MIR. BELLS POSITION

Frank ID. Bell OF Negaunee was in
the city last Monday in attendance at
the circuit court. Mr.. Bell is promin-
emily mentioned for district delegate
to the republican national convention
and from all appearances will DO the
unanimous choice OF his district. In
a visit with the reporter for The Dia-
mond Drill Mr.. Bell stated emphat-
ically that he is not candidate in
the sense Of making contest and
canvass for the honor. He states
frankly that should the electors OF
the district select him he will consider
IL great honor and be. very appre-
ciative but under no consideration
will he enter any scramble for the
honor.
II the temper OF republicans in the
other sections OF the district is the
same as that in this section, Mr.. Bells
position will be approved by his being
accorded the honor unanimously.

Editor of The Diamond Drill:
In the early part OF Decem-
Der. you published weather fore
cast stating practically that after the
goth OF December, we should have
an extremely cold winter. This was
based on the condition OF the weather
when the sun crossed the line"
Had It not been our busy season !"
we should have called attention to
the fact that the gentleman who
made the prediction did not notice
that the sun did not follow it's usual
custom OF crossing the line" about
the 21st OF September, but dallied
around until the 26th. The three days
then were warm and balmy days.
Hence when the weather man tells
US IL is 10 be colder" and "stin
colder" we need not be surprised IL
IL is warmer" and "still warmer"
We shall have some cold weather,
there could be no winter for Michi-
