President Wilson took a step yes
terday that is epoch-making. He
placed the railroads OF this nation
under the management of VIM Nc
Adoo. secretary of the treasury, TO be
operated during the war in the inter
est OF the federal government
This step has been presaged for a
long time. The selfishness OF the diff

get the efficiency out OF the roads that
Is needed Under the new order all
lines will be operated a. one system.
There will be no special zones OF bus
mess priority; everyone will be treat
ed alike and every line will get It's
deserts.
The arrangement guarantees to
each line the average profits returne
for the three years 1915, 1916 and
1917. 1t further provides that when
the roads are turned back they will
be in as good condition as when TAX

The roads will continue to be oper-

Claim that Henry IIolstein Attempted
TO Hold Up Mail Carrier.


The greatest surprise that Crystal
Falls has had in long time was a re-
port from the Marquette range last
Saturday that Henry Holstein, who
was employed at the American mine
in the capacity OF head electrician. at
tempted 70 iold mp a mail carrier last
Saturday and that ne actually did
rifle the mail sack and take thereform
$1,000 shipped by an Ishpeming bank
TO the store at Diorite.
In addition TO taking the money
tile assailant shot and badly wounded
the mail carrier, an elderly man. The
holl-up occurred about noon time 81
the pubic road between Clarksburr
and the American mine and at best
the attempt was that OF an idiot. Tna
wounded man says that as he was
driving along the road with his mail
he overlook Holstein who asked for a
ride. Holstein got on the rig and af-
ter riding about 100 feet he called 10
the carrier to stop his team, which he
did. Holstein then pointed revolver
at him and told him to get down from
the seat, and In the mix-up a shot was
fired that entered the mail carriers
cheek and lodged back of the eye. The
mail carrier started To run and anoth-
er shot was fired, striking the mail
carrier In the shoulder. Another shot.
the third one. struck the coat OF the
mail man, but didn't hit his body.
A school teacher came along and
found the wounded mail carrier a few
minutes later and gave the alarm.
When assistance arrived the mail car
rier told the men that "Heinie" had
shot him, and the officers went at once
to the American mine where they
found Holstein at work and placed
him under arrest He maintained his
innocence and when confronted by tho
wounded man and positively identifi-
ed, he still maintained his innocence.
portion of the money $3.50 in bills
was found IN the snow short distance
from the scene Of the hold-up. the
balance of the $4,000 was found Sc
creted in the compressor room Of the
American mine engine house later.
The implication of Henry Holstein
in this attempted murder and robbery
was a great blow to his friends here.
and az the American mine. He was a
model young man IN every way and
his actions cannot be accounted for.
Holstein Is held in Marquette conn
~ Jail to await a hearing next month.
lie still maintains his innocence.
LATER Since putting the forego-
ing into type some things came up
that may cause many 10 believe Hol-
stein has been wrongfully accused. 4
thorough investigation Is being made
and If it appears that he is innocea
there will be plenty OF friends to take
up his case.
There are so many stories ahoat
that It is hard TO separate the kernel
from the chaif and ohe must wait
awhile before forming an opinion. III
the claims that are now being made
are true II would have been physical
impossibility for Holstein TO have
committed the crime. The claims may
or may not be true His Crystal Falls
nelghbors and friends hope that they
a;e true. for they hate to believe him
guilty.

PRESERVE BEAUTY
OF GLOW. TRAIL
HON. VIM. KELLY WANTS ACTION
TAKEN BEFORE 1T IS TOO LATE
MUCH BEAUTY BEING SPOILED
Cutting of Timber is Turning a
Beautiful Drive Into One of Bar
reness and HomIiness

A few weeks ago we mentioned the
suggestion, offered originally by Hon.
VIM Kelly Of Vulcan, chairman Of the
publ domain commission, for the
preservation OF the beauties OF the
"CloyeI land Trail" Mr. Kelly has
been consistent advocate OF some
action being taken on this subject By
the counties of Iron and Gogebic in
which the bulk of the timber and
beautiful stretches lie.
Gogebic county has already taken
action in this matter and has appoint
ed county park commission with the
intention of making start along the
lines suggested by Mr.. Kelly. 1t is
up to Iron county to declare itself IN
favor or against similar action. and
one citizen of the county, Charles +
Lawrence of Palatka, declares him
self in no unmistakable terms i'm fav-
or Of taking action to preserve these
beauties.
Mr.. Lawrence's Suggestion.
In letter to The Diamond Drill Mr.
Lawrence says:
Mr.. Thomas Conlin,

weeks, Hon. William Kelly of Vulcan

made out in Iron and Gogebic coun-
tie, requesting the commission To
purchase a strip of land on each side
of the roadway OF the Cloverlanl
Trail between Crystal Falls and

ages Of having the trail" keep up It's
reputation, and which Is due largely.

Proper Food for Weak Stomachs.

The proper food for one man may
be all wrong for another. Every one
should adopt a diet suited to his age
and occupation. Those who have weak
stomachs need to be especially careful
and should eat slowly and masticate
their food thoroughly. 1t is also i'm
portant that they keep their bowels
regular. When they become constipat-
ed or when they feel dull and stupid
after eating~ they should take Cham
berlain's Tablets to strengthen the
stomach and move the bowels. They
are easy to take and pleasant in eff
feet. For sale by A. G. Philip.

are talking Of requesting Mayor Law
