& —— "TWAS A(GRAND TRIP The Northern Mifnesota “Editors? Excursion. Royally Entertained at Virginia, Hibbing, ‘Tower, Minn.,and Houghton, Mich. ---An Enjoyable and ‘In- stractive Trip. “‘And the golden grain From the boundless plain Finds a pathway to the sea. The sun-kissed sail Meets the glistening rail In homage at her feet; And the lordly pines With the ore combine To make her wealth complete.” _The sixth annual excursion of the Northern Minnesota Editorial association Was one of the most enjoyable and in- structive in its history, and included a 800d square look at the enterprising city ef Duluth, a visit to the wonderful iron mines of the Mesaba and Vermillion rang eamboat trip acros$ Lake Su- perior to the famous copper country in northern Michigan. One of the main ob- jects of this association is to visit dif- ferent parts of our own state, and thus become familiar with the features, ad- vantages, beauties and historic incidents of all the regions embraced within its borders. Such information is valuable F y necessary to that intelligent that newspapers are expected to render to their respective localities, and to their own commonwealth. With this laudable purpose in view, in addition to the social pleasures which always are comeomitants at gatherings of this kind, the editorial party assembled in Duluth on Aug. 1, 1902, in time to take the morning train on the Duluth, Mes- aba & Northern Railroad for Virginia, 74 miles distar fter a couple hours’ run through fine fc of spruce and pine, mixed im places with a variety of decidu- 1s trees, and occasional stretches of cut- over or burnt-over lands, which testified to the wasteful depletion of this magnif- ent timber region in times p Vir- a was reached, and each member of atch the first Minnesota mining ve service party was eager to mpse of a typical ir coming had been heralded and most pleasing rangements for our en- ainment had been made by Editors all, of the Virginian, and Han- rd, of the Enterprise, assisted by of the place. A dozen handsome ere in waiting at ther depot to the different points of The Oliver, Lone Jack, “Ohio an mines, of’ the United ‘St ration, were the first ones v ure open mines, but are>not ut present as the company pre- Cupperr f operate on leased lands. Yet, the sight of this vast body of ore almost-at t surface of the earth, filled-us mazement, and gave us-an inkling enormou quantities of iron-con- n the ranges. A’ little further on ‘anklin and Union~ mines, owned Republic Iron & “Steel company, encountered on of a steam shovel, engaged”in ing a train of cars froma huge pile of soft ore. About five minutes-sufficed for loading . Next, “the “Commodore owned by Corrigan, MeKinney °& the Lincoln mine, of the” Jones n company, “were visited. 'To Berryman, at the latter, the editors bligations for courtesies ex- by the r where ~we saw the About 30 dffferent mines ~are about Virginia, and” it -was, -of impossible to see’them all in the limited time at our disposal. “When the Gebris on top of the ore ‘deposit’ is’ too thick to allow it to’ be ped off, -a shaft is sunk to the>ore, which is -con- veyed to the surface’ in-theyusual inan- ner. Most mines we saw-here-arecof this illustration oof “the -enor- mous mineral wealth contained “in the bowels of the earth,wwerwere told atoone of the mines:that thecore* body had” been struck 100 feet below ‘the surface, “had been penetrated 200 feet,-and how much deeper it extended no one knew,: unless’ it was:the company. Returning: to the-city the-members of the party were pleasant- ly entertained -at the “Virginia -club, by Editors Cuppernull and Hannaford, ad- journing later :to discuss <an appetizing menu-at the Fay shotel. At 03 wiclock .p. m. ‘the -party -again pboartied ‘the a which avere whirled westward about:20 miles to Hibbing, :an- other important mining tawn. Here we were driven ‘in carriages :to tthe edge of the Mahoning mine, the greatest wonder The surface debris, which 18 ‘feet ‘in <thickne stripped off -a 40-acre are: bare a solid core dleposit -at 'east 200 feet in depth. ‘Gazing at ‘this ‘huge, elliptical shaped ‘pit, simpile, dark, desolate, soli- ani sublime, one was -rentintled of ture of ‘the ruins af tthe Roman Colosseum. -At ‘the sides -was ithe am- phitheater and on tthe arena ‘mighty steam shovels were engaged Jin gladiatorial con- tests, scooping up ‘the soft, ‘brown calered ore and dumping it onto specially con- structed one cars. ‘Dhree trains were seen jodding at @iffenent points im this vast pit. only a couple thours being requined to jJoad a full train. The only timit to the production is what the owners eare to gmake it. This great mine must ‘be seen to be appreciated. A heavy zaim pre- vented an inspection ef other properties, ani the party returned to town, where a dainty repast was served by the ladies of the Maccabees. The supper was turned {nto an informal banquet, at which our worthy and ever watchful secretary served as toastmaster, and happy re- sponses were made by different members of the association and citizens of Hibbing. Editor Claude M. Atkinson, of the Hib- ping Mews, called attention to the great attractions of this region for the sports- man, both the hunter and the angler. Again the editorial party boarded the cares, which were run to Tower, another jmportant mining town, where we arrived at midnight, and were comfortably