"A Lame Defense of Gov. johnson

The republican members of the
house went out of their way last week
to give a slap to Gov. johnson on the

this measure in his message. but he
has a perfect right to his own opin-

There. were hundreds of Isanti
county voters in the last two cam

John A. Johnson was an apostle of

speeches by Messrs. Martin, Carpen-
ter, Payne and Allen and
Bountiful Picnic Dinner.

In your issue Of Jan. "a, the article
that speaks of the Fourth of July cele-
brration, 1861, as ''Princeton's First
Independence day celebration" can not
help but interest the "old timersn in
assmuch as Princeton held several
Fourth of July celebrations before
1851. Princeton held Fourth of Julv
celebration in 1858, and another in
1860, when more than 400 people we're
present. There were many speakers,
and the ladies furnished one of the
best dinners ever gotten up before or
since. The writer does not remember
all the speakers. Rev. Alex Martin
(Jlm Martins father) was one, Hon.
). 3. Carpenter another, and Dexter
Payne also spoke. Dexter was al
ways ready for speech. John Allen,
one of the first settlers of Princeton,
and in one respect very much like
Bob Dunn, as he was always thinking
about the ladies, made a nice speech,
telling how much the, women of our
country had done to gain ''our free
dom in freedoms holy land.' 49,
Both celebrations were held in the
grove southwest of the Goulding
hotel, and there was a good speakers
platform and plenty of seats for the
crowd made from clear lumber, the
kind we used those days, furnished by
Uncle Durham and Ben Soule, who
had saw mills in Princeton at that
time. We could write a volume about
the Fourth of July celebrations in
Princeton before 1861 and of the old
settlers struggles to make homes in
the new country. We had some hard
ships as we'll as many happy days,
and we fervently wish we could live
them over again. r. W. Walker,

500 MAY NOT BUILD
Supt. Pennington of the 500 Saws
That Road May Not Build Pro-
posed Line to Duluth.
Capitalists Timid and Will Not Invest
Money Because of the Hostile
Legislation Threatened.

1t looks now as if there would not
be foot of railroad built in the north
end of Mile Laos county this year.
At the request of several gentlemen
who are deeply interested in the de-
velopment of the beautiful Mile
Lacs country the writer interviewed
Mr.. James J. Hill last week with ref
erence to the proposed extension of
the Great Northern northward from
M1laca to Mile Laos lake and thence
on through Aitkin county to connect
with the Hibbing branch. Mr.. Hill
said that the Great Northern had con-
templated building that extension, but
under present conditions and in view
OF the hostile attitude of the state
officials and the legislature, he could
not induce his people to invest any
money in railroad building in Mime
sofa at present, and he was afraid the
Milaca extension would not be built
in the near future, certainly not this
year.
Now comes Mr.. E. G. Pennington,
vice-president and general manager of
the 500, in an interview, published in
the Minneapolis Evening Tribune of
yesterday Wednesday,, in which he
says:
You ask about our proposed line
to Duluth? Well, all [ can say is that
we had planned to build this year 225
miles of new road, but now it looks as
though we would not build one mile.
Why? Because the state legislature
is so down on the railroads and SO
many bills are being introduced hit
ting our state roads, and the railroad
commission has cut us down so on
traffic rates, passenger and freight,
that it will be impossible, if this thing
keeps up, to run railroad in this
state on any basis, let alone paving
basis.
Il might say that the interstate
commerce commission has not had the
whole.trEth.-of the situation in this
. ~
western country. Furthermore, we
cannot extend our road or build new
lines without money, and the invest
ors are hard men to find when there is
no surplus to draw upon to help
finance such venture.''
Undoubtedly there is a public de-
mand for some sane remedial railroad
legislation in this state, but if 1.-THE
of the radical anti-railroad measures
proposed should be enacted into laws
the best interest of the state will
suffer, and the development of the
great natural resources of northern
Minnesota will be retarded. There is
a crying necessity for more miles of
railroad and more miles of good
public highways in northern Mime
sofa.

SALOON DESTROYED.
SjobIom & Olson's ssGold rline'' Con-
surned by Fire at 3 O'Clock
Last Friday rlorning.
Residence of Arthur Payette and Fur
niture Therein Contained Are
Burned on Same Day.

