The committee named above was ap-
pointed for the purpose OF making an
examination OF the tax rolls OF the
east side OF Iron county and appor-
tioning stock in a proposed memorial
and community center building. said
building to include a hotel for the
benefit OF the travelling public. The
movement was promoted by the Louis
Bowman Post OF the American Legion
at it's last meeting when the Legion
members OF the committee were ap-
pointed: the committee OF citizens was
appointed at a mass meeting held
Tuesday evening.
What The Legion Seeks To Do
The east side OF Iron county sent
600 Of the 1900 men that left Iron
county for service in the army. or
that number $50 went from Crystal
Falls These boys left four OF their
number In France and one passed a
way before he could get across, Had
the war lasted another month, many,
many more OF them would now be ly-
ing under the sod in France as one
division that contained several hum
dred Iron county boys were to go i'm
to action the day the armistice was
signed Not one OF them shirked and
had they paid the supreme sacrifice
they would have done so gladly. know
ing that the honor OF their home,
friends. neighobors and relatives was
rested with them. They did their
best.
They were spared to us They are
back. They believe that some daily
reminder OF their dead comrades and
what they did is due them. They want
to preserve the ties made in the army
through permanent home which they
may call their own and which they
may enjoy all through their lives; they |
want TO perpetuate the memory OF
their departed: they have set upon the |
most needed thing with which to per-
petuate this memory--a hotel and
community building.
These boys are the coming men of
affairs; they have already done some
thing; they are the logical ones to do
some more. So. they attempt a task |
that many others have failed at.
The most necessary thing for the |
east side OF Iron county is hotel and |
community building in Crystal Falls.
A hotel where the travelling public
may be taken care Of; a community |
building where the people and espec-
tally the soldier boys from all sections
OF the dist and from other places may
have place 20 meet and feel at home

TO ARRANGE FOR THE CARE OF
"FLoATINcTNflUEKzAy VICTIMS
ARRANGED TWO HOSPITALS
One at Iron River and the Other al
Crystal Falls Under the County
Boards Directions

board OF supervisors was held at III,
clerks Office in the court house las
Saturday evening for the purpose o.
considering the care OF "fioaters" who
may be stricken with influenza while
in the county.
BY "hoaters" is meant those who arc
coming and going in the woods OF
mines with no permanent home and nc
one to care for them excepting the
public in case they are stricken with
the flu.
Iron River has a great deal OF this
type OF workmen owing to the number
erous lumber operations that are In
progress in that vicinity. The vic
Tins are usually lumber Jacks who
have no home. They cannot stay in
the camps where they are at work and
no one will care for them In the towns
The hospitals are filled with regular
patients OF the community and cannot
be expected to leave the home folks
out in the cold to care for the fioater.
Thus. the condition OF these homeless
men are pathetic IL they happen to be
stricken.
Not Many Cases of the Kind
There are not many cases OF the kind
but II looked last Saturday night as
though there might be lots OF them so
the county board thought best to pro-
vide for the contingency before II a
rose. Crystal Falls is well fixed to
take care of such emergencies as
there are two hospitals here and gem
orally one OF them can be had by the
county for purposes OF the kind. Last
year st. Erick's hospital was taken
over entirely by the county and this
year arrangements were made with
DR.. Larson for the use OF part OF the
hospital for flu cases OF this kind.
Iron River. however. is not well fix
ed in the hospital line. That place is
as badly off for hospital accommoda-
tions as Crystal Falls is for hotel ac-
The supervisors gave
he subject of hospital considerable at
tention and when they adjourned they |
had not definitely fixed upon a place !
but the matter was left in the hands |
Of committee which was empowered
10 look up quarters.

Republican Contention
History of Of Years

THE fourteenth Republican national
1 convention again went to Chicago
and met June 16, 1908. Roosevelt
bad announced to the country on the
night OF his election in November,
1904. that he would not be a candi-
date 10 succeed himself. Theoreti-
cally. this left an open field
But actually, the fact that president
Roosevelt favored his secretary, Of
war for the succession, gave william
Howard Taft OF Ohio vantage which
rreeaged the inevitable result This
assurance was in no degree lessened
by the fact that Frank II. Hitchcock
undertook the management OF Taft's
campaign

gan was temporary chairman, and
senator Henry Cabot Lodge OF Alassa-
chusetts was permanent chairman In

quent reference TO Roosevelt started
a demonstration which lasted the
greater part OF an hour, undoubtedly
intended TO stampede the convention
in his favor
But one roll call ultimately SUI
feed to settle the issue, for on that
roll call Taft received 702 out OF a
total OF 979. His nearest competitors
were senator Knox Of PennsylYania,
with 6Ss governor Hughes OF New
York, with g., and speaker Cannon
with IS. Fairbanks received 40 votes
senator Foraker OF Ohio. Is; senator

The presidency was likewise
settled on a single ballot. when con-
gresham James S Sherman OF New
York received SIC votes; his only ap-
probable competitors being Franklin
Murphy OF New Jersey, with ~ and
Curtis Guild Of Massachusetts,, with
IS.
One Of the interesting features Of
this convention was a refusal, by a
vote OF 81 TO sos, to reduce the repre-
sentation of southern Democratic
states in future conventions, propor-
tionately increasing that OF Repub-
lican states in the north
The platform was a lengthy affair
which sounded new notes in relation
to a new and more elastic currency
system. the establishment Of postal
savings banks. the limitations on the
issuance Of the writ OF Injunction,
and the admission OF New Mexico and
Arizona as separate states in the
union.
