MRS. SAUSSER DEAD
Lutte May, Wife of Charles E.
Sausser, Passes Away at Age
of Thirty-Two Years.
Was Daughter of Mr.. and Mrs.
Perry Bulls and a Lady
Highly Esteemed.

Lutte May, wife of Charles E. Saus-
ser, died in north Princeton on Satur-
day, November 3, aged 80 years, the
cause of death being heart failure.
Mrs. Sausser was the daughter of
Perry and Eva Bulls and was born
in Princeton on July 80, 1874. She
was educated in the Princeton public
schools and was member of the
Methodist Episcopal church of this
village. The deceased was married
on February 9, 1897, and there were
two children born of the union, a
daughter and son, one eight years of
age and the other but two weeks, both
of whom survive her. She also leaves
father and mother, Mr.. and Mrs.
Perry Bulls, and two brothers, Hiram
and Charles Bulls, all of whom re-
side in Princeton.
Mrs. Sausser was a lady much be-
loved by all who knew her. She was
possessed of kindly disposition and
was ever ready to render assistance
to her neighbors in the time of neces-
sity. Many are those who will miss
this kindly, christian woman. -
The funeral rites we're solemnized at
the family residence on Tuesday af-
ternoon. Rev. J. W. Heard of the
Princeton M. E. church oficiated.
The interment took place in Oak Knoll
cemetery and a large number of people
followed the remains to the grave.

THE POTATO MARKET
Local Prices Virtually at Standstill
and Shipments lmpeded by
Shortage of Cars.
Movement From Growers to Ware
houses Not Nearly so Heavy
as That of Last Week..

In the local market but slight vari-
alton from the prices prevailing for the
past thirty days is noticeable, and
buyers tell us that there is no indica-
ton of an immediate advance. Re-
ceipts at the warehouses have this
week been much lighter than those of
last, which is partially attributable to
bad roads and partially to the fact
that many farmers have disposed of
sufficient quantity of spuds to supply
them with the cash necessary for i'm
mediate use and are awaiting higher
prices.
The congested condition of the big
markets to which most of the pota-
toes from this point are shipped seem
to preclude the possibility of higher
prices prevailing for, some time to
come. Then, again, there is the local
congestion. Most of the warehouses
are filled almost to their full capacity,
and this condition has been brought
about by the shortage of cars. Orders
in large number are standing on the
books of the local shippers, but it is
impossible for them to forward the po-
tatoes in consequence of this shortage.
Car shortage is general throughout
the country and this cannot do other
than have a bad effect on the market.
The potato crop throughout the
country is, according to statisticians,
below the average, and this should, if
the reports be authentic, have the ulti-
mate effect of advancing prices.
Very few potatoes in this neighbour
hood now remain in the ground and
but a very small quantity has been
affected by frost.

SAXON-TRABANT,

Married at Congregational Parsonage on
Thursday, Nov. 1.
Miss Ida Trabant, daughter of Mr..
and Mrs. E. N. Trabant of Bogus
Brook, and Harry Saxon, son of Mr..
and Mrs. JIM. Saxon of Princeton
township, were married on Thursday,
Nov. l, at the Congregational par
sonage by Rev. Henderson. - Miss
Olive Saxon, sister of the groom, at
tended the bride and Herbert Ander-
son the groom. Only the near rela-
tives of the bride and groom were in
attendance at the wedding.
The bride wore a gown of white or
candle while the bridesmaid was ap-
pareled in dress of blue silk. Both
carried bouquets of carnations and
smilax. rf
Immediately following the marriage
rites the bridal party repaired to the
dining room and there partook of
dinner which had been provided by
the groom's parents.
Both parlor and dining room were
decorated with flowers and evergreens,
producing a very pretty effect.
In the evening the young people we're
serenaded by the Princeton band, and
the marriage festivities continued un-
til after midnight.
Mr.. and Mrs. Saxon will reside for
awhile with the groom's parents and
expect to later move onto farm.

