The league has handled almost 300
cases involving unfair business prac-

said.
The league. he said. had found that

scores of civic clubs already have en-
dorsed the measure.
The Reforestration Amendment in
itself is no law, the resolution of the
Tree Society pointed out, but is
merely an enabling act to empower
the state legislature to pass legisla-
tion which will help solve Minneso-
ta's forestry problem. Under the
present state constitution, such leg
islation cannot be enacted without
being unconstitutional. With the
passage of the reforestration amend
amendment to the state constitution
the way will be cleared for con-
structive law making. The amend
ment is merely the first step.
Unless the amendment is passed,
the resolution stated, Minnesota
will remain in her present position.

pleted rapidly, her game and wild

BE SURE AND VOTE ON NO. 2
AT TUESDAYS ELECTION.

Every civic organization in Min
nesota is asked to support the refor-
estration amendment which will be
submitted to the voters next Tuesday
as Amendment No. 2, in a resolution
adopted by the Minnesota Tree So
ciety in Mimi apolis last week. At
the same time, Rufus R. Rand, Jr.,
president, warns all organizations to
urge every voter to cast the amend
ment ballot as well as the state bal
lot.
1.-TWO years ago the reforestration
amendment was defeated by only
6,169 votes" Mr. Rand said, 'and
296,767 voters who went to the polls
did not cast any ballot whatsoever
on it. They numbered more than
one third of all the voters who went
to the polls in 1924. 1t was their
apathy regarding one of the most
important questions before the state
that defeated the measure. We must
bend every effort to counteract this
deadly apathy this coming election
day."
Many organizations already are
working on behalf of the reforestra-
ton amendment, Mr.. Rand said.

TRUST FUND BOOSTED
BY ORE ROYALTIES.

The royalties on iron ore shipped
during the third quarter of 1925
from state owned mines will total
$1,365, 900, the largest amount for
this period in the history of the
state, Ray P. Chase state auditor
announced Friday.
The money will be added to the
state pension trust fund and will
bring its total to more than $780,

would yield $50 day, it is esti-

The next largest sum received

ROSSMAN SOUNDS
WARNING NOTE.
L. A. RlOSSMAN, GRAND RAPIDS
EDITOR, TELLS ROTARY CLUB
SOME FACTS ON THE ORE IN.
DUSTRY AND TAXATION.


The Business Methods committee
of the Rotary Club had charge of the
meeting Wednesday evening with
| Chas. Trezona as chairman. L. A.
Rossman of Grand Rapids, editor of
the Herald Review was the speaker
of the evening and he. spoke on THE
Iron Ore Industry" Mr.. Rossman has
made keen study of the industrial
situation as relating to this section
and he brought out facts and figures
in his talk that seemed alarming to
us easy going residents of commun-
ity where conditions of the nature
spoken of were farthest from our
minds.
Ely has not overstepped the nat
ural bounds of expenditures and does
not come under the list of eXtrava-
CANT cities. Expenditures here have
never exceeded, nor come to the fig
ure Of the per capita limit and all ex-
penditures made have been for the
benefit of the people of our city.
While the permanent Improvement
expenditures in the past few
years have seemed samewhat large,
lit must be remembered that the
city is growing and that nothing
of any Importance was attempted
here in the work of city building
until about ten years ago and work
has been done since that should have
been done and spread over the last
thirty years.
His general analysis of the iron
ore situation was true and to the
point. His analysis of the tax sit
uation was astounding and left nuch
food for thought. He showed that
during the last five years the Mime
sofa iron mining industry has paid
in full total of $113, 100000 in
taxes. Occupational taxes, S17,000,-
900; royalty taxes, $3,00O,0O0; ad-
valorem taxes, $93,000,00O. This
total of $4,000, 900 is by strange
coincidence just million dollars
more than the labor and every other
item which enters into the cost of
taking the ore from the ground. The
taxes paid amounted to fourth of
the total value of the ore taken from
the ground.
The address was worthy of repro
duction and the Miner will give it
in full next week and we hope the
reader will digest the facts contained
therein. We are unable to give it
this week as election matters just
now in the limelight are also the
prominent issues before the people.
The ladies of the Presbyterian
church served the dinner Wednesday
and all but three of the members
of the Rotary Club were present. A
new member, John Kapsch, was intro
duced by President Englund and By
ron Carlson.

ANNUAL CHARITY BALL
BY MOTHERS CLUB TONIGHT.

The annual charity ball given by

ishes the music.
As previous affairs given by this
organization have been a social and
financial success, it stands to reason
that this one will follow in the foot
steps of its predecessors.
The Mothers Club is strictly a
charitable institution and every dol
lar invested in a dance ticket or as
a gift is put to the best of uses. If
you do not attend dances invest a
dollar in the best kind of charity by
buying a ticket or handing the Club
a dollar for its charity fund.

legislature power to defer the pay
ment of taxes on this timber until it
is harvested. The land would bear
its burden of taxes the same as now
but the growing timber would be off
the list and furnish an incentive for
the growing of timber crops.
The speaker cited Cloquet as an
example. Here the timber business
is furnishing employment to 1000
people at good wages. With the ter
ritory we have tributary to Ely, sew
eral Cloquets could be maintained
in this near vicinity and this is made
especially possible by the Superior
National Forest where timber cul-
ture and protection is paramount and
which would furnish material for a
steady demand for years to come.
He urged the Ely citizens to go after
some woodworking industries, pulp
mills, etc. to utilize natural timber
assets in this section. He also urged
everyone to come out and vote and
especially to vote on the amendment
which was lost two years ago, not
by contrary vote but by the vote
which failed to mark the amendment.
Several communications were read
and report received from the Com
munity Fair and the Ely Baseball
Club. Owing to the bad weather
during the Community Fair the list
of prizes were not as large as antic-
ipated. DIR. Thompson for the COM
mittee told the club that owing to
the rain the cattle exhibit could not
be held and also that several exhibit
ors were absent on account of the
wet weather. The club voted to
live up to its agreement to make up
the deficiency of the Fair which

also voted to make up the deficiency
in the finances of the Ely Baseball

time to report progress. This COM
mittee is composed of DR.. Newgord,
