James, Mrs. M. o. Aubolee and Mrs.
Geo. Westcott, wife of the editor.

the two horse team. In speaking of
the visit to the mill site, Editor West
colt stated: 1--WE are much pleased
that an enterprise of this kind should
be inaugurated at this time at this
place. 1t shows what faith those who
know most about the range have in
its future"
The steamer Paul was moved over
land from Shagawa lake to Fall lake

Worlds Fair on Oct. 13, drew large
attendance although it rained inces-
sanity. The state was organized and
18th day of october, 1857 Governor
Knute Nelson in speaking on the day
at the Fair, gave facts and figures
showing the growth and Importance
of Minnesota. He stated that in 1850
the population was only 6.077. At the
present time it is no less than 1,450,-
000 In 1860 the assessed value of real
and personal property was $35, 1853, 4o8

we made strides but lumber was pro-
duced in 1893 valued at $17,898, 78O
Mineral resources of the state, espe-
cially iron ore, are of rich, varied
and extensive character. The develop
ment of the mines is still in its in
fancy, but progress has been made
since 1884 In 1892 1885, 465 tons of
ore were mined and shipped, all from
| the Vermilion range. A railroad has
been built to the newly opened Mesaba
range and is supposed the shipments
from the MeSaba will be fully as great
as those from the Vermilion.

turning this week were Joe Soklich,
Mrs. A. J. Fenske, Frank Wagner,
Judge and Mrs. H. Van Blarcom and

ORGANIZING NEW YORK CITY

At the Providence Convention of
our International Union, there was
a great demand by our members
for the organization of the great
Empire City. We had something
like 5000 members there at this
time and now we have over so, 900,
so that the work that was started
then has proven a success. We had
10 top organizers working in New
York, and / wondered why our of
ficers had chosen me, a western
man, for this big job. ] soon found
out. The others knew what tough
job this was going to be and ''duck-
ed it." In my younger days the
tougher the job looked the better
/ liked it. So readily accepted the
opportunity.
After getting my instructions, I
was told that I would be allowed to
appoint eight local people at $40 a
week to aid me. I was also told I
would be the judge, and would have
the appointment or discharge of these
men. e You are on your own," our
general secretary said. Good luck to
YOU"

ing up few members here and there
was not going to have much if any
