der are a few extracts from the gov
errors speech:
"Mr. Creel's article shows him to
be the mouthpiece of the nonpartisan
league as well as the mouthpiece Of
the federal administration.
Because we in Minnesota took the
position that disloyal leaders of the
nonpartisan league should not be
permitted to divide us here, we are
maligned not only by them but by
the mouthpiece of the federal ad-
ministration.
s'When Mr.. Creel says that tar and
feather parties were common in Min
nesota, he is again uttering an in
famous falsehood.
"The street car dispute, which was
instigated largely through the nou-
partisan league, was the only labor
disturbance Of any consequence in the
state during the period of the war
"Never until now could believe
that anyone occupying such a prcmi-
nent position as Mr.. Creel would stoop
to the publication Of so mucn untruth
"The public safety commission never
at any time prohibited the noapartisan
league from holding public meetings
within our commonwealth.
''This bitter attack is putting into
practice in it's worst form the ugly
politics of which George Creel himself
complains, and on his part is the mcst
contemplate insult that could be Of
fered the patriotic people of our state
regardless of party"

Boys Show Girls They Can Cook.

From what we hear of the culinary
ability displayed by at least four Of
our high school boys it would seem
that the girls had better "look to their
laurels." Not many days ago four
fair young misses received invitations
to partake of dinner at the home of
one of the boys-said dinner to be pre-
pared by said young men.
History does not relate, as no
amount of urging will persuade the
girls to confess, whether or not they
fortified themselves against possible
results by eating a substantial lunch
before faring forth to keep the dinner
engagement. But if. they did or if they
expected to be dined on ready made
food hastily prepared from cans which
(perish the thought) might have been
their solution of such a problem) they
were splendidly disappointed. If the
girls were planning to gracefully &C.
cept apologies and to overlook glar-
ing discrepancies they were quickly
undeceived, for they found awaiting
them bounteous repast of delicious
ly prepared food.
Everything served had been pre-
pared by the boys with no outside aid,
and each dish We'd with all the others
for first favor in the opinion of the
guests. In fact both hosts and guests
partook so generously of roast pork
with gravy, riced potatoes, creamed
peas, baked beans and fruit salad that
the sherbet and cake had to be left for
late lunch-which lunch was fitting
close to an enjoyable evening. After
gallantly escorting home their guests
the boys returned to the scene of their
victory crowned labors and were soon
in bed, where they proved their labors
had been arduous by sleeping the sleep
of the just and the tired for twelve
solid hours. Groups of girls are now
discussing with bated breath behind
closed doors whether or not it was
wise to allow the boys to so far en-
croach upon a territory that is sup
posed to be entirely feminine. How
ever, the opinion of all the grownups
who have so far been consulted, is
unanimous that if more encourage
ment were given to the young people
to have their fun at home the street
loafing problem would DE solved.

Nonpartisan League Weakness.

The nonpartisan league learned
two times last week just how strong
they were in the Minnesota house Of
representatives; once when the house
passed the anti-redflag bill in the
face Of Townley's recent staunch sup
port of the red flag, and again when
the house voted by big majority the
passage of the Warner-H ompe bill pro-
viding for the nomination of state
officers in convention. Our hope
grows hopefuller- knew there was
something about the present house we
were going to like nightly when we
found it, and now we have!-Redwood

Schafer Securities Demanded.

Complaint has been filed in the Hen
nepin district court by Geo. H. Selover,
attorney for the Commonwealth Mort
gage company, against the Merchants
and Farmers bank OF Hastings for
the recovery of SGT 800 in mortgages
alleged to have been taken from the
Commonwealth Mortgage company by
William H. Schafer and turned over
to the Hastings bank without any con-
sideration having been received by the
mortgage company. This suit is the
forerunner of number of court ac-
tions which will be taken to straighten
out the tangle of financial transac-
tons made by Schafer.

TOWNSHIP RESULTS
Princeton Town Meeting Passes OFF
Quietly With Large Number of
Farmers in Attendance.
Election Returns From Various Points
In Counties of Mile Laos,
Sherburne and Isanti.

The Princeton township annual
meeting was held in the Byers' build
ing on Main street Tuesday afternoon
and goodly number of representa-
tive farmers were present to have
their say in the various matters which
came up for consideration. August
F. Meyer, moderator, called the meet
ing to order shortly after o'clock
and the following routine business was
considered and disposed of:
To the question put by the modera-
tor whether the township should elect
a poundmaster, which would necessi-
tate the building of a pound, unani-
NOUS sentiment prevailed in favor of
every farmer being his own pound
master, and a motion carried to that
effect.
It was decided to let the bulletin
boards remain where they are-one at
the Long Siding Cross roads, one on
the Boyne corner and the other on the
northeast Germany road.
The guide post report was read and
it was decided to install one new board
at Louis Rust's corner and another at
August F. Meyers to replace those
which have fallen into state Of de-
cay.
Clerk Henry Marpe read the annual
report of the township auditing board
and the financial statement for the
past year. Upon motion they were
adopted. The statement shows the
total receipts to be $4,436.53 and the
disbursements $3,702.74, leaving bal
ancezin the treasury Of $753.79. (This
statement will be published in the
Union at later date.)
In behalf Of the supervisors the
moderator suggested that $500 be
levied for town revenue and $4,000 for
road and bridge fund.
After some discussion the town
fund was, upon motion, reduced to
$500. There was also some discussion
as to the amount to be levied for road
and bridge fund, Clarence Young Of
Brickton contending that $4,000 was
not sufficient. Upon being put to a
vote the amount suggested by the sup
ervisors ($3,500) carried.
A motion to hold the next annual
township meeting in Princeton village
carried and the business meeting clos
ed.
| In the township election there were
but two contests one between John
Wilhelm and Fred Eggert for super
visor, for two years, and the other be-
tween Gail Rick and Otto Polsfuss for
constable. John Wilhelm won by one
vote end Carl Rick by 20.
John Wilhelm's vote was 81 and
Fred Eggert's SO, while Carl Rick re-
ceived IS and Otto Po1siuss 46. The
following had no opposition: Henry
Kunkle, supervisor for three years,
81 votes; Henry Marpe clerk, Sc;
David Wetter, treasurer, u; VIM.
Klingbeil, assessor, 80.
