or within the vault. The tap of a
tool or the snap of a cutting torch
upon the vault wall or door will in
stantly start the alarm. On the other
hand, no amount of noise made in the
surrounding room, nor the rumbling
of train, nor the vibration of the
building as caused by heavy
trucks or street cars, will sound the
alarm.
The alarm is given by the sounding
of large gong on the outside of the
building. This gong, together with
control instruments, ringing mechan-
ism and ringing battery, is installed
in a heavy steel housing as completely
electrically protected as is the vault
itself, so that it is not possible to get
at the gong to prevent the ringing of
the alarm.
There are many remarkable points
about the completely automatic opera
ton of the system which the officers
and employees of the bank would en-
Joy showing and explaining to any,
one. The system takes care of itself
to an astonishing degree, and may be
said to be automatic in it's guarantee
that the vaults shall be under COM
plete protection during the entire
night, every night.

To GIVE RELIEF
DURING WINTER
COUNTY BOARD WILL BE ABLE
TO PROVIDE FOR 1,240 SETTLERS
AND FARMERS-MUNICI
MUST AID THEIR OWN AREAS.

Approximately 1,240 settlers and
farmers in st. Louis county and their
families living outside of cities, towns,
and villages will need relief during the
winter months, members of the st.
Louis county board informed Governor
Floyd Olson last week. The county
board will be able to provide for the
settlers and farmers, it was announced,
if municipal governments meet the re-
lief problems in their respective areas.
A statewide survey of relief needed
in Minnesota is being made by Gov
ernor Olson with the view of calling
a special session of the legislature, if
conditions warrant such move.
Commissioners Stuart Murray and A.
A. ABBY of the Sixth and Seventh dis
tricts, respectively, said that 500
tracts of land will require aid in each
of the districts while Commissioner
Jacob Pete, Fourth District, informed
the board that at least 100 families viii
require relief in the Ely territories.
The four Duluth commissioners
pointed out that approximately l40
families living near that city will need
assistance.
Commissioner Pete said that out
side of road and bridge projects, prac-
tically no work will be available for
most of the unemployed persons. The
county expects to meet the situation
through its poor relief and road and
bridge funds, the governor was in
formed.

1881, and November "a, 1881, to avoid
confusion.
At A. M, February %, 1882, if un-

THE SOUND WAVE
BURGLAR ALARM
NEW McCLINTOCK BURGLAR SYS-
TEN DEMONSTRATED AT FIRST
STATE BANK SATURDAY-MOST
MODERN ALARM MADE.

Workmen from the o. B. McClintock
Company of Minneapolis, the largest
bank burglar alarm concern in the
world, completed installing the Sound
Wave Burglar Alarm System in the
First State Bank Friday evening and
representative Keefe of the McClin-
took Company demonstrated the OPP
Grafton of the system Saturday be-
tween the hours of 900 A M. and 400
P. M.
All day there was steady stream of
citizens to and from the bank and all
day Mr.. Keefe showed them how the
system operates. Over a thousand
witnessed the demonstrations of this
most modern method of bank protec-
ton With the installation of the
sound wave protection, the First State
Bank is now one of the best burglar
proof banks in the northwest.
The Sound Wave protection is con-
trolled by very finely tuned instru-
ments which, during active hours,
cause an instant alarm at the slightest
noise made upon the vault structure

STATE CONSERVATION COMMISSION
HERE SUNDAY AND MONDAY ON TOUR

the Rabbit plant of the Mesabi Iron
Company where Superintendent Swart
acted as host and showed the party
around the mine and mills. All
present expressed themselves as this
being one of the highlights of the trip
and that the commissioners received
much first hand information on the
benefication of low grade ores. While
the plant has been imperative for
several years, a crew of men are
keeping it in condition of immediate
resumption should the market warrant.
From Rabbit, the two dozen cars of
the party left over Highways 81 and
and then to Orr and International
Falls where night meeting was
scheduled. Commissioner Stewart with
Commissioner R. R. Bailey of Virginia,
the editor of the Miner and RepreSen-
tative Hastings returned to Ely to
further pursue the quest for knowledge
by Commissioner Stewart.
After luncheon at BURNSIDE Lodge,
Dutch" Fuller, pilot of the Scenic
Anyways, accompanied by Herb Kur-
vinen of the firm, made two trips over
the border lake country. Two repre-
SentativeS of the st. Paul Dispatch
and Daily News were taken over the
territory in the morning. In the after
noon, Messrs. Stewart and Bailey were
shown the wonders and masSiveneSs
of the forest and lake section of the
district north of here embraced in the
Superior National Forest and the
Quetico Forest of Canada and the out
lines of the territory in the Superior
Game Reserve was pointed out to
Commissioner Stewart insofar as it was
possible.
All making the trip were favorably
impressed with the idea advanced of
an airplane patrol for the warden's
district around Ely which covers an
area of thousands of square miles.
The matter will be taken up at future
meetings of the Commission and
thoroughly discussed. Only twenty
minutes were used in getting to the
waters of the Canadian border at the
farthest point where by canoe, motor
boat and portage, hours and days
would be necessary. 1t was also the
opinion that planes could be hired
here at nearly half the cost of estab-
fishing a state owned patrol.
The party spent the night following
their Ely visit at International Falls
where more addresses were made at a
banquet in honor of the visiting COM
mittee At this meeting AL, G. Hamel,
formerly of the Superior National
Forest here told the commission how
the timber allotments were made for
cutting of 2O5,OOO,OOO feet of saw tim
Der and 2,423,OOO feet of pulpwood in
fifty-five years on the sustained yield
basis on the part of the government
and that the state can profitably
adopt scientific forest conservation
policy.
Last evening the commission and
members of the party were guests of
the Virginia Chamber of Commerce at
banquet served at the recreational
building dining hall.

