good faith of this action, the dean re-
mained-but when it came to carry

them with all the adroitness of which
he is master. When asked why then
had he indorsed them, he stated that
he had written his preface before he
had seen the book" Grover Cleveland,
then chairman of the trustees COM
mittee, denounced and resisted Mr..
Wilson's methods. 1t was when about
to retire from the presidency of
the Carnegie pension. He was told
it was meant for broken down teach

a salary and about to be governors of
States. He persisted. But his
obstinate application vas turned

Do We Approve?
The Gettysburg incident throws a
light on Mr.. Wilson, too. In 1913,
when the fiftieth anniversary of that
battle was to be celebrated, we read
in the papers that Mr.. Wilson couldn't
be there on account of press of busi-
ness. Some of us remembered that
press of business had not prevented
Lincoln in 1868 from getting there
and saying few words. Suddenly we
learned Mr.. Wilson was to go, after
all. Had press of business let up, or
had somebody told Mr.. Wilson that
the American people had a feeling
about Gettysburg and he must go?
Well, If we do re-elect him, that
means we approve of him; that we
ratify and stand behind his actions;
that we like a Presidenr VINO

and we viii have the worst financial,
in our history.
The European armies will return to
farming and manufacturing when the
war ends. and they will be able to
produce manufactured articles and
farm products much cheaper than can
be done in the United States.
If these products of cheap European
labor are allowed to come into the
United States under the Underwood
low tariff law, many of them free of
duty, American labor under its higher
wage scale, American farmers under
their better standards of living. and
American manufacturers will not be
able to resist this foreign invasion.
The Wilson administration is a dis
NAL failure. 1t is a failure in its
economic policy under the Under
wood low tariff law. The Treasury
is bankrupt.
If the citizens of this district want
these conditions changed and desire
a strong. able government In WASH
ington. with a Republican House and
Senate pledged to the protection of
American labor, industries, farm pro-
ducts and business, they will vote the
Republican ticket next Tuesday.
1t is the old question of the pay
envelope and the dinner pail. Do you
want them, or do you want another
season like that of 1881? Do you
want Hughes and prosperity or Wilson
and no work at the end of the war?

THE PAY ENVELOPE FIRST

WYE have heard much this cam
wv paign of the Presidents peace
policies. of his welfare legisla-
ton, OF his recently found friendship
for the labor unions that once he con-
demned. All very well!
Nobody will deny that peace is
desirab BILE. that welfare legislation is of
vast benefit and that the eight-hour
law is all that both Mr.. Wilson and
Mr. Hughes have said of it.
But what good is there in peace, or
there is no work for us to do afhd no
pay envelope at the end of the week?
Men. The big issue of this cam
paign is that pay envelope. 1t is the
fundamental upon which rests the
whole structure of government. and
society and advancing civilization.
Every father of a family knows
that before he can give attention to
problems of society he must provide
a living for the wife and little folks
at home. If the cupboard be bare. 1t
must be filled. That must be attended
to before the man of the family can
think of anything else.
So. after all. the question of whether
or not the dinner pail and the cup
board at home are to be full or empty
is the prime consideration of every
political campaign in the United
States into which the question of q
high or low tariff enters.
1t is of supreme Importance. there
fore. for the industrial, farming,
manufacturing and labor interests,
and for business generally. that a Re
publican Congressman be elected from
this district next Tuesday.
A vote for the Republican Con-
gressional nominee and for Charles
Z. Hughes for President means the
return to power of the Republican
party next March.
Return of the Republican party to
control of the Government and Con-
gress will mean a protective policy for
American labor, industries and farm
products. which labor and industry
and our farmers do not now enjoy
under the Underwood near-free tariff
law.
This law took the protection off
Northern products and left it on
Southern products. The legislation
was in the interest of the South. a
small section of our country. This
section is now in control of Congress
and the Federal Government.
Under the first ten months of the
Underwood tariff law nearly four
smillion workers were cut of employ
ment and bankruptcies were frequent.
The European war began and a fever
ish prosperity, resulting principally
from the sale of munitions of war
and supplies to the European belliger-
ents. occurred.
If it had not been for the war the
same condition which existed for ten
months under the Underwood Tariff
law. prior to the beginning of the
conflict. would exist to-day.
The European war is certain to end
and unless the Republican party is in
power, with establishment of a. pro-
tective tariff policy for American
labor. industries and farm products.
millions of workers will again be out
of employment, factories will close,
the farmers will experience low prices,

American ambassador to Mexico dur

Knox's revelations at Chestnut Street

Macdonald is Astounded.

