While George Harvey, our ambassa-

been the subject of much adverse
criticism, the London Times, in a
special article reviewing his first
years work, pays tribute to his ef-
forts to smooth away existing mis-
understandings between England and
America and recalls his many public
speeches in which, says the article,

The newspaper boys throughout
the state who knew Fred E. Du Toit,
editor of the Chaska Valley Herald,
deeply regret his death. In point of
service he was the oldest editor in
Minnesota. He was a veteran of the
civil war, served in the state senate
many terms, was sheriff of Carver
county several years and a charter
member of the Minnesota Editorial
association. The writer knew "Uncle
Fred" for nearly quarter of CEN
fury and always found him man Of
his word, fair and square, and a
friend worth having. Fred Du Toit
was every inch an American. He was
democrat but not of the hidebound
variety, afttimes supporting republi-
can candidates for office when he con-
sidered them better men than those on
his party ticket. "Uncle Fred" pos
sessed big heart and a soul devoid
of all malice-always generous and
never holding a grudge against any
man.

1t will, of course, be remembered
that the Washington conference for
the limitation of ornaments drafted a
treaty to eliminate chemical warfare,
but Great Britain was the only nation
besides the United States which sub
scribed to this pact. Now Great
Britain and six other nations are
pushing forward poison gas develop
ments- experimenting, on the quick
est method Of committing murder in
battle. This means that these nations
expect to, sooner or later, be called
upon to engage in warfare, and they
are consequently preparing for emer-
gencies. But why should they pre-
pare to utilize the most diabolica]
method known to civilization? In
stead Of growing better along the
lines Of warfare the world seems tc
be getting worse. But so far as wars
are concerned there will always be
hostilities so long as this old eartl
revolves on it's axis.

Season Virtually Over.

The season for potatoes in the
Princeton market is fast drawing to a
close. No great quantity of stock re-
mains in the warehouses and large
quantities of new potatoes are coming
into the big cities of the north from

Shipments from this point have
been lively during the week but not
much stock is coming to the ware
houses. Buyers are unloading the
potatoes in their warehouses as rapid.

Foreign Advertising Representative
TIE AMERlCAN PRESS
uNFAvORABLE ADVERTISING.

The Union has received commune
cation from the Minnesota Highway
department stating that Mile Laos
county is receiving unfavorable ad-
vertising from the tourists who motor
through here. An official of the Min
nesota Automobile association report
cd that one tourist stated he was hneo
for speeding and had not driven faster
than rs miles per hour. he aooeu
there were suspicious Of graft.
It is reported that the MINNEAPOLIS
Automobile club has requested all ltS
members to avoid Princeton, If posi-
hle. and when compelled to drive
through here not to spend dollar IN
the village. Now the business lie o.
this town is not by any means oe-
nendent on these tourists, but we 40
not wish to appear inhospitable to
STRANGERS or to receive such unfavora-
h1e advertising. We have consldera-
BILE pride in our village and we want
strangers to have an opportunity 10
learn what a mighty fine town we
have here. While we will be only toe
n,eased to have the motorists who per,
sist in driving at reckless rate stay
awav from us, we do welcome the othe7
tourists and do not wish to nave thell
harassed by an unreasonable enforce
ment of the speed laws.
Tn the northern section OF the VII
1aqe. from the bridge to the park
there is an open street which is wei
GRADED and on which any man VINO i
capable of handling car should D.
able to drive at rate of twenty 0
TWENTY-FIVE miles per hour without en-
danpering anyone. It would seer
that it would be extremely foolish t
arrest a driver for travelling at rat
If more than Is miles per hour O
that street.
Deputy Sheriff Maggart states tina
he arrests no one on the Scenic high
way for speeding who is not travelln
more than 35 miles an hour and Sc
dom molests anyone on an open roa
who is not exceeding a rate OF
miles per hour. No motorist ought
complain against such law enforc
ment.
In regard to the suspicious of gra
which the tourist mentioned, it shou
be stated that both the deputy sher
who patrols the Scenic highway al
our village constable are entitled to
fee of two dollars for each arrest
makes. It might be advisable for t
village and county authorities to p
these officers sufficient salary so tn
thew could turn into the village
county treasures all fees collected
the violation of speed and traffic lay
This would tend to clear the attn
sphere considerably and eliminate
suspicious of graft.
