Princeton UNION fairly outdid themselves in
celebrating the twenty-fifth anniversary of

history OF the town and county, deliberately
illustrated aud handsomely printed on fine

The souvenir edition of the Princeton UNION,
comm emorative of its twenty-fifth birthday, is.
everything considered, the handsomest and
most perfect specimen of Minnesota Journalism
ever sent through the mails. It would require
column to enumerate it's many splendid fea-
lures. and we will not attempt more than to
say that it is Bob Dunn's paper-the joy and
pride of his big heart and he has every reason
to feel pride in it. Long live the UNION and
its famed and felicitous founder! Martin

the best end of the potato-Redwood Gazette

was very cleverly gotten up. It was in the
form of map of the potato district between
st. Paul and Duluth, and as background for
the map. which was in colors, plate repre-
