democrats and under his guidance the
democrats have held the balance of
power throughout the session among

most brilliant and resourceful is
Senator John Moonan- of Waseca,

upper body, like Schaller, Collier,

and not'prompted by a desire to do
injustice to the many members who
are entitled to individual mention.

Don't Be BuncOed.

Will a reputable firm advertise a
line of goods which it does not and
cannot handle? We believe not. We
have known of Irresponsible firms ad-
vertising a rival line with a reputa-
ton with the hope of getting prospec-
tive buyers to come to them and then
bunco them into taking an inferior
substitute. In buying an automobile
you should not only be careful in
selecting the make of car you wish to
buy, but should also be careful\ of,
and have confidence in, @the dealer you
buy from. 81 ~ St'.g ::
The Princeton Auto Co. is the :ex-
Eclusive agent for tile Buick cars in
the Princeton territory, and any other
firm advertising any agency relations
with the Buick Co. in this territory is
doing so falsely, and thereby expos
ing it's .unreliability. = 49, =.
Can you, Mr., automobile buyer,
afford to invest your good money in
so-called just-as-good car, when you
know the service and satisfaction you
can get out of Buick? If you buy

which is in a position to, and will
