.PRINCETON'S FRIEND
J. j. Hill Always Ready to Redress
Grievances When Brought
to His Attention.
Southern Lines Rank Discrimination
Against Princeton and Other
Towns on This Line.

For some time past farmers have
complained that higher prices we're.
being paid for potatoes in the towns
on the Coon Creek cutoff than was
being paid at Princeton and other
towns on this branch of the Great
Northern. The complaint was we'll
founded, but it was not the fault of
the potato buyers here and of the
other towns along this line. The
southern lines of railroad had made
a rate of IS cents per hundred pounds
from St: Paul and Minneapolis and
all points on the Coon Creek cutoff
to terminal points in California,
while the rate from Princeton and all
points on this branch of the Great
Northern was Is cents per cwt. plus
the local rate to St. Paul. The local
rate from here to St. Paul and Mime
apolis is $40 cents per cwt. Hence
there was discrimination of $40
cents per cwt. against Princeton and
all points west of Brook Park on the
st. Cloud & Hinckley branch, thus
enabling the potato buyers of the
Coon Creek cutoff towns to pay $40
cents per hundred pounds more for
potatoes. California is the best
market this year for Minnesota Bur-
bank potatoes and large quantities
are being shipped there. W. b. Fer
rell & Co. have already shipped 40
cars and have orders for thousands
of bushels to be filled as soon as cars
can be had.
Farmers can now rest assured of
getting as good prices in Princeton
for their potatoes as in any town on
the Coon Creek cutoff.
It was not the fault of the Great
Northern road that points on the
Princeton and Hinckley branches were
Disseminated against. It was the
fault of the southern lines. When the
matter was brought to Mr.. J. J. Hills
personal attention he Immediately
took steps to have the wrong righted.
Mr.. Hill has always manifested a
friendly interest in our town and his
friendship is appreciated by the ma
jority of our people.
The following correspondence is
self-explanatory:
Princeton, Mimi, Jan. 26, 1907.
James j. Hill, Esq. Great Northern
Building, st. Paul, MINI.
Dear Mr.. ll:-You have many i'm
portant matters that demand your at
tention at this time and this letter will
be brief and to the point.
In talking with you last Tuesday
called your attention to the fact that
the potato-buyers here labored under
a handicap in the matter of rates to
terminal points in California The
rate, as understand it, at all points
on the Cambridge line is IS cents per
cwt. The rate from Princeton is rs
cents plus the local rate from here to
st. Paul which is 6 $40 cents per cwt.
In other words the Cambridge ship
per has an advantage of 6 $40 cents
per cwt. over the Princeton shipper.
thus enabling the potato buyers on
the Coon Creek cutoff to pay almost
five cents per bushel more than can be
paid on the Princeton branch.
You have always manifested a
friendly interest in our little town.
and 1 am proud to say the majority of
our people reciprocate that feeling.
With best wishes, I remain very
respectfully yours,
r q DTTNN

GOT EVEN WITH SHERMAN

Gen. Sherman once possessed an
Irish servant whose forte was ask
ing questions and trying to find
out the why and wherefore Of every
Thing he was told to do. During
battle an orderly one day appro-
ached the general and told him
that his favorite horse, Ross, had
been struck by a cannon ball and
killed, says Tit-Bits.
Calling his Irish servant, the
general said;
"Why, sir, is Ross dead?" be
gan the man. Gen. Sherman rose
up in his wrath, saying:
"Never mind whether he is dead
or not-I told you to 60 otit and
skin him. The man returned
bout three hours later, and Sher-
man hailed him with the words:
"Where have you been? Does
it take YOU three hours to skin Il
Lorse?" "No answered Mike,
but it took me three hours to catch
hiu;."

POStmaSterS Are
Busy.

Commencing the first of this
month and continuing for thirty
days, the various postmasters OF
the country will have their hands
full on account of an order issued
by the postal department, calling
for the weighing of all mails.
AT every postofice i'll the land
the postnasters are required to
keep an accurate account OF every
piece of mail received at their Of
fees. The mail for every State in
the Union must be weighed, and
an account of the pounds or ounces
sent out each day be kept. The
object of this order of business is
to determine the average amount
of mail handled. The data thus
obtained will be used when the
government awards the railway
mail contracts.

POLITICAL POT
WILL SOON
BUBBLE.

1t is about time for the various
political parties in the State to be-
gin the work of putting their pins
in place for the coming campaign
which, from the present outlook,
will be one of the warmest for
many years. Party leaders are
now shaping things over banquet
board and in their offices, and the
time is about here when the vari-
Gus county central committees and
the State central committee will
prepare to "put up the fight OF
their lives" Party lines have been
all shot to shoestrings the past year,
and there is much work to be done
to pull the people into the line of
their respective parties.
In the Ia counties of Nevada
there will be entire county tickets
to be chosen and full Legislative
representatives are to be elected; ;
a Congressman and one Supreme
Judge are also to be chosen. AS
1908 will be a Presidential year,
the campaign will be lively and in
teresting.-Virginia Enterprise.

