CONTROL OF
HAVANA TOBACCO

New York Feb. 2S.--The Tribune says:
Arrangements have been practically COM
pleted for the syndicate to control a large
share of the Havana Tobacco output. The
plan for the consolidation has been dis
cussed thoroughly and it is likely that
the consolidation will be consummated
within week. 1t will be capitalized at
$22 600 OOO of which two-thirds is pre-
ferred and one-third common 1t is as
serted that the profits of the new COM
six per cent on preferred stock and one
per cent on common stock. Among the
persons interested in the new concern
are F. Garcia, Brother & Co.. j. c. Tom
linson and Rafael r. Gorin. 1t is thought
that the necessary funds will be forth
coming in few days and the consolida-
ton is said to be assured
The company has secured options on %
factories and plants an the tobacco la DIS
attached. The factories include all but
half a dozen on the island of Cuba, which
have been secured by an English COM
pany. The Consolidated Tobacco COM
pany of Cuba will endeavor to obtain con-
! troll of the English country This would
enable it to control the entire output OF
| Cuban tobacco. A corrollary of the plan
! is to control the factories and lands OF
companies making a grade of cigars in
ferior to the better known Havana brand
| This part of the business will be con-
! trolled by distinct company to be known
J as the Key West Tobacco association.

City Council Preparing to Wind
Up Business.
TAXPAYERS MAKE A KICK
Because City Clerk and City Treasurer
Have Offices Outside of the
City Hall.

The next meeting of the city council
will be held on Monday, March 6, which
will be a regular meeting. The adjourned
meeting called for the latter part Of this
month will not occur. At the next meet
ing an unusually large amount Of busi-
ness will have accumulated, So that there
is every reason to believe there VIII be
at least three meetings Of the city council
during the month Of March. Arrange
ments for the coming city election. Which
falls on April 10, will have TO be made,
and all this cannot be done at one meet
ing. Then the retiring council is desir-
Gus of finishing up its business we'll, and
the several committees in the council Will
want to complete, as far as possible, the
work mapped out by them or given them
for transaction.
1t is understood that with the coming
of spring the residents of that portion Of
the city east of Main street will lodge
protest in the city council against the
city treasurer having his office in the
Durstan block on Main street, instead of
at the city hall, where there is an office
provided for the treasurer Not day
passes in which some one, and many from
the west END, so to the CITY hall to pay
city taxes and are compelled to go and
find the city treasurer in an uptown
office, with the permission of a demo-
cratic council. The people who do not
approve of the present office of the city
treasurer claim he should occupy the Of
flee made for him in the city hall. He
is a public officer, so they claim, and has
no more tight to establish an office up
town than the police magistrate or any
other officer. The same complaint is
made regarding the office of city clerk,
who also has an office up town and is
allowed $40 per month rental, when there
is room for that office in the city hall
Like the office of treasurer, not a day
passes that he, in the capacity of city
clerk and city attorney, is not wanted
and cannot always be found. The COM
plainants insist that these two Offices
must be located in the city hall in the
future, and the party which does not put
that plank in it's platform this spring will
not get their support. The movin~ of
these two offices out of the city hall was
a democratic measure. The republicans
are against it and so are many demo-
Gratis, who want the city hall used as it
should be by the city officers.

fixtures with the head of Marcus Daily S
celebrated horse "Tammany" made of
natural wood and forming center piece
in the ornamental floor will be unveiled
at the Montana hotel. The furnishings
of this magnificent bar excel anything
west of Chicago and was put in at cost
of nearly $4,000. The frescoing and water
colors on the ceiling and side walls was
done by the most competent artists OF the
east On all sides and on the ceiling are
situated hundreds of dazzling electric
lights and ornamental globes. The bar

business men and guests of the hotel can
enjoy a social chat or the luNurles from
the bar if they so desire. Surrounding
the iron pillars in the center of the room
are black leather cushioned settees. The
place must be seen to be appreciated.
Travelling men and others who have seen

How Does This Strike You:

1t has been suggested to the UNION
that Princeton could turn Silver lake
into q very pretty park at a very
slight expense: A roadway about the
lake would be easily constructed and
by building a dam at the outlet the
level of the lake could be kept where
it belongs. There would be little, if
any, damage done the surrounding
property by the water and this would
be more than offset by the increase in
the value if these improvements were
made. The estimate of the cost was
put at about 1900. Princeton needs
some such place where its residents
can enjoy boating and other attendant
sports without a long drive over dis
agreeable roads. It is a good idea,
too, so let's talk it over and ''push it

Tax PAYMENTS.

Although this is a quiet season with
the county treasurer, Mr.. Burrell re-
ports that during the past month he
has collected something over $4,000
taxes. The payment of these taxes
has curious feature, too, $1,000 being
for delinq uent taxes, while only $1,000
represent the taxes for the current
year. This uncommon occurrence
shows that the farmers are experience
ing considerable prosperity for this
season of the year and are making
good use of the funds they receive by
discharging their overdue debts to the
county.

they were obliged tot was their ONLY
market. The building of the Coon
Creek cutoff has given them a choice
OF markets. Mr.. Joseph Chapman, a
Spencer Brook farmer, pointedly said
to the writer last Saturday: IL reside
close to the east line OF Spencer Brook
township. I have always marketed
my produce and. done my trading in
Princeton. am just as near Isanti as
Princeton, and it is a better road to
the former place, and there is where I
propose to market my produce this
fall, unless the Spencer Brook and
Princeton road is put in better shape
than it is at present. There is the
whole story in a nutshell. It is not
only from the east that Princeton bus
mess men derive large trade which
they are liable to lose unless better
highways are secured, but from the
north, south and west as we'll. Last
fall farmers came from within a few
miles of St. Cloud, Big Lake and Clear
Lake to market their produce and do
their trading here. ....
The business men of Princeton should
Immediately raise not less than ST. 900
and see that the same is judiciously
expended in the improvement of the
highways leading into Princeton. It
would be money we'll invested, and it
would be an investment that would paw
100 per cent. dividends. Every busi-
ness man, and when we say business
man we mean every man who is doing
business in Princeton, should contrib
ute to this good roads improvement
fund according to his means.
The merchant who does a business
of $4,000 annually should contribute
more than the man who does a $4,000
business. The farmers should, and
| doubtless will, contribute their share.
for good roads are beneficial to the
business man and farmer alike. Let
there be meeting called and proper
committees appointed to 60 about the
work of raising funds at once. and the
committee having in charge the ex-
penditure of the funds should be re-
quired to publish an itemized sworn
account of how and where every dollar
was expended-the UNION will gladly
publish such statement free of cost.
The UNION will also publish a list of
contributors to the fund. There are
merchants in this village who are not
noted for their public-spiritedness, but
they cannot afford to be niggardly in
this matter. To our farmer friends we
would say, watch the columns 81 the

men who refuse to aid in this good

mess proposition. Can the business
men afford to invest 81, 900 and secure
thousands Of dollars worth of business
in return? We believe they can The
UNION believes in good roads to the
extent of $50, and we stand ready to
turn over that amount to the proper
committee. We want to head the list

tions in next weeks issue of the UNION.
