Communication.

Editor Union: Everyone with COM
mon sense knows, or should know,
that a band is good thing for town
and that a good band is an ADVERTISE
ment for a town. Good bands are
always found in good towns, where
the people realize their advantages
and give them liberal. support.
Then, how does Princeton expect it's
band to exist upon the niggardly sup
port it is receiving: The people expect
free concerts, and they have been get
ting them, but the boys are tired of
spending their hardearned money for
the purpose of supplying music and
instruments. They willingly give
their time, but they consider that the
people should at least contribute
sufficient to purchase music, etc.
The Princeton band has had a hard
row to hoe, and this in consequence of
non-support. Eighty-fve dollars is
the sum total of collections from the
business men, and there were those
who refused to contribute a cent. Ills
true that one man Of generous heart
gave US Sl0-the largest donation.
TO start the band cost from $3.50 to
$500, but it has to receive support to
exist, and this support is not forth
coming. Hence I would suggest that
the Commercial club take the matter
up and endeavor to create sufficient
interest to prevent the band from
gong to pieces. A Band Boy.

safe Dynamited.

The bank at Pequot, a small town
twenty miles north of Brainerd, was
attacked by cracksmen at 2:3O a. m.
Saturday. The safe was dynamited
and the outer doors blown out. The
noise aroused the town and the rob-
bers were compelled to leave before
getting into the steel chest. They got
500 in silver. The robbers. who we're
probably professionals, cut the tele-
phone and telegraph wires on both
sides of town and erected a barricade
OF railway ties near the bank behind
which to fight if necessary. They left
town on a handcar going south.