There occasionally comes times in
the life of an editor when he finds it
impossible to express his feelings
over some amazing occurrence or
passing event. Such an occasion pre-
sents itself to the editor of the Times
today. There are no words in our
vocabulary which would enable US to
give vent to the establishment and
wonder which fills our mind in con-
templating the result of yesterdays
election!
A city of $4,000 people, with annual
expenditures of a quarter of million
dollars, elects as one Of it's three
commissioners man who has been all
his life a teamster, absolutely with
out business experience and very linn
tied education. Another as commits
sioner who is practically boy in
years, absolutely without business ex-
perience, and lacking in the sound
judgment necessary in the manage
ment of the affairs Of a growing city!
Is it any wonder that the editors
amazement precludes the utterance Of
words. Emerson said: "The gods
themselves battle in vain with stu
pidity!"-St. Cloud Times.

Fourth of July Celebration.

Many people in the vicinity of
Princeton are anxious that the village
people get up a good, old-fashioned
Fourth of July celebration this year.
At a meeting of the Fair Board on
Tuesday the matter was informally
discussed. If celebration here would
not conflict with plans of any
of the surrounding towns the SEN
timent seemed to be in favor of
holding a celebration. If one is held
it will be good one as was evidenced
by the fact that $10O was pledged by
those present, and it was thought that
$4OO additional could be easily Sc
cured. The idea is to have a big pa
rade in the morning down town togeth-
er with speaking and patriotic songs,
while in the afternoon there would be
an attractive program of sports at the
fair grounds, including daylight fire.
works, and big display of fireworks
in the evening. -+

Superintendent of Schools Appointed.

Superintendent of Schools Appointed.
The school board has selected a
successor to Superintendent Marshall,
who declined to consider re-appoint-
ment, and Prof. W. H. Holland of
Saltwater will head the Princeton
schools beginning next year. The board
considered the applications Of about
20 educators, eight of whom applied
in person, before arriving at a deci-
sion in the matter, and carefully
weighed the qualifications of each.
Mr.. Holland has served as superin-
tendent Of the Saltwater schools for
eight years and comes highly recon-
mended as an educator of natural abil-
ity ripened by wide experience. His
contract calls for a compensation Of
$1,000 per year, which is $3.50 more
than has been paid Superintendent
Marshall.
Mr.. Marshall expects to retire from
the teaching profession, and reside on
his fruit ranch near Yakima, Wash
ington. He has served as superintend-
ent of the Princeton schools for nine
years, and has labored hard for the
advancement of same.
All of the teachers have accepted
re-appointment with the exceptions Of
Misses Mulrean and Hoehn of Brick
ton and Miss Huse of Princeton.
Miss Huse will retire on her
teachers pension, and her place will
indeed be difficult to fill. She has been
particularly successful as an instruc-
tor of the little folks, and her retire.
ment will be regretted by residents of
the district having children to be en-
rolled in her room. She has earned a
long vacation, however, and all hope
that pleasant future is in store for
her.
The school board will fill these three
vacancies at later date.

SPELLING CONTEST
Princeton Wins Over Elk River in
Oral and Written Contests at
Armory Friday Evening.
Miss Frances Blocker of Princeton is
the Individual Champion Speller
of the Two Schools.

Princeton photographers again DEM
onstrated their superiority over Elk
River spoilers at the Armory Friday
evening, when pupils from the eighth
grades Of these two schools opposed
each other.
A brief but pleasing musical pro-
gram preceded the contest, and the
large audience in attendance enjoyed
every number. The high school or
chestra, under the leadership Of Chas.
Umbehocker, favored those present
with several selections we'll rendered,
and trombone solo by Allen Ross
was we'll received. The chorus, un-
der the direction of Miss Robarge,
elected generous applause also.
Twelve pupils from each Of the
schools participated in the contest,
and written test was given first.
PRINCETON easily won, the visitors hav-
ing rs misspelled words to 46 on the
part Of the locals. The oral contest
then started with Mrs. M. B. Hixon,
the popular Isanti county superintend-
ent of schools, reading the words, and
it was evident to those in attendance
that it was merely question of how
many Princeton spoilers would sur
vive the downfall of the visiting class.
FINALLY only one of the Elk River
representatives Florence Nord-was
in the contest, her companions hav-
ing been forced to retire after spell
ing not in accordance with Webster's
unabridged. In a short time Miss
Nord joined her classmates on the re-
tired list, and six Princeton represent
tatives remained. The contest was
continued to determine the Individual
champion of the two schools, and Miss
Frances Blocker carried off the hon.
ors, while Miss Ida Henschel was Sec
ond.
Misses King and Robarge, the local
eighth grade instructors, are deserv-
ing of commentator for the splendid
showing made by their pupils, and it
is to be hoped that other contests
will be arranged for in the future. A
taste for correct photography is de-
veloped, and a deeper interest in a
much neglected subject is aroused by
these contests while the memory of
the participants is also strengthened.