All members of the Minnesota Con-
servation Commission arrived in the
city Sunday after having made an in
Spection trip over the Ely-Finland
road where they noted forest conditions
in the Superior National Forest. Sun
day was the first day of a weeks tour
during which the commission was be-
coming acquainted with the mineral,
timber, fish and game and other re-
sources of this section of the state.
The commission accompanied by
several newspaper writers who were
members of the party went to Burnt
side Lodge where Manager Cook and
his efficient forces had prepared most
appetizing dinner to which members
of the Ely Commercial Club and others
had been invited. The party had
stopped for lunch at the National
Forest Lodge and on the trip from
there visited the granite quarry along
the route. One of the members in
formed the Miner that the commission
noted with pleasure the 200 feet of
forest bordering the highway opposite
the quarry in line with the general
provisions of the Shipstead- Newton
bill applying to lake shores, and
warmly commended the granite COM
pany on their foresight in not cutting
the timber between the road and its
property
Before leaving Duluth on the trip
over the North Shore Highway to
Beaver Bay, breakfast was rendered
the party at the Hotel Duluth where
they listened to the request of the
Minnesota Power & Light Company
for permission to raise the levels of
Gabbro and Bald Eagle Lakes for
power purposes at the plant at Win
ton The project calls for the flood
ing of 400 acres of swamp lands owned
by the state. Representative Hastings
of Lake County presented the project
to the commission and said that it
would increase the amount of taxes
the company would pay to Lake
County by $4,000 a year. His con-
tention was backed by Fred Vibert of
the power company who stated that
the project would cost $4,000 or more
when completed.
The fish hatchery at French River
was visited by the party on the way
to Two Harbors where the ore docks
were inspected. At BURNSIDE Lodge
at the dinner meeting on Sunday
evening, the commission listened to A.
w. Nelson on the appointment of
game wardens and to Ray Hoefler,

ELY PROGRAM ON
WCCO TUESDAY
FRANCIS TAMBURITZA ORCHES-
IRA WILL BROADCAST ELY
PROGRAM TUESDAY EVENING
CONCERT AND DANCE TONIGHT.

Franics TamburitZa Orchestra will
be on the air with an Ely program
from the Nicollet Hotel station of
WCCO next Tuesday evening from
$3.50 to 900 o'clock. The program to
tons by the orchestra; short facts per-
tanning to Ely by the announcer and
specialties by the members. This ap-
pearance is being sponsored by the
Ely Commercial Club
The orchestra is receiving praise
from all sections of the country and
wherever they have appeared, return
requests have been receivd. An
addition was given the organization at
the Minneapolis station of WCCO and
so favorably impressed were the
managers that a date for their ap-
pearance featuring an Ely program
was at once arranged.
We may be little sanguine but pre-
dict a bright future for this organi-
zation. 1t is unique inasmuch as there
is not another of it's kind and size in
the United States at the present time.
Besides this feature, their music is of
the better concert variety and their
soloist attracts. Another feature, Gin
the estimation of the Miner, is the
fact that they are Ely products and
everywhere they go Ely is being
favorably advertised. From Mime
apolis, the organization goes to New
York.
Tonight the orchestra will appear in
concert at the Washington Auditorium.
After the concert dance will follow.

tickets to patrons free. Those who

Our recent editorial advocating the
opening of the deer season for a few
days in order to give the man out of
work an opportunity to get himself
and family bit of wild meat, has not
set well with some folks. They object
because they say it will give the hunter
from other parts of the state and out
of the state a chance to hunt for the
sport of the thing. Our suggestion was
that only people out of work and
needing the deer carcass be given a
license to hunt and not issue licenses
indiscriminately. We still believe that
a short open esason would have a
tendency to observe game laws and
make less violators and our suggestion
was made in the interest of law en-
forcement. 1t is a foregone conclusion
that deer will be killed anyway, SO
why not furnish an opportunity to do
so, legally.

In another place in this paper will
be found story relating to the work
of the Red Gross in the burned over
Lake of the Woods district The citi-
zens of that part of the country not
alone subscribe to the work of this
noble organization but wherever a
catastrophe has set its blight, will be
found the Red Gross with its allevia-
ting assistance Several times this
summer have we heard the Red Cross
assailed for not dishing out aid for a
man-made condition of want and
poverty and for which assistance could
not be rendered as the organization
was not formed for such a purpose but
was formed for helping out afflicted
in cataStrophes such as floods, fires,
earthquakes, etc Millions acclaim the
work of the Red Gross as the Greatest
Mother.
