NATURE WILL
CUT deer HERD
DIR. Thaddeus Surber Thinks
Nature Will Equalize the
Deer Surplus.

Nature, which has permitted deer
in the north woods to increase almost
to a point superabundance by re-
ducing numbers of enemy animals, may
soon replace the hunter to cut down
herds.
DR.. Thaddeus Surber, propagation
director of the state game and fish di-
vision, explained the chain Of events
responsible for the increase in deer.
State game laws provide closed
season on the animals this fall
A disease, either tularemia or some
thing very similar, he said, attacked
rabbits and cartridges, thus robbing
timber wolves Of their food supply
"I don't think there are now more
than fifteen timber wolves in the en-
tire state" he said They either
moved or starved.
with wolves their principal enemy,
out of the way, deer increased rapidly
in spite of the kill of thousands by
hunters last fall and it is possible
nature will take some steps to prevent
deer from becoming too numerous"
DR.. Surber said partridges are max
ing a comeback and will probably be
present in sufficient numbers for
another open season this year.

Mine Accident Record.

Prevention of accidents in metal
mining in Minnesota reached higher
degree of attainment in 1882 than in
any year for which statistics are avail
able. except 1881, according to a re-
port issued this week by the bureau of
mines.
For accidents causing non-fatal in
juries, st. Louis county had the lowest
rate in the state although it was re-
sponsible for about two-thirds Of all
mining done in the state in 1882.
The report showed that the so mines
which operated employed 1.05l men
underground, 1,257 in open cut mining
and 735 on surface work The men
worked an average Of l94 days or 1,783
hours during the year with q fatality
rate of 032 and a non-fatal rate Of
l4.O6 per million man hours of ex-
posure.
Crow Wing and Itasca counties
showed no fatalities but two men were
killed in st. Louis county.

ELY MOOSE WIN
FROM NIT. IRON
Locals Edge Out Visitors In
Twelve Inning Battle Here
independence Day.

In a game packed full of good
play, the Ely Moose and Mountain
Iron baseball teams played a twelve
inning contest here the Fourth Of July
before reaching a decision. The
locals came through in the last of the
18th frame to count run, winning by
score of 8 and S.
The teams played scoreless ball for
five innings and then Mountain Iron
punched hits coupled with several
errors to score three runs. They added
one more counter in the seventh to
lead 4 TO 0. Staging an uprising in
the seventh the Ely team tied the
count with some solid hitting. At
the end of the ninth the count was
at four all and the game went into
extra innings. The tenth was score
less but the visitors scored one in
the eleventh frame on a two base hit
and a single. The one run lead
looked big enough to win inasmuch as
both teams were playing good ball in
the field and the pitchers were stingy
with hits. With two down in Ely's half
of the eleventh, Roman, who replaced
Ballas in the right field in the 9th
inning, came to bat and lifted a
homerun over the right centerfield
wall for the run that again tied up the
game Mountain Iron failed to score
in their half of the 18th. Romness,
first up for Ely in the 18th, slammed
out two Dagger and he scored on
Gorshe's ringing two base hit into the
centerfield
Harri pitched the entire game for
the locals allowing nine hits and
striking out Is. Kervola started on
the mound for Mountain Iron but was
relieved by Kirby in the seventh Ker-
ola allowed six hits, Kirby five.
Romnes, local third sacker, was the
hitting star of the game getting four
hits in six appearances at the plate;
two of the hits were two-baggers.
Batteries for Mountain Iron were
Kerola, Kirby and Grivich; Ely. Harri
and j. Deyak. Umpires, Ike Anderson
and John Prola.
The Ely Moose baseball team de-
feated the Company 1720 c. G. G.
team Sunday with score of is to 8
The locals made only nine solid hits
but were helped along when the 1720
aggregation made fourteen errors in
the field. Roman and Ballas divided
the pitching duties for Ely and be-
tween the two were nicked for only
3 safeties. L Deyak of the locals led
the batters with three hits. Gorshe hit
home run for Ely.

DR.. Thaddeus Surber, super
intendent of the state game
and fish commission, probably
knew what he was talking
about when he stated that he
thought there were not more
than fifteen timber wolves in
the entire state. In talking to
some of the wardens in this
section of the country, they
seem to think this a mistake
as from five to eight of this
class of vermin have been
found in many groups in their
travels through the country
and that packs of these animals
are still playing havoc with the
deer herds. Now that rabbits
and partridge have come back
in large numbers, the impress
sion seems to prevail that the
deer are not being molested as
much as formerly and that the
wolves are paying more at
tention to the easier prey.

DEPOSITORS
Glass-Steagull Bank Reform

Capital Stock Tax
To Be Collected.

The attention Of taxpayers of the
State of Minnesota is called to the
various new taxes levied by the Ma
tional Industrial Recovery Act and,
according to L. NJ. Willcuts, Collector
of Internal Revenue, ST. Paul, one of
the most important of these is the
Capital Stock Tax.
Mr.. Willcuts has received from
Washington, D. c., information to the
effect that the forms for the returns
of the Capital Stock Tax and the
necessary instructions applicable there
TO are in course of preparation and
are to be made available at the earliest
practicable moment.
This tax, which is levied under Sec
ton 215 CAD of the National Indus
trial Recovery Act, imposes upon every
domestic corporation an excise tax of
sl00 for each 81 10000 of the adjusted
declared value of its capital stock.
The first taxable period during which
the tax will be effective ends June
30, 1888, and every corporation must
file return, under oath, which viii
disclose the adjusted declared value of
its capital stock Such returns, ae-
cording to law, are required to be
filed and the tax shown to be due
thereon paid not later than July 81,
1888. In view, however, of the late
passage of the Act the Commissioner
of Internal Revenue has granted a
ov+cr,c;0v, - -
81, 1888 to file the required returns
and pay tax for the period ending
June 80, 1888.
Mr.. Willcuts' force is busy at the
present time doing that part of the
preliminary work looking toward plac-
ing the forms and necessary instruc-
tions with as little delay as is pos
sible.
The Internal Revenue Office is being
swamped with inquiries relative to the
Excise Tax imposed upon dividends by
Section 213 (a) of the National In
dustrial Recovery Act, and the Col
lector of Internal Revenue calls par
ticular attention to the fact that this
tax is applicable to dividends declared
after midnight, June Is, 1888
This tax is imposed upon the re-
ceipt of dividends Gequired to be in
Guided in the gross income of the
recipient under the provisions of the
Revenue Act of 1892 by any person
other than a domestic corporation.
The tax is at the rate of per cent
and is to be deducted and withheld
from payment of dividends by the
payor corporation on or before tbs
last day of the month following thai
in which payment of any dividend i:
made.
Mr.. Willcuts anticipates the early
receipt from Washington, D. C. of tbs
appropriate blank forms which win b
required, as well as specific instruction.
with regard TO the preparation anc
filing of such returns.
