ECHOES OF ELECTION.
Legal Battle Promised at Iron Noun
tlan Over Mayor.

Word from Iron Mountain says that
there Is a lengthy and bitter legal
struggle In prospect there over the
action of the election board in throw
ing out some 20 ballots which contain
ed Joe Eslick's slips last Monday.
Mr.. Esliek was running against
John Andrews for mayor making the
run via the slip" route He was the
only candidate running on slips, and
when the votes were being counted /,
was found that some 20 ballots con-
tanning Eslick's slips were defective
for the reason that some OF the slips
were not crossed. some were upside
down and some pasted in the wrong
place. All such ballots were thrown
out and as result Andrews won by
80 votes.
Those opposed TO Andrews say that
the voters showed their l-tention IN
voting Eslick's slips and that the
majority of the electors wanted Eslick
instead OF Andrews, therefore there is
to be recount and legal battle.

Will Succeed II. X. Hoopingarner As
Agent for Iron County.

The resignation OF III. II. Hoopin-
garner, a mention OF which was made
in these columns last week. was pre-
sented 10 the county board last Sat-
urday and accepted.
Z Mr.. Hoopingarner resigned because
OF the necessity for his returning to
his home in lower Michigan. He re-
GREETED very much the necessity for
taking the step, but the call was inn
perative.
Iron county loses very valuable
man In Mr.. Hoopingarner and his 60
ing will be especially felt at this par
ticular time when he has perfected
so many plans and got SO many prof.
ects we'll along the way towards frui-
tion. He was right in the midst OF q
county organization plan when COM
PEELED to quit that will mean great
deal 10 the county II followed out.
Mr.. Weston ~ Marquette, came here
on Monday and a consultation was
held with the agricultural board about
Mr.. Hoopingarners successor. Mr..
Hoopingarner recommended Professor
Long, who has had the training, and
who, so far as education is concerned,
is fully equipped to take up the work
where Mr.. Hoopingarner dropped 1t.
Prof. Long has been in touch with
the plans OF the county agent for the
past year and can step into the posi-
tion better than a stranger can. AL
OF these conditions were canvassed
carefully by the committee and 1t was
decided to appoint Mr.. Long to the
position If the Crystal Falls school
board would agree to release him.
The school board met that afternoon
and granted his release.
The county agent is also an agent
! OF the U s. government. and receives
a portion OF his salary from that
source, so that the government Is in
terested In the appointment.
We under stand that Mr.. Long viii
take up the work next week and keep
right on in the path that Mr.. Hoop
ingarner has blazed. The latter has
been with the new agent this week
giving him what aid be could 10 get
started in the work.

addition TO the supper, four pianos
are at the disposal OF the soldiers.

BIG TURNOUT SATURDAY.
Crystal Falls Gave Departing Boys q
Rousing Farewell Reception.

The last quota OF the first call for
men from Iron county TO fill the ma
tional army left Crystal Falls last
Western railroad.
There were forty-six In the conting-
ent that left and most OF them were
from Stambaugh township, Palatka
having furnished more men than any
other part OF the county. The num-
ber from Crystal Falls was remark
ably small, but Alpha donated anoth-
er contingent that places her well up
in proportion TO the whole number OF
the population OF Mastodon township.
The city began to fill up with peo-
pie from all over the county early in
the forenoon. Iron River and STAN
baugh was well represented here, the
Iron River fire truck coming over
early in the day with full load and
remained here until the boys left In
the evening.
The drafted men were taken care OF
by the local board, Tom Henley OF
Iron River taking charge OF the squad.
The men were fed at the different ho-
tells OF the city, and about 500 o'clock
the Corrigan- Mckinney band came
marching down from their headquar-
ters and played several selections on
the city hall corner after which a
procession was formed with the band
leading, followed by the recruits and
hundreds of citizens following in
their wake. The procession headed
for the Northwestern station where a
walt OF about 20 minutes were had be-
fore the boys boarded the train. Dur
ing the wait the band played patriotic
airs and goodbyes were said by the
many relatives and friends The train
pulled out on time amid cheering, to
meet the main line train at Stager
where the coach holding the Iron
county contingent was attached TO the
main line train and hauled TO Powers
AT that point IL was attached TO the
Chicago passenger train which had
the Delta and Schoolcraft boys aboard
and at Menominee the recruits from
that place were picked up.
The contingent leaving here Satur-
day contained several prominent
young men Of the county. among them
Tom Henley and Arthur Nassau OF
Iron River. Lester Sagen OF Crystal
Falls and others who have been born
and reared in our midst The boys
went 10 Camp Custer and, IL is quite
probable that September will see then
in France.
