PUBLIC FORUM.
To Editor Diamond Drill:

To Editor Diamond Drill:
In reading the Iron River Repor-
ter OF last week | notice an article
from the pen Of Mr. p. O'Brien bear
ing down pretty heavy upon the Iron
county poor commission attempting
to show carelessness on their part
regarding those flu cases throughout
the county
He says he doesn't know just whose
duty it is to get busy on those cases.
Now, Pat, l would suggest you as
one OF our Honorable Law Makers
should know just who should take
care OF an epidemic such as we
now have In our county. On the au-
thority OF our prosecuting attorney
Mr. Moriarty, / will take 1t upon my.
self to inform you IL Is clearly up to
the township and city boards OF
health TO look after and take care OF
the present epidemic and all such
cases. Also TO pay the expenses o
such case. from the township funds.
You try to tell the public that ev-
! cry person has been careless. Now
as far as the poor commission Is con
cerned we deny that we have acted
careless in any particular, having nc
knowledge of those cases.
You claim that when asked to look
after those cases we said we could
not do anything until we had our
meeting on Monday. This Is an un.
truth. Also that we could not spend
over $4,000 on any particular case
This also is untrue.
The facts Of The rehtoga cases are
as follows: AS soon as this case was
reported, Mr. Sholander, our inyesti-
gator, took the train for Pentoga
When he arrived there he found the
place quarantined. lie went to Mr.
Harnahan. their grocer. and was In.
formed that he was supplying then
with necessaries chat they needed
A case was reported last week
from the Caspian location where {
man had died and the mother was IL
a hospital at Iron River. Mr.. Sho
lander went over TO investigate and
found that the mother and two child
rem were in the hospital, and tina
two children were left in the home
lie found a temporary home for tn,
children, and he Is at this writing
over on the west side OF the county
to make, IL possible, arrangements L
have those children cared for. This
looks little different from your
version OF your untruthful article.
Friend Pat, you should look be
fore you jump.

by the candidates friends, relatives
or business associates, are consider
ed as coming from the candidate him
self.
Under the Oregon law candidates
are barred from buying whole pages
of newspaper space to provide their
candidacy and high-priced publicity
agents are barred. All literature is
put out by the secretary of state in
pamphlet form and is paid for at
certain rates.
For instance, the price to be paid
for a page in the state campaign book
by candidate for United States sena-
tor IS 500. Members Of congress and
most all state officers pay the same
rate. Not more than four pages are
given to any one candidate.
Thirty days before the primary the
candidate or his friends may send his
cut and typewriter statement to the
, secretary OF state setting forth his
reasons for seeking the Office for
which he aspires. Any person or per-
sons opposing the candidate may with
in the same time, file for printing in
the state campaign book statement
over their signatures, setting forth
their reasons why the candidate should
not be nominated.
Books Sent TO Voters.
Thirteen days prior to the primary
the books are printed by the state
printer and distributed to the regis
tered voters according to party af-
hliation, by the county clerks. In the
general election each political party
Is allowed twenty-four pages, and in
dependent candidates two pages. The
| rate for the general election Is $50 a
page.
Senator-elect Baker says this meth
cd OF campaigning gives the candi'

chance with the millionaire and he
will make a strenuous tight to have
the Oregon system adopted by the
Michigan legislature.

EIGHTY.FIFTH COMING HOME.
Division in Which Most OF Our Sol.
dlers Are Is Slated TO Return.

The major portion of the men who
left Iron county are in the S5th di-
vision and the regiment which is
primarily upper peninsula men is
the 337th. The S5th and the Dixie
division has the greatest interest to
Iron county people and fully 80 per
cent Of our men are with those two
divisions, the S5th containing much
| the larger number as II is that divis-
ion that was formed at Camp Custer.
The S5th went across last July and
most OF its units have been in train
ing all over France behind the lines.
but some small portion has seen
service and one regiment was divert
cd 10 Russia and constitutes a large
portion OF the force at Archangle
The whereabouts OF the division
has been kept a secret until very re-
Gently when 1t was given out that the
S5th was depot division and was
located at Toul, but subsequent in
formation shows that Toul was only
the nominal headquarters for the di-
| vision had been scattered all over

Russia.

