Some Good Potatoes.

s. Winsor was in town last Monday.
He says that his potatoes are turning
out we'll SO far. Out of 40 bushels of
White Star or, Burbank potatoes which
he has dug SO far off of new breaking
he found less than twenty bushels of
bad potatoes. He hauled several
loads to town last week and sold them
for twenty-five cents, to Terrell who
said that they were the best potatoes
that had arrived on the market so far
this season. Mr.. Winsor planted
twenty-five acres of potatoes and
eighteen acres was on new land that
he cleared last year. He has Triumphs
that will go twenty and twenty EIGHT
to the hill. This does not look as
though all the potatoes were bad and
there are many others who will have
good reports to make. A we'll in
formed party remarked the other day
that there would be sixty per cent of
the crop that would grade as very fair
merchantable potatoes. There has
been big crop and after the shrink
has been figured out there will be a
lot OF potatoes to sell later on.

SHOT BY COMPANION.

A Sad Affair.

While out hunting rabbits with some
companions last Sunday Paul AL
bright, the nineteen-year-old son OF
August Albright, living north OF
Princeton, was mortally wounded by
a discharge from shot gun, in the
hands of William Jaenicke son OF
August Jaenicke, who was shooting at
rabbit. Just as he pulled the trig-
ger young Albright who was some
distance away, ran in front of Jaen-
icke, and received the discharge in
the left lung.
The accident happened about 4
O'Clock in the afternoon and occurred
about twenty rods from Max Krusche S
house. Young Albright was taken to
his home where he died about 9
O'Clock in the evening.
Coroner Cooney was summoned and
after making inquiries reported that
the death was purely accidental.
The affair cast a gloom over the en-
tire community, but sad and sudden
as it was no one was to blame. It
was one of those sad occurrences that
will happen as long as firearms are
made, and men and boys 60 hunting.
The funeral of the young man was
held Tuesday forenoon at 10 o'clock,
Rev. Strauch officiating.

AN UNFAIR ATTACK.
T. F. Norton Makes Uncalled for Attack
on Princeton.


T. F. Norton in the Mile Laos
Pioneer last week printed a statement
calculated to mislead the voters of
this county, as well as rejecting on
the fairness of the people of Princeton
toward the people Of the rest of the
county when it comes to political
honors at the court house.
Mr.. Norton under the caption
''Princeton's Bristles' printed list
of all the county officers and gave
their residence as Princeton.
Now for the sake of fairness let us
see:
County Auditor Whitney came from
Foreston, when he assumed the duties
of his Office and County Treasurer
Burrell came from Milaca. Here are
two of the most important Offices in
the county that are not to be credited
to- Princeton, and the nominee for
register of deeds, who will succeed
Mr.. Chapman next January is Charles
W. Burnhelm of Book. This makes
the three most important offices in the
county, from points outside of Prince.

The candidate for coroner, DR.. b.
P. Bacon, is from Milaca.

The candidate for coroner, DIR. 81.
P. Bacon, is from Milaca.
1t is quite true that county officials
usually reside at the county seat, as
their official duties make it incumbent
on them to do so.
| Mr.. Norton was unfortunate in not
securing the nomination for clerk of
court, but had he received the nomin-
alton and election he would have
moved down to Princeton and. from
his way of looking at these matters,
he would have been a resident of the
county seat.
Mr.. Norton filed as a candidate un-
der the primary law, which gives
equal privileges to all as candidates
for office. He had many friends, who
worked hard and faithfully for his
success, who will regret to see him lay
the blame of his defeat at the door of
Princeton
In his soreness over his defeat he
tries to make it appear that Mr.. Dunn
was instrumental in contributing to
the same. AS matter of fact Mr..
Dunn had no part or parcel in the
primary contests in Mile Laos county,
and to infer by inuendo or otherwise
that he interested himelf in behalf of
any local candidates is certainly I'M
just and wholly uncalled for. He is
interested, as is also Mile Laos
county, in contest that covers a
much wider field than does the small
strip of territory we call our home
county. Mile Laos county is the
smallest county in the State and to
have candidate for governor is an
honor that much larger counties would
give great deal to have.
It is unreasonable to suppose that
Mr.. Dunn could afford to drop en-
gagements in State campaign to
participate in petty local contests in
his home county, and most unreason-
able to expect that he would do so.
1t is mighty poor politics or policy
to try to engender i'll feeling between
localities. In primary election all
candidates are on par and have an
equal show in Mile Laos or any other
county.
Mr.. Sanford was one of the defeated
candidates for clerk of court, but he
has not charged his defeat to Prince

