tons, was in the city Sunday and
Monday and visited with friends and
the property he owns in 63-9 and 10.
He left Ely about thirty years ago
and since that time has spent IA years
in Alaska where he was engaged in
the freighting business. He is now a
resident of Miami and although nearly
20 years of age, appears like man or
As. He was schoolmate of the editor
back in Wisconsin in our very much
younger years and we were pleased to
again greet him.
Among other patents controlled by
Mr.. Cleveland, is an all-steel tie which
is creating considerable enthusiasm
among railroad officials who feel that
something of this kind will be needed
soon owing to the scarcity of wood
ties and are lending him every assist
ance towards financing company for
their manufacture. His visit to the
mining property he holds along the
Ely Fernberg trail was to make ar
rangements for leasing to a company

D. N. & n. LEASE
EFFECTIVE TO-DAY

The lease of the Duluth & Iron
Range to the Duluth, Missabe &
Northern became effective at 1901
this morning, January 10. The Inter
state Commerce Commission recently

80 year lease at an annual rental of
$1,200,000.
In announcing the new order the
ad in another column will give some
information. The new order will make
a rate reduction of from 10 to 80 per
cent on all freight matters between
range points and Ely, where shipments
are made over the Missabe and the
Iron Range. No reduction has been
announced on through freight from
Duluth to Ely.
This will amount to considerable in
the shipment of timber products and
freight originating on the two ranges
destined for the two range points.
In another place will also be found

hour of arrival and departure Of all
trains carrying passengers.

IMPORTANCE OF
GOOD HOUSEKEEPING

In these days of cleanup campaigns
special emphaSss is being placed upon
the importance Of good housekeeping
as an element in fire hazard. A clean
house seldom burns, and once the in
f1amable rubbish has been cleared out
the important thing is to keep it clean.
Large industrial and mercantile eS-
Establishments of enduring success make
good housekeeping an ESSENTIAL part OF
their business policy. A clean shop
or store attracts the right type of en-
ployee and encourages good work.
NeatneSS in and around an establish
ment makes favorable impression
and creates good public opinion, which
has distinct advertising value.
Most important of all, good house,
keeping prevents fires Blazes start
easily from spontaneous ignition OF
oily rags carelessly thrown in a corner.
They spread rapidly through dust
covered debris under benches, where
water from SpTinklers cannot reach.
Meanwhile employees lose valuable
time trying to reach small hose lines
and hand extinguishers hidden behind
behind piles of stock. The stage is
then set for a substantial fire loss and
for expensive and announcement IN
terruption of business, for which no
insurance policy can fully indemnify.
A clean and orderly plant is the only
preventive for this kind of fire.
Waste cans take care of refuse
which might otherwise be thrown In
a corner. These cans should be emp
tied daily, before closing time. The
best type is of sheet metal. 1t has
a self closing tightly fitting cover,
and legs which raise it above the floor.
Fire igniting spontaneously in a con-
tainer of this kind is stifled at birth,
while in wooden crate or barrel it
will burn freely unless promptly ex-
tinguished In like manner metal
lockers are safer than those of wood
Oil soaked floors are expensive be-
cause wasted oil costs money. Guards
and pans to catch the drippings al
machines save expense, improve work.

hazard.
Because the first interest of en-
ployees is to get their regular work
done, sweepers are commonly assigned
to the task of keeping the premises
clean. They have real work to do, an

ployee. When required to cover too

HERE'S ONE WAY TO SAVE
A COUPLE OF DOLLARS.

When you get your 1880 automobile
tags, fasten them securely in place
where they will be clearly visible at
all times, and where they will not be
easily knocked off or defaced. This
advice, in higway bulletin, may save
you $500, which is the cost of pair
of duplicate plates.
With the full quota of 35 State
Highway patrolmen ready to go on the
roads early in the spring, the law re-
quiring every car or truck shall have
plates plainly visible, front and rear,
will be more strictly enforced than in
the past. Cars with one plate missing
or badly defaced will be stopped and
the owners given a limited time to
get duplicates. Cars with plates at
tached in places where they are
partly or wholly covered by bumpers,
luggage or freight or plates attached
to swinging end gates, so they are not
visible, will be stopped and the drivers
required to change the load or move
the plates so they will be visible
Truck owners often have plates
damaged, broken or entirely removed
in the loading and unloading of the
load. BY giving a little study to the
proper location of tags, this can usu-
ally be avoided and the owner saved
the expense of getting duplicates and
the trouble of being stopped by the
patrolmen

MILEAGE Of OPEN
ROAD INCREASING

Nearly $4,000 miles of roads in Min
neSota will be kept open this winter
according to information collected by
the Minnesota Highway department
In addition to the 1000 mile trunk
highway system, which the state is
keeping open, the counties are pre-
pared to keep nearly 10000 miles of
state aid, county and town roads free
of snow.
Eighty-three of the eighty-seven
counties are making some effort to
keep the secondary roads open this
winter. Four counties are using no
snow fence or plows to protect their
roads from drifts Seventeen counties
have erected more or less snow fence
but have made no arrangements to
pillow any of their roads Sixty-six
counties are using both snow fence
and plows and are prepared to keep
all or a part of their county roads
open.
The counties have purchased and
erected a total of 1900 miles of snow
fence, according to the reports. The
state owns 672 miles of snow fence,
making a total of 1872 miles of this
type of protection.
The mileage of secondary roads to
be plowed represents a considerable
increase over last winter when 1880
miles were plowed part or all of the
time by the counties Several Counties
this winter reported that they had the
same number of miles on their plow-
ing schedule, but they had increased
their equipment and hoped to open
the roads more promptly after snow
storms.
The reports show that the counties
own and operate considerable equip
ment, including eight rotary plows
40 truck plows, IS tractor plows, 81
crawler type tractors with plows and
four power graders.
ST. Louis county has the largest mil
cage of roads on the snow blowing
schedule, $500. Among the counties
of smaller area Todd heads the list
with $50 miles to be kept open and
ChiSago is a close second with 635
miles on the program. Hennepin with
600 miles to be kept open comes next.
None of these figures include the trunk
route mileages in the county
The State Highway department es-
Inmates that fully two-thirds of the
people of the state live in cities and
villages on trunk highways or on
farms within mile of trunk route.
With the snow blowing done by the
counties, probably ninety per cent OF
the people will have access to an open
road in winter.
