The Return of the Roads

The turning back Of the railroads to
their nominal owners is the most strik-
ing symptom so far of the Transition
from war to peace. When the roads
were taken over in December, 1917, it
was the general belief that government
operation would be prolonged indefi-
nitely. Many people, deceived by the
experience of European countries,
looked for so much greater efficiency
and ecoAomy of operation under gov
eminent control that the demand for
government ownership would become
irresistible. The showing of the last
two years has shattered this illusion.

1t Has Passed

Into the best little city in the United
States some three months ago came a
man. He found the men and women
OF that city living together in mutual
confidence and respect, having lately
passed through period of common
and community endeavor in which each
had so shared common duties. so1nmon
fears and common sorrows that each
had learned a new respect for his
nelghbor, and cordiality had sprung
up between those who before had been
distant. The era Of good feeling was
the subject of comment and congratu-
lation.
Into such a city came a man and
for period he remained and pur-
sued his calling. He left that city
with new friendships shattered and
old friendships chilled, with neighbor
set against neighbor, with ready ear
pricked to hear the suspicious report,
with schism, quarreling, pickering,
OackDlClng, suspicion and hate ram
pant, and all manner Of uncharitable-
ness.
And the law of man was evoked. with
complaint, and answer, and injunction,
and retraction, and recall. According
to the ordinances and the statutes the
court meted out justice, and according
to the provisions Of the charter the
people rendered their Judgment.
And it has passed.
And now let US return to the better
law-the best law for citizen, neigh
Dor and friend, and whatsoever We
would that men should do unto you,
DO We also unto morris Trib-

young lady and a particular favorite,
among the younger set. The groona

This means that some day there is 60

where between Onamia and Milaca,

The court house policy of the county
from the very start has been conser-
vative and the money spent by the
county on it's county seat plant has
been very small indeed. Briefly, you
might say, that it was stripped right
down to the actual necessities and
sometimes even those cut from the
budget. However this showed good
foresight on the part of the hard
headed and thrifty pioneers who were

big, palatial, and expensive court
house. Would it not be good policy to
wait few short years before making
any county seat changes, until present
conditions have more equally adjusted
themselves and the whole situation be-
come established and crystalized?
Let's not take big bold jump out into
the dark without knowing where we
are going to land. Frankly, county
seat scrap is one Of the worst things
to breed discord, dissension, distrust
and ill-feeling among the citizens of

want to known that it is definitely de-
cided for all time instead of for few

Mile Laos County War History

The Milaca Times says that the
Princeton Union was supposed" to
publish the county war history-ap-
parently another of Cravens' pipe
dreams, or, maybe, he consulted the
ouiji board in the matter. The Union
has never been in any way connected
with the publication Of the war history
unless its act Of accommodating the
compiler, Mr.. Brandt, by receiving and
forwarding data to him, can be so
construed. Carlson Bros. Of Cam
bridge are printing the book and the
address Of E. R. Brandt, the publisher,
is 4o4 Kasota building, Minneapolis.
We presume he will furnish any IN
formation desired.

be paid out of fund of $4,000 raised
for that purpose, committee repre-
senting the st. Paul association and
the Minneapolis Civic and Commerce
association having raised the amount

this opportunity to become fully in

Moderator Meyer suggested in be-
half of the supervisors, that $500 be
levied for town revenue and $1,000
for road and bridge fund. He thought,
however, an increase should be made
in the amount suggested for the road
and bridge fund in order to keep the
roads and bridges in good repair. A
discussion followed and it was finally
decided to levy $500 for town revenue
and $4,000 for roads and bridges.
It was, upon motion, voted to hold
the next annual meeting in Princeton
as well as the general election.
A motion prevailed that the compen-
sation for township officers be fixed
according to law and the business
meeting closed.

HOW TO HUNT TROUBLE
IS TOLD IN HANDBOOK

The Remy service handbook gives
the following bit of good advice that
seems well worth passing along:
BE consistent in looking for trou-
BILE. II certain part of the equip
ment is out of order. determine just
what conditions could cause the trou-
BILE, then go over the apparatus, in
vestigating each condition until the
defective part is located. Suppose.
for example, that one headlight does
not burn. everything else being al
right. 1t would be highly incon-
sistent to look for this trouble in
the battery or the generator, as it
is very evident that it is confined to
the lamp circuit; the lamp may be
burned out or the wires to the lamp
may be, short circuited or open. II
these possibilities are gone into thor
oughly the trouble will be easily and
quickly cleared up. In all cases of
trouble first determine all possible
causes for such trouble, and then pro-
ceed to eliminate them one at a time
until the possibilities are narrowed
down to the exact defects. Think
first and try out in a logical way
afterward. Don't jumps at conclu-
sions first and think afterward."

OF fuel supplied to the working cylin-
ders. As such a part Is not used to-
day. IL might be well To explain the
operation OF the engine In the 1877

The engine is "A six-cylinder-two

Each OF the pumps supplies one of
the cylinders and the quantity of fIel
admitted to them Is controlled by
needle valves: the opening of wnicl.
is regulated by one of the hand
wheels on the center control column

hand wheel is mounted on a vertical
shaft on the top of the engine. This.
