Profit and Loss.

David M. Parry, who has been re-
elected president of the National AS
ISOLATION of Manufacturers, was talk
ing in Pittsburg about profits.
''Profts are legitimate, he said.
"The buyer expects the seller to make
profit. Therefore it is no less un-
wise than dishonest to pretend always
to be selling below COST
Mr.. Parry smiled. II am reminded
of an experience of one of my clerks, y
he said. ''This clerk always bought
his working clothes at little shop on
side street. He visited the shop one
morning to get an Office coat and the
dealer asserted that all the coats he
brought out were bargains.
No matter which garment you
take, SIR said the man, II will lose
money on the SALE
:" But you always tell me that" the
clerk objected. :. If you always lose
money, how do you manage to live?'
Well, you see, said the dealer,
: make a small profit on the paper
and string.'''

DIES AT A RIPE AGE
Mrs. John Mcclellan Dies After Lin
gering Illness at the Age
of Seventy-Four.
Had Resided in Princeton TWENTY
Seven Years and Was a Wo-
man of Fine Character.

Mrs. John Mcclellan, who for many
months has been patient sufferer
from fatal ailment passed away at
her home in Princeton at three O'Clock
Tuesday morning.
The funeral was held at her late
home yesterday afternoon at 2 O'Clock,
Rev. Gratz officiating. Interment was
in Oak Knoll, beside the grave of her
husband.
Emily Ann Mayo was born in
Brownsville, Penobscott county.
Maine, Feb. 10, 1927, and was the
daughter of Reuben and Dorcas
Mayo. She was married to John
Mcclellan at Brownsville, Maine.
Feb. 18th, 1S4S. In 1867 they moved
to Elk River where Mr.. Mcclellan
died April 9th of the same year. In
1877, Mrs. Mcclellan moved with her
family to Princeton where she made
her home until her death.
Left with a family of several chill
dren and in comparatively new
country her early life was one com
mon to so many of the pioneers. But
with all her duties and cares she al
ways had time to be at the bedside of
the sick and to aid the suffering and
those in want and distress. Those
who knew her many long years will
ever remember her as a. warrn-hea rted
neighbor and faithful friend. She
was OF that God-fearing, sturdy stock
OF New England pioneers who have
lived and died and in their span of
life SO richly contributed to the
worlds true worth, and happiness.
Her father was Methodist preacher,
and at the age of thirteen years Mrs.
Mcclellan became member of the M.
E. church, and at the time of her
death was member of the Princeton
M. E. church.
She is survived by four sons and
two daughters. The sons are Charles
f., K. F., Frank and Harry NJ, and
the daughters are Emma q. wife of f.
Fl. Hall of Saltwater, and Sarah II.
wife of G. S. Wheaton of Elk River.
Two sons, George and John, died sew
eral years ago.

VOLUME XVIII. NO. 70.
Wanted, a Candidate.

Ever since the Republican State con-
vention the Minneapolis Journal has
been devoting it's time and space to
finding a Democratic or mugwunp
candidate strong enough, in it's opin-
ion, to defeat Bob Dunn for governor.
The search has been futile so far. The
men whom the Journal most favors
are not to be induced to enter upon
wild goose chase to satisfy the spite
full feeling of revenge which has can
kered the soul and dominates the SEN
timents of the management of the Jour-
nal and it is only making itself highly
ridiculous by it's absurd display of
political hysteria. Dunn will be
elected in spite of-and perhaps be-
cause of-such senseless opposition
and that by the largest majority ever
accorded a Minnesota gubernatorial
candidate. We believe that when the
votes are counted Minneapolis and
st. Paul will be found to have resumed
their political sanity and to have given
substantial majorities to the regular
nominees of the Republican party.
But even should they not, the recent
county conventions should furnish
an ample demonstration of the act that
the State outside the twin cities is for
Dunn and so Enthusiastically so, that
any OBJECTIONS of the cities will be OBJ
liberated by the farmer vote. Dunn is
beyond dispute the candidate of the
farmer, the mechanic and the common
citizen, and against those elements in
the electorate the Journal, the tax
dodger and the corporations will
thunder and fight in vain.-Lakefeld

