apoIls District

apolis District
Cashier JAS j. Ganffey of the Iron
County National Bank received a
message last week asking if the local
institution is satisfied with the a
assigning of the upper peninsula to be
part of the Minneapolis regional re-
serve district. The massage came
from the copper country, the banks of
which section took the initiative in
protesting against the arrangement.
The local institution objected from
the first to the arrangement and
gladly joined with the copper country
institutions in protest. All the bust
ness of this section Of the state is done
with Chicago as the distributing
center. The railroad connections are
designed especially TO serve this coun-
try from Chicago. Minneapolis is off
on different railroad lines and has but
little in common with the upper pen
insula The reason that the banks Of
this section are so unanimously 6ppos-
eel to the assignment is that for years
Chicago has been the business center
and IL will continue to be so in the fu-
ture, making the crossing of lines be 4,
tween the reserve bank and the ordi-
nary daily banking intercourse very
distasteful.

WHAT'S THE MATTER
Crystal Falls is a Dark Town With Plenty Of
Light 10 Burn


Why have the festoons Of small lights
that stretched across Superior avenue
for severai years been discontinued per-
manently. We were told last winter
that the discontinuance was only
temporary owing to the low stage Of
the water. Ii looks to us as il the
lights have been discontinued per-
msnently and we simply ask the coun-
Gil why it is thus9
We have heard scores of citizens re-
mark upon the absence of those lights.
Crystal Falls people don't want a
dark town. IL there is any good roa-
son they are willing TO wait until the
trouble is remedied but what is the
reason Wall our mayor or some Of our
councilmen kindly answer usS