DEMAND WILL
RAISE PRICE.

The present depression in the
copper market is caused by the
concerted action of European con-
sumers, according to the opinion
of E. A. Norton of Denver, and
the metal will shortly find its price
level, which he places at from 20
to % cents. Mr.. Norton issinter
ested with English and New York
and Virginia capitalists at En-
campment, near the Wyoming and
Colorado line.
"The average price of copper for
25 years was 14a cents" said Mr..
Norton, "but it will not be that
low again for any length of time.
The dem and is so great that the
present quotation of Is to II cents
cannot long prevail. / have re-
Gently visited the largest consum-
ers in Europe, and l am satisfied
from the information l gained
there that copper will shortly set
tie down to from 20 to % cents
and remain at that standard price,
Mr.. Norton is entertaining the
owners of the copper properties in
which he Is interested. The same
capitalists own 81, 900 acres of land
in Carbon county, Wyoming, and
are now engaged ia placing it un-
der irrigation. Ia order to bring
their Encampment properties
within reach of the market, the
company is constructing a railroad
from there to Walcott to connect
with the Union Pacific, a distance
of 45 miles. Thirty-6ve miles of
this new road is already completed
and the rails are on the ground for
the remaining stretch. When the
spur is completed it will open a
new coal field that will be Within
easy reach of Denver, the Hahn's
peak country, in which Encamp-
ment is located, being exception
ally rich in coal as well as copper.
1t will place new coal field at
Denver's door and l hope will ss-
sist in settling the prices OF coal" :"
said Mr.. Norton. I'VE are in the
copper mining business, but the
opening of the road to give US a
direct shipment for our ore will
serve also to place this new coal
oa the market

Fined For Delay
ing Tails.

The announcement OF a $780,
600 fine being imposed by the Fea-
eral postoffice authorities OH the
Southern Pacific because the over
land mail service has been unsat-
isfactory to the Postoffice Del art
ment, has resulted in an order be-
ing issued to all crews working on
fast mails to get busy. Discharges
are threatened unless the. work is
more thoroughly performed.
The Postmaster-G General, accord
ing to the contracts made with the
Southern Pacific, has the right to
exercise his own judgment whether
delays in the arrivals of overland
mails is due to unavoidable acci-
dents. In the cases reported Sat
urday, when the news of the fine
became known, in the East, the
Postmaster General thought the
reasons insufficient to excuse the
agents of the corporation.
1t is rumored that the fast mail
runs along the line through Ne
vada will be taken out of the hands
of the engineers and fremen who
now have them.-Reuo journal.

A BOOST FOR Me-
vADA.

ouuRo ". ~. OOOuRln OF Tue
Salt Lake Telegram, and one ol
the best friends Nevada has ever
had, gives the following editorial
in his paper on the camps of this
State:
For many years the Nevada
mines yielded $50, 100000 annually
She promises to renew the old
programme next year, and to an
crease upon that for several years
to come. Her new districts are
getting to the real production
point, while several of her old dis
tricts are developing wonderfully.
Eureka is doing better than at any
time since in the eighties; prepar-
ations are going on to give a new
and wonderful lease of life to old
Tuscarora; Silver Peak, the wealth
of which has long been known,
but because of its isolation and
want of water has remained unex-
plored, will in the next six weeks
be reducing 600 tons of ore per
day with a first rate prospect of
doubling that amount in the early
Spring. That district now has a
railroad at its doors and an abund-
ant water supply. Old Phoebe is
getting into producing form. Cap
tain McSherry's NJ W mill will be
running soon after the railroad
reaches there, while thousands of
tons of shipping ore are waiting
that same road.
"There is extensive work going
ON in old White Pine, and in the
same county, Ely, with every stroke
of the pick, is adding to the assur-
ance that it will be the biggest and
most permanent copper camp in
the United States.
North of Tuscarora, in the old
Mountain City District of gold,
the mines are yielding better than
at any time since in the late seven
ties.
"The Glasgow & Western has
for several years been developing
its ore bodies until it probably has
more ore in sight than any other
company in the west. Except for
the trouble of getting coal, the
great works of the company at
Golconda would be in full blast.
BY the way, in those works the
Mckuiston concentrator is in
stalled, which for concentrating
|sulphide ores is the simplest and
most wonderful machine ever de-
vised.
But the new camps are attract
ing most attention = Goldfield,
Tonopah, Bullfrog, Yerington,
Fairview, Wonder, Manhattan,
Seven Troughs, Round Mountain
and many others are all sho wing
splendidly and the promise for
next year is filled with hope.
Nothing SO wonderful as Nevada's
reawakening WAS ever seen i'll the
mining world.
"The State lay almost in a coma
for ten years until the Tonopah
discovery turned attention that
way once more and since then
veritabie transformation has
been seen.
"The State suddenly resumed
its old place at the head of mining
States and she promises to holc
that position--unless overtaken by
| Utah-for an indefinite time in the
future.
"Steam and the automobile have
annihilated her weury distances
her frontier has passed away, anc
the developments seem to indicate
that she held her rarest treasures
