uNGRATEFUL CRYSTAL FALLS.

The city attorneyship OF Crystal
Falls has at last been settled, but at
what a price. For weeks Mayor Can
ney has been appointing Atty. Clar-
ence Dryer city attorney, and as reg
uIarly the council has turned the ap-
pointment down. In our Crystal
Falls department will be found the
Diamond Drills announcement OF
what took place at the last meeting
OF the council, when that august body
finally acquiesced in the mayors Sc
lection OF Charles II. Watson for city
attorney.
Previous to Nj Watson's appoint
ment and. approval by the council
Mayor Gaffney appointed II. II. Nor
iarty city attorney. He made the APP
pointment as a compromise, in order
10 end all further reflections by the
council, but what was his surprise
when the council by vote of four To
two refused TO concur in the appoint
ment of Mr.. Moriarty. Mr., Moriarty
did not want the office and only al
the request OF his friends did be con
sent to allow his name to go before
the council.
II was the most unkindest cut o.
all. for IL there Is one man In th'
city of Crystal Falls who ought to o'
recognized at every stage of the game
that one man is Mike Moriarty. HI
has always been the best friend tina
city has ever had and the city ha
certainly shown its ungratfulness u
turning down his appointment es
peclally as it came to him unsciicit

In the selection Of Mr. Watson tn
city has secured a good guardian o
it's interests, as he is well fitted 10
the duties Of the ofiice.-Pat o'Briel

Woodwork Ticket Not Accepted.

The school election on Monday
brought out the largest vote cast at
school election in several years,
Notwithstanding there was no opposi-
ton.
The board OF election commission
ers at the meeting held last Friday
evening refused to accept the Wood
worth ticket, mention OF which was
made in The Reporter last week, or
the grounds that John Counihan,
whose name appeared on both tick
cts nominated, would not designate
which ticket he desired to run on.
AS the board had not accepted the
Woodwork ticket Mr.. Counihan
states that he could not consistently
withdraw from either ticket until he
knew whether the board was going
10 accept both tickets, and the board
refused to state what 1t intended to
do until he had made a decision. This
Mr.. Counihan refused TO do, for had
he decided TO take his name of the
McGillis ticket and allowed 1t to re
main on the Woodwork ticket and
the board refused to accept the latter
ticket, as it did later, he would then
be on no ticket, for the board could
put some other name in the place
OF his name, as IL did in the case oi
Or. Kofmehl, who was not eligible.
Notwithstanding there was no op
position the election was spirited

Merchants OF Crystal Falls are Of
the opinion that high tide in food
prices has been reached. They be-
lieve that it will not be long before

STOCK LETTER By R. Allyn Lewis

All the stocks affected by the radical amendment adopted by the senate finance committee, under which excess pl ofitS must pay almost double the amount they were obligated to pay, were subjected this morning to the most violent liquidation that they have had to endure yet. No doubt the fact that the exchange was closed down at 12 noon and the sellers knew that they only had two hours in which to act contributed an element of weak ness. But, at all events, starting off with little feature and continuing dull for the first half hour selling move ment suddenly developed which brought the old line war shares, the Steels and others dangerously near the stage of collapse. The liquidation con verged upon stocks of companies which figure among the corporations whose net incomes have gone up 300 per cent since the war. Issues like Alcohol and Texas Company literally broke wide open. The Steel and Cop per groups were driven down 2 to 3 points. The most disconcerting fea- ture of all was a 3-point spread on enormous selling in United States Steel, this on the eve of the stock sell
 ing eX- dividend. The railway list was not so weak, but shares of the East ern, companies were noticeably under pressure.
