DOWN timber
Co. I'll on Ely-Buyck Trail
Busy Salvaging Blowdown
Government Timber.

Company No. I'll on the Ely -Buyck
Trail is at the present time salvaging
the blowdown timber in the area north
of Big Lake. The windstorm which
swept down out of the northwest on
July is, 1888, blew down several mil
lion feet of sawtimber trees and smaller
pulpwood and firewood trees, most of
the damaged timber being on lands be-
longing to the Oliver Iron Mining COM
pany and to the State of Minnesota,
says r. u. Harmon, supervisor Of the
Superior National Forest. However,
there were five government for
ties scattered throughout the blowdown
area which suffered from the storm,
and it is estimated that several hundred
thousand board feet of material will be
removed from these descriptions.
The blowdown timber on the govern
ment lands is not being logged with
the primary object of selling the pro-
ducts which may be cut, as it is pro-
posed to utilize most of the timber to
be cut for use in constructing various
improvements within the Superior Ma
tional Forest, says Mr.. Harmon. Some
of the projects for which timber is
being taken out are: cabin logs and
other construction timber for the new
administrative setup at Moose Lake
northeast of Ely; cabin logs and other
timber for the new administrative unit
to be constructed at Crane Lake, piling
caps, and other timber for the hydro
plane dock which is to be constructed
at Ely; bridge material to be used ir
various places on the forest; sawlogs tc
be sawed up during the summer oi
1889 into such products as bridge
planking, construction lumber, etc.
In addition to the products which are
to be taken out for use by the Forest
Service, there is also certain amount
of pulpWood which is being salvaged ano
which will be sold at a later date
There is also a good deal of dead anc
green jack pine, dead tamarack an6
green birch fuelwood which is being
cut up into eight-foot lengths and pileo
along roads near the cutting area There

later. Any party interested in purchas-
ing the fuelwood should contact Ranger

in this city.
In addition to the logging being done
on the government lands, Contractor
H. j. Homer has crew of men Salvag-
ing the Oliver timber in the district

A NelU Fish Story.

Durrie-Leo Ruppert caught a pick
erel in a really odd way recently while
fishing at Lake Shetek. Leo had just
cut hole in the ice to fish when he
saw large pickerel go by his hole
towing a line and pole and he i'm
mediately set out in pursuit. BY watch
ing the pole through the ice and chop
ping holes whenever the fish stopped
to rest, Leo finally managed to grasp
the pole and pull the fish out-a dandy
seven-pound pickerel. And what is more
unusual, the fish was caught on frog
lure but not in the conventional man
ner, as the hook was imbedded in the
fishs tail.

Friend A. V. Rohweder of
Duluth, president of the Min
nesota Safety Council, has been
named by Governor Stassen as
advisor of the state adniinistra-
ton on a voluntary basis. In
addition to asking his services
as advisor, Governor Stassen
also said, 81 would like to have
the cooperation of your COM
mittee, representing as you do
the great number of organiza-
tions that have taken a keen
and independent interest in a
safety program for Minnesota" ="
How times do change as well
as opinions of men. Noting
the efficient work done by Mr..
Rohweder for the past ten or
more years he was named by
the late Governor Olson to head
the safety movement in this
state and at the same time he
was head of the safety division
of the D. M. & l. R. railway
and in both positions he had
made good. Governor Benson
decided over a year ago that
Art could not serve the state
because he was employed by
the railroad interests.
No salary was paid Mr.. Roh-
weder by the state but this did
not make any difference to the
governor. He had to leave and
was replaced by another, one
more to the liking of the politi-
cal party represented by the
governor and to Governor Bell
son in person. Right away Mr..
Rohweder was elected presi-
dent of the Minnesota Safety
Council by the council whose
members hailed from all parts
of the state. The governor was
roundly censored for his act by
the press of the state and other
states who recognized in Mr..
Rohweder an efficient and
hardworking official and not
the ''tool of the steel corpora
tion" as referred to by the gov
ernor in dismissing him from
the post.
Governor Benson received his
walking papers from the elec-
torate at the November cleo
ton, repudiated by one of the
largest votes cast for governor
