as cities maintaining tourist camps
can testify and it is hoped that the
practical application of the slogan
will be adopted In this wooded
country where there are hundreds Of
cabins scattered about the banks of
the lakes and forest the slogan should
become popular automatically and if
not in this manner, then by the use
of the shotgun. 1t should be drilled
into everybody in some manner and
the depredations on other peoples
property stopped. No one objects
to the use of his cabin and for this
reason the larger number are left
unlocked. In too many instances,
those using these summer homes or
cabins seem to think that to carry off
the stove and dishes, burn up the fur
niture and roof, land in some cases
the floor or the entire cabin) is their
perogative, as long as the owner is
not present. Otherwise sane and
safe citizens make this mistake. It
was only a few months ago that two
Duluth men at the Halfway, broke
out window and door of a cabin
to get in and then broke out another
door and lock to get out. For people
of this kind, it will take more than
a slogan to touch their spot of gen.
eral decency. A heavy fine coupled
with a term in the pen would cause
them Ito think. Housebreakers are
be they in the city or
the country.

Now that the supreme court has
decided that the Eveleth city officials
who spent several dollars for sports
in our neighboring city for the graft
fication of the balance of the citizens,
must pay back into the treasury the
sums So spent, it is hoped that tran
guilty will prevail and the charming
city will proceed on it's climb up
wards. Editor Wills of the Clarion
says everyone is extremely tired OF
this nagging and internal strife and
when the city is freed from litigation
which has held it in its grip since
1922. peace and quietness will pre-
vail. From, this distance, 1t looks
very much as if this decision is rub
bling it into Mayor Essling and his
council in asking them to shoulder
all the finances. As long as the cit
liens, including the clergy, were sat
isfied with the expenditures, it IS
up to them to help out in the settle
ment. Because a man is elected to
an office, paying practically no salary
and he does what THE constituents
expect him to do, is no sign that he
is any worse than his constituents.
Why the goat stuff?

The Ten Thousand Lakes of Min
nesota lost one of it's numbers last
week and now has only 5000. Bass
Lake, north of this city, disappeared
off the map in one night and now
only a dry rocky lake bed greets the
eve. Bass Lake was a necessary
link in the waterway leading to the
north and its disappearance makes it
hard to reach the Crooked Lake. dis
trict from BURNSIDE and connecting
waters. Steps should at once be
taken to replace the dam between
Bass and Low lakes in order that this
waterway may be maintained and
Also to assist the owners of shore
line property adjoining the drained
lake bed. The lumber company that
made the cut through the ground DIV
iding the two lakes and which built
the sluice-way is responsible for the
loss of the lake. When the lumber
cut was finished and the logs tioated,
no further attention was paid to the
sluic way and the constant action
of the water undermined the dam.
Bass Lake has an elevation of about
so feet over Low Lake and when the
slight dam in the cut gave cut, the
water from Bass rushed into Low
lake and then north, leaving space
some two miles long by half mile
wide barren waste besides running
one of the best black bass lakes in
the country. If. at all possible. the
company should be forced to replace
tho do,,, opd tho pr0noT. authorities
should see that this was done.

In all justice to the cites and towns
in the Arrowhead Country, the
name Arrowhead" should not be
used for any city, postoffice or dis
trict in the territory embraced in
the Minnesota Arrowhead Country.
The organization of a new townsite
in Cook County and the remaining of
the Brule river at this point, the Ar
rowhead, as announced in the papers
Monday, brought on a discussion al
the meeting of the Ely Commercial
Club Tuesday evening. 1t was the
opinion Of the large number present
that the use of the name in this man.
ner would defeat the objects of the
advertising program of the North
eastern Minnesota Civic and Com
merce Association to which all the
cities and towns in THE, district have
donated their quota of the $4,000
fund for publicity and other work of
the Association, and make it a purely
personal affair working on the adver-
Using already done. When the at
tempt was made "a few weeks ago to
designate State Highway No. / as the
Arrowhead Frail", the proposition
was voted down as scheme which
would rebound to a particular section
and not 20 the whole. This last move
seems harder to take than the first
Since THE news of the new town,
Arrowhead" has been broadcaSted,
several of the range and other COM
munities have been taking notice.
All seem to be of the opinion that,
while it is within the province OF
the promoters to do this, is is emil
nently unfair to use the name. Mr.
Thos. Merritt of Duluth an ardent
Arrowhead booster is given as the
man behind the move to organize and
name the new town. We believe.
that if approached, Mr.. Merritt will
see the affair as it is looked at an
the other part of the great Arrow
head Country, and will use another
name for his new townsite.

The farmer certainly balled up the

The farmer certainly balled up the
road program in the last session of
the legislature and in the burst of
of economy let loose boomerang
which hit the farmer as we'll as the
ordinary motorist right in the solar
plexus. Two dollars was saved on
auto license fees to the motorist and
the taxpayer was saved the cost of
road patrolmen. Poor roads will cost
every motorist more than twenty dol
lars year but the granger legis-
lature could not see. this, their vision
being obscured by the two large silver
dollars saved on the license fee. The
lack of patrolmen on the heavily trav-
eled roads will cost many lives, but,
what is that compared to the few
dollars saved to US taxpayers and
which will be needed later to compel
better sires for horses, cattle and
hogs-not people as the loss Of the
educational deficiency bill shows.

An American lumberman has been
invited to Finland to make survey
of the forests of that country with a
view of exporting lumber to this
country. Despite the fact that Fin
land is the largest exporter of lumber
in the world outside of the United
States and Canada, they are teaching
us something says the Duluth News
Tribune. Instead of wasting her
natural resources and Giving eff her
capital" Finland, in the matter of
timber at least, is cutting less than
her annual crop. 1t is estimated that
when certain improvements in her
present forestry methods are made,
Finland will be able to increase her
annual cut by SO per cent and still
not reduce the available supply of
timber.

Psychologists tell US that after a

One man told US some me ago
that the Miner should cut out the
ancient stuff and give more up-to-
date news. He had reference to the
Twenty Year Ago" matter. The
man also told us that he would, as
well as others, appreciate more police
news. We have tried for years to
withhold the errors of human nature
from public gaze and feel that the
reputation of the city is not enhanced
by this class of news. The father of
this same fellow we speak of is the
writer of the above letter. We will
resume the column requested.

Wouldn't is be a pleasure to see
at the end of a rope, human being
built of the stuff that murders a man
or woman, chops the body into bits
and throws them from moving auto
or truck to the side of the road?
Such case is now being investigated
by the authorities. Pieces of human
remains have been picked up along
side the Miller Trunk road near Can
yon. 1t is the opinion that the re-
mains are those of a man between
26 and 80 years of age. Imagine a
human doing such thing?
