terest of the department and the alder
men and chief had heart 10 heart
talk in which few uncomplimentary
package were handed out pro and con.
but which will undoubtedly bring
about change in the department pro-
gram.
The chief wanted hose. He was told
to go and get department to use the
hose first He replied that in order to
get department its was necessary to
have quarters TO meet in and added
that the quarters in the town hall
more closely resemble a pig pen than a
place for civilized fire fighters to meet
in. It's dirty and unheated every
article Of furniture has been stolen out
of it and it can't be locked, FOR as
soon as IL is. some Of tho city officials
get permission to 60 in and use IL for
a repair shop or allow a band 20 meet
therein and dirty 81 All up said the
chief
The two parties to the controversy
then got down TO business and talked
matters over IN their right light with
the result that the chief was told TO
clean up ana equip the iiremen's quar-
ters and TO put lock on the door and
carry the key Then 70 call meeting
Of his department, get organized and
when an these matters had been per-
fecied 70 come around to the council

OUT At INTEREST
COUNCIL DECIDES TO INVEST SUR
PLUS FUNDS.
WITH A VERY SHARP STICK
The Alderman Went After the Sewer Con.
tractor-He Must Stand all Expenses
for 0verseers.

Crystal Falls city is so loaded with
money that the Surplus funds are be-
coming a nuisance and the council has
decided to invest $40. 900 Of the city 8

instead Of allowing il to lie idle in the
hands Of the treasurer.
AT the last meeting the report Of the
teasurer showed a balance On hand Of
about $l3, 600 over ana above all out
standing orders. AS the time for the
collection OF taxes is now at nand the
funds in the hands Of the treasurer will
be increased very shortly by another
$40, 600. The sewer work is all paid
for and the suspension Of operations
eliminated the demand for funds from
that source until next spring so the
council decided to invest ten thousand
of the money at present on hand and
TO that end they instructed the treasur-
er TO place the money at interest whore
ever the best rate can be got.
The sewer contractor came in for his.
He has been dallying around too long,
in the opinion OF the council and must
fish or cut bait from this out. He has

After that time the contractor must

MILLIONS IN ROAD SUITS
Attorney General Bird Prepares 10 Fight
Cases.

Millions are involved in three i'm
portant railroad suits which Atty.
Gen. Bird is now preparing TO fight
in court. The damage suit OF the
Michigan Central for 81, 600. 600 against
the state for the repeal OF it's special
charter viii come before the supreme
court Tuesday. Another suit is against
the Michigan Central for taxes held
back before 1898. Most important is
the suit of the state against the ID. G..
II. a. M. Twenty years ago the su-
preme court held that the charter Of
the d., O.. II. 81 NJ. could not be re-
pealed and that the first charter. from
Detroit 20 Pontiac. could extend to
cover the entire line. This exempted
this road from the recent tax case, but
the states attorneys believe the ori-
ginal charter can be confined 10 the
original road from Detroit 70 Pontiac.

in THE BUILDING or HOMES IN
CRYSTAL FALLS.
MANY WANT BUILDING LOANS
On Houses But Money for Real Estate
investment Cannot be had Keeps
Town Back.

crystal Falls wants money Tor home
building. There are over one hundred
working men in this city today who
want to build homes and who have
from one-half to three quarters OF the
money necessary TO build with but who
are kept from building because there
is no money available for real estate
loans.
One OF the leading contractors said
to reporter for the Diamond Drill
last week that he had been approached
10y as many as dozen persons who
were anxious to build and had the
money 10 pay about three quarters OF
the price who desired him TO see IL he
couldn't find some person or persons
who would loan the balance,
There is one peculiar condition
here said prominent citizen. in
terested in finance. 10 a representative
Of this paper a short time ago, "and
that IL the fact that there is 40 much
money in this town and so many people
without homes yet so little building
ON personal account.
Money is plentiful Everyone has it
but not in sufficient quantity to build
house. II takes much more 10 build
house now days than il did several
years ago. Again, person doesn t.
feel like putting in every dollar into
real estate as some misfortune might
arise that would necessitate the use of
some ready money, 50 people like to
save little OF their cash for rainy
day
There is but one way 20 remedy this
defect and that is to attract capital 20
this city. Banks can't loan on real
estate security They are prohibited
from doing 50 by law The deposists
may pile up to enormous amounts in
bank and yet money for real estate
investment be very tight
There is any amount Of money look
ing for just such investment oppor-
tunities from outside Lenders want 10
know that their money Is safe and any
mortgage on property in this city is as
good rs gold, that is mortgages on from
half to three quarters Of the cost OF
houses.
Residents of the city who know Of
others having money 10 loan on real
estate security should take IL upon
themselves 70 advertise the fact that
there il a good, safe field here for in
vestment. The Diamond Drill viii be
pleased TO aid in this matter all that is
possible and we will be pleased to
learn OF persons desiring loans and
those having money to loan for such
purposes and will try 70 bring them
together IL given al opportunity.
Crystal Falls Is yet in its infancy
The half has never been told Of this
place. 1t is but just dawning upon
those interested in commercial ways
here, in our mines mills and lands
that there Is permanent great mining
camp here that is going 10 develop into
the largest on the Menominee range
and whose stability is TO be as firm as
Gibralter. Let's give n strong pull, a
long pull and pull altogether to attract
money here for home builders.
