IRON RIVER MERCHANT DEAD

opening OF the "Cloverland Trail and

health. He recently underwent an
operation in Mayo Bros. hospital at

him.

NOMINATED FOR GOVERNOR
There seems to be little doubt now
that Mr.. Diekema will receive the
Republican nomination in the Primary
Election TO be held in August, for
Governor OF this State. although there
are four or FIVE prominent citizens OF
Michigan seeking the nomination. IL
Is almost certain that Mr.. Diekema
will pull heavy vote In Western and
Northern Michigan, which will give
him the nomination by very com
Portable majority Eastern Michigan
and the southern tier OF counties will
be split by the other candidates so
badly, that Mr.. Diekema's nomination
is practically assured. While we have
nothing but kind words for the other
candidates, we are OF the opinion that
Mr.. Diekema will make one OF the best
Governors that Michigan has ever had.
His knowledge OF State and national
affairs will give him prestige and IN
fiuence that few Governors enjoy. He
is great. big, broad-minded, intel
lectual man, and Michigan will be
proud OF him. He has been in public
life since he arrived at the age OF
twenty-one years. and no one can say
that he did not perform the duties of
every trust reposed in him. honestly,
efficiently and well. He Is big enough
to be President. and the voters OF

they elect him Governor OF this

The taxpayers OF the city are paying
sufficient taxes TO enjoy clean side
walks. streets and alleys. The Dia-
mond Drill wishes to call the attention
OF the health officer and street com
missioner TO the condition OF the side
walk alongside the Finnish g. Swedish
Mercantile Company's store and barn.
The management OF this company has
permitted the sidewalk 10 remain
covered with mud. filth and manure
the year around and continues TO
leave it in filthy and unsanitary
condition. although the Mayor of the
city has called the attention OF the
manager of this concern to the
nuisance created by the barn in the
rear OF the store. Under the most
favorable circumstances a barn is a
breeding place for flies and disease,
and unless such a building and its sur
roundings are kept clean and free
from filth and dirt, they become a
menace to the neighborhood, in which
they are located. Fourth street is
the principal avenue to the st. Paul
depot, and the people travelling that
way should not be subjected to the
annoyance of picking their way
through mud and filth, which has been
permitted to accrue and remain on the
sidewalk on the north end OF this pro-
perty. II the management will not
keep the sidewalk clean, and the barn
and grounds around 1t. kept free from
dirt and filth, IL ought to be declared
public nuisance and its use as a barn
yard discontinued In its present con-
ditiion it is danger TO the neighbor-
hood and jeopards the health and lives
of the children in that vicinity.
The Crystal Falls Cooperative
Society, opposite the Finnish & Swed-
ish Mercantile Co. has the same con-
ditions to deal with, but their sidewalk
and alley have been kept clean and
free from dirt and filth, and there is no
excuse that such conditions should
exist on the opposite side of Superior
Avenue in the central part OF the bust
ness district OF the city. AS the
of this company does not
seem TO care about these conditions,
the health officer and street commits
sioner OF the city ought TO take the
matter i'm hand and make this street
as accessible to the public as any other
street or sidewalk in the city, even to
the extent of declaring il a public
nuisance and removing the danger of
sickness and disease, from the very
center Of the city II is an unsightly

Baltimore, Aug. 24.-Johns Hopkins

1t abandoned experiments in use
of the method more than nine months

the method is too dangerous to moth

lifound that it could be safely used only

The question of the proper dose
proved so intricate that absolutely no
chances could be taken. EARLY results
were such that in the subsequent cases
it was deemed necessary to have two
physicians and nurses always at the
bedside.