A COUNTY HEALTH OFFICER.

The Diamond Drill can endorse the
announcement OF the Iron River
StambaugS Reporter for some county
agency to have the direction OF fights
against the spread of contagious dis
eases in the county. We have always
thought that because OF the county
being called upon to pay the bills in
such cases II ought to have something
to say as to how the money is TO
be spent. Under the present law the
county has not that power. The To-
cal health authorities have that say
and we have noticed that, as a general
proposition, when an agency isn't re-
sponsible to some higher authority II
isn't at all careful in the way IT
spends money.
We cannot, however, follow the Re
porter in Us charges against the poor
commissioners until we have more
than street rumQr as 70 the truth o.
said complaints. III the statement OF
the commission Is TO be credited-and
we have never known Robert Munns
to tell a falsehood-the Reporter
wronged the commissioners and ought
to either make its charges stand up
or gracefully acknowledge that it was
in error.
We believe that the commission Is
trying TO do its duty as 1t sees 1t and
that its superintendent, Mr.. Sholand
err, is conscientious and careful man.
We know that he spends most OF his
time on the Iron River side of the
county and he ought to be well ac-
quainted with conditions there. The
flu epidemic is something outside OF
the jurisdiction of the commission. Il
cannot be held for occurrences aris-
ing under that epidemic. In cases
need arising from the flu, the COM
mission has jurisdiction and should
be held TO a faithful performance OF
its duty. If, as the Reporter claimed,
assistance was denied some needy pa
tient, the commission is certainly
is guilty OF negligence. First, how
ever, let's be sure that aid was re-
fused or the commission was lax in
attending to its duties. II is well
known that the persons having pub
lie funds for distribution are the sub
ject Of all kinds of attacks by those
who would impose upon the public

THE TELEPHONE INCREASE

In our neYs columns we make men
ton of an action taken by the Mar
quette board OF supervisors to oppose
the Michigan Telephone Company in
its efforts 10 raise rates in their
county. The company has appealed
to the railroad commission OF the
state for permission to raise the rates
throughout the state outside of the
city OF Detroit. The company and
Detroit went to the mat over year
ago and as result OF their victory
in the metropolis OF the state the
company has been emboldened to
seek further raises.
The principal objection that Crys-
tai Falls people have to the PROPOSE
ton TO the raise is that service will
not increase in efficiency with the
increase in rates In fact the tele.
phone company service is a very fine
example OF inverse ratio.
And, it isn't the fault of the tele-
phone girls or Of the local managers
yes, or the district eth
er. They are doing the best they
can with the wages that they are al
lowed TO pay. Just as soon as a girl
gets 50 that she can manipulate the
board in fairly good shape so that d
subscriber doesn't have TO spend most
OF his time waiting for central Il
answer or doesn't run chances OF
having his hearing all shot to pieces
from some central girl ringing Ia his
ear she disappears from the central
ONCE for some reason or other. VIZ
cant figure up how many different
girls the Crystal Falls central has
had Ia its employ during the last year
takes too long 10 count The girls
all give the same reason for quitting
they don't pay enough" Inquiry
developes that girls are paid from
S22 to $50 per month. according 4
! their length OF service. one cant
very well blame girls for not wanting
TO stay at that wage.
The company says that it needs tn,
money. Perhaps II does. We all need
money, but we can't get 1t BY simpl,
going to the railroad commission and
putting up hard luck story. Be.
sides, the war Is over and that rea.
son can't be advanced for wanting ar
increase.
We don. object to the three dollar
Increase in our rates, but we would
like TO have the increase made condh
tional to the company paying its
help high enough wage so that
subscriber may have the privilege o.
hearing the same voice more than on,
time from central. Iron county will
undoubtedly, follow Marquette's ex
ample and appoint it's representatlv,
In the legislature to represent this
county. Mr.. o'Brien get busy and Sc,
II you can't induce the poor, old Mich
igan State Telephone Co. to add few
dollars per month to the wages OF tn,
girls in the central at Crystal. Falls
and Iron River. They need Il. ant
We need them on the job for longel
tenures.
