Amendment No. I
Should be adopted.

"a serious situation confronts the
State because of the confusion in the
public mind relative to the intent and
purpose of Amendment No. TO be
voted on by the people at the General
Election, November g." is the warning
contained in a recent statement by Mr.
Otto Swanstrom of Duluth, president
of the Minnesota Good Roads aSsoci-
alton, declaring for the passage of the
amendment.
The explanation appearing on the
ballot is not quite clear, it is pointed
out. Instead of allowing roads to be
added to the trunk system, it instead
ratifies those additions made by the
1888 Regular Session of the Legislature
and reinStateS into the Constitution
that, before further additions can be
made, at least 1870 of the new enlarged
system of IL 300 miles must be per-
manently improved.
The last paragraph contained in the
legal publication of the proposed
Amendment clearly sets forth the
meaning. The paragraph reads as fol-
lows:
The purpose and effect Of this
amendment is to ratify and confirm the
establishment of all new routes added
to the trunk highway system by the
1893 legislature, and to give the legis-
lature unrestricted authority to add
new routes to the trunk highway system

total number of the miles of the routes
established by Article Is of the State
Constitution and established by the
legislature acting pursuant thereto
prior to the time this amendment was
proposed. have been constructed and

ON THIS
OCCASION
A Few Observations on Matters
Material and Immaterial by
the Editor.

The Miner is for Ely, first,
last and all the time, and if we
do say it ourself, is the only
paper in the country that gives
a damn for Ely or its people.
We again say for the steenth
time. We will do what we can
to elect the Ely men to the Off
ces to which they were nomin-
ated. First, there is our son,
Alvin C. Schaefer, who is a
candidate for county auditor.
Then we have DR.. ]. E. Thomp-
son, candidate for representa-
tive; Jerry A. Harri for con-
gress in the Eighth District, and
Joseph Veranth, candidate for
county commissioner in the
Fourth District. If Ely does
not stick to its own products,
who will? And what is more,
all are capable of filling the
Offices they seek.
Now that John E. Porthan
has SHE'D his hat in the ring via
the "sticker" route, we will in
clude our old friend in the list
and will say Mr.. Porthan is
another Ely man deserving of
your vote. Efficient and a loyal
Elyite he has been requested by
numerous mass meetings to be-
come a candidate for commits
sioner of this district and op-
pose the regular nominees,
Martin Gunderson and Joseph
Veranth.

Why monkey around with
criminals after they have been
caught and after they have
been identified as the guilty
ones. The surest way to stop
crime and rid the country of
criminals is to get rid of them.
Many criminals are known but
nothing can be done about it
until something happens. Why
not round them up and take
them out of circulation. Then
get rid of all the pardon and
parole boards. Military court
martials have a very convenient
way of getting rid of this class
and a mistake in the guilt OF
innocence seldom happens.