Early Friday morning the saloon
on Depot street bearing the name of
"Gold Mine'' and conducted by
Sjoblom & Olson, was, with it's con-
tents, almost totally destroyed by fire.
1t appears that at 2::30 a. m. G. A..
Eaton, who lives over the Security
State bank, was awakened by a
bright light shining through the win
dows of his residence. Mr.. Eaton lost
no time in getting out of bed to in
vestigate and then discovered that the
back part of the building mentioned
was ablaze. Dressing as quickly as
possible he rushed into the street and
gave the alarm. The building being
OF frame construction it took the
flames but a short time to gain con-
siderable Roadway, and when the fire
department arrived, although it re-
sponded quickly to the call, the rear
end of the structure was being rapidly
consumed. -
Upon proceeding to attach a hose
to the hydrant located near the build
ing it was found that the frost had put
this hydrant out of commission. At
the Princeton drug store corner is To-
Gated another hydrant. This was dis
covered to be in working order and a
stream was soon being played upon
the fire. Subsequently the first hy-
drant was thawed out and another hose
attached to that, thus giving two
heavy streams Of water.
Despite the determined efforts of the
department it was found impossible
to extlnguish the flames until the
building and most of it's contents had
been reduced to ashes. The fremen,
however, succeeded in preventing the
spread OF the flames to adjacent frame
buildings and thus averted a con-
tlagration which threatened to wipe
out whole block.
The fire is supposed to have orig
mated at point where the stove pipe
ran through partition which divided
the saloon proper from a room in the
rear. 49, -
The building was owned by Henry
Newbert and was valued by him at
"a, 600. 1t carried an insurance of
81, 500 and drew a rent of $50 per
month. The stock in trade of Sioblom
q Olson was valued by them at $4,000
and was insured in the sum of So, 900.
1t is Mr.. Newbert's intention to
erect in the spring upon the lot
whereon the building stood and the
one adjoining a story modern
brick structure, but he has not yet
determined whether it shall be store
or hotel building. The site is a
tirst-class one for hotel.

ages ranged from IA to years, that
his wife died two years ago, that he
had been engaged in collecting ac-
counts and earned from two and half
to three dollars a day; that he also
worked at almost anything he could
get to do. He said that his last alb
sence extended over ten days: that be-
fore he left home, however, he put in
supply of beef, potatoes, flour,
sugar: dry wood, etc., for the use of
the children. He stated that they
were we'll clothed and had changes in
underclothing. He had been absent
from home more or less for two years.
He found it difficult to provide food
and clothing for so large a family.
Mr.. Mcmillan asked Winans whether
he did not think it best, under the
to have the children
placed in the state school until such
time as he was enabled to provide a
proper home for them. He, Mr.. Nc
MILAN, did not consider it right that
five small children should be left in a
house alone
To the question whether he could
properly provide for the children if
they were given into his custody Wi
mans replied that he could.
An adjournment of the case for
sixty days was thereupon decided
upon, one of the provisions being
that Winans live at home with the
children.

"A. Payette's House Burned.

On Saturday afternoon the home of
Mr.. and Mrs. Arthur Payette, about a
mile north of Princeton, together with
the furniture therein, was consumed
by fire.
At the time of the fire Mrs. Payette
and her sister had gone to town, leav-
ing Mr.. Payette at home to care for
the baby, who was sick. While Mr..
fayette was putting the baby to bed
IN the parlor he was startled by a
roaring noise and ran to the doorway
to ascertain the cause. He then dis
covered that the house was on fire and
that the flames were rushing through
an open door on the upstairs landing.
thinking he could extinguish the
flames by means of bedclothes. he
with difficulty ascended to the top of
the stairs for that purpose, but there
found that the flames and smoke we're
overpowering and prevented him from
remaining. To avoid being burned
Mr.. Payette jumped from the ton of
the stairs to the ground. He then
wrapped the, baby in blankets and
carried it to: place of safety. BY
that time the fire had gained such
Roadway that it was impossible to get
it under control. The only thing
saved from the fire was a sewing ma
chine. ,ea.
The total loss is estimated at $4,000.
An insurance Of $1,000 was carried on
the house and $500 on the furniture.

The Salubrious Climate of WASHINGTON.

A letter received this week by Mrs.
Harry Mcclellan from Mrs. Annie
Mcclellan at Bellingham, Washing
ton, says that at the time of writing
the thermometer registered 1S degrees
below zero, that several inches. of
snow covered the ground and that
people were skating and sleighing.
All the waterpipes were frozen and
plumbers were demanding 81 per hour
for their services. Besides this fuel
famine prevailed and all the old build
ings throughout the city were being
pulled down and burned. People were
also burning the fences around their
premises and large quantities of good
lumber was also being utilized for
fuel. Glorious, indeed, is the climate
of Washington.

