Strange Case of Abduction.

Oberlin, O., Oct. 4.-Roy Bennett, 10,
a student, while returning to town
from nutting in company with boy
named Fisher, was seized by two men
on a lonely road at midnight, bound
hand and foot, thrown into buggy
and driven off. Fisher was bound and
gagged and left on the road. Just as
the buggy moved on Bennett, It Is
said, called to Fisher: ''Tell mother
fathers got me-" Every effort Is now
being made to locate the abductors.
Young Fisher says that about two
years ago Benefits father deserted his
family and went to Klondlke, where
he was very successful, and that he
returned here and located in st. Louis,
where he went into business.

If the opposition papers really want
to know ''since when it has been con-
sidered disloyal to criticise the presi-
dent and his public acts,' we will state
that ever since the first bastard Tagal
fired upon the American flag patriotic
citizens have regarded as traitors all
who refuse to uphold the policy of the
government, who seek to retard the
success of American arms and who en-
courage and comfort the enemy. And
loyal American citizens of every party
will continue to hold the same opinion
until the last insurgent has laid down
the arms he now bears against this
government and swear to abide by the
laws which govern this civilized ma
tion.-Anok0 Herald.

THAT magnificent reception given bv
st. Paul, Minneapolis and Duluth to
President Mckinley and his cabinet
meant much more than a simple mat
ter of curiosity to look upon the chief
magistrate of the nation. Republicans
claim, and Democrats grudgingly ad-
nit, that Mckinley is more than: any
other man responsible for the return
of prosperity and the resumption Of
business activity, and it was the en-
.thusiasm inspired by this knowledge
that called out the vast. concourse of
people to meet and greet him. 4 1t Will
not do to say that the crowds merely
went to the cities to meet the return
ing Thirteenth regiment, for accord
ing to the best, reports there was "a
bigger crowd at the Mckinley recep-
tion on Thursday in St. Paul than
there was during the ceremonies at
tendant upon the reception Of the regi-
ment. And furthermore, the same en-
thusiasm was displayed at every point
where the presid ential party stopped
on its tour of Minnesota and Dakota.

THE Glencoe Register announces that
hereafter it will be all home print.
An editor who runs an all home paper
once is like the man who takes a cer-
tain patent medicine, "he will never
use any other.'' Of course there are
many papers-and some very good
ones-which are so situated that thew
cannot afford facilities for getting out
their entire paper with their own
plant. But an editor who owns his
plant and, prints his entire paper feels
like farmer who has no MORTGAGE.
He is independent, satisfied and at
peace with all the world, knowing that
come what will he has his business in
his own hands; he controls his own ad-
vertising space, and prints in or ex-
cludes from his columns just such mat
ter as he chooses.

ENTITLED TO CAPITALS,

The Crookston Times gives currency
to mistaken idea conceived by a
North Dakota paper, that the Republi-
can papers of Minnesota "have now
adopted the solid, irrefuta ble ar GU
ment (?) Of printing his name in small
letters when they refer to him" The
only Republican paper who makes a
practice of referring to our remarkable
governor in slower case" is the estima-
Bile journal written by Hon. Granville
S. Pease, of Anoka. In other papers
he omplimented with capital letters.
For our part we believe it should be
printed JOHN LIND, as his name is
the most important part of him.-Du-

AFTER a series of fukes New York
finally managed to raise wind enough
for a race and the Columbia proved
herself "a gem of the ocean" by show
ing a clean pair of heels to Sir Thomas
and his Shamrock. The race was a
clean contest and the defender clearly
out-sailed her competitor. Tuesdays
race was also the Columbia's, the Sham
rock losing her topmast soon after the
start. Today's race will probably end
the contest and the cup will undoubt-
edly remain with US.

A SARCASTIC exchange remarks that
Charley Towne must have a great fu-
ture since his past is so barren Time
was when Towne had before him as
brilliant and promising future as any
young man who ever entered the po-
litical arena of the State of Minnesota.
He was an orator of great power and
magnitude, thrilling and magnetic
speaker and a specious, though casuis-
tic debater. Had he been loyal to the
men and to the party with whom and
which he was associated he would have
been one of Minnesota's most distin-
guished men. His vacillating course
shows that he had not the stability of
character essential to hold him to
consistent line of conduct, and his
brilliancy and talents we're wasted be-
cause he shifted like a weather-vane
with every breeze of public sentiment
that he saw, or thought he saw.
Meanwhile men of infinitely less pre-
tensions have grown steadily in their
hold upon the public esteem and have
come to be more than what he prom
ised to be. Capt. Carter, who ranked
first in his classes at West Peint, is to-
daV convict. while DeWev. who was 2
slow student and slothful cadet holds
first place in the nations affections.
TOwne, who started with such bril-
liant career, is common penny-a-liner
for any magazine or newspaper that
will pay for his sensational stuff, while
Frank M. Eddy, the laundering lum-
ber-jack, is one of the most honored
members Of Minnesota's delegation in
congress. III e,

GEN" COxEY, who lead the grand
army of vagabonds that went to Wash
ington in 1896, and who was ordered
off the grass with such promptness by
the Washington police, is now a
bloated bond-holder in Missouri lead
and zinc mines. 1t is unnecessary to
say that he is no longer Populist
calamity shouter; he, like every other
man who has property is bent upon
protecting and increasing it.

THE PRINCETON UNION: HTHURsDAY, OCTOBER 49, 1899

Now that the Thirteenth regiment
is at home and again mingling with
the people there is, every reason why
the officers and men should drop the
petty quarreling and put an endto the
scandals that have done 50 much to
tarnish the reputation Fl the regiment
duringsits stay inSthe Philippines. AS
in all volunteer regiments in all
armies, the officers clothed with lit
tie brief authority were disposed to
imposeaapon the men, and the mon, be-
ing unused to discipline and little rel
ishing the airs and graces assumed by
the officers, were rebellious and resent
ful ofrestraint. They are homo now;
enlisted man is just as good as the
officer, and. one officer just as good as
another. The public cares nothing
for their personal .grudges and private
Quarrels, and if. they want to- retain
the high place they hold in the esti-
nation OF the people they will quit
fighting among themselves, and act
like sane and intelligent men.

ALBERT LEA, which "went dry" at
the city election in the spring is get
ting sick of it's contract, and many of
the best citizens are anxious to return
to the license system. A man doesn It
have to be a consumer of the contents
of a saloon to see the impracticability
of enforcing prohi bition in a communi-
ty where public sentiment does not
actively indorse prohibition. One
blind pic will do more harm in a town
than half a dozen open saloons. When
a man has $500 of his good money up
as guarantee that he will conduct a
legitimate business the public has
some assurance that he will observe
the law and obey the ordinances. A
man who goes into the blind pig busi-
ness with half a dozen jugs of bad rum
and a reputation as bad as his rum,
cares nothing for public sentiment or
public morals, and has nothing: in view
except the few dirty dollars he can get
out of the business. He would just as
soon sell to a minor as to man, or an
habitualy drunkard as to respected
citizen. Minnesota has the best Ii
cense law in America, and while each
community has right to choose for
itself, those which experiment with
prohibition usually find that prohibi-
tion brings more harm and more law
breaking than the license system with
proper espionage. >