Only Two Contests for Local Offices and Light Vote Poed
---cole Carries Princeton Town and VILLAGE
Johnson Gets County s.. 49,

Two years ago John A. johnson
was elected governor by plurality of
1852 votes; this year he wins by 50, 900.
Many republicans who voted for their
party's nominee for governor in 1904
voted for Mr.. johnson last Tuesday.
They reasoned that if Johnson was
good enough two years ago he was
good enough now. Then again the
republican candidate in 1904 received
anywhere from $1,000 to $4,000 demo-
cratic votes. This year Mr.. A. l..
Cole did not poll five per cent of that
democratic vote. The governors per-
sonal popularity had very little to do
with the landslide in his favor, for he
ran equally as we'll in the counties
where he did not speak as in the coun-
ties in which he addressed largely
attended meetings.
Two years ago Hennepin county de-
feated the republican candidate for
governor-he carried the state out
side of that county. Last June at
the Duluth convention that county
practically dictated the nomination of
Mr.. A. L. Cole. Taking these facts
into consideration it is not diff
cult matter to account for Mr.. John
sons overwhelming victory at the
polls. 49, r.
Although the head of the republican
state ticket was defeated all the other
nominees are elected by comforta BILE
majorities. Both branches of the
Legislature are strongly republican,
although the democrats made some
slight gains. It is to be regretted that
Gen. James H. Baker, republican
candidate for the senate in Blue Earth
county, was defeated.
Cant and hypocrisy was fttingly re-
buked in Minneapolis by the turning
down of Percy Jones and the election
of James G. Haynes as mayor. Mr..
Haynes majority is over 1900. The
sane, sensible people of Minneapolis
are to be congratulated over the mag
nifcent victory they achieved at the
polls. Mr.. Haynes is practical,
straightforward man and once he is
fairly settled in Office he will speedily
rid that city of the gang of thugs who
have made it.their rendezvous for the
past two years.
In the second congressional district
James T. McCleary is defeated by W.
S. Hammond. Mr.. McCleary is an
exceedingly able man but his s'stand-
patism" tdid not please the hard
headed voters in the southwest corner
OF the state. Hammond will be the
only democrat in the Minnesota con-
gressional delegation.
Hughes, the republican candidate for
governor of New York, defeated VIM.
R. Hearst by $4,000 The majority is
small considering the enormous vote
polled. The republicans will have
large majority in the next congress,

Indirectly President Roosevelt and
Andrew Carnegie we're alluded to as
cranks and crazy fanatics last week
at mass meeting at the rooms of the
board of education in New York to
consider the application of the simpli-
fed spelling board to have the new
tangled photography forced on the
school children" tried on the dogs"
as one of the speakers expressed it.
Rossiter johnson, the author, ap-
peared at the meeting with protest
so numerously signed by we'll known
literary people and educators as to
indicate there is already a large and
organized revolt against the system
which is extending to every part of
the country.
Professor Brander Matthews of
Columbia, chairman of the simplifed
spelling board, openly admitted he
would not use the new spelling if he
were writing another novel, as it
might hurt the sale of the book.
1t was hot meeting from start to
finish. The first speaker was Profess
sor Matthews, who declared the Eng
lish language was the worst of all
modern languages, freakish, violent
and absurd. He asked the committee
of the school board to authorize the
new spelling in the schools. He
apologized for the much criticised
word "thru,' which appears in the
list of 300 words sent out by the SIM
plifed spelling board, and said the
board was not responsible for it, but
the National Educational association.
Rossiter johnson attacked the whole
simplifed spelling scheme. It would
not save space Or diminish the size
OF books. Poor spoilers would still
spell poorly no matter how short
the words. The new spelling would
obscure the etymology and destroy
its historical significance. Many
words would look so much alike it
would strain the eye to read them. He
read these extracts from letters he had
received about the innovation: /:
Edith Wharton called it "desecra-
ton of our speech.''
Professor Marvin r. Vincent of
Union Theological seminary wrote
that he "detested the whole business. :"
Julian Hawthorne said simplified
speller would s'murder his own mother
and dishonor her grave"
Molly Elliot Seawell wrote: 81
have much pleasure in signing the in
closed protest against the crazy SPELL
ing advocated by certain cranks of
high and low degree. think it
violation of good taste, good sense
and almost of good morals. It would
put out of court every classic in the
English language. I am glad to know
that the naval institute has declined to
observe the presidents recommends
tion, or perhaps order, and still spells
decently.'
Charles Warren Stoddard wrote, 81
am natural born misspeller, and 1
don't have to go to the White House
to catch it's
Professor Taylor of Vassar said,"I
doubly deprecate spelling reform by
executive order.'
Professor John M. Cleary of Ford
ham college said teaching simplifed
spelling to some without the authority
to enforce it on all would tend to
create a caste in language, with one
spelling for the poor and another for
the rich and the literary classes. p
Miss Grace Strachan, district school
superintendent in Brooklyn, expressed
the same fear.
