TWO DROWNED

Swims to Safety.

Thrown into the icy waters of Knife
lake, their boat swamped by waves
during high wind, two Mesaba range
men drowned, while a third occupant
of the boat swan to safety in the first
accident of the current fishing season,
Monday afternoon.
Elmo Aalto, Is, Virginia, and Waino
Hawaii, "a, Hutter, three miles east of
Gilbert, drowned, and Arvid Johnson,
Virginia, saved himself by clinging 10
the boat. The accident occurred in
Knife lake, IS miles northeast of here
on the international boundary, where
the three men had been fishing lake
trout.
According to an account of the ac-
cident related by johnson on his arrival
at the state game and fish headquarters
at Winton, the trio We're fishing from
a row boat TO which was attached an
cupboard motor Johnson was in the
act of cranking the motor when huge
wave washed over the boat partially
filling it and was followed Immediately
by another that completely submerged
the boat. They were far out on the
lake at the time and the three started
swimming to shore, clinging to the
boat. johnson unfastened the motor
during this time and let it sink to the
bottom of the lake. When about 200
feet from shore, the cold water and
exhaustion proved too much for Hawaii
and Aalto and they released their holds
on the boat, sank and never again ap-
peared on the surface.
Johnson said he reached the shore in
a da7ed and unconscious condition and
was unable to move for about two
hours following his ordeal. On par
TALLY regaining his composure, he rowed
the boat seven miles to Bill Berglund's
lodge on Knife lake where he rested
until he had somewhat recovered his
strength and then with Mr.. Berglund
made the IS mile trip to winton ar
irving Tuesday afternoon.
Wednesday morning several dragging
crews, composed of members of the
county sheriff's department, game war
denS, Lake county men and forestry
employees. left for the scene to search
for the bodies.
Aalto is survived by his widow, Helen,
sister of Hawaii, and a 11-months- old
daughter, June, and his father. Erick.
Hawaii is survived by his mother and
father, living near Gilbert, and sister
living near Palo, and the sister, Mrs.

Down in Appleton, Mime
sofa, they are up in arms
against the army of corner
cutters and lawn-path makers"
and say it must be stopped.
After they get it stopped down
there, it would be a good plan
to come to Ely and show us how
it can be done. Here the corner
cutters, when demonstrated
with, emphatically tell you to
build a fence if you don't
want us to shortcut across your
lawn or lot" An Appleton
paper kind of gives a hint as
to the composition of this breed
of pests when it says facetiously
but in all truth: ga survey of
the situation shows that if all
those who scorn sidewalks,
property rights and please"
signs were laid end to end at
the proper depth, the lawn
grass production of which there
has been a shortage in recent
years, would be doubled,

MANY TOURISTS
THIS SUMMER
Arrowhead Association In
quiries Predict a Heavy
Tourist Season.

