Roosevelt Makes Definite Announce
ment That He Wants the Job
Again

After the proper amount of ad-
vance advertising and other flour
ishes to try to work the people up
to the former state of feverish ex-
pectancy Mr.. Roosevelt ON Monday
morning made the following an
nouncement:
II will accept the nomination for
president If it is rendered to me.
and | will adhere to this decision
until the convention has expressed
its preference"
The announcement had been dis
counted in advance and with the
exception of slight palpitation
among the trees in the forest re-
serves there was no disturbance
anywhere. In order to stir up a
little excitement Mr.. Roosevelt re-
vealed to the world the fact that
he had solicited the privilege OF
leading a regiment into Mexico last
year, showing how little regard our
ex-president has for the rights of
neighboring republic on friendly
terms with this country.
Mr.. Roosevelt also assures his
friends. 1t will be noticed. that he
will remain of the same mind for
four months or until after the re-
publican national convention. II trr<
this will surely be record for him.
Mr.. Roosevelt has now placed
himself definitely In his own Ana
MAS club as he Is on record several
times making the emphatic state
ment that under no circumstances
would he be a candidate for a third
term. Four years ago he was
equally emphatic In his statement
that President Taft was the best
man In the country for the place.
and today he 10 trying to defeat
him without giving the people a
single reason for his change OF
mind. The republican party will
hold him to his former statements.

grounds and the cemetery on
Memorial day to Go honor to the
old soldiers who have departed this
life. In the line Of march were a
number Of veterans who tramped
along to the time Of the martial
music discoursed by the. Citizens
band-o2d heroes who mustered all
their strength to enable them to
cover the long distance, and for some
OF them, no doubt, it will be the
last time they will march over that
ground upon azlike occasion. 1t was
a hard task for them, but none
would ttssi!nit that they were fatigued
thereby, Some of the old boys in
blue We're, however, too feeble to
tramp to the fair grounds and re-
luctantly took their seats in the
automobiles provided. The G.. a.
E. contingent was under the COM
mand of Commander F. a. Lowell,
while Martin Leach, and NJ. E.
Berry Of the Eleventh Maine regi-
ment, who was here on visit, were
the standard bearers. In all there
were SO old soldiers in attendance,
II less than last year: and so their
ranks will continue to dwind!e until,
eventually. there will be none left to
attend Memorial day obseryances.

improvements at Fair Grounds.


Andrew Bryson and his assistants
have commenced making improve
ments at the fair grounds for the
1912 exposition. The frame work Of
the new horse barn, which will be
40 by l2O feet, is already up and it
will be completed within a short
time. A phone booth, ladies' rest
room and machinery shed will also
be built, and an exhibit hall con-
structed where the machinery was
displayed last Year. This hall will
be Is by ,l20 feet. Another necessary
improvement is the widening of the
track, upon which men are now en-
gagged. Several other Improvements
will also be made. r-...
The fair grounds now are among
the very best in the northwestern
states, but it is the aim of the Mile
Laos County Agricultural association
to excel all others, and this aim will
doubtless become an accomplished
fact. In President Bryson the as
ISOLATION has man who knows ex-
actly what is required to effect this,
and he is working diligently and en-
Enthusiastically on the proposition. A
more exhaustive write-up of the
improvements will be given later.

attendance as usual, as was A. J.
Poole Of Milaca, but Tom Warren
and T. 3. Potts of the lake country
were absent. There were very few
veterans present from outside towns.
Heading the procession to the fair
grounds was the Citizens band,
under the leadership of S. P.
Skahen, which rendered music of an
excellent nature. r. E. Jones' drum
corps was not present upon this oc-
casion, having been engaged to play
at Elk River upon that%day. This
was the first time in the history of
the corps that it has failed to
furnish patriotic music in Princeton
on Memorial day.
A contingent of Company G., under
command Of Lieutenant johnson.
made a very fine showing in the pro-
cession-the boys demonstrated that
they were we'll drilled, and they
went through their military evolu-
tions with a precision equal to that

But the nation will nevertheless see
that their memory is honored and
their graves kept green.
One of the old veterans missed at
the Memorial day obseryances this
year was Joseph Young Of Milaca,
who, through sickness, was unable
TO be present. Mr.. Young is 90
years Of age, and this was the first
occasion upon which he failed to
participate in Memorial day cere-
monies since Wallace T. Rines post
was organized. Owen Bracken of