quar- tered in the cozy Vermillion hotel. Early the next morning we arose and embarked on a scow, towed by a tug, for a trip on the beautiful Vermillion lake, with its pine-clad shores and evergreen isles: Be- fore leaving the hotel there was an ob- ject near by upon which we gazed for a few moments with reverence and admi- ration. It was the magnificent iron mon- ument, erected to the memory of Presi- gent McKinley, shortly after his tragic death, by the patriotic miners and cfti- zens. of Tower. The weather was fine and the run of fifteen miles up the lake and return was thoroughly enjoyed by all. nis fine body of water is about 30 miles 4p Jength and has a very extensive shore yine. A number of prominent ladies ana gentiemen of Tower accompanied us on the irip and added to our enjoyment by cla As an their geriidlity:and kindness. A deticious | lunch .was served on board. Returning, | we were Janded at the Soudan mines, where, ‘under ‘the escort of the versatile Capt..Pengilly, who also had accompaiiied usvon.the lake ‘trip, in his own handsome yacht, we were shown every point of in- terest. The ‘famous hard ore mine ot the Minnesota Iron company, 900 teet in depth, is located here. After a thorough inspection of this property, and a hand- some new lecture ‘hall near by, built by Finnish miners, we were forced to bid adieu to our!Kind friends at Tower, and to resume our journey back to Duluth, where we arrived:on ‘the evening of Aug. 2, In time for an elegant banquet, ten- dered our party at the St. Louis -hotel, by’ the Duluth Commercial club, Our visit to -the Ranges had been ‘a series of surprises. That Minnesota is’ great as an agficultural ‘and lumbering: state, we all knew, but her entrance irito the list of mining-states 4s so reeent that it is hard to realize ‘that already she ‘is; the second state-in the Union in the pro-! duction of iron. -Not many years:ago.this, whole region was .a howling -wilderness. Now, here are’a:number .of thrifty towns) with excellent ‘stores and hotels, attract- ive homes, good -schools, -churches and all the evidences .of culture and ‘refine- ment. About 15,000°men ‘are employed in. the range mines,.and they receive good wages, live in comfortable homes, and.as far as we could learn, were happy .and contented. A perfect !network of railway tracks traverses the mining region and three or four different railway tines are kept busy hauling the ore to the .great ore docks at Duluth and Two Harbors, where it is loaded onto big steamers for conveyance to.the smelters at Pittsburg and other points.in the east. When it is remembered that .the .ore output .in .this region during 1900 was 8,000,000 tons, the immensity of this traffic is apparent. It is to be regretted that all this ore must be sent outside the state to be smelted and manufactured, but in time this may be changed. Now, a few words about that elaborate banquet and the cordial welcome extend- ed to us by the citizens of Duluth. The tables were tastefully dressed, the menu vas dainty and substantial, and tones.of soft and sweet, floated in ‘the banquet hall. Many of Duluth’s promi- ladies and gentlemen graced the ion by their presence. “Representa- of Duluth’s metropolitan newspa- pers were there. Mr. L, Miller acted toastmaster ‘in a pleasing manner. r Hugo welcomed us in a warm speech. Col. A, M. Flagg, editor of the News-Tribune, greeted -us on ‘the part ‘of the Editor W. “M. James, of ithe Breckenridge Telegram, responiled-appro- priately’ for. the association. ‘Speeches to the point and full-of good cheer:were also delivered by Secretary ‘A. ‘Nelson, of the ‘Hallock News; J. Adam Bede, of the :newspaper ‘fraternity of ‘the y. “Editor W. M. James; of ‘the C.°S. Mitchell, ofthe Alex- andria ‘Post-News; Granville 8. Pease, of the Anoka Union; P. E. Dowling. of ‘the Eveleth ‘Star, and Clarence B. Miller, «of Duluth. -Mrs. Fratiklin W. Lee, of ‘the Rush’ City’Post, recited-a humorous poem, composed’ by her late husband, ‘which wi well received. Leng will ‘the ‘kindness and ‘hospitality of :the people of Duluth, and especially the €legant- banquet, ‘be remembered’ by the editors. Next “day our party were ‘given a Ue- lightful tally-ho rie over Duluth’s fa- mous” boulevard “ative, when -we were Ilit- erally ‘taken ‘to ‘the ‘mountain ‘top ‘ant shown-all ‘the greatness of the city. Yes, ‘more ‘than ever are we ‘impressed with the growing ‘importance of Duluth as a commercial center, and we were surprised ‘to learn that ‘in point .of ‘ton- mage “She “has already outstripped Chi- cago, New ‘York, Liverpool, Hamburg, Bremen and-every other great port in the world ‘Her business men are young, en- ergetic and re: seful, and propose building -a city at ‘the head of ‘the ‘lakes that shall’be without a rival on the Amer- jean continent. On the everiing of nent ug. 3 -we embarked ‘on ‘the “White “Line portation com- pany’s palatial steamer Iroquois, from the deck -of which we watched ithe city of (Duluth, 'lit-up "by thousands of electric fade away in the distance. like a y diream. “After a night's refreshing ssleep ‘we were <still ‘riting the waves of ake Superior when morning breéke on /&ug. 4th. Presently we entered tthe Port- age canal, and before long we were in ‘Houghton, Mich., partaking of a bounti- iful breakfast at the Douglass ‘house. ‘We were now ‘to see the greatest eop- per Qistrict ‘in the world. A special train ‘for making the tour of the sntelters, sstamp mills an@ mines, was kindly placed our @isposal, ‘by courtesy of Superin- ~dent J. C. Shielés, of the Mineral] ge railroad. At the mumerous plants on Dollar ‘Bay we watched the* process of drawing copper wire, now used so ex- ttensively in electrical works, and saw the ‘fiery furnaees where copper was melted and east into ingots and bars. Next, we ‘inspected a mumber of stamp mills, all equipped with a lot of expensive ma- chinery, where the method of freeing the aapper from its Incrustation was followed through. ‘The famous Calumet and Hecia and ‘Tamarae copper mines, which have paid about $99,000,000 in dividends, were visited. Some of the shafts of these great mines are about a mile in depth. ‘The ponderous engines, air compressors amd other mining machinery used in their operation, were wonderful to behold. On our return to Houghton, a visit was made to the Michigan College of Mines, the foremost institution of the kind in this country. Minnesota ought to have one like it. President F. W. McNair showed us through the buildings and explained the methods of instruction. The eventful day, during which we had seen much and learned much, closed with one of Mann’s famous planked white- fish dinners, at the Douglass house. Here also we listened to some bright and witty after-dinner speeches by J. Adam Bede, ¢. 8. Mitchell, President F. W. McNair, Horace J. Stevens, the mining statisti- cian, and others. -A pleasing diversion, occurred when Editor W. M. James, of Breckenridge, Minn., arose, ard in beauti- ful words, tendered the thanks of the association to E. A. Nelson, of Hallock, upon whom, as secretary, had devolved the labor of planning and conducting this excursion. As a tolen of appreciation fand esteem, he presented to Mr. Nelson and his wife, on,behalf of the members of the party, a beautiful set of one dozen silver knives and forks. and a delicately wrought sugar shell.,But the steamer whistles and we must leave our new- made Michigan friends, who had enter- tained us so lavishly during the day. On beard most members sought their state rdéoms fortwith, and ‘‘were rocked in the cradle of the deep.” » At the annual meeting of the associa- tiop, held on the Iroquois next day, the foliswins officers were elected: News; vice-president, Mrs. u Lee, of the Rush City Post; secretary, A- G. Barnard, of the Cass ‘Lake Voice; ‘treasurer, W. M. James, of the Brecken- ridge Telegram. i The following resolutions were unani- mously adopted: At the.close of this the sixth annual outing of the Northern Minnesota Bdi- torial association, by the members of said association, be it Resolved, That this outing has been the most enjoyable and instructive in_ the history of the association. It has afford~ ed us the opportunity of seeing and real- 4zing the wealth of iron ore the state of Minnesota has in the morthern ranges. ‘Dhe development *in the way of mining and-shipping was a stupendous revelation and impressed us more than words can tell ‘of the wondrous mineral wealth of the state. To fully appreciate ithe ‘almost fabulous ‘amount of iron in existence in the Mesaba and Vermillion ranges, every editor in this state should make them a visit. Resolved, That ‘it is apparent that St. Louis county ‘is paying a vast amount of taxes into ‘the state treasury, and ‘all owing .to the development .of these iron properties, it is the opinion of the editors of this association that it would be fit, wise and proper .to locate and provide for the erection of-a ‘properly equipped School of Mines on one of .the above ranges, suchas are maintained in:many states in the Union. Such an institution would, we believe, do a great deal in making known .in an intelligent and scientific manner, the still almost latent resources of Minnesota. A college of mines would enable Students to obtain.a thorough ed- ucation in technical and practical engi- neering and mining. As an editorial as- sociation we pledge ourselves to assist in advocating and obtaining such an educa- tional institution. Resolved, that we in this manner ex- press our thanks to the Great Northern railroad for its liberality in furnishing us with transportation to and from Duluth, Resolved, further, That the thanks of the association is.due and are hereby ten- dered to the officials of the Duluth, Mes- aba & Northern Railway company, and the Duluth & Iron Range Railway com- pany for the courtesy of a special train, and to the citizens and press of Virginia, Hibbing and Tower for the magnificent reception and favors shown us. Also to the Commercial club and citizens of Du- luth for the magnificent banquet tendered, and for the enjoyable tally-ho ride around the world-famed boulevard; to Messrs. Singer and Brush, of the White Line Transportation company; to Supt. J. C. Shields, Geo. W. Hibbard, general passen- ger agent, and other officials of the Du- luth, South Shore .& Atlantic railway; to Editor Kelsey, of the Mining Gazette; Horace . Stevens, mining statistician, and citizens of Houghton generally, for their hearty and cordial reception, thoughtful attention and hospitable treat- ment, and especially for the planked white fish dinner, tendered at the Doug- ss house, .and all others ‘to whom we are indebted for the pleasures of the trip, especially to our worthy secretary, Mr. E.
