TJUO Ely Residents
VIII Cruise Florida
Waters During Winter

While their Ely friends shiver and
chill in the rigorous winters of the
Northwest, Lester Keeney and Toivo
Kuitunen, Jr., manager of the Coop
store at Winton, will bask in the warm
Florida sunshine. Leaving here the
first of the week for Milwaukee and
Chicago by auto and towing trailer
on which was Snugly fastened Lester
Keeney's 16-foot cabin cruiser, MIMI
the two men are bound for the land of
sunshine and oranges.
The cruiser, home-built affair that
would rival many more expensive
craft for trimmings, will be their home
during coming months. 1t is powered
with an cupboard motor and completely
equipped for comfortable living.
A power plant, radio, folding table,
gasoline stove, two hunks, in fact prac-
tically all the luxuries that one would
find in any home will make life on the
cruiser very comfortable. The craft
was built by Keeney with the assistance
of friends.
They will return to Ely in the spring
During Kuitunen's absence, his father,
Toivo Kuitunen, St., will have charge
of the Winton store.

dation of game wardens.
Opposition developed against the reg
ulation by the department for the tax
ing of rabbits and to require licenses for
the taking. The opposition commended
that rabbits should be taken under
small game licenses and that no extra
license should be necessary.
The meeting was held at the Com
munity Center on Thursday evening,
President Louis Champa presiding.
George Hofbauer was accepted as new
member. A number of bills were pre-
sented and allowed.
President Champa gave a brief re-
sumo of the crow shoot held under the
auspices of the Ely Hardware Company,
the number of crows shot and the ex-
pense had in this connection. He re-
ferred to the number of birds shot by
the two leading contenders, Jos. Roth
man, Jr., and Charles Welsh, and that
in connection with this shoot the de-
partment shipped IL Chukar partridges
to this city which were released by
Game Warden Krall on the Fernberg
road. He also stated that there was
every indication that more of these
birds would be shipped here next spring
and asked that every effort be made to
protect them. They hatch between Is
and Is eggs each per year and it is
supposed that in a few years they will
become quite common.
A lunch was served after the meet

Rod and Gun Club
Fauors So License Fee

The Ely Rod & Gun Club went on
record at their last meeting here as be-
ing opposed to the article of the tenta-
tive legislature program to establish
authority for the Conservation depart
ment to determine open and closed sea-
sons for hunting and fishing based on
scientific research and fact finding"
The Club feels that the department
does not set forth how long time a
notice must be given the public prior
to the time of the opening of any sea-
son for taking of any species of fish,
bird or animal It is felt that notice
should be given on opening or closing
any fishing or hunting season.
The members favored the reduction
in the nonresident fishing license fee
from 81 to So for one person; $3.50 for
man and wife and with no license nee
essary for any children or person under
the age of eighteen years and an adj
ditional fee of 81 or 50 for shipping
fish outside of the state.
The club approved the measure and
also made the recommendation that no
license fee be required of any person
of sixteen years or under if accom-
panied by guardian or parent.
Approval was given authorizing the
conservation department to license and
regulate the harvesting of wild rice;
Approval also was given to the de-
partment of conservation to condemn
unsafe boats and canoes for fishing and
hunting purposes upon the recommen-

On This
Occasion
A Few Observations on Matters
Material and Immaterial by
the Editor.

A. V. Rohweder, Duluth, was
elected vice president for local
councils of the National Safety
Council last week in Chicago.
A. V. was the chairman of the
Minnesota Council for several
years and was giving his time
to the state free, while at the
same time he was holding the
position as safety supervisor for
the Duluth, Missabe & Nor
thern railroad. Governor Ben
son terminated the position he
held with the state safety de-
partment, without pay, because
as he stated Rohweder "is a
tool of the corporation" and
then filled the place with one
of the faithful of his own poll
teal party to whom salary
was paid.

To Divide Money Equally
Between Superior and
Chippewa Forests.
$4,485,6OO FOR ROADS
To Build 80 Miles of Roads
and Spend $4,000 Per
Year in Superior.

Forest service officials in Washington
on Friday announced a 1O-year pro-
gram of building highways, truck roads
and foot trails in the Superior National
Forest and the Chippewa National
Forest at a cost of IS, 853, 300.
Altogether the government expects to
spend a half billion dollars perfecting
its highway and trails system in ma
tional forests as reported by the ASsoci-
ated Press. This is approximately
Sl00OO0OOO more than the amount
spent in the past by the service in its
road building work.
The S8853 300 allocated to the two
northern Minnesota forests will be di-
viGe6 about equally between them, it
was indicated by R. c. SlyeS executive
assistant to Ray U. Harmon, supervisor
of the Superior National Forest, when
he spoke Of the government program
S4,485 800 Of the total expenditure will
be for major highway building and Mr.
Slye said that this fund goes to counties
who undertake the work for the govern
ment. Counties build all forest roads
where the cost exceeds $1,000 per mile.
The ALLEGATION for truck roads totals
81 ,267, 400 while the fund for trails and
portages amounts to 100000.
The Office in Duluth has announced
that a long range program for road
and trail construction has been pre-
pared by the Superior including 40 or
so miles of truck highways a year.
This has involved an expenditure of
about $4,000 to $4,000 a year The
new annual expenditure on the basis of
the proposed long range program will
be $4,000 to $4,000.

Bear Season Also Set For
November 1926 by
Commission.
COUNTIES ARE NAMED
st. Louis, Lake, and Cook
Among Those Listed
For Hunting.

Dates for the 1888 deer season were
announced by the state conservation
commission and Governor Benson at
the state capitol on Friday.
The deer season was set for November
Is to November IS, both dates inclusive,
and bear season was named for the
same dates.
The deer and bear season was an
nounced by the state game and fish
department for the following counties:
All of Cook, Lake, ST. Louis, Koo-
chiching, Itasca, Lake of the Woods,
Beltrami, Clearwater, Hubbard and
Roseau counties.
Portions of KittSon, Marshall, Pen
nington, Red Lake, Polk, Mahnomen
and Becker counties, lying east of the
Minneapolis, st. Paul & Sault Ste.
Marie railway line from the northern
boundary of Kittson county to the
southern boundary of Becker county.
That portion of Cas- county lying
north of the line between townships 1873
and 1879; that portion of Aitkin county
north of the following line starting at
the west boundary of Aitkin county on
the line between townships 40 and so,
thence eastward to the M. ST. P. &
Sault Ste. Marie railway, thence along
the railway to the east boundary of
Aitkin county
That portion of Carlton county lying
north and east of the following line:
Starting at the west boundary of Carl
ton county at the above railway line,
thence to the village of Moose Lake,
along trunk highway No. 81 to the
southern boundary of Carlton county
and all that portion of Pine county ly-
ing east of trunk highway No. 81.
Game wardens announce that the
deer population is large and that an
open season is dvisable in view of this
fact. The state conservation department
feel that the season opened last year
in an off year, was beneficial to the
deer population as the herds were be-
coming so large as to become a problem
as to the matter of feed in many Sec
lions.
Many SportSmen in this section are
of the opinion that the opening of the
season last year was a mistake and that
devastating inrods were made on the
herds for this regular years shooting.
The sportsmen, however, are not unani-
nous in this opinion and arguments in
the premises are varied.
The crop of bear, however. are con-
ceded to be ample to provide an open
season. The bear is a destructive ami
NAL and persists in breaking into cabins
and eating the campers and settlers
supply of hams, bacon and other neces-
stiles and destroying property. 1t is
said that one popularity of a bear is
the fact that he never goes out the
same way he breaks in, always making
a new exit when leaving.
