TOO MUCH COURT.
Senator Barker Tells How Sherburne
County Got a Triple-Plated Court.

Senator Barker Tells How Sherburne
County Got Triple-Plated Court.
In the last issue of the Isanti County
Press Senator Barker replies to the
Sherburne County Times which paper
complained of the additional term of
court provided by the last legislature
for Sherburne county. Senator Barker
states that he drafted the bill and in
troduced it and that he submitted a
copy of the proposed bill to Judge Gid
dings of the Eighteenth district for his
examination and for any suggestions
that he might desire to make.
Judge Giddings returned the bill
with some suggestions as to amend
ment, and Senator Barker amended the
bill SO that it would correspond with
amendments suggested by the judge
and introduced it, and it passed in its
amended form.
The Press says: 1.-The object OF in
Producing the bill was to give to Isanti
county an additional term of court.
there was no intention of changing the
term of holding court in Sherburne
county in any particular. But the
author of the bill did not notice that an
additional act had been passed in 1893
affecting the time of holding court in
said Sherburne county. And it seems
the Judge did not notice it, either, and
SO a term was provided for the fourth
Monday in March in Sherburne county
in addition to one in May and Novem-
Der. That is about all there is to it,
The law did not pass until April 18th
so it did not provide for any extra term
in Sherburne county this year, and the
legislature will convene in 1904 in time
to amend the law before any term of
court could be held under it in 1904 SO
all there is to it practically is, that an
additional term is provided for in 1908.
And we doubt not that can be ARRANGED
by the judge without any additional
expense to the county of Sherburne.
80 keep your hat on, Bro. Davee.
and the author will agree to help pass
bill in 1904, after first submitting it
for your approval, that will satisfy all
interested.''

to a great extent the success of the
community.
Another captain of mercantile indus
try in Princeton is E. B. Anderson who
came to Princeton from the Pacific
coast country in 1898 and started in as
a clerk for N. E. Jesmer for whom he
worked for five years, during which
time he became acquainted with the
local trade and it's requirements, and
he had foresight enough to see that
Princeton was just beginning on an era
of great prosperity and he made up his
mind to get in the procession with his
trade banners flying and an eye out for
business. Mr.. Anderson was located
in the west at Tacoma where he ran a
grocery store for few years. Fate and
good Judgment induced him to move
across the mountains and the rich fields
of Dakota and the Red River valley
and get next door to the potato belt.
When he started in business he as
ISOLATED himself with E. M. Chapman
and the firm name was Anderson &
Chapman. They occupied store
where Sjoblom & Olson's saloon is To-
Gated. The firm started in business
March lst, 1898, and continued for one
year when Mr.. Chapman withdrew
from the firm and J. G.. Herdliska went
in business with Mr.. Anderson, this
partnership continuing for two years.
The firm moved in the building that
Mr.. Anderson now occupies in 1900
with a large stock of general mer-
chandise to which he has constantly
kept adding to keep up with his
rapidly growing business. His store is
3&3xl00 feet with a basement under the
whole store which is stocked with Gel
lar goods. Mr.. Anderson carries a
good stock of general merchandise and
always aims to keep his departments
we'll stocked up with seasonable and
up-to-date goods. He has never neg
lected an opportunity to make friends
in his trade and has a faculty of keep
ing his customers and getting many
new ones. In business he has never
been given to promises that he could
not keep, and has cautiously felt his
way along the trade channels until to-
day he has an extensive and rapidly
growing trade. He is wide-awake and
yet prudent and is accounted safe and
conservative business man. He is one
OF the youngest Of the business men of
Princeton and his record as business
man has been most successful.
One of the oldest merchants in point
of local trade chronology is L. W. Pier
son who came to Princeton twenty
years ago and for many years took his
lessons in mercantile business from
such old trade captains as G. H. Rines,
S. NJ. Byers and N. E. Jesmer. After
working in this capacity for seven years
he engaged in business with W. H.
Townsend, but the partnership lasted
only six months, after which he en-
gagged in business for himself, and later
he built the business block in which
his store is located. The building is
46x75 feet. He occupies the entire
lower floor and the upper floor is ar
ranged for living apartments.

one year lease with provision for its
renewal for term of two years at the
option of the lessee. Thornquist con-
tlnued to occupy the building after the
first year. had expired, and paid his rent
the same as he did the first year and
refused to vacate the premises. The
case was tried before Justice Chad
bourne last year, Attorney White of
Elk River appearing for Thornquist.
A verdict was rendered for plaintiff
and defendant appealed the case to the
district court and Judge Baxter held to
the same opinion as the village justice.
The case was then appealed to the SUI
preme court and here is the syllabus
by Justice Lovely:
"First-A written lease of urban
premises for one year contained pro-
vision for it's renewal for the term of
two years at the option of the lessee,
the occupancy of the tenant continued
and the rent was duly paid for two
years which was received without OBJ
lection, held that the lease was renewed
for the longer period and could not
thereafter be terminated by either
without the consent of the other.
"Second-Under these circumstances
the lease must be regarded as contin-
uing one for three years from the entry
of the tenant upon the premises and is
not within the provisions of the statute
OF frauds which prohibits oral leases
for more than one year.
"Third- lease having been exc
cuted in 1900, the provisions of chapter
81, laws of March, 1901, cannot be ap-
piled in considering it's terms since the
rights Of the parties had become vested
before such act took effect.''