COUNTY BOARD EOUALIzEs.
| 1t Takes The Assessors Returns and VAL
ueS Go Up and Values Go Do,xn

1t Takes The Assessors Returns and VAL
ues Go Up and Values Go Down.
The county board of utilization
convened Monday and after organic
ing proceeded to even up the valua-
tons of property throughout the
county. Their task was a hard one
and for nearly three days the board
has been wrestling with personal prop
erty assessments, which vary through
out the county in way that would
make Philadelphia lawyer look puz-
zled and tired. Notwithstanding the
fact that certain values are agreed and
settled on by the assessors before en-
tering upon their duties the fact is
very apparent that the work of listing
property and establishing values on
the same is done on the go-as-you-
please order. For instance in the town
of Bogus Brook no watches or clocks
were listed at all, and if assessment
books are any reliable basis for CAL
culation there is mighty good field
up that way for time-piece agent.
The board could do nothing in the
case as it had no data whatever to
work on. Borgholm had to have an
increase of 300 per cent in this class
OF goods to bring it up to an average
value with the rest of the county.
In "horses, mules and asses' the
board made many changes, most all
increases. Borgholm getting raise
of Is per cent in class G of this de-
scription of stock, while the raise in
values was all the way from eight to
Is per cent in equine property in most
towns.
In class B of cattle there was a
small increase in several towns.
Borgholm was raised Is per cent
Princeton town the same and Robbins
20. East Side was lowered five and
South Harbor ten per cent. In class
c of cattle, Borgholm was increased
five per cent: and Page ten, while Hay
land was lowered ten per cent.
Borgholm got an increase of l25 per
cent in wagons and carriages and
Milaca town 60. Onamia, Princeton
town and Robbins and Foreston were
lowered a little.
Autos in Milaca were raised so and
in Princeton IS per cent.
In Borgholm melodeons and organs
were raised 100 per cent, and the in
crease on pianos in various places
ranged all the way from seven to
thirty-three and one-third per cent.
Steamboats, and sailing vessels were
raised so per cent and L. T. Grady
was given an assessment of $500 on
this class of property.

For the Girls.

My fair young girl, it has been my
method many times to offer advice to
boys, SO excuse me if this time I make
you the subject. Don't loiter on the
streets nights; better be at home study
ing, Or helping mother. Don't meet
him at some secluded corner for a
chat: better insist that he shall meet
you at your own house. If he won't
you'll be better Off in the long run.
Don't laugh and talk loud wherever
you are, for it attracts unnecessary
attention and men have their opinion
of those girls, who indulge therein.
Be lady-like always. Everyone ad-
mires womanly behavior in a girl.
Don't think for a moment that men
fail to keep their eyes on girls, for I
know they do, and I am afraid if some
of the young ladies. who do not carry
themselves with proper decorum,
were to hear the comments made by
the masculines, their self pride would
be sadly disturbed. The unmarried
man who sees a girl at home most of
the time, studying, sewing Or working
makes note of it, and that's the kind
of a girl, nine out of ten, he will take
or wife. The womanly, busy girl is
in demand, and has been ever since the
world began. Remember these things,
dear girls, they will do you good

Rural Carriers Paw.

The new salary schedule for rural
mail carriers has been completed and
the new schedule applies from July
LIST. The last congress raised the
maximum salary from $500 to S72O a
year.
1t was found that the maximum
route was twenty -four miles long and
to carriers on routes of this length,
numbering about 1900, the maximum
salary will be paid. The salaries of
carriers on routes shorter than the
maximum was fixed by deducting S18
for each mile less than twenty-four.
The, net result has been that slightly
over twO-thirds of the whole force of
"a, 500 rural carriers have received in
creases of 500 year in their sal
aries. The remaining carriers have
received increases of less than this
sum.
This schedule takes into considera-
ton the expense for equipment and
makes what is stated to be a liberal
allowance for such expense to car
riers on routes less than the maximum
length. It leaves about theasame ap-
preparation availa BILE for new service
during the coming year that the de-
partment had during last fiscal year.
