REPUBLICANS BALK
ON RUSHED TARIFF
Threats Of All Summer Session
Fail to Hurry Members.
PROGRESS ON BILL SLIGHT
Senator Lodge Warns That to Demand
Enactment of Currency Law From
Weary Congress Would
Be UnWise.

Washington, July 30.-Republican
senators made it clear that they do not
propose to hasten consideration of the
tariff bill if the president and Demo
cratic leaders of congress are to insist
upon the enactment of currency legis-
lation at this session. Senator Gal
linger declared that the Republicans
we're in no temper to be forced, and
Senator Lodge insisted that assur-
ances of a prolonged hot summer ses-
sion would not be conducive to hasten
ing tariff action.
Discussion ON this point arose when
Senator Gallinger sought information
as to the intent Of the Democrats.
Senator Simmons said he hoped that
the Republicans were not making
threats purposely to delay passage Of
the tariff, which all business interests
wanted settled Immediately. Republi.
can senators assured him that they
were making no threats, but that 1t
was bound to follow that there would
be no haste with the tariff unless an
early adjournment should be the In
ducement therefore.
Will Not Delay Voting.
Senator Gallinger said that reading
in the morning papers every day that
the president would insist on holding
congress here to enact currency legis-
lation would not speed up action on
the tariff. Senator Lodge added that
it was most unwise to demand action
on such important legislation as the
currency of a tired out congress"
Progressive Republicans disclaimed
any intention to delay voting on the
tariff unnecessarily, despite what else
might be in store.
Following an attack on the bill by
Senator Sterling of South Dakota, lit
tie progress was made in consideration
of the earthenware schedule, several
hours being occupied in discussing the
rates on pumice stone and fuorspar
Senator Bristow complained be
cause the bill decreased the duty on
manufactured pumice stone only
about 80 per cent. Senator Simmons
said the reduction was made to bring
about competition.

Bloody Conflict in Balkans.

According to dispatch from
Vienna the Bulgarian and Servian
troops are practically annihilating
one another in the conflict now
raging. The battles are marked by
more bitter and bloody fighting than
prevailed during the war between
the Balkan allies and the Turks.
About 10000 Bulgarians and $4,000
Servians have lost their lives in the
hostilities of the past few days. In
the fight around Kotchana three Ser
Wan regiments were completely an
nihiated-not man lived to tell the
story Of the slaughter.
The mobilization of the Rouman-
ian army will be completed today or
tomorrow, when the troops are ex-
pected to cross the Danube into Bull
garia. and Bulgaria will either have
to accede to demands or hostilities
between these two states will ensue.
Bulgaria's army is reported to be
driving both the Servians and the
Greeks back. The fighting area
covers 5000 square miles and 100, 900
noncombatants have been rendered
homeless. The hostilities are among
the bloodiest that Europe has ever
seen.

National G. A. R. Encampment.

The forty-seventh national en-
campment Of the Grand Army of the
Republic will be held at Chatta-
nooga, Tenn, from September Is to
20. This years encampment is made
to coincide with the semicentennial
Of that deadliest of American bat
ties: Chickamauga, and there is no
escape from the thought that for
thousands of the veterans this must
be the last pilgrimage to the ground
they made sacred by the heroic deeds
of half century ago.
Every instinct of patriotism is
arousedSby the feeling that this, the
first Grand Army encampment to- be
held in a noted theater of war. is
also the first to be held in the real
south, placing upon the citizens of
Chattanooga the responsibility Of
sustaining the fame of southern hos
pitality.
A committee of Chattanooga S
business men has been appointed to
make all necessary arrangements for
this great encampment: and nothing
will be left undone to give the boys
in blue a royal time.

DAMAGE FROM STORM
Several Barns Blown Down and Frap.
ments of Structures Are Scat.
tered Over Large Area.
Lightning Strikes Barn of William
Trunk and Fire Destroys Build
ing and Live Stock.

