MINING INTERESTS PAY
ELY AND HIBBING TAXES

full the second half of the 1882 real
estate taxes.
We adhere, however, TO our opinion
that mineral properties in st. Louis
county are overvalued for taxation
purposes and that the taxes assessed
against such properties are excessive.
The payment of the taxes mentioned
will prevent our company from be-
coming a formal party to the tax
contest to be undertaken by other
mining companies. We shall. never
theless, participate in such contest to
the fullest extent possible and give
such assistance as we may to the other
companies who are attempting by such
contest to secure reduction of mineral
valuations and taxes"
F. j. Webb, manager for the Re-
public Steel Corporation, spoke similar
ly of the inequality of mineral taxation
and said his company would also con-
test the matter in the courts.

|0uR0WN STORES
| BIRTHDAY SALE
Second Birthday of the Or.
ganization Being Observed
With Big Sale.

Ely Ourown Stores are this week
joining in a red letter sale in honor of
the second birthday of the organization.
Two years ago small group of grocers
at the Head of the Lakes decided to
join forces in a plan of organized
buying and cooperative advertising,
thereby strengthening their position as
owner-operated stores. The idea spread
Throughout northern Minnesota and
is a vital and permanent part of
this territory.
Leading grocer-members have praised
the association, saying it not only
greatly benefits themselves but that it
has been very popular with their Gus
toners. Specials for each week have
been advertised in nine leading news
papers over the signatures of local
members in each town, as well as by
other forms of advertising. During the
past few months series of recipes has
been printed with the items to aid
housewives in economically preparing
their meals. The recipes were fur
nished by Mrs. j. B. Graham, house
hold economist.
Although one of the main benefits of
membership comes from the OPP
portunity of cooperative buying, there
are no restrictions put upon members
in buying. They are free to purchase
their stocks whenever they can to best
advantage. 1t is the policy of the
group, however, to favor Northwest
jobbers and manufacturers as much as
possible. Nationally advertised and
widely known lines are featured.

of victory over the local eleven. In
