Held For Horse. Stealing.

Frank Kiehla is in the tolls of the law
for the reason that he couldn't remem-
Der what was his and what was some
body else's property Last Sunday he
borrowed a team from Conrad Kohl
hase, of Wheatland township, to drive
to Granville and as he did not return
Monday warrant was sworn out and
Sheriff Gross started after him, accom-.
panied by DIR. O. E. Brooks in the lat
ter's auto. They overhauled the cul-
prit at Jacob Gonzor's place near the
county line and arrested Mr.. Kiehla an d
brought him in, leaving the team in
charge of Mr.. Gonzor. 1t seems little
curious that he did not get any farther
in the time that he had to make use of
but the fact that he was driving rs.rth
all the time is evidence that he intended
to get away with the team and this he
would eventually have done but for the
promptness of Sheriff Gross. Mr..
Kiehla is now in the county Jail with
ample time to repent.

Ha1ver Ha1verson.

Halver Halverson passed away from
the cares of this earth at the home of
his son, Jacob, in this city, Saturday
morning at 1870 o'clock, after life's
journey of nearly 80 years, death result
ing from cancer of the throat. While
his death was not unexpected by his
numerous friends, it came with a sud-
denness that bowed the heads of those
who had learned to love and respect
him as an honorable, upright and christ
ian gentleman. He has gone to receive
the reward that awaits him in the Gel
estial Kingdom, but we who remain
shall long remember his kindness and
cannot help wondering why such men
should grow In years and pass from our
midst.
Mr.. Halverson was born September
10th, 1926. at Kyitsoe, Norway, was
mar-ied in 1850 to Miss Alet Jorgenson.

1909 ESIIMATE$l
VIII Be Shaved Dewl ssl !
 CepIDg Beiere AIlsrnss|

The department of finance heldl
 long session last night in tho ofiil of Mayor Thoms during which thd did considerable work on the estl mates for 1909 which will be sud mitted to the aldermen next MondaI night. It is out of the question q give the different departments aH they have asked for and keep th3 rate of taxation down to fifteen milla but the board has decided not to exceed 15 mill rate and 1t Is quite likely that it will be under that, and then almost everything that Is really essential will have been provided for. The principal cuts were made in thc department of public works, al- though the commissioners of that board put everything at bottom figure when making up their csli- mates. The grand list amounts $57, 500, 1000, an increase of couplg of millions over fast year. The board will hold ano;ner meeting Monday afternoon when the finishing touchesl will be put upon the budget. Until that time nobody can tell for sure Just what the board will finally de- eide to recommend.

BROOKLYN BRIEFS.

The Brooklyn Athletic club bas-I ketball team will go to Watertownl this evening where they will play the five representing the Knights of King Arthur.
 There was change yesterday in& the condition of Alderman John Ma- lone, who is i'll at his home on Bank street with typhoid fever. His con- dition is now critical.
 Charles Micit, who has been inI Prussia the past few months, return-| ed home yesterday. Micit had not been home in ten years and when he went back intended to stay in his native land couple of years. Bu1 the yearning for America was tool much for him and he started back after being there only short time.
 John Mahaney, son of D. J. Nal nancy of Bank street, who is a stu-l dent at the Baltimore Medical school did good work on the football team representing that college during thd season. Mahaney played at tackla and during the contest with John Hopkins university on Thanksgivinl day put up slashing game in hi position.
 Tonight is the regular meetin night of the Brooklyn Improvement society and if they should get td gether, they are likely to elect off1 cers. The present officers were cleo ed about a year ago, but they ma be asked to continue in office. Aslth society is without the services of secretary due to the resignation Andrew Frederick some weeks ags some of the members do not kno when netting is to be held. Although Matthew Dunphy not likely to manage football teaI4| in Brooklyn next season. nevertheless there is likely to be an eleven in this section next fall. The club itself will in all probability take the matter under consideration and elect cap tain and manager in much the same way as the affairs in the baseball team are carried out. The footba team met last evening and the none | in the treasury was divided amon them. It was not much, but non@ of the players seem to regret havinl played with the Brooklyn team dul ing the season just closed. It was
 good start and an nucleus for an e cellent team next year will be wal ing for whoever is appointed manag
 of the 1909 team.

 desire to make try at the first con test to be held, however, you should

CHILDREN OF SCHOOL AGE
Waterbury Has 17,52O Children Be
 tween f and 10.

