Throws John Albright Twice In Succession
In Wrestling Contest.
Fred Hass of Princeton and John
Albright of Minneapolis, champion
middleweight wrestler of the state,
came together on the mat in the
national guard armory on Saturday
night and put up contest which
demonstrated that both men were we'll
trained. It was clean, scientific
wrestle from beginning to end and
each man put forth his best efforts to
win the match-it was a wrestle to a
finish. Hass had the advantage in
weight, he being about ten pounds
heavier than Albright, but the later
has had much more experience on the
mat. Hass is comparatively a new
man il the profession.
In the first bout, which lasted an
hour and four minutes, the contest
was strenuous one-Hass and
Albright each appearing to gain ad-
vantage alternately. At last Hass,
however, succeeded in getting a
double bar lock hold and put Albrig ht
on the mat four points down.
The second bout was OF shorter
duration-twenty minutes equally
strenuous. In this round Hass put his
opponent squarely on the mat with a
hammer lock and half Nelson hold.
At the conclusion of the match
Albright made a short address in
which he praised Hass, saying that he
was one of the best men be had ever
tackled.
Hass clearly demonstrated at Satur-
day nights exhibition that he was a
wrestler of no mean ability. He was
fast, his wind was almost perfect and
he understood the game thoroughly.
After a little more experience Hass
need fear no man in the northwest of
his weight.
Harry Pratt, the Zimmerman sport
ing authority, was the referee and he
performed his part we'll.

BIG CROWD ATTENDS
Many People From Surrounding Coun-
try Witness the Tug of War
Saturday Afternoon.
Contest for Largest Loads of Potatoes
Hauled to Market Proves to
be VeritabIe FiZZle.

Saturday was market day and, as
usual, a large number of people came
in from the outlying districts to take
in the sights and, make purchases at
the stores, some of which had adver-
tised special inducements for the
occasion.
So far as the business transacted is
concerned the merchants had no
reason to complain all of them did a
good business. But the potato haul
ing contest proved fizzle-there we're
but five registrations, the largest
load containing 1874 bushels.
For some reason or other the
farmers took little or no interest in
the competition. AS an instance, no
Rose potatoes were registered up to
4:l5 p. NJ, when Allen Hayes, seeing
a chance to win prize on a small
load, went to his home and brought
in two and two-thirds bushels of this
variety. He won the prize for the
largest load of Rose. There were
many good sized loads of Rose in
town on Saturday, but the farmers
bringing them in did not see fit to
register.
The prizes offered we're five dollars
for the largest loads of Triumphs,
Burbanks, Rose and Ohios, respec-
lively. There we're five entries, viz,
Alfred Swanson, 81 bushels Triumphs;
Carl Dehn, 1874 bushels Burbanks;
O. E. Stark, 4519 bushels Ohios;
Fred Iverson, 102 bushels Ohios A.
L. Hayes -2225 bushels Rose. With the
exception of Mr.. Stark all drew
prizes. George E. Rice, who had
offered an additional prize of five
dollars for the best load of Triumphs,
was afforded no opportunity to pay
out the AWARDING one made an appli-
cation therefor.
The tug of war was the most anus.
ing feature of market day-it proved
a drawing card. Four teams of six
men each, from the north, south, east
and west of Princeton, engaged in the
tussle, and it was a tussle which made
the best of them sweat. It would
have been difficult to get four teams
more, evenly matched than were these
men.
In the first contest the following
north against south and east against
west-were engaged: North-A. Har-
alison. N. Arsett, L. Peterson, G..
Nystedt, w. Liska, A. F. Wresch.
Soulful. Pierson, E. Moeger, Chas.
Babb, John Modin, E. Reynolds, ..
Thompson. East-J. Wilhelm, A.
Manke, J. Balfanz, o. Benson, Geo.
Tomlinson, Fred Scalberg. West-L.
'Gennow, A. E. Grow, John South, L.
Rusness, G. H. Schoenbach, b.
Moey. Henry Murphy acted in the
capacity of mascot. The north and
east teams proved the strongest IN the
first tug and these two, after a shor,
rest, pulled against one another for
the prize of S25 offered by the market
day committee. It was hard tussle
from beginning to end, each side
gaining and losing ground alter
nately, but the east team eventually
made a squirt and pulled the rope
from the hands of it's opponents. S.
A. Cravens, Magnus Sjoblom and
Ben Soule were the starters, judges,
etc, for the tug. ..
Whether Princeton will continue to
hold monthly markets during the
winter months has not yet been deter.
mined.

CAN LEVY 20 MlLLS1
Counties Can Levy Only Two Hills for
Roads Towns Can Levy Ten
Mills for Same Purpose.
Supervisors Can Also Assess Ten Mills
for Roads and Bridges Which
rlay be Paid in Labor.

Here in Mile Laos county too much
dependence is placed in the county
commissioners for assistance in road
improvement. Until 19O7.a one mill
tax was all that could be levied for
county road and bridge purposes; in
1907 the law was amended and maxi
mum levy of two mills was authorized.
A two mill levy produces a revenue
of about Sd 500 in this county. That
is small amount to scatter over the
entire county. Oflate years a large
share of the county road and bridge
fund has been expended in the north
end of the county and rightly so, for
there is where assistance was most
needed.
The Union wishes to call particular
attention to the fact that the people of
the towns have it within their power
to levy road taxes to the amount of
two per cent of their real and per-
sonal property valuation annually
10 mills can be voted at town meet
ing and supervisors may assess 10
mills more of a road tax. The tax
voted at town meeting must be paid
in money, but the tax levied by the
supervisors may be either committed
in labor or paid in money, and in
the case of nonresident land owners
must of necessity be paid in money.
We find that the road and bridge
taxes for l9O8-the 1909 taxes have
not yet been extended-in the several
towns are as follows: East Side,
4 2-10 mills: Isle Harbor, 8 2-1O
mills; Kathio, mills; Onamia, 9-10
mills; South Harbor, 3 2-lO mills;
Bogus Brook, 7 4-l0 mills; Borg
holm, $40 mills; Greenbush, $40
mills; Hayland, 2-1o mills; Milo; 9
$40 mills; Milaca, 9-lO mills; Page,
4 CLIO mills; Princeton $40. Milo
was the only town in the county that
came near the limit, and Milo has
more miles of good roads than any
other stown. We have not ascertained
the amounts levied in each town by
the supervisors.
The point we are attempting to make
is this: A town can levy virtually 30
mills for roads and bridges, every
dollar of which is expended under the
direction of town authorities, while
the county commissioners are limited
to two mills.
We should think it would be good
policy for the towns in the north end
of the county especially, where so
much land is held by non-residents at
speculative prices, to vote every dol
lar of road tax that the law will per-
nit and expend the same honestly and
intelligently in getting better high
ways. The settlers can work out the
tax assessed by the supervisors while
the nonresident landowners will be
obliged to pay in cash or hire set
tier to work out the tax.
The unorganized towns that we're
formerly attached to Princeton are
now attached to the towns of Onamia.
Isle Harbor and other organized
towns north of Milaca. Why not act
upon the Unions suggestion and
levy sufficient road taxes to materially
improve the highways in each of the
towns? Why not give the non-resi-
dents who value their lands at fancy
prices an opportunity to assist in
improving old roads and opening
new ones?
