A GOOD SHOW ING
BY the Mineral Point Creamery
Company.
INCREASING INDUSTRIES
Weekly Product OF 500 Gallons of
Ice Cream, $500 Pounds of
Cheese, $500 Pounds
of Butter.

The Mineral Point Creamery com
pauy made aud sold last week close
to 500 gallons of their Perfection
Pasteurized Ice Cream. Their cream
is giving splendid satisfaction They
are getting letters right along from
their customers stating that it is the
finest ice cream they ever sold; and
not like most ice cream mauufac.
turers, instead of their cream getting
poorer it is getting better. No poor
cream comes from The Mineral Point
Creamery company. They have what
is considered the best ice cream
freezer that has yet been manufac.
tured and the capacity Is from 800 to
600 gallons per day. So there is no
order too small or too large for them
to ill. The demand for their cream Is
increasing every day aud about every
train leaves our station has load of
their cream Thoroughly pasteuriz-
ing cream before freezing is the only
correct system. All the best ice cream
makers have decided that fact. IL
improves the flavor and makes il
healthful food product, as IL destroys
all disease germs.
In addition TO the above, the
creamery company makes 800 pounds
of cheese, and about ,, 800 pounds of
butter each week This is a good
showing for one of the industrial
of Mineral Point.

JACOBSON BY INFLAMMATION
j. F. Jacobson of Madison, Lac qui Parle County,
Receives Tribute of Unanimous Nomi-
nation for Governor of State
Rival Candidates, Realizing Impossibility of Stem.
ming the JacobsonTide, Withdraw From
the Race Early in the Day.

AS predicted by the Union, j. F.
Jacobson of Madison, Lac qui Parle
county, was nominated by acclama-
ton for governor of the state of Min
nesota at the state convention held in
st. Paul yesterday.
Realizing that it would be an utter
impossibility to stem the Jacobson
tide, the rival candidates withdrew
from the field early in the day.
Frank M. Eddy was selected to
place the name of Mr.. jacobson be-
fore the convention and he did so III
his inimitable manner, eulogizing the
sage of Madison for the record he had
made in public life and paying high
tribute to his worth as an American
citizen. Mr.. Eddy said that the choice
of Minnesota republicans had arleady
been made and that the only charge
which Mr.. Jacobson's opponents
could make against him was that he
eats pie with a knife. At the conclu-
sion of Mr.. Eddy's nominating speech
tumultuous applause swelled from the
big audience.
It was then that Attorney General
Young called for the floor and Sec
onded the nomination of J. F. Jacob
son. After a short address by Mr..
Young, Captain S. P. Snider also
seconded the nomination and retired
from the platform after a laudatory
speech amid an outburst of cheers.
John G.. Lennon of the Hennepin
delegation then moved that the nomi.
nation of Mr.. jacobson be made
unanimous and the motion prevailed
Chairman Steele Immediately ap.
pointed a notification committee con.
sisting of Mr.. Jacobson's three rivals,
E. T. Young, S. P. Snider and Joel
P. Heatwole.
Oar F. Reese then moved that the
convention proceed to nominate the
remainder of the ticket and the result
was as follows: Nominees: Lieuten.
ant governor, A o. Eberhart of Man
kato; secretary of state, Julius A.
Schmahl of Redwood Falls: state
treasurer, G. G. Dinehart of Slayton

Decision In Tax Cases

Judge Myron D. Taylor has rem.
dered his decision in the tax cases Of
Alberta E. Plondke and Elizabeth M.
Bartosch VS.. E. E. Whitney and
County of Mile Laos. The Judge
finds for plaintiff in one of the cases
which covers tax certificates aggregat-
ing about $3.50 and rules in favor OF
defendant, the County of Mile Laos,
in the other suit, which covers certiG-
Gates aggregating about $3.50. To-
gether with accrued interest, the total
amount involved in the two suits is
something like $4,000. If the suits are
settled on the basis of the courts
findings the county will be the gamer
by 81, 900 or 81, 800.
These two suits were brought to
enforce refundment of taxes and were
tried together at the October, 1907,
term of court and taken under advise.
ment. Subsequently decision was
rendered in favor of plaintiff. A mo.
ton was thereafter made by Attorney
E. L. Mcmillan, who was engaged
to assist County Attorney Ross, for
a new trial. This was granted and at
the April, 1908, term of court the
evidence was again submitted and the
cases again taken under advisement.

Engineer Cooley Inspects Road.

