ferred TO the support OF the mining
companies of the upper peninsula be-
ing for Newberry Well. let's see.
Mr. Newberry is interested in the
Cleveland-C -Cliffs Mining Co. and II is
but natural that that concern would
be friendly TO him, In fact we under
stand that they are and that they are
interceding for him with the other
companies. However, the day has
gone by when employers can tell
their workingmen how TO vote. While
the friendship OF mining superinten-
dents will certainly help with their
immediate friends, there is not the
perfume OF the annointed to 1t that
radiated therefrom in the days gone
by. Men are voting their convictions
these days, not according TO the die
tates OF someone who has personal
debt TO pay.
The oliver Iron Mining Co, one OF
the largest employers OF labor has
just promulgated a policy that strikes
at political pressure from those in
authority upon those in an inferior
position and that fact alone would in
dicate that the big concerns have
sensed the trend OF events and are
content to get just what they pay for

following. II Henry Ford comes in
he will cut big figure. Men are
giving their attention these days to
winning the war. When the time
to vote comes, they're going to cast
their ballots just as they think bestl
II is a mistake to think that the COM
mon voter hasn't his eye fixed on the
future; that he is not in touch with the
great changes that are coming; that
he isn't weighing in his mind as TO
which candidate will ha thp hest IN

greatly fooled, but it is our opinion
that 1t will take more than a we'll

A TOAST TO ~DEAR OLD DAD.

stood in railway station
Not many days ago,
And witnessed the parting OF father
and son
AS down their cheeks the hot tears
fow,
Anc saw the father clasp his son
With tender embrace TO his breast;
The boy was of to the war, my lads,
and YOU well know the rest.
Just break the news TO mother"
Is song we all love so well,
But who has written OF father?
Who of his sorrows did tell?
What poet has spoken in living words,
OF his suffering at losing his boy?
His sorrow and tears have remained
unsung,
No one has told OF his joy.
OF his JOY and pride in his noble son
AS he kissed him long farewell,
For the boy was off to the war, my
lads,
OF TO that seething hell,
Where many a brave American son
viii give up his life for the flag,
And leave his poor old dad at home
His dreary life to drag.
When you are writing home. my boy
Don't forget your poor old dad,
Just line or two in the letter to Ma
VIII make him feel so glad
To know that his boy is thinking OF
him
While he is praying alone,
That God will protect his own brave
son
Wherever he may roam.
Don't forget your dad, my boy,
When you are away from home,
His heart is always longing for you
And hoping that you'll return.
Whether you travel the land or sea
You are always the same to him,
Whether in the walks of life
Or in the battles din.
Remember his years Of toll, my boy
Remember how he worked for you,
From the very day that you were
born
To the day that you left home,
Always for you he planned, my boy
Always OF you he thought,
Anything to help you speed along
Ii was for that he sought.
His years will soon be run, my boy,
His hair is turning gray,
Some day you'll get telegram
Your dad has passed away"
And then you'll know what you have
lost,
The best pal you ever had,
Deep sorrow then will fill your soul
A longing for dear old dad.

WARNER IN RACE.

Ex-Governor Fred NJ. Warner an
nounced his candidacy for the office
OF U. S. Senator TO succeed william
Alden Smith, the announcement COM
ing to the press during the week.
Mr.. Warner says that he will have
no paid campaign manager, nor does
he look with favor upon a nomination
gained by the lavish expenditure OF
money
He admonishes the people not to
swerye from the work of winning the
war TO consider politics, but TO con-
tinue right on in their effort 20 sell
Thrift Stamps. Liberty Bonds and not
slacken up on Red Cross work. Al
the same time, of course, knock off
long enough on primary day to cast
vote for Fred NJ. Warner for U. S
Senator
Mr.. Warmers entrance into the con
test makes three now in the race:
Chase s. Osborn. Truman II. Newber-
ry and Fred NJ Warner. We have II
from a gentleman who gets his in
formation from Washington that VIM
Alden Smith is about to reconsider
his decision very soon. We are also
told that Henry Ford will not be Q
candidate, but that petitions for his
noiaination will be cirulated and filed
and that Mr.. Ford will pay no at
tcnticn TO them, thus allowing hi.
name to appear upon the primary bal
lot If these things come true, th,
contest will be between five competi
to.s. and FIVE, any one of whom would
make a good senator.
The Diamond Drill is supporting
the nomination OF Chase S. Osborn
and we believe that the people Of Iroi
county are overwhelmingly with him
Mr. Osborn has large following II
the upper peninsula and will, n
doubt make n good race.

Charles W. Fairbanks, vice presi-
dent of the United States under the
Roosevelt administration and one OF
the very prominent men OF the ma
ton, passed from this life at his home
in Indianapolis last Tuesday. Mr..
Fairbanks was born In a log cabin in
Ohio in 1852 and made his way TO
prominence through personal effort.
He was twice nominated for the office
of vice president. The first time he
was elected, but the second time when
he was the running mate OF Mr.. Taft
in 1912. he was defeated. He was one
OF the men whose opinion was taken
in national affairs and his death re-
moves a very prominent public man.

