are not some you can spare.
There are at present almost $50

Why Tolerate Such Reasts7

Evidence adduced at the trial Of the
I. w. w. in Chicago conclusively
proves that Minneapolis was the prin--
cipal headquarters Of that aggregation,
of outlaws, from which their diabolicaT
deviltry against farmers was directed.
Their aim seemed to be to prevent the
farmers from garnering their crops
and to injure them in any way possi-
bic. The evidence also discloses that.
the I. w. w., with the connivance Of
their chiefs, robbed and maltreated7
every farm hand who did not belong
to their organization. And yet we are
informed that in a speech at Milaca>
some time ago, Mr.. a. C. Townley, the
head Of the Nonpartisan league, made
complimentary allusion to the I. W.
W., but when an indignant farmer
wished to know if he approved of their
methods, Mr.. Townley saw that he had.
gone too far and crawfshed.

Mrs. L. E. Fox Dies Suddenly.

Mrs. L. E. Fox was called to receive
her heavenly reward on Wednesday
morning at 7:15. Death occurred
suddenly and unexpectedly and the
news of her taking away cast a gloom
over the community. Apoplexy was
the immediate cause of her demise.
Funeral services will be conducted
by Rev. T. J. E. Wilson, Episcopalian
minister, in the Congregational church
tomorrow (Friday) afternoon at 2:3O,
and the interment will be in Oak Knoll
cemetery.
Mrs. Fox-whose maiden name was
Lizzie M. Wise-was born in Alder
shot, England, on December 26, 1857,
and came to the United States in 1871.
She was married to L. E. Fox at
Brockport, N. Y, on November ~,
1877, and II children were born of the
union, 9 Of whom are living sons
and five daughters. With her husband
and family, she came to Princeton
from New Richland, Mimi, in 1907.
Mrs. Fox was a Kind home lowing
woman, and good neighbor who will
be sadly missed by the people among
whom she resided. She was an affec-
tionate wife and mother, christian in
the true sense Of the word and was
generous to a fault. Her memory will
be long cherished by those who knew
her.

council and representatives of the Elk
River Light & Power company on

consisting of c. A. Jack, Fred Newton
and Attorney Skahen was appointed
by President Humphrey to draw up a
concrete franchise and contract and
submit the same to the council within
as short time as possible.

Memorial Services for Paul C. Davis

Memorial Services for Paul C.. Davis.
Last Sunday forenoon Memorial ser
vices were held in the Union church;
Elk River, for Paul c. Davis, who re-
Gently died in hospital in France.
The spacious church was densely
crowded for the occasion, as many
had come from far and near to honor
the memory Of the first Sherburne
county boy to die in France, and to
show their sympathy for the members
of his family. The seats of honor were
given veterans of the G. A. R., and i'm
mediately in the rear of the old boys
who wore the blue were the khaki clad
members Of Co. C, 18th Battalion Of
the Minnesota Home Guards, under
command Of Major Roe Chase. Gov
ernor and Mrs, Burnquist and Major
Curtis Of St. Paul were also present,
and the governor made brief but
eloquent and highly appropriate adj
dress. Rev. Mr.. Rotch, pastor of the
church, also spoke feelingly of the
brave young volunteer. The singing
by the choir was most excellent. The
floral decorations were beautiful.

Registration Day June 5.

