Mr.. Nc lary was we'll received by q very
large audience. The gentleman is GER
tainly a good speaker, and can always
draw good houses when he comes to
Princeton. The Methodist society
realized about $4,000 as proceeds from
the sale of tickets.
Baldwin Democrat: / hear they are
trying to get up q MugWump ticket in
Wright county to defeat Hon. VIM. II.
Houlton. I am a Democrat but I prefer
Mr.. Houlton to any Mugwump or milk
and-water Democrat In any event, I
shall have the name Of Vim. H. Houlton
on my ballot next November.
G. III. Chadbourne: Our best route
man is N. A. Grow, Of Greenbush. His
cream is always in good condition, and
we never have any trouble with patrons
on his route. Under Mr.. Crows direc-
tions the majority of the Ggeenbush
farmers have learned how to handle
their cream to get the best results.
Our Foreston correspondent says, Art.
Cater has left that place bag and bag
gage, and gone to st. Cloud to reside.
Mr.. Cater is in town to-day, and he in
formed the UNION reporter that he had
never any intention Of leaving Foreston;
went to ST. Cloud temporarily on bust
ness, and is now a bona .tide resident Of
Foreston.
Grace Veal, aged nine years, died of
diphtheria on Tuesday. This makes
the third death from that terrible dis
ease in that sorely afflicted family
Misfortunes never come singly. Yes
terday noon the house caught fire and
burned to the ground, and the surviv-
ing members of the family are living in
tents. Here is a chance for the charit-
ably-disposed citizens of Princeton to
show their generosity.
The Princeton creamery is paying
one cent per gauge more for cream
!
than any Of the creameries in adjoining
towns. More than that, we predict
right here and now, that the company
will be able to pay q dividend of at least
10 per cent. to the stockholders at. the
close of the year-at the close of the
creamery year. Still better, Manager
Chadbourne informs us that notWith-
standing the present depressed con-
dition Of the butter market he expects
to increase the price for cream one
cent per gauge shortly.
There is diversity of opinion among
the Republicans of the county, or at
least among those the reporter has
talked with, as to the advisability of
holding a Republican convention for
the purpose OF nominating a county
ticket. The majority seem to think
that 1T is next to useless to go through
the farce Of holding a convention when
none OF the candidates who may happen
to get left will stand by the nomina-
tons. At the present writing it looks
i as5if it would besa ;free-for-all in Mike
= acs county this fall as far as the local
offices are concerned.
The book entitled Minnesota in the
Civil War; is very interesting reading,
especially to old soldiers. Every man
who served in a Minnesota regiment is
entitled to a copy free Of charge. The
father, mother or widow of a deceased
soldier is also entitled to a copy. A
copy Of the book can be secured by any
one entitled to the same, by sending a
postal card to Adjutant General Null
len, ST. Paul. The UNION has called
the attention of It's readers to this mat
ter before. If any readers Of the UNION
who is entitled to the book fails. to Sc
cure a copy it will be his or her own
fault. q