How Demagog1sm Affects This County.
Milaca people hope that their town
will be made division Headquarters
of the Great Northern in the near
future. In this connection the Times
quotes travelling man as saying he
was informed last week by prom
inent official of the company that he
expected another year would see trains
running north out of Milaca to the
Mile Lacs lake country.
The writer can state, on the author
ity of Mr.. James j. Hill, that the
Great Northern will not build north
from Milaca this year. Mr.. Hill said
that owing to the hostile attitude of
the state administration and the legis-
lature he could not induce his people
to invest any more money at present
in new railroad projects in this state.
He thought there was little prospect of
the road being extended north from
Milaca this year. Railroad batting
may pay demagogic politicians but it
retards the opening up and develop
ment of Mile Laos county.

Joe DonS Toms Pants.

Are you shrinking Joe?" "Where
did you get those pants?" were
among the questions asked our
esteemed county attorney on Saturday
morning while he pursued the even
tenor of his daily calling. To the
first question Mr.. Ross paid no other
attention than to reply that he could
"prove a negative." But when the
second was put to him he became a
trifie indignant. "Where did I get
these pants, sir? doesn't appear to me
to be any of your business. Do you
think I stole these breeches, sir: or
what do you think? Can't I get a
pair of pants pressed at the tailor's
without being subjected to auda-
cious Interrogation? Avast!' Mr.
Ross subsequently discovered, how
ever, that he was wearing a pair of
pants twenty sizes too large for him
the tailor had handed to him someone
else's breeches-and from the amount

Comparisons, we have been told, arc
Gus. But nevertheless although com
parsons are these things, they are also
valuable assets in pc nts of debate,
for instance if we can prove that A
is similar in all respects to X and the
B compares exactly with x, then we
can state with good assurance that A
and b are exactly the same, and we
have back of us the authority of the
old mathematicians.. But If we try
to prove someth.ng by points of SINH
larity, we must be careful with the
comparisons, for if they are not well
defined, they leave loop holes which
are in truth dangerous and odious.
with these TAGS in mind we Will
endeavor to point out a little similar
ity between certain conditions IN Mo
jave, a little town on the northern
egde of the Mojave desert in southern
California, and the town of Winnie
mucca. Mojave is known to be a very
warm place, but here we want to
inform the reader that we are attempt
ing no comparison of the wickedness
of Winnemucca and the heat of Nc
iave. Our point is in another direc-
ton. and in order to properly develop
it, we will tell a story concerning that
town, trusting to the readar to oeter
ne to what extent it has a bearing
on this town.
Mojave is one OF the oldest towns OF
California. Gray heads who entered
that section in the days of their
prime can yet be seen on tie street.

aged men there who are natives o.
the town.
Out from Mojave about six mile

of the mountain west of US on this
town. The name of this mountain is
the Soledad peak. The pioneers OF
Mojave have grown old in the shadow
of this mountain and children have
grown to maturity. In the early days
Of the gold excitement in California,
and internationally as mining enthusi

of Mojave roamed the sides of old
Soledad, sometimes bringing home ore
with favorable Indications, again re

were some who expressed the belief
that lodges of real worth lay in the
old mountain, while there w,re Others
who held contrary views and because

found on it. Thus time went on and
location notices appeared and disap-
Deared on the face of the mountain.
Finally one day three young mining
men. clad in khaki suits, broad
trimmed hats with trousers tucked in
their bootlegs, arrived in Mojave on
a prospecting trip. They were college
men, these young fellows, and they
knew country rock of favorable indi-
cat on for valuable deposits when they
saw it, and this they beheld in the old
mountain, even at the distance be-
tween the town and the mountain.
They begain making inquiries regard
ing the mountain from the townspeo-
Pile. They met with varying responses.
Some told of what had been found and
pred cted there was valuable mineral
in the mountain. Others, and strange
to say these latter were in the main
property owners of the town of Mo
.iave, and old timers, hooted the idea
of any man finding ore in Soledad
peak.
"Time wasted looking for it, said
one. 81 have been all over the face
of that mountain, and | never saw ore
that was worth a d remarked
another whose knowledge of ore and
mines embraced an ability to detect
free gold in a piece of rock; that is,
if the free gold were in large enough
pieces and if it were pointed out to
him.
The young men spent a week on
Solo dad peak. They were highly sat
isfed with the formations and the
general conditions. They came in to
spend Sunday in Mojave and told of
their faith that a ledge of collaborating
ore would be found some time.
.Ycung fools wastin' their time and
energy was the comments passed by
the knockers we a described above.
The young men went back again.
When they returned a few days later
they had found and located one of the
richest mines in southern California
found it on Soledad mountain in spite
of the knocking of the Knockers ans
the fact that hundreds. perhaps thou
sands had passed over the valuable
ground without detecting ore beneath
Although today the property-ownine
knocking citizens of Mojave have
profted immensely by the mines op.
Grating on Soledad mountain, it wa.
through no efforts of theirs that they
have reaped the rewards of industry
and what they have acquired beeaus
