News Snapshots
OF the Week
Old Case Revived

Two years ago last New Years day
Finlander was killed In q salosn
brawl at Mansfield. The matter at.
tracted quite deal OF attention at the
time as the affair was a particularly
bad one, the day being legal holiday
and the occasion being one in which
murder was done but the conditions
such that II was hard to fasten the re-
sponsibility upon anyone.
The prosecuting attorney spent three
days examining witnesses and trying
to get evidence upon which to base a
criminal case but 30 clannish were the
participants on both sides that he was
unable to get such testimony As be
deemed he needed TO establish good
case. Rather than put the county to =
big expense. which he knew must end
in failure, he refused to direct any ar
rests and the matter was dropped but
not hushed Tor periodically it broke
ont in rumors that this or that was
going to be done.
IL seems now that there is every in
dication OF revival OF the case on the
civil side OF the court A suit has been
commenced by the heirs Of Mack,
the man killed. against John Anesi.
the saloon keeper. and his bondsmen.

during the week and that the case will
como to trial soon. II this informa-

Exercised the Veto

After a conference with Attorney
General Kuhn Thursday. Gov. Osborn
decided TO hold that under the consti-
tuition he had authority not only to We
to specific items in appropriation bills.
but also TO reduce the amount OF speci
tic items. This conclusion was based
on AN opinion rendered by the supreme
court OF Pennsylvania interpreting a
provision of the constitution which 10
similar to the clause in the Michigan
constitution relative to the power OF
the governor to veto items in sppro-
priation bills.
In order 10 make test case, the
governor vetoed the special sppropria-
tion OF 500, 200 asked by the Newberry
asylum with the exception OF one item
or S6. 600 tor water mains. and this he
reduced TO a.. 500.
In order that the matter may be pas
sod upon by the supreme court. The at
torney general Will present the matter
TO that tribunal. IL involves very
important principle. for the reason that
Il the governor has the power to d. the
amounts of all specific items. IL virtu.
ally enables him to supresede the legis.
lature and to fix all appropriations ak
ed for by state institutions or any other
purpose.
The governor has cut out about $3.50.
600 from the Legislative budget, and he
will make reductions "a fast as the ap.
proIriations reach him. In addition
TO the s64. 900 cut from the Newberry
ssylum appropriation, he alsu vetoed
the continuing appropriation Of $50, 600
year for building state armories
holding that while he believed in hous.
ing the state troops properly he did
not think the guard would suffer IL the
matter was postponed. In view OF the
states finances.

CHANCE THE ROAD
County Road Should be Charged To Pass
Through Stambaugh.

The Diamond Drill wishes to respect
fully make suggestion TO the county
road commissioners and it 10 prompted
only by the general welfare OF all the
people Of all the county. II is that the
piece OF road between the Bates cheese
factory and iron River ought 10 be
changed so that IL will pass closer to
the Spring Valley mines and through
the village or Stambaugh.
There is no selfishness to this .ug-
gestion ss we ara not locally interested
In the advantage that one OF our west
side nsighbors has over the other.
Suppose that the road was changed
at about a point where the present
township road leading TO the Rogers
mine branches of the present county
road. Extend IL past the Rogers pro-
perty. past the Baker. Tully. Caspian
and Dober. through Stambsugh and
down into Iron River. Then IL per
son has business in Spring Valley he

40 four miles out OF his way TO get to
his destination or else take mp toat
roads through the woods in order to get

be trunk line that will accommodate
the greatest number Of people and we
can think Of no greater improvement
than change of course that would put
the largely populated section OF STAN
baugh township in direct communica-
tion with both Crystal Falls and Iron
River.
The time to talk this matter over is
before any OF this new appropriation
is spent upon the roads as when they
are laid out this time they are supposed
TO be permanent.
