The Potato Situation.

the movement of potatoes from the
farms to the warehouses but on Fri
day and Saturday of last week many
wagons were in evidence at the re-

Shortage of refrigerator cars still
prevails and, as consequence, ship

been light, aggregating about 40
[cars.

Robert Clark RESIGNS.

In consequence of the illness of his
wife Robert Clark has resigned his
position rs janitor at the court house
and has been succeeded by William
Marsh. .,.
For more than Is years Mr.. Clark
performed his duties at the county
building faithfully, and we'll, and his
many friends will miss his presence
in the corridors and around town.
His REIMBURSEMENT of the job, how
ever, is compulsory from the fact
that his wife is now a confirmed in
valid and that it is impossible for
him to give her the attention neces-
sary. Hence Mrs. Clark has been
conveyed to the home of her daugh-
ter, Mrs. F. G. Wesloh, in Green
bush, where she will be we'll cared
for and where Mr.. Clark will be with
her and probably pass the remaining
years of his life.
William Marsh, who succeeded Mr..
Clark, is a good man for the posi-
tion as he has had considerable ex-
perience in the kind of work re-
qufred of him.

Ole Vista Injured,

Word was received here on Satur-
day from Hudson, Wis, that Ole
Vista had fallen from a roof upon
which he was working and was badly
injured. At one time Mr.. Vista,
who is a timer, worked for the
Evens Hardware Co. Mrs. Vista s
mother, Mrs. McCue, left for Hud-
son on Monday.
Yesterday the Union received a
letter from Mrs. Vista saying that
her husband on Friday fell from a
ladder, which slipped and threw
him 30 feet while he was ascending
to the roof to repair a chimney. He
was picked up unconscious and re-
NAMED so until Saturday noon. The
greatest injury was to his left side,
which is apparently para]yzed, but
hopes are entertained that he will
pull through all right. =.

No Bill of Particulars Forthcoming.

In reply to our question as to
where it proposed to begin economic
ing, the Duluth Herald sends us a
marked copy explaining. 1t would
lop off a number Of superfuous
boards. This is onlya drop in the
bucket and deals only with the polit-
ical end of it as most of the boards
were made to provide places for
political heelers. And by the way
many of them were created to make
room for hungry democrats. during
the Johnson regime. The real test
of economy comes in Topping off a
few millions in the other expenses
of the state. We trust the Herald
and the candidates will not speak
out so loud all at once that we can
not distinguish what they say on
this important point. Slayton Ga

Two Old Soldiers Go to sanit.rium.

Martin Leach and Charles Ander-
son, two old soldiers who lived in
Princeton for many year, have
gone to the United States sanitarium
at Battle Mountain, Hot Springs, S.
D., to be treated for rheumatism
and other ailments.
The Battle Mountain sanitarium
is a hospital for the treatment of
disabled volunteer soldiers who are
suffering from diseases which may
be relieved by the use of the hot
mineral waters and the climatic con-
ditions prevailing at the springs.
Medical treatment, board, room,

Martin Leach enlisted in Wisconsin
in 1862 in Company F of the Six
teenth Wisconsin, and in 1868 trans
ferred to Company N of the Thirty
second Wisconsin. He was actively
engaged in numerous battles, in
Guiding Mission Ridge, Lookout
Mountain, Kenesaw Mountain and
Jonesboro. and was with Sherman
in his famous march to the sea.
MI. Leach was fortunate throughout
his army career, the only injury
Sustained by him being the fracture
OF three ribs through the explosion
OF a shell, pieces of which struck
him while he was crossing a river
near Bentonvil]e. He was honorably
discharged on July 4, 1865. Martin
Leach is 70 years of age and came to
Princeton with his father. who was
also a veteran of the civil war, in
the sixties, shortly after the cessa-
tlon OF hostilities. He first lived on
the West Branch above town and
later moved into the village, where
he followed the mason business until
less than "a year ago, when rheu-
matism compelled him to relinquish
work. -...
Charles Anderson, who is also 70
years of age, lived at what is now
Dayton, Anoka county, at the time
OF his enlistment. He tramped to
Minneapolis in May, 1861, and there
Joined Company D of the First Min
nesota regiment-the regiment which
has now become famous in history
for it's bravery and it's brilliant work
in the field. The late Charles H.
Rines and George w. Patten served
in the same company as Mr.. Ander-
son. Charles Anderson was actively
engaged in all the great battles in
which the First Minnesota partici-
pated and through all he received
scarcely a scratch. He remained
with the regiment until it was
mustered out in May, 1864, when he
received an honorable discharge.
He came to Princeton in 1866, prac-
tically making his home here since
that time, although he was in Du-
luth and other places engaged, in the
land and lumber business on and off
for many years. He is now suffering
from rheumatism and other ailments
for which he has gone to the govern:
Imeat sanitarium to be treated.
The Union hopes the old boys may
find relief and enjoy their sojourn at
the Hot Springs. No Drawer soldiers
ever lived, as the army records will
show, than Martin Leach and Char
ey Anderson. r.
George Chalmers, another old
soldier living. in Princeton, expects
to 60 to Hot Springs this month.

How to Attain Old Aee.

The chances of attaining old age
are much greater if we live much of
our life in fresh country air. Statis-
tics 60 to show, according to DR..
Desc of Budapest, that the fourth
generation of the town dweller is
unknown; but enough is currently
reported to make the conclusion in
evitable that the sine qua non of
longevity is a certain amount of
time spent in the country. The city
child is subject to number of dis
turbing conditions other than: mere
absence of creature comforts, which
undermine the constitution by
throwing too heavy a burden on the
sense organs, through which exhaus-
tion of the central nervous system
follows; among these conditions are
noises, a perpetual round of hurry,
and amending sequences of incidents
exhausting the attention, to which
are superadded the physical discom-
forts of Initiated air and effluvia from
human beings and waste organic
products, besides offensive gases and
infectio1i-laden dust. To attain old
age we have to relieve ourselves
from worry strains and anxieties,
withdraw periodically from the
whirl of efortful existence, modify
our diet, omit the use of stimulants
and narcotics, and spend reasonably
long periods of time under pleasant
conditions in practical retirement.
Above all, amusement should be
simplifed and accepted rather than
sought after. Only vegetable and
semi-animal foods should be eaten.
