the plucky Tiger team.
The breaks came in the even tenor
Of play in the thirdperiod. The first,
netting the Waxlhachie eleven their
first score, came when Captain Man
ming intercepted an Owl pass. Whit.
aker ran 20 yards through the center
Of Rice's line, and successive bucks
carried the oval over. Schley scored
the touchdown. Lowe failed to kick.
The second score followed shortly
when Smith blocked a Rice kick, and
Schley recovered to run As yards for
score. Lowe added a point after
touchdown.
Rice never seriously threatened the
Tiger goal-line. for the plucky Tiger
defense was strong enough to hold. The
Owls started a forward passing game
late in the fourth period to no avail.

Illinois Wins

CHAMPAIGN, H., Oct. 1O-Illi-
nois almost met a Tartar in Butler
today but smothered last-minute
threat and came out on the long end
of 16-to13 score.
Red Grange was his famous self
again. Provided with an Interference
which was lacking in the game against
Nebraska week ago, he swept down
the field for two touchdowns. During
the game he gained 1873 yards, ayerag-
ing fourteen for each time he carried
the ball. w Y.
In the first quarter he caught a
punt on the first bounce, and ran 10
yards, shaking off half a dozen
tacklers, to a touchdown. In the
second quarter, an 11-yard end run
gave him another touchdown. He
Iumbled a few minutes later when
hit on his own 40-yard line, and Paul
recovered for Butler, and raced so
yards for touchdown.
Illinois scored its final three with
Britton's place kick from his 2s-yard
line.
Then Grange left the game, and
Butler forward passed and bucked its
way TO another touchdown, and kicked
goal.
Illinois withheld its forward pass
attack, evidently saving it for Iowa
