Copper Industry Picking Up

The shipping season of 1915 was in
augurated in the Crystal Falls district
last Thur sday afternoon when orders
were received by the Carpenter mine
to commence loading the daily output
in cars. The Carpenter mine is a M. A.
Hanna & Co. property and the early
commencement OF shipments is an in
dication that the company has made a
sale Of Carpenter ore and that the
buyers want it right away.
The Carpenter sent out its first ore
last year. 1t is a comparatively high
grade ore and is, we understand, of a
texture and moistu.e contents that
the furnaces like.

CAMPAIGN ENDS TOMORROW
Canvass In Iron County is the Warm
est Of any County In the State


spellbinding continued all week on
both sides OF the "wet" and dry
question. Tomorrow ends the fight
with big rally In Crystal Falls which
will be addressed by Gov. Hodges Of
Kansas.
AS our forms were being made up on
last weeks issue, Hon. Homer c. Dur
and of Cincinnati was speaking in the
city hall auditorium for the "wets".
Mr.. Durand is a man who has devoted
his talents to the wet" side of the
question. His address was listened to
by very large gathering, both "wets"
and "drys". His argument was along
the line OF the origin of the drinking
of liquor and it's sanction by biblical
and ecclesiastical action throughout all
the ages. He also dwelt on the per-
sonal liberty side of the question as
between the laborer who is kept from
getting the booze and the employer
who enjoys It,
Mr. Duland is pleasant talker and
every line of his discourse was gentle
manly and dignifed. He stated frank
ly that the enthusiasm in this contest
is all on the other side and therefore
he did not indulge in any climax or
flights of oratory.
On Sunday the 'drys' had two inn
ings. In the afternoon Father Zurgher,
a Catholic priest from New York,
man S0-years Of age and twenty OF
those devoted to temperance work.
spoke in the city hall auditorium. Des-
pite his age, Father zurgher made
fine address and pleased his audience.
Even the "wets" who were present
spoke highly OF his talk.
In the evening an audience that
taxed the big hall to its capacity as
sembled tothear Lieutenant Governor
Dickinson talk. A number of people
turned away rather than stand up
during the evening II was by far the
largest crowd that had assembled to
that hour at any OF these lectures,
4sffs Diqitiuson's talk was more Int the
line of business discussion and de-
tail of what had been done and what is
doing in official circles Of this state.
On Monday evening the "wetsv came
back with Michael ]. Doyle of Men
ominee
Mr.. Doyle pleased his audience very
much. His talk had some vim to II and
his delivery was better than any OF the
other wet speakers.
On Thursday night Hon II. Il, Lloyd
appeared for the vets and made very
good impression. Tonight Presby
terian minister from Chicago is to
speak for the vets and on Sunday the
dry's will wind up their campaign
with DR.. Dickie OF Albion college in
the afternoon and Gov Hodges in the
evening

be held in the afternoon so that there
will be something doing every minute

The Crystal Falls Case

In Crystal Falls the council acted
wisely in selecting only the worthiest
of applicants for license after the
supreme court decision laid down the
lines. One member of the council,
Mr.. l. II. Jackson. was brewery agent
and instead of trying to hog all the
business by approving only his own
customers he lead the movement to
select only the best of the dealers.
Several OF his best customers were de-
MED license but Mr. Jackson was
wise beyond his day and could see that
aaXSother action would bring reac-
ton sooner or later.
The dealers denied n license went
into court and on technicalities wigg
gled back into business. That left a
bad taste in many mouths and it's
having its influence now

