Let's Spruce Up.

Many strangers will visit Prince
ton fair week, month hence. The
sort of an impression the strangers
carry away with them may mean
much to Princeton in the future.
Let us make our village as inviting
as possible. First and foremost the
streets should be put in as good con-
dition as possible. Every property
owner should make it a point to
have his or her residence and lot or
lots present neat appearance.
Trim the trees, cut down the un-
slightly weeds, NOW the grass and if
possible apply a little fresh paint
wherever needed. Let us put our
village in order and give the
strangers who may visit US in the
second week of September lasting
good impression of the place. Prince
ton is not backwoods town-it is
one of the most progressive villages
in the northwest.

Everything in Readiness for Fair.

-Four weeks from yesterday, Sep
TENDER 10, the twenty second annual
fair of the Mile Laos County Agri-
cultural society opens, and if in
dlcations count for anything it will
be by all odds the biggest and best
in the history of the association.
The barns and pens that we're
destroyed by fire last spring have all
been replaced by better and more
convenient structures. In fact
nothing has been left undone that
could tend to add to the comfort and
convenience of exhibitors and
sight-seers. The grounds and build
ings never were in better shape.
President Bryson has been giving his
individual attention to every detail
for the past two months. Every
thing will be in readiness for the
opening day. There are no fair
grounds in northern or central
Minnesota that will compare with
those of the Mile Laos County Agri-
cultural society.

Eberhart Growing in Favor.

With all due respect to others we
do not hesitate to say that Gov.
Eberhart, as friend of the people
of Minnesota, stands right at the
head of the class of past governors.
We do not believe that he is entirely
free from the faint Of corporation
influence, but corporations have
rights, as we'll as individuals, and
we believe that Gov: Eberhart tries
for a fair middle ground. We did
not always believe this. We have
watched him carefully and think
that we can see great improvement
in him. We believe that he is right
in insisting on the state manage
ment of public utilities. He is
right in many of his utterances.

Over $4,000 in premiums, in addition
to number of special prizes, are
this year offered to competitors at

Bad Hail Storm.

their optical nerves were on the blitz
and that neither one of them knew a
strike from six-cylinder roadster.
F. Nutshell played a spectacular
game at second and pulled off several
circus catches that figured strongly
in the diminutive size of the Prince
ton score.
Joe Porter made a pretty running
catch of Lance's drive to right field
in the early stages of the game. Joe
caught the ball on the dead run and
did somersault stunt just to give
the finishing touches to the play.
This game now leaves the two
teams in a tie, as Princeton defeated
this team earlier in the season. In
all probability arrangements will be
made for playing off the tie at the
county fair in September. This
game should prove a good drawing
card for the fair, as the teams ap-
pear about evenly matched.
This coming Sunday the Princeton
team will take on the fast Abeles
Bros. team from St. Cloud. This is
the team that played the locals a
to s game back in July, and have
since materially bolstered up their
team in one or two places, and have
been cleaning up their schedule in
good shape ever since that game.
The locals claim they are through
with their slumping streak and are
doing double practice work this week
to get into condition for this battle.
The support of the fans at this game
will be appreciated by the team.
Everybody turn out and help the
boys win just one more ball game.

JOHN LIND IN MEXICO
No Interference With His Landing at
Vera Cruz and No Demonstra-
tion in City of nexlco.
Latest Press Dispatches Say That
Lind Has Not Yet Delivered
Presidents Message.

The arrival of John Lind, Presi-
dent Wilson's personal representative
in Mexico City on Sunday night
after a tedious days journey from
Vera Cruz was devoid of any demon
stration-there were only few civil
ians at the railway station. He
was accompanied to the capital by
Mrs. Lind, William W. Canada,
United States consul at Vera Cruz,
and DR.. William Bayard Hale, conf
Dental agent of the president and
the state department.. At the depot
the party was received by Nelson
O'Shaughnessy, secretary of the
United States embassy, who has
been acting as charge d'affaires since
the removal of Ambassador Wilson,
and Charles E. Park, a member of
the embassy staff. Police in large
number guarded the approach to the
station as the party proceeded to a
waiting automobile and were driven
to hotel. Ample precautions had
been made by the Mexican govern
ment to guard against all demonstra-
tions.
On Monday morning Mr.. Lind in
stalled himself in temporary offices
at the United States embassy as un-
official adviser to the American
charge d'affaires, Nelson Onslaught
messy, with whom he passed several
hours discussing the Mexican situa-
tion. DR.. Hale also held a con-
ference with Mr.. Lind and Mr..
O'Shaughnessy later in the day.
Charge d'Af flares O'Shaughnessy.
in a report sent to President Wilson
on Tuesday, stated that the situation
in Mexico City is quiet and encourage
ing. At the same time John Lind
reported to the president and Secre-
tary Bryan that he was hard at work
on his mission but made no predic-
lions as to the ultimate outcome
: The latest press dispatches from
the City of Mexico contain a lot of
twaddle anent John Lind's visit to
FREDERICK Gamboa, the Mexican
minister of foreign affairs. From
these dispatches it is gathered that
Mr.. Lind made no proposition to
Mexico's foreign minister, neither
did he make any demand-he merely
''called upon" Senior Gamboa to talk
over the situation. John Lind,
through his dilly-dallying, gives the
general impression that he is afraid
of the consequences which might
result from the placing of an ulti-
matum under Huerta's nose. Or is
it a mere suggestion instead of an
ultimatum that President Wilson
intrusted Lind with?

Early Potatoes Coming In.

The local potato season has opened
and during the past week small
quantities of Early Ohios have been
brought in by growers. Prices have
ranged from IS to As cents per bushel.
Two cars were shipped by T. f..
Scheen on Tuesday and one by the
Mahaffey company-the first to leave
here this season-and other buyers
expect to ship cars this week. There
are many knobby potatoes among
those being dug now, which is attrib-
uted to the weather conditions
which prevailed in the early part of
the planting season. Potatoes
planted later, it is expected, will be
free from these defects.
