MURRAY OUT
after FIGHT
Stuart Murray Resigns at Sixth
District Commissioner; Will
Run for Reelection.

Following a court action which has
kept Stuart Murray, commissioner of
the Sixth District in hot water since
his election two years ago, Mr. Murray
has resigned and the Office will be filled
by appointment of a successor to hold
office until the next general election
fills the same.
Immediately after his resignation, Mr..
Murray notified the commissioners that
he will become candidate for the Office
at the June primaries. The judgment
denying him new trial was received
by County Auditor Bergen and the
auditor Immediately took steps to call
meeting of the district executives who
will choose successor. A majority
vote will be necessary to name the sue
cessor and in case of tie, Harry E.
Boyle, county attorney will cast the de-
Gliding ballot as provided by law.
Mr.. Bergen will organize the meeting
at 1:30 in the afternoon of Tuesday,
May "a, at the court house in Duluth

be elected. 1t is the general opinion
that Victor Essling, mayor of Evelth,
will be chosen as chairman. Mr.. Bor-
gen will probably be elected secretary.
The following communities will have
a voice in naming the successor: Town
ships of Argo, Ault, BaSsett, Biwabik,

MOTOR FACTS
Minnesota Stands Tenth in
Amount Paid for Motor
Licenses.

According to figures compiled by the
u. S. Department of Agriculture, Min
nesota stands fourteenth in number
of motor cars and trucks registered In
1881, tenth in amount paid for motor
vehicle licenses, and eighteenth in
population, state highway department
bulletin reports.
New York leads the list with 2,297, :
249 motor vehicles and license receipts
totaling $41, 1,877,611, California, with
2,043, ,281 motor cars and trucks, ranks
two places behind Minnesota in amount
of license receipts, due to the fact, the
highway department bulletin opines,
that the tax paid on motor vehicles as
personal property is not included in
the license payment totals for that
state, and which would make both the
total receipts and the average cost per
motor vehicle much higher than Mime
sofa.
Wisconsin, Missouri, Iowa, and Min
nesota rank eleventh, twelfth, thir-
teenth and fourteenth, respectively, in
motor vehicle registration, but while
still close enough together to afford
interesting comparisons the standings
are changed as to tatals of receipts from
licenses and in population totals.
Iowa takes first place in the group
in license receipts with total of $12,-
539,613; Wisconsin next with $11 ,724, 1896;
Minnesota third with receipts totaling
$40, ,784 ,845; and Missouri, $10,140, ,429.
These totals place the four states, re-
spectively, in eighth, ninth, tenth and
eleventh places nationally.
Wide variances are indicated in the
matter of population. Missouri stands
tenth with 3,629, ,367; Wisconsin thir-
teenth with total population of $780,
006; Minnesota eighteenth with 1885,
953; and Iowa nineteenth with 2, 2,470, ,939
The average cost for motor vehicle
licenses in Iowa in 1881 was $3.50;
Wisconsin $15.53; Minnesota $14.97;
Missouri $3.50.
Motor vehicle registration totals in
the four states were: Wisconsin 754, ,249;
Missouri 52,805; Iowa 748,438; Mime
sofa 720,401.

Abraham Lincoln pleaded
justice for all in the troublous
times that fell to his lot when
he said; "That some should be
rich shows that others may be-
come rich, and hence it is just
encouragement to industry and
enterprise. Let him who is
houseless not pull down the
house of another, but let him
work diligently and build one
for himself, thus by example
assuming that his own shall be
safe from violence when built. /"
Lincoln evidently had the same
kind of people to contend with
during his time as the presi-
dent has now. Then as now
there were people whom the
world owed a living but they
would not even lift a finger to
collect it.

On This
Occasion
Just few thoughts by the Editor
on things Material and Immaterial.

The Miner has frequently
called attention to the reckless
ness with which local store
truck drivers rushed about the
city and said some day some
thing would happen to slow
them up a bit. Well it did.
One of the boys was up before
Judge Toms last week on the
charge of reckless driving and
paid a fine of $40 and costs.
Since that time the delivery
trucks have lessened their
speed, do not dodge out of the
alleys and cross-walks or
through school zone lanes at
terrifying speed. "Pocketbook"
lessons seem to have better
effect than moral lectures.

