It Is Reported From Duluth That the Itasca Road Will Push North. é The oft repeated story that the Itasca Logging road out of Deer aaa is about tobe extended north- ward to Grand Falls and on to Can- adian line is again reported by the News Tribune of Duluth. That pa- per says: ** Information of a reliable charact- er reached Duluth to the effect that the Itasca Logging company, by way of keeping up with the procession, will this summer extend its lines from its present terminus to Grand Falls, The country through which thé pro- posed road will run contains a wealth of timber, which under present con- ditions is largely valueless. ‘The Itasca Logging company owns a large amount of timber in” the territory mentioned and should the plans for the extension prove successful it is predicted that the company will carry on unusually extensive timber oper- ationssthere next winter. Another well authenticated rumor is that in the event that the Itasca Logging company road is extended to Grand Falls, it will ultimately be pushed to Koochiching. A well known railrood man who has been looking into the situation considerably of late and who is as well posted as any man in Northern Minnesota, gave it as his opinion that the extension to the border line would unquestionably mean the discontinuance of the Minnesota and International from making any extension beyond its pre sent terminal, Black Duck. It ig said that the extensiun ofsthe logging company road would necessitate the laying of only 30 or 40 miles of rails, as the line is already extended 30 miles beyond Deer River in the dir- ection of Koochiching. The com pletion of this line to the internation- al boundry would be of inestimable benefit to Duluth, as it would open up a territory which would necessari- ly look to Duluth as a base of sup- plies, and it is likely that a large number of lively young towns would spring up at intervals, supported mainly by the logging and farming country, said to be excelled nowhere, im the-state, and-a-railroad seeinets be the thing necessary to make ita rich contributor to the wealth of Northern Minnesota. Camps Quarantined. Last Saturday night about 10 0’ciock County Health Officer Dr. Gilbert was aroused from his peaceful slu m- bers by a woodsman who wanted to learn whether he was afilicted with smallpox or not. The doctor examin- ed his visitor and found that it was a genuine case of smallpox. The man’s name is Oscar Johnson. He had been working in M. Calahan’s cadar camp on the south side of Leighton lake. He was brought to Cohasset and from there he walked to Grand Rapids to enter the pest house in case his sickness was of a cyntage- ous nature. Dr. Gilbert directed him to’ that institution, where he went immediately. On Monday the health officer quarantined Calahan’s camp. Melyin Forbes also has small pox in Matt Lalla’s camp where he is quarantined. The iquarantine ap- all those who were in the camp when the officer posted the notices and Dr. Gilbert is in a quandry as to what to do in case the camp should “break.” After pondering a mument the doctor said, in his usual dicisive manner: ‘Well, I'll meet the situation when it comes—that’s all.” Charged With Perjury. Fdward L, Anderson, of Barnum, Minn., is under arrest in Duluth, charged with perjury. He is alleged to have sworn falsely as to improve- ments on a homestead to which he was trying tosecure a patent, An- derson was arraigned before United States Court Commissioner Pressnell, but waived examination and was bound over to the next United States grand jury. Bail was fixed at © $1,000 and furnished by the prisinor’s father, Andrew Anderson and H. H. Hawkins of Duluth. On Dee. 27, 1889, at Carltoo, Anderson, in suppcrt of his claim, and for the purpose of proving up and obtain- ing a patient, appeared before Ed- ward A. Pa3e, acting clerk of the dis- trict court, and swore that he builta log house on the Jand in October, 1894 at which time his actual residence began. The other improveménts con- sisting of a log barn, root house, well, one half mile of barbed wite fence |; and 23 acres cleared, all represénting an‘ outlay of $558. It is charged that Anderson misrepresented the extent of his improvements.+ » The penalty for perjury is not to exceed $2,000 and not to exceed five years in the penitenti ry.—Du- luth News Tribune, - ins RANGE MEN UTTER PROTEST | Go Down To St. Paul To Work Against ~ Proposed Ore Tax. A large delegation of Mesaba range people left on the Eastern Minnesota road from Duluth Tuesday night for St. Paul to protest against the 5-cent ore tax in the Jacobson bill and the proposed amendment to the constitu- tion authorizing the legislature to fix and distribute a tonnage taxon iron ore to suit its pleasure. Tne delegation hoped to be of some as- sistance in eliminating the 5-centa ton clause relating to iron ore, says the Duluth News Tribune. “it isa very short-sighted step on the part of the legislature,” said M. L. Fay of Virginia, a member of the delegation, ‘if it allows that clause to become a law. It looks to me as if it were intended as a sup to St. Louis county for a short time, when the state, under the proposed constitu- tional amendment, may step in and take the bulk of the tax revenue from iron ore, orallof it if it wishes. I say that it is a short-sighted step for this reason: Practically all of the iron ore on the state land is of low grade variety. <A five-cent tax would prohibit the development of many of the low grade propositious, and limit the output ofores from mines that are already shippers. I have no hesi- tency in saying that the five cent tax will cut off 90 per cent of the pro- duction from these properties, on every tonof which the state collects a royalty of 25 cents. Ifthe five cent tax becomes alaw I am sure that every drill working on state’proper- ties west of Hibbing will be discon- tinued. The proposed tax is only a step toward the state gettihg abso- lute control of the taxation of mines, and we of the range towns are afraid to trust ourselves to the tender mer- cies of the leflislature. This is a fight that invol our prosperity, our schools and everything we have. “The five-cent tax will bea blow to Etasca county, which at this very moment ison the verge of a boom. if this law does not pass I happen to know that a road will be built from the vicinity of the Stevenson mine to Grand Rapids, touching several.of prospective “mines; several Or whieh are of the low grace variety. If this bill passes there will be no incentive to build the road and the mines will lie dormant for an indefinite period. When the road is built there will be several new towns built up in Itasca county, and we know that-the loca- tions will have the mineral resources to support them in good shape.”’ Pokegama Court, Cohasset. John MeMurchie of Duluth, high ranger of the United Order o fFor- resters for Mintfesota, was at Cohasset last Saturday evening and assisted Organizer Brown in the institution of a court of the order at that place. The charter members, it is said, are very enthusiastic and they are deter- mined to increase the number of the local court until it outnumbers the order in Grand Rapids. A number of the members of Locksley court in— tended to be present at the organ- ization Saturday evening, but the inclemency of the’ weather and -bad roads prevented their attendance. At some future ;time, however the Grand Rapids court will pay a frater- nal visit to their brothers and sis- ters 1n Cuhasset. The new court adopted . the very approprate pame (‘‘Pokegama” and_ elected the following officers: Chief Ran- ger, H. J. Jones; vice ranger, J. H. Flyna; past chief ranger, M. Callahan; secretary, Mary McCabe; treasurer, Melrose Jones; chaplain, W. I. Gary; chief archer, Chas. Hence; inner woodward, Robert McCabe; outer woodward, Chas. A. Pague; court deputy, Peter Rubado; physician, Dr. George C. Gilbert. 2 Exploring in Sixty Twenty-Four. F. H. Brotherton of Escanaba. Mich., was registered at the Pokeg- ama, Monday. Mr. Brotherton isa mining man of much experience on the Michigan ranges of the upper peninsula. Since August last he has had a.crew of men at work in 6024 with two drills. He was on his way home for a visit, but will shortly re- turn to oversee the explorations. Like all others engaged in prelimin- ary operations Mr. Brotherton was Tather reticent about what he had discovered in that township, but in a general way he appeared to be well, tistled. : } Tue Herald-Review isin receipt of acopy of the Payne (Ohio) Reflector, of which our former associate, T.