Returns from the cities and town of the state showing the number q children between the ages of 4 anS 16 years are now being received d the office of the state comptr0lleI It Is as yet too early to draw con clusions as to what the enumeration will show as to the increase in thl population of those ages since thu last enumeration. Fifty-two town had been heard from yesterday al ternoon, besides partial reports iron New Haven and Norwich, and th4 number of children, exclusive oll those reported from New Haven any Norwich, was 73,S11. These figures do not include the Hartford enumer- ation. Bridgeport heads the list so far with 20,734 and Waterbury makes a good showing with 17,520. Union, with S4 on it's list, is the smallest report that has yet been re- ceived. As there are 167 towns in all to be heard from it may be seen that the work is far from completed as yet.

Horatio s. Earle. good roads com
missioner and candidate for governor,
has taken to bin board advertising In
order to get his candidacy before the
people he has had large posters
printed calling attention to his candi-
dacy for governor.
On the bills Mr. Earle calls attention
to enrolment day. August 20, and
especially to primary election day,
September l. 1t is suggested to the
voters that when at the polls he should
put cross in front Of the name of Mr..
Earle on the ticket, il the platform Of
the candidate appeals to him.
Eaile's platform is printed in full
with the slogan More business less
politics in large letters. So far az
is known il is the first time candidate
for governor ever attempted 10 secure
support by the billboard route, and al
Inc is having bills posted throughout

Republicans are United.

II Is an open fact. OF course, that the
Roosevelt policies have their strong re-
publican opponents, and that these
have.been powerful in the councils OF
the ruling coteries of both houses OF
congress- AS the preliminary work OF
finding candidate proceeded at the
Chicago convention, the distinction
between the 'progressives led by the
Roosevelt administration. aud the 40
called "reactionaries" became more
sharply accumulated. But II was also
clear that the Roosevelt element OF the
party represented the vast majority OF
the republican votes Mr.. Taft's
strength as candidate wss due above
all else 10 the xnowledge that Mr..
Roosevelt was advocating his selection.
and to the further knowledge that. AZ
great member Of the Roosevelt admin.
istration. Mr.. Taft was thoroughly
known TO both as 10 his views and also
~ TO his remarkable qualifications for
the presidency. Thus the real plat.
form OF the republican party In this
campaign is Mr.. Taft himself rs IN
doraed and guaranteed by Mr. Roose-
Welt.

THE DAY AFTER.

Last Monday witnessed the warmest
contest for school officers that Crystal
Falls has seen ia many day. Both
sided had strong workers out and both
polled.s good vote. although the returns
showed that the Taxpayers were Ia
the big majority. Notwithstanding
that the contest was warm. the day
after showed 40 sigus OF soreness The
majority was too pronounced to allow
OF any question being raised as to the
wish OF the voters
There Ia one matter. however. now
that the contest Is ont of the way and
that we can all ait down aud talk to-
gether, that The Diamond Drill would
like 10 express itself upon in no mis-
taken terms several times. OF late.
the matter Of religion has been mixed
into local politcis and we wish 10 con
denim the action and the persons re-
sponsible for its introduction. The
man who will let religion affect bis

the privileges OF suffrage In this free
country where the constitution gives
10 every man the privilege OF enter

chooses without let or hindrsnce. Tn,
men who are "built that way" can h
counted upon the fingers OF two
hands. They are not confined 10 one
side nor 70 one creed or sect. but nc
