Ely, Minnesota, Feb. z, 1888
To the Business Men of Ely:
Gentlemen: We, your special COM
mittee, hereby make our recommend
atoms 10 you. We are all cognizant Of
the fact that the City Council, in view
Of the present financial conditions Of
the city, have made and are intending
to make cuts in salaries and wages Of
the city officers and employees. It
appears that the salaries of the city
officers have been decreased It also
appears that the City Council has had
in mind a reduction of the common
labor wage scale to point where said
scale will be more in keeping with that
paid by the mining industries. It ap-
pears that the City Council has had in
mind reducing the common scale to
45c per hour, or $3.50 per hour day.
We recommend to you that you go on
record as being in favor of the City
Councils program of January 30th, 1888.

FOREST OFFICE
Superior National Forest Office
to be Moved to Duluth
April 1st.

Instructions just issued by Regional
Forester E. w. Tinker, of the United
States Forest Service, Milwaukee, will
result in the moving of the Office of the
Forest Supervisor, Superior National
Forest, from here to Duluth, effective
April 1st.
According to Mr.. Tinker, the move
is being made for two reasons: first,
because of curtailed appropriations it
is necessary in the interests of economy
that quarters be obtained in a Federal
building. Secondly, the need has long
been felt to make the office of the Su-
perior National Forest more accessible
to the general public and particularly
to people living on the North Shore.
The Office of the Forest Supervisor
does very large business with timber
operators, land owners, summer home
owners, and recreationists. To these
people Duluth viii be much more &C
cessible, being metropolis, railroad
center and key to much of the travel
into the Arrowhead region.

been maintained in Duluth where &C.
tivities in connection with the purchase
of land were centered. According tc
the Regional Forester, during the winter
it was frequently necessary for officers
travelling from Ely to go by way Cd
Duluth to reach the North Shore, which
caused inordinate expenditure of time
and travel
Office quarters for the Supervisor ano
his staff have been made available II
the Federal building, with saving OF
the cost of rent necessary in Ely.
A headquarters for Rangers viii bt
maintained here and, under the plan.
Of the Forest service, a large warehouse
VIII be constructed here this spring.
The Ely miner. [volume] (Ely, Minn.) 1895-1986, 1933-02-10

Does not always work out as
anticipated. The State of Min
nesota erected an office build
ing to save rents which ag-
gregated about 100000. The
building and grounds it stands
on cost the state $500, 1000.
Now comes the news that
$170,9S0 will be required for
maintenance of the new build
ing for the next two years.
This is only an estimate and
may be much higher than that.
Where the economy comes in
is hard to see. Of course, the
state has the building and st.
Paul has the pleasure of having
it built where the city wanted
it. Why bring that up now?

BUSINESS MEN
Meet COUNCIL
Wage Schedule as Made by
Council Upheld by Local
Business Men.

On the last of the month the City
Council adopted wage schedule for
city officials and appointees. The sched-
ule called for reduction of from 10
to Is per cent in some instances and
slight raise in others.
The cut was made in the interests OF
economy and TO put the city back on a
paying basis. It was the impression
that with these Slashes in official salar-
les and wage scale for common labor
as near as possible to the scale
paid by the industries and heavy tax
payers of the city that warrants would
again become negotiable and prospects
for everybody improved
In consequence of this cut and the
discussion created, Mayor Harri called
meeting of business men at the City
Hall on Monday afternoon when the
subject was to be discussed A large
number were in attendance and as a
result the gathering named a special
committee from among their number
consisting Of Oscar Freidsburg, j. A.
Rothman, A. j. McMahan, Chas. Smith.
Thos. Harri, Dan Bohinc, John Rikhus
and Frank Veranth, Jr, to look into
matters and make recommendations to
the organization and these to the coun-
Gil the following night at the regular
meeting.
The special committee met and their
report as made explains itself. The
council is very much pleased with the
interest shown by the business men Of
city in the affairs of the city. The city
fathers have had many hard nuts to
crack during the past year and the
report unfolding their action to ct the
city back on sure footing and a balanc-
ing of the budget meets with their
approval. With the taxpayers of the
city taking an interest in the affairs,
a spirit of cooperation is shown that IS
bound to prove of untold benefit.
The business organization will be
made permanent at a meeting called for
Monday evening and viii be on hand TO
meet with the council and confer with
them on knotty problems. This is des-
tined to prove of help to the men
chosen to transact city business and
the move is warmly commended by
the council.
The special committee report was
made to the business mems meeting ON
Tuesday evening at TOO o'clock and the
same report was later submitted to the
council, accepted and recorded in the
minutes of the meeting. The council
was wrestling with proposition to
keep the expenditures down to basis
of $4,000 month and the salary re-
ductions promised to do this. The re-
port of the committee was as follows:
