The readers of this paper will be
pleased to team that there is at least
one dreaded disease that science - has
been able to cure in all its stages and
that is catarrh. Catarrh being greatly
Influenced by constitutional conditions
requires constitutional treatment. Hall's
Catarrh Medicine is taken internally and
acts thru the Blood on the Mucous Sur
faces of the System thereby destroying
the foundation of the disease, giving the
patient strength by building up the con
stitution and assisting nature in doing its
work. The proprietors have so much
faith in the curative power of Hall’s
Catarrh Medicine that they offer One
Hundred Dollars for any case that it fails
to cure. 8. nd for list of testimonials.

His banker often lends a hand at such a time, espec

Long Winter Evenings.
It’s a wise one who provides him
self with entertainment for these
nights when nothing appeals quite as
much as a quiet, cozy evening at
home. Perhaps the most profitable
entertainment is a stimulating,
worth-while piece of reading. Get
acquainted with the old masters of
literature whose works have stood
the test of time. Two years from
now you may or may not remember
that you read the latest cry off the
press this winter, but you will re
member with satisfaction the pleas
ure derived from those old masters
who wrote so well that their stories
are still read and enjoyed. Take
home a volume of Balzac, Dumas,
Dickens, Crawford, Scott or Reade
to make your evenings pleasant and
profitable. We have them at the
Community Center Branch Library.

“Please extend to the several

which are cooperating to such a

thanks of the National Officers of

Gopher Legion Has Fine Record.
Since its establishment in 1919,
the American Legion of Minnesota
has organized 492 Legion Posts
and 275 Legion Auxiliary Units
Every town of 500 population or
more has an American Legion Port,
and most Minnesota towns of 300
or more population have posts.
Sixty-five thousand former service
men have enrolled in the Minne
sota Legion since its institution.
However, the Legion counts only
paid-up members, and at this time
of the year, practically all members
are in the act of reinstating—pay
ing their 1922 dues. These are
arriving at State Headquarters at
the rate of six thousand each week.
To encourage conscientious study
combined with athletic prowess
among the boys and girls of North
ern Minnesota, each American Le
gion Post in the Eighth Minnesota
District will present an American
Legion cup or medal each year to
the member of the local high school
who excels both in athletics and in
scholarship. The presentation will
be made the occasion for a suitable
ceremony.
Legionaires of Duluth, Minnesota
are nothing if not enthusiastic
sportsmen and athletes. Especially
in winter do they glory in the fray.
This year their Legion Hockey
Team is writing history for “Min
nesota” and the “Legion”—writing
it across America. They beat
Eveleth’s Champion 1921 Hockey
Team two straight, went to Winni
peg and licked the Canadians twice,
then to St. Paul, where they played
the two most sensational hockey
contests ever staged there, before
the biggest Twin City crowds which
ever gathered to witness such an
event. Both teams, in both games,
were tied at the end of the regular
session, and in the supplementary
period necessary to 'decide the issue,
St. Paul won both games by two
lucky shots. Now the Duluth boys
are off to Cleveland, Pittsburg, Bos
ton and Philadelphia to defend the
reputation they have gained for all
that is manly and sportsmanlike in
the athletic life of America. The
Legion emblem appears on every
man’s uniform. Their Gopher bud
dies bid them God-speed.
National Commander MacNider’s
declaration that “The Strength of
the Legion is in it’s Posts,” is
daily being demonstrated by scores
of Gopher Legion posts. Minne
sota Legionaires are proving that
quality and not quantity counts
most in Legion affairs as in every
other worth-while Ohdeavor. Some
of the smallest Gopher posts are the
most verile, mogt helpful, most ag
gressive. They are always up to
their ears in worthy community en
terpnzes. As a result, they hare
their local citizens back of them——
have won for themselves a place
in the esteem of their communities.
Sister M. Olivia, Supt. of St.
Mary’s Hospital, Duluth, has writ
ten a nice letter to members of
Osakis Legion Post, thanking them
for the $25. they mailed her to
provide good cheer at Christmas for
the disabled buddies in that Duluth
hospital. The money furnished a
Christmas tree, Christmas dinner,
and Christmas entertainment.
Members of the City Council of
Eveleth, Minnesota gladly accepted
the invitation of Eveleth Legion
aires to • attend their community
celebration in a body. Two hund
red citizens had a good time at this
Legion gathering. For the last
week in January the Eveleth post
and auxiliary will hold open house
for the citizens. At these com
munity meetings the Legion pro
vides the hall and the orchestra
and the Auxiliary members serve
tasty refreshments.
Soon the Bonus Bill.
“The decision of the Senate
Caucus to make the Adjusted Com
pensation bill a part of the Admin
istration’s legislative program to be
taken up following the debt refund
ing b’A makes it certain that the
bill will be passed to take effect by
July 1, 1922 the same date as pro
vided in the American Legion bill
considered last fall,” said Archie
H. Vernon, former state command
er of the American Legion.
“This is exactly what the Ameri
can Legion of Minnesota asked at
£ s , last .convention, and Senator
Kellogg is probably entitled to as
much credit as any one man for
this result. I have been in almost
continuous correspondence with
him regarding the Adjusted Com-
sensation bill since it was drafted
by our committee and have con
ferred with him on the measure,
I think every time he has returned
from Washington t o Minnesota
since. When the bill was recom
mitted at the special session last
fall because the Administration felt
other measures were immediately
urgent, while the adjusted compen
sation bill did not take effect until
July 1, 1922, Senator Kellogg
•erved notice that the measure
would have to be taken up and en
acted so that the Senate’s course
then would cause no delay in the
relief afforded ex-service men.
“I know that for some time past
Senator Kellogg has been assidu
ously working with Administration
and Congressional leaders to have
the adjusted compensation bill con
sidered and enacted so that it
would be certain to take effect by
July 1, 1922, the date provided in
the original Fordney bilk Probably
no member of the Senate has more
influence in the Senate and with
the Administration than Senator
Kellogg, and his attitude had much
to do with the decision of the
caucus, which insures the enact
ment of the adjusted compensation
bill to take effect just as soon as
if it had been passed last falL”

