DEFEATED GLADSTONE
Locals Piled mp Enough Runs In
First TO Win the Game

The Gladstone base ball team came
to Crystal Falls last Sunday and en-.
gagged the locals in the afternoon in
game that was we'll played but de-
void OF the "on your toes" excitement
that some contests have brought al.
ong.
A finer lot OF boys than the Glad
stone bunch is hard to find. They
played the game all the time, exhib-
ited no yellow steak or suikiness
They played their best and won lots
OF applause from the spectators for
their gameness.
The game was 6 TO affair with
the locals always safe. That the con-
test was not closer was no fault OF
the Gladstone pitcher, zyrd, who was
credited with IA strike-outs.
The hits were not far separated
Crystal Falls being credited with s
and Gladstone 6. The bulk OF Crystal
Falls hits were punched in the first
lining when five runs were scored
while Evans kept the Delta county
boys hits well scattered and would
have shut them out but for little
ivory exhibited in the sixth over a
Texas Lacquer that could easily have
been captured had the proper sign
las been given.
Evans pitched HIS usual steady
game and was at no time in trouble.
Captain Damarsky had sore knee
and had to give away to Josh Hoika.
utility man, who performed well while
he was in the game.
The boys didn't do much with Zyrd
after the first ining and il was a fine
exhibition from that ining forward.

CARS ARE STILL SHY
Claim Peninsula Division OF North
Western Is Disseminated Against

Jobbers who have logs to ship over
the Peninsula Division OF the North
Western road are complaining OF the
service that they are getting. Hun
dreds OF thousands OF dollars worth
OF logs are spelling along the tracks
OF the Northwestern between Iron
Mountain and Watersmeet with din
ky car distribution that is more OF an
agravation than a relief.
The jobbers claim that they have
made investigation and find on other
divisions the car supply is almost
100 per cent while on this division Il
is barely so per cent.
The companies who have mills on
the division claim that they are not
getting cars enough to keep the mills
going more than two-thirds OF the
time. The exception is the big Won
Platen mill which is fairly well sup
Piled but thas operation, so 1t is claim
ed, Is hauling right from the stump
and so has no logs deteriorating as
is the case with others.
Those acquainted with the situation
say that the loss because Of the det-
erioration OF logs piled up along the
right-of-way is appalling for II will
run into a big sum. If the railroad
company would concentrate its eff
orts to getting these logs forward for
the next month much OF this loss
would be stopped II is claimed that
little attention IS being given this
very pressing economic problem and
so Mr.. High Costs will reign in the
hardwood lumber trade for an extend
ed period " result while Mr.. Av-
erage Citizen frets and fumes and
wonders why profiteerlng is allow

THE TOWNSHIP CENSUS

The discrepancy between the census
or the township Of Crystal Falls as
taken by Alvin Richards and that
taken under the direction OF the CEN
sus bureau is so apparent that a
letter was written TO Congressman
James requesting that the census
bureau be requested to make a com
parison between the two census re-
ports.
A reply to Mr.. James request was
received during the week and It reads
as follows:
My dear Mr. james:
! have your letter of August Sth,
transmitting Mr.. Conlin's leeter TO
you under date Of August 3.
The comparison Of the Crystal'Falls
list with the official returns has been
nearly completed, and Il will probably
be possible within a day or two to
inform you and Mr. Conlin as to the
results.
II is noticed that Mr.. Conlin re-
quests that a similar comparison be
made between the results of the Rich
ards census OF Crystal Falls township
and the Federal census OF that town
ship. The Bureaus decision in this
matter will depend upon the results
OF the comparison made for Crystal

Specializing on Counties
The campaign has progressed to a
point where the speculation as TO
how counties are to 60 is frequently
heard. or course, each candidate is
making claims that he cannot make
stand up; making them for effect and
in computing the final result one must
discount such claims.
Mr.. McDonough's campaign mana
gerfi Mr.. Frank Dixon OF Iron River, is
clever politician and manager and
has been active in shaping the adver-
tising and work In his candidates be-
half He Is quite sanguine OF carry
ing Dickinson, Iron and Gogebic
counties. Marquette county is prac-
tically conceded TO James but with
reduced majority. The copper coun-
try is allotted 10 McNaughton by ma
jority less than McDonough will get in
the iron section and that means the
nomination OF McDonough.
Or. MacNanghtons claims are for a
division OF the iron counties with his
two opponents who will fight one ano-
ther TO death so much that his ma
jortly in the copper section will over
balance the vote Of either of his op-
ponents and mean his election.
James isn't making any claims but
some OF his supporters laugh a. the
claims Of their opponents and reply,
james IL always beaten until the
votes are counted"