Minnesota's famous Arrowhead
country is all ready for one of the best
tourist seasons in the history of this
region.
Not since 1929 have there been so
many inquiries concerning roads, re-
sorts and canoe trails in the Arrowhead,
according to s. v. Saxby, executive di-
rector of the Minnesota Arrowhead
association, who expects the tourist
army to reach the 100000 mark by next
fall, equalling the famous years of 1926
to 1928. In addition, he points out that
large number of resort owners opened
on May 1, four weeks earlier than usual,
on account of advance reservations
made by fishing parties and motorists.
One of the reasons for the unusual
interest in the Arrowhead country this
year is the nationwide advertising
given this region at the Century of
Progress exposition at Chicago last
summer. Hundreds of thousands of
visitors at the fair registered at the
Minnesota display and learned about
local attractions, including the last re-
manning virgin wilderness in North
eastern Minnesota, the famous canoe
trails along the border and the modern
luxurious resorts along the forest
bordered lakes and streams
Csaorac IF i,,n1Ii,.;o. f,sOy,, y,roe,,&o I'M,
tourists are being received here daily
from all sections OF the United States
and Canada, while the state tourist
bureau has turned over hundreds of
names of persons, who have requested
information about local resorts, hotels,
highways and fishing streams. The
Outdoor exposition at Chicago last week
again advertised this area to thousands
of visitors, the Arrowhead display rank
ing among the largest and most at
tractive in the coliseum
Resort owners, elated over the nation
wide interest in the Arrowhead country,
have enlarged their lodges, building adj
ditional cabins, installing new recre-
ational features and increasing equip
ment during the past winter. They re-
port spending more than 100000 in
preparation for the 1894 season, which
they believe will be one of the best in
the history of this region.
The Arrowhead association has just
prepared new 1894 map and resort
directory for distribution to prospective
visitors and in answer to inquiries about
the Summer Playground of America"
Mr.. Saxby announced The pamphlet
contains information about tours, side
trips, weekend visits and long drives, as
well as the location OF resorts, roads,
golf courses, and fishing streams.
A survey just completed by Mr.. Saxby
also shows that some twenty-five major
conventions scheduled for Duluth and
towns in the Arrowhead country will
bring approximately $4,000 additional
visitors during the summer months.
I'VE anticipate the greatest tourist
year in our history and we have been
planning all winter for this summer"
added George H Crosby, president of
the Arrowhead association.

Big Hockey Ball

Expecting a crowd of 500 or more
couples at the function, members of the

are making extensive preparations for
the Hockey Ball" which they sponsor
tonight at the Androy Hotel Visitors
from all range towns will attend.
Proceeds of the ball will be used TO
retire part of the $500 deficit of the
Hibbing Hockey Association during the
past season, due to the fact that the
Miners had to play practically all OF
their games away from home.

Arthur Brisbane tells the
story of the municipal bank
ruptcy bill" and its effects, very
conclusively, in his daily
column in which he says: "The
senate has passed, the president
is expected to sign, a municipal
bankruptcy BILL" which would
allow cities that cannot do or
do not want to pay interest or
principal on bonded debts go
through bankruptcy like a
Christian and get rid of debt.
This will relieve some citizens
now taxed to pay interest and
principal and relieve the minds
of grating politicians that have
piled up the local debts. 1t
will not be so pleasant for
gentlemen that preach high
taxes for others and invested
their own money in tax-exempt
securities. Municipal bonds are
tax-exempt securities, and
under the new law they fade
away like the Cheshire cat,

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

Sunday was Mothers Day
and a fitting tribute was paid to
the best friend you ever had.
Letters, telephones and tele-
graph wires carried messages
from loved ones everywhere to
Mothers all over the land.
Flags were flown in her honor,
services were conducted in all
the churches and flowers were
worn, both for the living and
the dead. God could not be
everywhere" said the poet,
therefore he made mothers.

The Graphic Arts code of
which there are about 1900
subdivisions and of which the
newspaper is one is working
most admirably. Chiselers have
no place in the newspaper code
as detection, by reason of pub
licity, makes it imperative that
the code be lived up to. The
newspaper makes its affairs
public and in this differs from
many of the other industrial
codes we could name. Com
pliance officials make the claim
that less chiseling is practiced
among the publishers than with
any other division with which
they have to deal. Publicity
does it.
An addition to the news
paper code has been suggested
by Iowa publishers and the
adoption by General Johnson
would mean much to the small
town publication. The Iowa
addition suggests that the fol-
lowing prices be charged: "For
telling the public that a man is
a successful citizen when every
body knows he is lazy as a
government mule-S2.70. Re-
ferring to a deceased citizen as
one who is mourned by the en-
tire community when we know
that he will only be missed by
the creditors-S10.13. In re-
ferring to some gallivanting
scandal monger female as an
estimable lady when every
business man in town would
rather see the devil coming
$50. Referring to deceased
merchants as progressive citi-
zens," when they never adj
vertised in their life to help
draw trade to town-$1.00."