Only five filed their affidavits
with the county auditor announcing
themselves as candidates for the
nominations to be made at the
primary election to be held on Feb.
11. The names as filed were as
follows all putting in their affidavits
as Republicans:
M. E. Gleason, Mayor.
F. L. Cowen, Treas.
P. Schaefer, Clerk.
Thos. Jury, Assessor.
Th os. Whitta, Municipal Judge.
i The aldermanic candidates will
not go into the primaries but will
go on the ticket by petition* thus
saving the $lO fee required to get
on the primary ballot. Several of
the candidates for other offices will
also do the same.
The primary election law for
small towns is net exactly what it
should be. Party lines are not a
necessity as the municipal affairs
have no bearing on national or
state affairs. In large cities where
people are not so well acquainted
as in Ely, the law is good. Fere
we all know the candidates individ
ually and a unanimity of choice
should prevail regardless of nation
al affairs. The best men for the
places is all that is necessary in
small towns.

The remains of Chris. Reinhardt,
a familiar character about Ely for
many years, were brought into the
city Monday from the Fall lake
country, having been found hang
ing to the rafters of an old logging
camp near Mud lake he having com
mitted suicide some time Saturday.
As near as can be ascertained
Reinhardt had been at Winton
Thursday and had gone to the camp
in company with another man. He
worked until Friday afternoon when
he quit and again started for Win
ton. On the way he evidently was
taken ill and laid down alongside
the road where he remained all
night. In the morning he walked
to the Marquette camp and secured
something to eat after which he
again left for the camp. He
never arrived there and his body
was found as above. v
Coroner Sewall of Lake County
was notified and he arrived Mon
day evening. An inquest was held
and a rendered by the jury
that the man came to his death by
suicide.
His relatives reside in Medford,
Wis., and have been notified but so
far no response has been received.
The remains will probably be ship
ped to Minneapolis for interment.
The public schools of Ely will
hold memorial exercises in the
various rooms next Wednesday
afternoon in honor of Wm. Mc-
Kinley. Wednesday Jan. 2s, is the
birthday of our martyred president
and in response to a proclamation
issued by Governor Van Sant the
exercises will be held. Special ex
exercises will take place in the
High School room and Rev. Logan,
Rev. Marsh and the principal will
make remarks. The other rooms
will hold commemorative exercises
and a voluntary donation is invited
from all the pupils of the Ely
schools, the same to be sent to the
National Memorial association. No