Under the selective service act
Provost Marshal Crowder has desig-
mated Wednesday, June 5, as registra-
ton day. Upon that day every young
man who has attained the age Of FL
since June 5, 1917, is required to reg
lister for the draft. The fact that he
may be exempt by reason of physical
infirmity or other causes makes no
difference-he must register just the
Ssame, and the matter of exemption
will be decided on later.
Appearance before the local boards
on registration day is voluntary to the
extent that no one will come after you
to compel your appearance. But you
are required to appear upon that date,
and unless you do SO you will be later
obliged to do so under compulsion.
General Crowder is Of the opinion
that 100000 additional class 1 men will
be available in the United States after
the next registration.
Voluntary en1istments for men who
come under the draft will stop with
their registration. Excellent oppor-
tunities are open for number of them
at the present time in various branches
of the service. High school boys with
a knowledge of gas engines and man.
ual experience are particularly desira-
BILE for further training and the war
department has already made plans for
including a number of them in special
lied work.
Major John D. Yost, Minneapolis
xgrecruiting officer for the Minnesota
district, received authority this week
to enlist SO young men between the
ages Of 18 and FL years in the regular
army infantry and assign them to in
dustrial schools for training. The men
will be sent to Valparaiso, Indiana, for
classification and later will be dis
tributed to industrial training schools
in various parts of the country.
Young men with grammar school
education who have had experience
with automobile driving, repairing,
carpentry work, bench work, electrical
work Of any and all kinds, sheet metal
workers, blacksmiths and machinists
work will be accepted for this addi-
tional training. Only so such men will
be selected from the Minnesota dis
trict. .....
Young men who will be compelled to
register in June are urged to enlist at
once. Enlistment must be completed
I before June 5, SO that the last day
open for them in Minnesota will be
about June 2, as enlistments are COM
pleted and the men sworn into service
at Jefferson barracks, Mo.

Big Blow at Milaca.

part of the roof was blown off but no,

HONOR The SOLDIE
Honor the Civil War Boys Who Have
Died and the Veterans We
Now Have With Us.
Honor the Boys Who Have Fallen in
France and Those Who Are
Fighting Our Battles.

In the observance of Memorial day
this year we are called upon not only
to honor our soldier dead of the civil
and Spanish American wars, but our
soldier, dead who have within the past
few months died while fighting for
us across the seas. Then, again, it is
our duty to give all honor to the vet
Grams Of '61-'65 who are still with us,
and to the brave boys of 1918 who
are engaged in hammering the Huns
in France. Therefore Memorial day
this year should be more duly observed
than in any of the years that have
passed since the war Of the rebellion.
President Wilson, in a proclamation,
has asked that next Thursday be set
apart as "a day of public humiliation,
prayer and fasting" and it is only
meet and proper that we accede to his
recommendation.
We know that the inhabitants Of our
little village are loyal and imbued with
patriotism and that Memorial day will
be observed with due propriety, and to
that end the following program has
been formulated:
Old soldiers will meet at T. H..
Caley's residence at 1 p. m. on Me-
mortal day. At 1870, headed by the
Jones' drum corps, they will march to
the armory, where the following pro-
gram will be presented:
"Star Spangled Banner ................. Audience
With Orchestral Accompaniment.
lnVocatlon Rev. Geer
Selection Male Chorus
Address. "The Crisis" .......... Rev. w. B. Milne
Selection Ladies' Quartet
America" Audience
Benediction .......-................. Rev. Larson
Selection Orchestra
Automobiles will be provided for the
conveyance of the old soldiers and
their wives from the armory to Oak
Knoll, and the citizens committee
urgently requests that fraternal socie-
ties and other organizations, as well
as school children march to the ceme-
terry in honor of the veterans, of whom
but few now remain with US.
At the cemetery the ceremonies will
be carried out in accordance with
the ritual Of the Grand Army Of the
Republic, and the graves Of the de-
parted heroes will be decorated with
the Stars and Stripes and the fair
flowers of springtime.

WRITE TO THE BOYS.

Out on an ocean warship
Is a sailor boy in blue;
Don't you think that he'd be happy
If he had a letter from you?
Just to know he was not forgotten,
Way off on the ocean blue.
It's a small thing to write a letter
But he'd be glad to hear from you.
Out in a foreign country
Is a soldier boy in brown;
What wouldn't he give for a letter
just from his own home town?
has heard from brother and sister
and he's heard from mother and dad,
Blu ito know his friends think of him
Makes a soldier boy feel glad.
II you were a soldier in khaki
And your thoughts were bound to roam
Wouldn't it make you happy
To get a letter from home?
Ii you were a sailor lad
And from home were far away.
A letter would sure be welcome
From some one every day.
So write to the boys in khaki.
write to the boys in blue:
They will welcome a letter,
Be 1t from some n else or you.