WHOLE WHEAT BREAD
 AGAIN PERMISSIBLE
Bakers Do Not Have to Use Substitutes in
 Flour.

Washington, Nov. 14.--White bread made entirely of wheat flour went back on the Am erican table today aft CT an absence of more than nine months. HousehoIders and bakers, beginning today, are permitted to purchase wheat flour without substi- tutes, the food administration having withdrawn regulations requiring the buying of 20 per cent. of substitutes with each purchase of wheat flour.
 In announcing the withdrawal of the regulations as to substitutes, the food administration gave notice that substitutes i'll the hands of mil1ers, dealers and bakers prior to November 12 and for which a ready sale is not found will be purchased by the Grain corporation under plans now being form u1ated.
 Victory for the allied and Ameri- can forces compelling the surrender of Germany has made possible the elimination of victory bread, food administration officials said in point ing out that Europe now will be able to tap the available supplies of wheat in Australia, India and Argentina.

ND FOOD TO EUROPE
 UNTIL FLEETS DISARM
Allies Must Not Be Hin dered in Slightest
 Degree.

London, Wednesday, Nov. 13.- Problems connected with the policing and provisioning of Russia and the central powers hinge primarily upon the immediate disarmament of the German fleet, the Russian warships held by the Germans and those un- der control of the Ukrainian govern ment in the Black sea. Warships which are held by the Bolshevists in the Finnish gulf also must be put out of commission.
 With freedom of movement in the Black and Baltic seas, the entente powers and the United States will have great difficulty in affOrding eco- homie relief to central Europe, as we'll as Scandinavia. Consequently, the attitude of the German navy to- ward the armistice terms is watched with eagerness by entente officials.
 The United States and the entente powers have shown no disposition to deal with the Bolshevist government. While Russia remains in the control of the Soviet, therefore, there seems to be little hope of feeding Moscow, Petrograd and other large cities there.
 If the Russian Bolshevist movement, which has been started against Fln- land. should be successful, Finland also would be placed temporarily be- yond relief

GREAT OPPORTUNITY FOR THANKSGIVING Governor HolCOmb Sets Aside
 November 28 as Day URGES BETTER LIVING
Chief Executive of State Says Rarely, If Ever, Has State Had Such Deep Causes for Thanking Diety. .. .....

Hartford, Conn.,, Nov. 14.-Gov ernor Marcus H. Holcomb today is sued the usual Thanksgiving proc lamation, setting apart Thursday. November 2S. He says:
 Rarely, if ever, in all the long his tory of this commonwealth, has a time called for so deep and sincere an outpouring of thanks to the God of the nations. It is He Whose hand has now placed the crown of victory upon our just cause: but, more than the material victory, it is He who has breathed into the souls of men the spirit without which our triumph would be but the hectic flush over the ashes of a sure defeat; who has opened the eyes of these our new crusaders to see, above the murk of battle, the leading of His cross, and to hear, beneath the cannons roar, the still, small voice of His calling; Who has comforted the hearts of those who sorrow for loved ones lying forever beneath the shell torn fields of France with the certain Knowledge that all the profits of life weighs nothing against the richness of such a death; Who has instilled into this whole peo- pie such fair vision of right and honor and justice, such willingness to do and bear, as only this age has ever seen. These are the things that most should bring the glow to our thoughts. But thanks for yesterday and for today are empty that hold no promise for tom orroW. I would that high tide of triumphant rejoicing should roll our over the land on that day, November the Twenty eighth, which now, by old custom, designate as day of Thanksgiving
 Urges Better Living.
 But beneath that triumphant paean, would that there might sound a deep undertone of promise; l would that it's true note should be an un- altering resolve that, in the chan ging times to come, the spirit of the dark days so newly passed should carry us on, to make clear the way of justice for all men and peoples to mould our strength to the help of the weak, to salve the deep wounds of war with the healing of an effective sym pathy. Truly it is only so that we can pay the full measure of deyo- tion to those who have died, or, living are burdened now with suffering. that We might have peace and safety and happiness

RECONSTRUCTION PLANS
Indications Are That Special Com mission Will Work Out "FTom War tO Peace" Problems.

Washington, Nov. 14.--Reconstruc- tion problems may be worked out under the direction and on the ad- vice of a special commission. Presi- dent Wilson, it was understood to- day. is considering the appointment of such a commission.
 The commission would lay down inc broad lines under which the na- tion would be converted from war to peace basis. It would act largely as an advisory board. Executive func- tions would be in the hands of de- Dartments now in operation. It's membership would be representative of the social, industrial, commercial, labor and agricultural interests in vOlVed.
 It was said today the secretaries of war and navy and the chairmen of the two congressional appropria- tions committees probably will be members of the special commission. The first announcement of the ad- 1ninistration's program may be made known in the presidents annual message to congress in December.