A terrific wind. rain and hail
storm, accompanied by heavy thunder
and vivid flashes of lightning, caused
considerable destruction of property
in the surrounding country on Friday
night, but: luckily, Princeton village
did not suffer much.
A barn on the farm of William
Trunk, in Baldwin township, was
struck by lightning and burned to
the ground from the fire which re-
suited. A horse, two COWS and a
yearling heifer, which were in the
building at the time, persisted. Mr..
Trunk carried an insurance of $500
on the building and $500 on the stock
in the Glendorado Farmers Mutual
Fire Insurance company.

moved five feet from it's foundation
by the force of the wind and twisted
out of shape.
Another barn, on the farm of
August Sigfridson in Wyanett, was
struck by the wind and the pieces
scattered over a large area. No in
surance was carried on the structure.
Fred Moline of Karmel lost a barn
in similar manner-it was literally
torn to pieces. His dwelling house
was also damaged. Mr.. Moline car
ried an insurance of 1000.
Two old oak trees and a Eastwood
were snapped off on Charles Keith s
lawn, and one of the oaks fell directly
upon tent in which Mr.. Keith s
man usually sleeps. AS luck would
have it the young man was on visit
in the country upon that particular
night. or he would likely have been
f1attened out like a pancake, as the
tree fell directly across his cot.
A tall poplar tree was struck by
lightning near Vic Ossell's place and
reduced to matchwood, and an old
oak tree blown down-the trunk
snapped in tWO-in Mrs. c.. H. Rines'
yard. Fortunately no damage was
caused to either person or property
by the falling of these trees.

A Deserving Village Emplove.

The Union believes in giving
praise where praise is due, and for
the admirable manner in which NAL
colin McKinnon attends to his duties
-sprinkling the streets and keeping
them in good order-he is entitled to
the thanks Of all. In dry weather
Mr.. McKinnon's time is fully oc-
cupied in keeping the dust laid on
Main and First streets, and in
moist weather he is constantly en-
gagged in patching up the bad places
in the village thoroughfares. After
every rain storm he uses the split
log drag until Main and First
streets are as smooth and hard as an
asphalt pavement: then he sees to
it that unsightly rubbish is removed
from the streets. There is no vii
lage employe who works harder or
accomplishes more than Malcolm
McKinnon. He is on his job all the
time and his work counts.

Revisits the Scenes of His Youth

For the first time in 20 years jeff
Latta of Elk River visited Princeton
on the Fourth, and was agreeably
surprised at the great changes for
the better that have taken place in
the village during that time. but he
deeply regretted that so many of his
old-time friends had passed to the
great beyond in two decades.
Mr.. Latta came to Spencer Brook
with his family from Ohio in 1857
and resided in that township for a
number of years. He spent his first
winter in the Rum river pineries in
1864, when he was youth of Is, and
ever since that time in one capacity
or another he has been engaged in
the logging and numbering business
from Winnipeg to the Gulf of Mexico
and on the Pacific coast. He re-
Gently returned from two years
sojourn in Louisiana, where he held
a responsible position in a sawmill
operated by northern men.
"1n all my wanderings, Mr..
Latua remarked to the writer, II
have found no prettier or more pros
porous town than Princeton. There
is no better country anywhere than
old Minnesota, and your town is To-
Gated in the best part of it,
1t is needless to add that Mr.
Latta received a cordial welcome
from his Princeton friends, all of
whom were pleased to meet him and
talk over the years that are flown.

Who Gets 1t?

When J. Smith, Minnesota
farmer, drove into his nearest town
with 50 sacks of grain to sell he got
for it such price as was then current,
less the freight to Minneapolis. He
was the man that paid the freight:
The grain went through the rami-
flying process of the Minneapolis cash
trade, the commission man, the ele-
vator man, the miller, the baker,
the consumer of bread. But J.
Smith, who raised the grain, paid
the excess freight.
Now comes 'Uncle SAM and
orders Common Carrier" to give
back the excess. Who gets it?-Min-
