The Princeton union. [volume] (Princeton, Minn.) 1876-1976, 1892-12-29

In explanation of the above letter we
will say, Mr.. Black is one of the pub
fishers of the St. Paul Globe almanac,
and great deal of the matter used in
the Globe almanac would have been
utilized in the UNION almanac. Of
course, we could not afford to get up an
almanac of ESQ pages for the special
use of the UNION-such a book would
cost us $1,000. We intended to have
about rs pages of home matter, and
have been to considerable trouble and
expense in gathering and compiling
data. 1t is too late now to make other
arrangements, and reluctantly we are
compelled to announce that the UNION
will issue no almanac this year.
Last year our almanac cost us $780,,
and each subscriber who paid in ad-
vance the sum of $3.50 received COPY.
We made the same offer in good faith
this year, and if there is any individual
who has already paid his subscription
for 1893 and is dissatisfied he can have
his money refunded by applying at this
office.
For the past twelve years, at the end
of each year, we have offered the UNION
at club rates in order to induce sub
scribers to pay in advance. We make
the Same offer this year. We consider
the UNION we'll worth the subscription
price, $500 per year, but, as before re-
marked, We offer it for $50 at the end
of the year for the purpose of inducing
subscribers to pay up promptly .
We can assure the UNION subscribers
that they will get the worth of their
money during the year 1898, and if at
the end of the year any subscriber will
honestly say he has not had his moneys
worth we will refund him the amount
he has paid. The UNION believes in
fair dealing.
Our club rate offer of $3.50 holds good
until Jan. LIST, and positively no longer.

"A Severe Disappointment.

1t is with feelings Of keen regret that
we announce to the readers of the
UNION that we will be unable to get
out any almanac this wear. We had
completed all arrangements, as we sup
posed, to have the almanac appear
about the first Of the year, but the fol-
lowing letter spoiled all our calcula-
tions:
ST. PAUL, Dec. %, 1891.
My Dear Mr.. Dunn II regret very
much to inform you that owing to newly
arisen circumstances over which we
have no control we will be unable to
issue an almanac this year. We regret
this matter moro if you have done any
work for yours, as you have in the past
been exceedingly clever in your deal
lngs with us and we appreciate it.
Yours sincerely,