Labor Is for Dunn,

"Mr. Dunn is the friend of the
working man, and we are not going
to leave a stone unturned in our
efforts to give him an overwhelming
majority" says John Swift of Mime
apolis, a leading labor organizer of
the Minnesota State Federation of
Labor. II have known Mr.. Dunn a
good many years, and I know that
while in. the Legislature and while
State auditor he proved himself a
friend of the man who depends upon
his weekly wages for livelihood.
Further than this. I believe that
Mr.. Dunn will carry Hennepin county
by good majority. If he does not
carry Hennepin county it will not be
because the workingmen were negli-
gent. I don't believe in exaggerating
the situation and in thinking that
we have everything cinched, but 1 be-
lieve that Hennepin county will go for
Dunn and the entire Republican State
ticket.

the opponents of Mr. Dunn can con-

SON $40 Friday and most of this
amount was found in the pockets Of

Young Woodman has resided in
Idaho for number Of years, where
he worked on ranches. He came to
Princeton a few weeks ago. He
suffered with frequent pains in his
head and it is said he claimed to
have been under hypnotic influence at
one time. Since coming to Princeton
he has labored at times under an
hallucination that parties had fol-
lowed him from the west and in dis
guise were trying to kill him. He
told his uncle about the matter one
day, and said he would put some
holes in them, but Mr.. Woodman
talked the strange notion out of his
head.
On Friday he spent short time
with Elmer Woodman and appeared
in good spirits, and said nothing to
Indicate that he intended to take his
own. life.
If he did stab himself and thrust a
knife blade three inches through the
frontal bone into his brain, pull the
blade out, shut the knife and place it
in his pocket, he certainly committed
the deed with swiftness and precision.

motive, for murder and there is a
mystery about the whole affair.

slim for the young man to live, as
already there are serious cerebral
symptoms, and the left arm and a
portion of the side are partially par

SEPTEMBER TERM COMPLETED.
Coulter Wins Verdict in Suit Against Bar
ker Estate.-- Ministers Love One An
other and Libel Action Dismissed.

The September term of court was
adjourned last Saturday morning, all
the cases on the calendar having been
disposed of. The calendar was cut
short by several cases not going to
trial, some being settled and dismissed
and others continued
The case of the Thompson Cattle Co..
VS.. Foley Bean Lumber Co. resulted
in a verdict for defendants, the jury
returning the verdict early Thursday
morning. A stay of sixty days was
granted.
The potato case of Isaac W. Carr Of
New York City VS.. G. H. Rines & Co..
was tried by the court. It took some
time to hear all the evidence, and the
arguments in the case will be heard at
chambers at the convenience of par
ties.
The third and last case of any i'm
pOrtance was that Of E. B. Coulter OF
Greedy, Colorado, in an appeal from
the order of the probate court dis
allowing a claim for boarding and
nursing the late Mrs. Olive R. Barker.
The case has been referred to before
Coulter filed claim for $4,000 against
the estate of Mrs. Barker for caring
for and nursing her several years
prior to her DEATH The heirs con-
tested the claim in the probate court
which allowed Coulter $500. E. L.
Mcmillan and Charles Keith repre-
sented the plaintiff, while G. A.
Dickey and Geo. G. Stiles OF Mime
apolis were attorneys for the heirs.
There were several witnesses on both
sides and dispositions by the yard, but
lot of them were not admitted as evil
dence. 1t was hard fought case and
attorneys on both sides fought at close
points. The case went to the jury
Friday night, and the jury remained
out all night, bringing in a verdict
Saturday morning for $4,000 for
plaintiff. At the start the jury stood
eight to four for full verdict for
plaintiff, and later on the vote stood
eleven to one, the twelfth man hang
ing out for $4,000, but at O'Clock in
he morning a comprosmise was made
at 81, 900. A stay of sixty days was
granted.
The litigation over this claim cost
about $1,000 at the time it left the
probate court, and attorneys fees
and costs up to the present time viii
make no small sum.
It is said that Mrs. Barker made the
statement to friends the last time she
was in Princeton that she had never
paid Mr.. and Mrs. Coulter anything
for their care of her. The matter O.
payments by her to the Coulters was
not brought out in the trial.