State Engineer Geo. w. Cooley
came up on Tuesday evening from St.
Paul and yesterday morning inspected
the piece of road between J. G. Van
Alstein's and VIM. Browns, on which
an experiment is being made. In this
experiment oats have been planted on
each side of the highway for the pur-
pose of keeping the sand from spread
ing and thus maintaining good road.
Mr.. Cooley is much pleased with the
result and advises that the plan be
adopted on other sandy stretches of
road. He says, however, that the
farmers would confer a favor on him
by desisting from pasturing their cat
tie on the oats along the wayside and
from driving their teams over the
seeded strips.
The state highway commission has
81, 700 available for the county of
Mile Laos as soon as the board of
county commissioners make the
necessary appropriation - SIS, 400
to draw that sum, and Mr..
Cooley would like to see the amount
utilized. From personal observa-
ton in this county he knows that it
can be used for road Improvement to
great advantage. Mr.. Cooley saws
that some good work has been done
between Milaca and Cove, but that so
far he has received no report of the
survey or the amount of work accom-
plished as required by the statute.
Mr.. Cooley is rendering every
assistance possible to road builders,
and has had a number of charts
printed illustrating the most substan-
tial kinds of bridges, but it is neces-
sary that he have the cooperation of
the public in order to bring about the
best results. While in Princeton
Engineer Cooley was the guest of Mr..
and Mrs. M. S. Rutherford. He re-
turned to St. Paul yesterday morning.

it is in splendid shape. All lots have

request. Hereafter it would not be
just to spend the money contributed
in keeping up the lots of those who do
not pay the amounts subscribed, nor
does it appear right to pay for the
removal of dirt left from newly made
graves. A strong effort has been
made to serve properly the interests of
all, and a proper return is not asking
too much. Please send in amounts

and G. E. Elmquist of Rush
City.
When the ticket had been nominated
Mr.. jacobson was escorted to the
platform by Messrs. Young and Sni-
der and delivered his acceptance
speech, which was as follows:
"Fellow Republicans: want to re-
turn to you my most sincere thanks
for ths honor you have conferred upon
me and the confidence which you have
expressed. My only regret in this
campaign is that we have had to meet
and oppose some of our most sincere
FRIENDS, but have been assured by
some OF these men who have been my
opponents that I shall have their most
hearty support, and assure you that
it would have been the same if one of
them had been nominated. I would
have supported him most heartily.
II am not here to make speech.
You will hear from me later in the
campaign. But want to say that al
thougt some little hard feeling may
have arisen in the heat of the cam
paign, hope and expect to have the
hearty support of the party. I want
to say also that no pledges have been
asked of me and none have been
given by me.
II enter this coming campaign alb
solutely untrammeled, and I want to
assure you that there will be no
jacobson machine or any other
machine in this campaign. I realize
perhaps as we'll as anybody my many
imperfections as candidate for this
high office of governor of the state OF
Minnesota, but I feel that anyone
who aims and strives to do what is
absolutely right cannot go very far
! wrong, y
"ln my past political experience ]
have gained some knowledge Of the
institutions of this state and Of the
needs of the state, and I want to as.
sure you that if I am elected this state
will have the best possible effort oil
the next two years of my life.''
It would be impossible to improve
upon the ticket nominated and the
U i feels confident that every man
thereon will be elected.

LEONARD PRATTDI
One of Princeton's Respected Citizens
Passes Away at the Ripe Old
Age of Eighty Years.
Remains of the Good Old Man Are Fol.
lowed to the Grave by a Large
Number of Friends.

Leonard Pratt, one of Princeton's
early settlers, died on Thursday AFTER
noon, June Is, at $3.50 O'Clock, at the
ripe old age of so years and months.
Disease of the kidneys was the cause
of death. Mr.. Pratt was first taken
sick last winter and remained so
about two months, but rallied and
seemingly regained his usual health.
About three weeks ago. however. he
was again attacked with the same
malady, and compelled to take to his
bed, where he remained until claimed
by death.
Funeral services were held on Sum-
day afternoon at 3 o'clock in the
Methodist church and were conducted
by Rev. j. W. Heard. The interment
took place in Oak Knoll cemetery and
the body was followed to it's last rest
ing place by large number of people.
Leonard Pratt was born at Foxcroft,
Piscataquis county, Maine, on Jan
uary -, 1928. For a period of
eighteen years he lived on farm and
for ten years following was engaged
in the exploration of pine lands and
in the lumber business in his native
state. In 1856 Mr.. Pratt came to Min
nesota and located on claim in the
town of Baldwin. He was married on
April 20, 1859, to Miss Charlotte Ayers
! of Herkimer county, New York, at st.
Anthony, MIMI, the Rev. Mr.. Barnes
officiating at the ceremony. In 1862
Mr.. Pratt, with his wife, moved to
Princeton, where he resided contin-
uously to the time of his death.
Mr.. Pratt is survived by a widow
and two children: The children are
S. L. Pratt, station agent at Libby,
Montana, and Mrs. o. S. Canright of
East Troy, Wis.
There are few men better known or
more highly respected in Mile Laos
and the adjoining counties than
Leonard Pratt. In his business of
lumberman, surveyor and explorer he
had travelled over vast territory and
was perhaps the best posted man in
this part of the country on topo-
graphical lines. For about eighteen
years Mr.. Pratt was associated with
the late Charles Rines in the lumber
business and was an expert on log
ging.
In the death of this pioneer the
community loses a good, honest
citizen-a man who attended strictly
to his own business. "Len," as he
was Familiarity known to his many
friends, possessed one of the kindliest
of dispositions-he was always ready
and willing to render assistance to
neighbor in the time of adversely. He
was every inch man, and many are
those who will mourn his taking
away.