Assistants.
The gentleman named constitute
the back bone of the organization
which Is to stage the biggest cele-
bration that Crystal Falls has ever
had. II will be held on Labor Day,
September and will be planned on
a scale calculated TO take in all Of tho
neighboring towns. A special invitat-
ion is being forwarded to Iron River.
Stambaugh, Florence and Claiming
people and a committee OF the bus
mess men will personally convey to
Alpha and Amasa an invitation TO
meet with Crystal Falls and help en-
tertain our neighbors.
The credit for the starting of this
project must be given the Legion
which organization has entered into
the life of our community in a man
ner that is bringing great credit to the
boys. At the last meeting OF the Leg
ion an invitation was sent out TO the
BUSINESS men Of Crystal Falls to meet
with the Legion and discuss a celeb
ration for Labor Day. As a committee
to represent the legion the young man
named at the head of this article
were selected A meeting OF business
men and Legion members was held at
the club rooms Monday evening at
which time the three business men
named were selected and the gener-
al committee got to work at once.

A Fly In The Ointment

There was fly in the ointment,
however, and Il spelled Albinos
doom. In fact there were two flies
One was the fact that he had but two
hands and thus could handle but two
bottles at time. The other was the
fact that Judge Dawson wasn't very
dry. for Just as Albino was emptying
the contents OF the last two bottles
the Judge emerged from the front
door OF the city hall and saw the
evidence gurgling out onto what is
left OF Chorlie Robinson's front door
step.
The Judge lost no time in getting
across the street and the way he
went az Albino was not slow.

Aibino. II see them bottle, me can't

and when the police boys came back
he ordered that Aibino be taken to
jail to await an arraignment. The
police have more OF the same stun at

ties Il means only another trip across

Albino was brought over from Cas-

selling white mule. There was no
question as to his having an adequate
supply. In fact the supply was so
large that the police decided not to
carry all OF II. They took but six
bottles along as a sample.
About ten o'clock they landed with
their prisoner in Justice Davison's
court. They had some business that
called them away Immediately, so
they placed Albino in Judge Davis

be back in short time. The six

Has The inside Track

James has the Office and has the ac.
quaintance throughout the district
and that gives him an advantage that
counts very much in a canvass OF the
kind. There has been no widespread
demand for his removal from his seat
because Of his activities in Congress,
which means that the other fellows
must stir up the sentiment for his
displacement.
To offset this Is the spirit OF unrest
that Is so in evidence these days.
There seems to be a general crouch
against the fellow who Is in office.

congressman This condition Is an
asset in favor OF the two contestants
for Mr.. james seat.
Perhaps the most valuable asset Of
Mr.. James is his untiring effort in the

Justice Dawson Got Dry

JuNtitt wv
Judge Dawson had been doling out
punishment all morning to various
victims that were brought before him
and was thus pretty well warmed up
from the exertion. II was a hot day
and soon the Judge felt dry; not a
beer drought but a real, clear, pure
cold water drought. The nearest
supply was in the city hall across the
street.
There was no one in the office ex-
cepting himself and Albino The
night before the Judge had read how
Warden Russell trusted a convict to
go away down to his home in Ohio
to visit sick mother, on promise
that he would be back in ten days.
The story made so much impression
on the Judge that he decided to try II
out on Albino so he said, you stay
there where you are while l go over
to the city hall and get a drink"
Albino wasn't made OF the same stuff
that the Marquette prisoner was. The
absence OF the Judge, coupled with
the sight Of six full bottles OF his own
white mule so played upon his In

doors closed on Judge Dawson, AL

Anderson HOld-up
Story Questioned
Special to The Times.

ANDERSON, Ind, Nov 19.-That the
story of daring hold-up and bloody
battle with two bandits was really camou-
flage to cover a fight between Charles
and George Mullen, brothers, is the
theory the police are investigating today.
The Mullens, who operate a grocery,
claim the bandits entered their store and
attempted to rob them at the point Of a
revolver.
They assert that tussel ensued during
which Charles Mullen fired three shots
at one of the burglars, hitting him In
the abdomen.
The brothers bore bloody signs of the
encounter, but the fact that the wounded
man could not be found, caused the po-
lice to doubt the story of the brothers
and prompted further investigation of
the case
