DELEGATES TO BE ELECTED.
Delegates to Republican County Con
vention to be Chosen on
Next Tuesday.

Delegates to Republican County Con-
vention to be Chosen on
Next Tuesday.
Next Tuesday at the village and
town elections the delegates to the re-
publican county convention are to be
chosen.
AS was stated in the issue of this
paper Of January 26, these delegates
are apportioned on basis Of the
votes cast for the republican candidate
for governor at the last election, one
delegate for every SO votes. This ap-
portionment gives Princeton village IA
delegates, Princeton town 4, Green
bush 4, Bogus Brook 2, etc.
The republican party leaders realize
that the women in the state played an
important part in the election in 1920
and they desire to give them the rec
ignition they deserve in the coming
campaign. Therefore the republican
state central committee requested the
county chairmen to arrange to appor-
ton the delegates to the county con-
vention about equally among the men
and the women. Our Gown county
chairman, Fred Newton,t believed this
to be the fair and correct policy and
has advised the precinct chairmen that
he would be pleased to see them carry
out that plan. In pl.tfncts swhcrt
there is more than one delegate to BIZ
elected, it is hoped that the wome1
will be given equal recognition
with the men. If this is done i
is up to the women to show their ap
probation of the fact that the mel
consider them as equals in tn
political game and get out to vote.
Every woman in Princeton shoul'
take great pride in the fact that, at tn
general election in this village in No
vember, 1920, the women cast 1888 O
the 81 votes recorded. The wome1
throughout the whole country made ;
splendid showing in that election an
just as good things are expected O
them this year.
In the precincts where no candidate
filed as delegates to the county con
vention the voters should write il
the names of those whom they wish t
represent them at that gathering.
Let US remember we have a repre-
sentative form of government in thi
country and avail ourselves of it
privileges.

Among Thomas effects were found
books on lock construction, literature
on how to cheat at cards, and other

Tells Why Snow Could Not be Re.

Help on Improvements. +

Help on improvements. r
Commissioner Babcock, in a state
ment, explains why snow removal
from Minnesota highways is being
left to local communities. Here is
what he says: .
"The highway department is seri-
ously concerned with the problem of
keeping the trunk routes open in win
ter and would have moved weeks ago
had any practicable, feasible plan been
found. But because of the heavy ex-
pense, the stronger claims for other
kinds of highway work, the limits on
funds briefly, in consideration of the
greatest good for the great majority,
the state cannot justify snow re-
moval campaign at this early stage Of
highway development. Maintenance
funds would be so reduced that the
trunk routes would be half kept next
summer when hundreds of tourists
and ten times as many Minnesota peo-
pie will use them.
"Interested communities must con-
tinue to handle the work as in past
years. They may expect big help
from the highway transportation
companies. The state department will
cooperate by permitting the use of
suitable equipment in the districts and
in other ways. It already is adopt
ing snow-drift prevention features in
new construction plans. 1t should be
remembered that rural districts are
supplied better winter highway facili-
ties now than ever before, and also
that the bulk Of trunk highway funds
come from motor vehicle owners who
use the trunk routes ten times more
lin, summer than in winter. We are
trying to give maximum service over q
maximum period of every year but
|present conditions will not warrant big
|snoW removal operations"
Mr.. Babcock has posted an offer tx
furnish state trunk tractor fleets al

diary roads under the county-town CO
Operative plan. From 10 to 40 cents
Of each road dollar can be saved by
lusing heavy equipment on much Of tn
work, the commissioner says, ant
counties and towns can take advan
tage Of the saving without investing
large sums.

Wood states that he finds it necessary

Many of Mr.. Woods friends are much
surprised hear he is not again a
candidate, because the president of the
council, as rule, holds that office for
two successive terms.

COUNTY BOARD IN
REGULAR SESSION
Minnesota Loan & Trust Company
Buys County Refunding Bonds
in Sum Of $125, 100000.
THAT DISTRICT Is MIDDLE
Road and Bridge Bonds Aggregating
$4,000 Are Sold to Capital
Trust & Savings Bank. ;.

The regular monthly meeting Of the
board of county commissioners was
held in the basement Of the Milaca
school on Tuesday, and following is
synopsis Of the proceedings:
County refunding bonds in the sum
of $125, 900 were sold to the Minnesota
Loan & Trust company at 5A per cent
and a premium of $3.50. These bonds
were issued and sold for the purpose
of taking up and redeeming outstand-
ing county warrants and their sale
will be saving for the county, asst is
paying per cent interest on the pres
ent outstanding warrants. 49,.
Most of the afternoon was taken up
| on hearing Of the school petition Of
R. H. Karges ct al, asking to have
their lands set off from independent
school district No. IL and attached to
other adjoining districts. A large
number of people interested in the pc
tition appeared before the board and it
was necessary to adjourn to the big
court room to handle the crowd. o. C.
Myron of Milaca appeared as attorney
for the school district, Directing to the
allowance Of the petition on the
grounds that it would practically mean
the dissolution of their consolidated
district if this territory was cut off.
F. w. McAllister of St. Paul appeared
las attorney for the petitioners. The
main argument of the petitioners was
that the present school tax rate which
they are paying is practically confisca-
tory. The principal argument of the
school district was that the exception
ally high tax for the year 1921 was
caused by an excessive valuation of
the petitioners lands in the township
of Milaca After full and fair hear
ing the petition was rejected by the
board, with the understanding that the
school board of district 13 would do
everything within it's power to reduce
the tax rate for the future and that
applications for abatement could be
made out and filed with thu. county
board to correct the excessive taxes
for the year 1921.
Road and bridge bonds aggrcgating
|$2,700 were sold to the Capital Trust
& Savings Bank of st. Paul. This
sale is made in connection with the
former sale of $4,000 bonds at the
, February meeting.
The sale of the Veal property in the
village Of Princeton to Sam Harrington
for $500 was confirmed by the board.
One bid was received for overseer of
{ the county home. This was the bid of
, the present overseer, L. R. Pierson.
, The matter was laid over until the
: next meeting.
> Numerous applications for tax cor
= rections and attachments were taken up
! by the board and acted on.
The usual grist of bills was allowed
and the session adjourned.

creasing demand for receiving sets. !
In spite of an enormously increas-
ed manufacturing capacity makers of
radio equipment are still behind on
their domestic orders, and this has
naturally limited their interest in ex-
port trade.
Nevertheless the total volume of
wireless equipment shipped abroad
during the first five months of this
year is more than so per cent of the
total for the calendar year of 1921,
and the inquiries from abroad have
increased considerably AS productive
capacity here catches up with in
creased demand, a strong export trade
may be expected.
'As an interesting feature of the
sales abroad, there has for several
months been a considerable call for
receiving sets from our neighbors on
the north and south--Canada, Mexico,
and Central America, where radio
fans, found that tube sets would per-
nit them to readily listen on on some
of the important American roadcast-
ing services"