$500 reward
MAN-SET fire
Government Offers Reward for
Arrest and Conviction of
Incendiary.

Ten fires set by one man, within a
fire condition on the F1ambeau National
Forest in Wisconsin recently. This is
the word received from Forest Super
visor Harmon at Park Falls, by the
Regional Office in Milwaukee, and, ex-
cept for the promptness with which
the fires were detected by observers and
lookout towers, results might have been
much worse. Very soon after the first
smoke was seen to rise, Federal and
State Fire Wardens were notified, and
in a very short time a second smoke
was seen, then third, and so on until
a total of ten had been counted; and
the incendiary who was responsible for
these fires clearly marked his pro-
gress by the smokes he left behind.
In spite of this fact, he reached high
way before officers could intecept him
and although he has not been appre-
hended very definite search is being
continued.
Characters of this sort, with no re-
gard for property rights or human life,
are entitled to no more consideration
than the racketeer who would shoot
down a rival in cold blood-even less,
for the racketeer who has a financial
or business grudge against his victim
rarely endangers the lives of innocent
bystanders, while the fire bug immedia-
tely puts in jeopardy the lives of in
nocent people, private property and wild
life, and retards the maturity of a crop
of timber sorely needed by the lumber
and pulpwood industries.
The United States Forest Service will
pay not more than $500 and not less
than $100 for information leading to
the arrest and conviction of any person
or persons on the charge of wilfully
and maliciously setting on fire, or
causing to be set on fire, any timber
underbrush or grass upon lands of the
United States within National Forest.
Information about acts of incendiarism
and claims for reward should be for
warded to the local Forest Supervisor
or filed with the Regional Forester in
Milwaukee,
While the number of fires started by
incendiaries is smaller annually than
those caused by carelessness, every
representative citizen should consider
it his duty to do everything possible in
cooperation with the States and Fed
eral Forest Service. in stamping out
this class of trouble-maker.
AS penalty for maliciously starting
fires on lands owned by the United
States, within National Forest, the
offender may face a very heavy fine
in addition to considerable term ir
Federal prison, and Federal officers
will make very possible effort to place
such criminals behind the bars.

Representative Hitchcock hit
on the core of the argument
when he said that no matter
how useless a politically cre-
ated department of government
proves itself, those in the de-
partment can cite several hun
dred reasons why the useless
ness should be continued. The
majority of the reasons, and in
fact nearly all of them, when
boiled down spell salary and
emoluments. Vice President
Dawes at one full swoop dis
located over 5000 from the
public payroll at Washington
whose principal occupation was
as he said, "to go out to lunch. "
Washington still has a surfeit
of this kind who cannot be dis
placed as they are special ap-
pointees of congress. Our own
state has them and every
county, township, school dis
trict and municipality has
them. One out of every seven
of our population is living off
the taxpayer.

In the U. S. bill to balance
the budget it is proposed to cut
out the Saturday half holidays
for Federal employees, costing
the government a gross total
of $9,000,000. Under the rule
that prevails in the larger in
dustrial centers of mo work,
no pay" countless other mil
lions could be cut from the
budget by deducting all holi-
days and sundry other vaca-
tions which the taxpayer with
his nose constantly on the
grindstone, cannot afford to
take but which the government
employees with their horde
first, second and third assist
ants consider a perquisite to
their positions. During the
flush times of peak wages the
taxpayer failed to note these
items. He has his eyes open
at present, however.

Is machinery causing bank
ruptcy of the farmer? A
farm paper over in North
Dakota makes the claim that
the tractor is the cause. 1t
states that the uses of gasoline
driven trucks and ears in the
U. S. in displacement of horses
has meant that 100000 acres
of land that was formerly used
for raising grain to feed horses
has been released to produce
wheat. At ten bushels to the
acre this means 360,000,000
bushels of wheat or a little
more than our present yearly
surplus.
