one in ten thousand "a hundred. Lie

is scarcely worth while. In twenty

Where Jig ten? Where in five? Where

man being can tell! Yesterday, you
may have done your neighbor a great
wrong; you may have said and done
many foolish things; you may have

your best friends; in the@heat Of passion
you may have used bitter and intem-
perate language which you would give

But you can't unsaY what has been

The absurdity of pickering and quarrel

fact, it is altogether probable that a
proposition, for aid would be voted
down in lsanti county; then again the
people Of That county are agitating the
building Of a road from Brunswick to
Anoka; the east and west route is
hardly ever mentioned. A road to
Anoka would pass through rich agri.
cultural country, Baldwin, Spencer
Brook and st. Fracois, each Of these
towns would vote liberal aid. and
Anoka would do the handsome thing;
se]f-interest would prompt the towns
we have mentioned to do all in their
power to further7a railroad, as it would
benefit them as much as it would Mile
Laos county.
We are we'll aware of the fact that
not few of the farmers in this county.
especially those of Greenbush and
Milo, would be opposed to the Anoka
route, because, they say, it would not
benefit them; is there a sensible man
in either Of these two towns who be-
lieves for single moment that, if
Princeton was town of 5000 inhabi-
tants, with mills and manufacturing
adjustments in her midst, that every
farmer in the county would not be
benefited thereby. Then there would
be market--and cash market for
all kinds of farmers produce, and good
prices too. And if the railroad would
prove a success--as it most undoubt-
eddy would--in very short time it
would be extended northward up tow
ward the pinneries; farms not worth
$40 per acre would be enhanced to
double and treble that value; hundreds
of acres Of good lands now lying waste
would be occupied and cultivated; the
county would more than double It's
population in the next five years; and
the aggregate wealth of the county
would increase in the same ratio as the
population; the increase in taxes would
be. SO slight that it would scarcely be
preceptible, and taking into consider
alton the immense benefit to be derived,
the taxes are mere nothing.
We appeal to the intelligent, go
ahead men of Princeton, Anoka and
the other towns mentioned, tomoye in
this matter at once. IF the scheme
was put before the St. P. & P. in th,;
right light, that company would maxi
a proposition to secure such an i'm
portant feeder; there could be borlus
enough to almost, if not entirely, b,1ild
and equip the road. Mile Laos cc,un.
ty stands ready and willing to extend
aid to the furtherest extent the law
allows her. Lay aside all personal
spites and local prejudices and let US
give long pull, a strong pull and a
pull altogether, for a narrow guage
railroad by the most feasible route
from Princeton to Anoka via. Spencer
