The diamond drill. (Crystal Falls, Iron County, Mich.) 1887-1996, 1916-06-24
SAYS WE DID HIM WRONG

A friend OF The Diamond Drill, liv-
ing at Iron River, calls our attention
to an item that appeared in these col
umns several months ago telling OF
the raid made upon a club room run
by A. c. Brace In the communication
the fact that Mr.. Brace was dismis-
sed upon the motion Of the prosecut-
ing attorney this week is cited as
evidence that we were misinformed
at the time OF the arrest Of Mr. Brace.
The fact that Mr.. Brace is az present
the owner of stock farm at Iron
River and that he is devoting his time
TO that work and Is favorably regard
ed by Iron Rivers business men IL al
so pointed out.
This paper has no intention OF mis-
representing Mr.. Brace or any othc~
person. We printed the item as re
ported with no malice. Even IL the
item was correct in all of its details,
the fact that Mr. Brace is now engaged
in the business that he is would be
sufficient I'm our estimation. to merit
him good word. II seems that we
were misinformed at the time.

MASS MEETING TONIGHT
Called For the Purpose OF Consider
Ing Extension Of City Limits

mass meeting will be held to-
night in the City Hail auditorium, at
500 o'clock y. m, for the purpose OF
getting the peoples ideas in regard
70 their attitude on the proposition OF
extending the limits of this city so
as to include much valuable property
now lying without the limits.
This is a matter of great import
ance 10 every resident in Crystal
Falls as IL means, IL carried, that II
will add to the taxable property OF
this city some s2,O0O.O 900 worth OF tax
able property not now included in the
city limits This should also go a
great ways to help lessen the burden
OF taxation 10 residents OF the city and
make possible improvements that are
now beyond our reach.
Every taxpayer in the city should
arrange TO be present at this meeting
tonight as II is the last chance and
only hope OF bringing this about.

RUMOR or TROUBLE

III press reports can be depended
upon, 1t looks as II outside agitators
have succeeded in getting the ear OF
some Of the workingmen OF the Me-
sabi range and unless the better
judgment of the conservative element
predominates serious trouble may re-
suit.
The business men OF the Mesabi
and the citizens in general fear
the worst and are using every effort
TO avert t. Remembering the hard
ships that came TO their copper coun-
try brothers when outside agitators
succeeded I'm causing a strike In that
section; when workingmen who want
ed 10 work were denied that privilege
and thousands OF women and children
suffered the pangs OF hunger and pri-
vation, the better class Of the Mesabi
workingmen are working hard 10
stem the tide that has been SET in mo-
tion by similar agitators in that sec
tion. This element has the enthusias-
tic support OF the business men of
the Mesabi and the more optimistic
believe they will succeed.
AS there are no wage differences i'm
volved. the mining companies are re-
ported 10 be determined 10 resist the
influences OF these outsiders and
should the matter be forced TO an Is
sue a long and bitter struggle is
prophesied in which the innocent
workingmen and the women and child
rem OF all Of the workers will be the
sufferers
While there Is no evidence OF the
trouble spreading to other sections,
yet It Is well TO keep weather eve
open and discourage any effort TO
bring misery in these prosperouf
times TO these mining communities.

CATCHING UP ON ORDERS
Steel Plants Producing at Rate Of
More Than 10000 Annually

A summary OF the operations of the
steel plants indicate that the present
output is on a basis Of more than 40.-
100000 tons annually. They are set
ting new records. and are now re-
ported to be catching up on some OF
their deferred contracts.
Though there has been lull in new
business, manufacturers are now con-
cerned, as most of them have con
tracts that will keep their plants in
full operation up to the end OF the
year. Domestic business is good and
inquiries from abroad are being re-
ceived steadily. Most of the inquiries
of the past two or three weeks have
been for 1917 delivery. Many OF the
mills have been exceeding their esti-
mates in making deliveries. The Illi-
nois Steel company of Chicago ship
ped 100000 tons Of steel during May.
a record for a month.
The opinion Is expressed by prom
inent steel men that the prices have
about reached the top. Bessemer
steel bars for early shipment can now
be bought at concessions from recent
quotations. The pig iron market is
easier to the extent of twenty-five TO
fifty cents a ton. The chief interest
in the pig iron market is now center
ing in export trade, additional in
quiries from France and Italy having
come to hand.
A material casing up in the market
in structural steel has been noted dur
ing the past month. High steel prices
are reported to have caused the with
drawal of number OF builders from
the market recently considerable
structural work having been aband-
oned, or deferred. Provided price con-
cessions are made. IL is believed that
much of this deferred work will be
proceeded with this season.

U. r.. MAY CARRY GUNS
II Is Probable that an Armed Force
May be Organized In this City

A resolution provided for the adop-
tion of the plan of requiring the mem
bers of the Uniform Rank companies
of the Knights of Pythias to carry
firearms instead OF swords is in the
hands of the local company and is be-
ing considered. This plan seems to be
meeting with favor throughout the
state and in fact in the whole coun-
try. Only two towns in the state
where there is such an organization
have they neglected to sign the reso-
luton.
This resolution will be presented
for adoption at the supreme assembly
which will be held in Cleveland next
month. Several changes will be ne
eessary to provide to the use OF rifles
in drilling.
The Michigan companies will take
no part in the organization OF rifle
clubs. but will act as independent or
ganizaIions.

sTAMBAUGH s-CRYsTAL FALLS 2

Crystal Falls fans had a chance TO
witness the first game of the season
in this city, last Sunday, when the
Stambaugh team came over to play
with a pickup team OF old time play
ers.
The game turned out to be an in
teresting one from start to finish,
both teams being quite evenly match
ed. Considering the fact that this was
the local boys first get-together in
base ball. they did remarkably well,
as Stambaugh has played several
games this year and has a pretty
good team. Ike Oswald was in the
box for the local boys and pitched a
good game Ben Dustin held down
the receiving end in good shape.
Tomorrow the crack team of AL
pha will play with the locals at the
Athletic park in this city and the
game gives promise TO be even more
interesting than the one played last
Sunday. Turn out and see Alpha's
crack team perform. Alpha lost only
one game this year and that in a
twelve inning battle with the crack
Niagara team.