No other Mines shipping

SO far as we can learn there is no
haste to start shipments at any of the
other mines OF the district and most Of
the mining men about here say that
they know Of no liability of their being
asked to load ore for some time yet
The Dunn mne is gradually increas-
ing its number of employers and will
be in position to make fair sized
output. The Judson people are still
working with short time and the Bris-

financial end and didn't rest until the
money was IN sight 10 finance such a
campaign as he had IN mind We are
told unoficially that the campaign es-
innate was $4,000 Men came forward
literally with contributions. Most OF the
mining companies came across. One
OF the supporters OF the movement, we
are told, drew his check for $500 and
told the committee that In case OF
necessity he could be drawn upon for
s2,5O0.
Mr.. Brown has displayed marked
ability I'm the work SO far and as the
meshes are being drawn together and

which this campaign was handled.
The Vets Get Started
The vets didn't get into action untiT
about the first of the present month
when the attorney for the upper pen
insula brewers took hold and sought
to bring order out OF chaos. An organ
ization had been formed among the.
liquor dealers Of the west side ana
later the liquor dealers formed an as
sociation over here. The campaign ON
the side of the vets didn't seem to have
the cohesiveness that the dry's cam
paign evidenced owing to the separa-
tion Of interests However. their man
ager worked hard to line up affairs i'm
systematic order and to supply the
speakers and literature. He, like Mr..
Brown, insisted at the outset that only
fair and gentlemanly methods be used
and. SO far as we have been able to
Judge, only those methods have pre-
vailed.

Railroads Not Pleased

The ore handling railroads always
like to hear of shipments being started
but they don't want the ore when II
can't be handled rapidly and con-
veniently at the docks The weather
has been exceptionally cold the last
few days and ore freezes as quickly as
1t is dumped on the pile so that 1t will
certainly freeze and make a lot of
trouble in the cars.
The railroads objected to handling
the ore last Thursday but came across
with the cars and ore is being loaded
at the rate of Is cars per day. 1t is un-
derstood that should the weather con-
tinue cold and the ore s-epze badly ln
the docks that the car supply win be
shut Off
The shippers expect to have cargo
in the docks by April 18th when II is
thought navigation on the lower lakes
will be open. At the present time the
ice is reported TO be quite heavy in the
harbors making it quite improbable
that navigation will open before the

The Brewery Agent Fight

The year following The Crystal Falls
action the council at Iron River leant
itself to a fight between local brewery
agents. One agent who had enjoyed
considerable business was opposed by
others who had the major portion OF
the council on their side Many old
liquor dealers at Iron River were de-
MED licenses because they bought beer
from the fellew outside the combine.
A big fight resulted and for part OF
one day Iron River was dry, all be-
cause of the boneheadedness OF the
Iron River liquor dealers themselves.
To cap the climax a saloon was
licensed to do business in building
opposite the residence OF George l..
Woodwork, general manager of the
Rogers Brown interests This natur-
ally aroused Mr. Woodworth's antag-
onism. Mr. Woodwork is opposed to
liquor but he had taken no decided
stand against the traffic to that time.
He's been a prime factor In this con-
test.
All these little incidents taken to-
gether created flame enough to start
the fire OF agitation for local option
election. A petition was circulated
and sufficient signatures secured to
compel the county board to call an
election.

Welfare Association Formed

Even at that late stage OF the game
there was no one very sanguine that
the local option movement would have
any great following. The first week
OF this year a meeting was called at
Crystal Falls and committees appointed
TO carry on the campaign. There was
no clear understanding at that time
as to just what would be the policy.
IL was thought that What's every
body's business Is nobody's business"
in short that the campaign would drag
along in hap hazard way,
There happened 20 be among the
leaders a few men used To managing
big business. Mr.. Woodwo. IN and Chas
r. Lawrence as examples. and they de-
clared for a manager with the result
that Baxter Brown OF Owosso was en-
gagged TO manage the campaign and
the very first thing Mr. Brown did after
he got here was TO organize the Iron
county Welfare Association. This or
ganization was incorporated and took
over the entire campaign Mr. Brown
isahe manager and he manages. too.
Hottest Campaign In State
The hiring OF Mr. Brown put an en-
tirely different phase on the entire
matter BE came here with the pur-
pose Of lighting the llanor traffic and
would listen 10 no other suggestion or
effort His first act was 70 rid the cam
