CALLED FOR HEARING.
State Game Commission Considering
Continuance Of Partridge Ran.

Iron county has asked that the
killing of partridge be prohibited
within its bounds for another year.
Like action has been taken by so
many counties in the upper peninsula
that Commissioner Baird will hold a
public hearing in Marquette, August
IL. to listen to arguments for and
against the proposal to extend the
closed season on partridge for anoth-
er year.
All but two OF the fifteen counties
In the upper peninsula have petitions
for an extension OF the closed season
and Il Is expected the other two will
fall in line.
II Is quite probable that the game
department will extend the closed
season, as proposed. Before this may
be done. however. II is necessary that
the game commissioner receive the
sanction OF the supervisors in each
county affected. and also that he con-
duct public hearing on the ques-
tion. No particular opposition TO the
extension OF protection Of partridge
by law has come to light so far, and
II is forecast that the hearing will
show a general disposition on the part
OF the public to follow the wishes OF
the game department.

PETITION HASBEEN DRAWN UP
FOR GENERAL CIRCULATION
MAY CHANGE IT TO RECALL
Sponsors Are Not Satisfied With
City Manager and Mayor and
Want Removal of Both

The word got whispered about
town during the early days OF the
week that there was something doing
in city affairs; that a surprise was
to be sprung that would turn things
upside down.
With this cue TO follow Diamond
Drill reporter started to find out
what was on. 1t took him several
hours to get starting point and
then the information he got was very
meagre; simply that move was on
foot to amend the charter of the city
of Crystal Falls.
Soon afterwards he struck the first
real clue when a citizen OF the place
informed him that movement was
on foot TO institute recall OF the
city commission. The only reason
that said citizen had heard given
was the anxiousness OF some OF the
citizens TO remove City Manager
Sanders. and to do that IL was ne
cessary to get" Mayor Bridges. He
also learned that Atty, Fred II ABB
bott was doing the legal work, and
that the person who was taking the
lead in the move was Mr.. Ernest Wal
back of Maple Grove.
Abbott Gives Information.
The reporters next move was TO
call upon Mr.. Abbott who frankly ac-
knowledged that a move to amend
the charter was in the air and that
he had been engaged as an attorney
to do the legal work; that he had
prepared the petition and had dellv-
cred II to its sponsors.
Mr.. Abbott, when questioned as to
the form OF the amendment, stated
that 1t practically restored the old
lorm OF BONernuent.
He didn't disclose the names OF
those responsible for the move,
claiming that TO do so would be dis
c.osing professional secerts. He
added. however, that the reasons
given him by the sponsors of the
movement were many and varied and
that some OF them were valid ones
They were, I'm a general way. the
neglect OF the water supply, which
was characterized to him as pump
ing typhoid fever into homes" the
neglect OF the maintenance OF the
electric light wires whereby pri-
mary current is being run into
homes. the neglect OF Fifth stree.
