TO ELECT OFFICERS.
Meeting of Parent Teacher Associa'
ton to be Held Next Tuesday

tion to be Held Next Tuesday
in High School.
On Tuesday, September 19, meet
ing will be held in the high school
assembly room to reorganize the
Parent Teacher association and to
elect new officers for the ensuing
year.
Although the association was or
ganized late last fall, it met with a
ready response from the patrons of
the school and good beginning was
made. 1t is expected there will be
greatly increased interest this year
as the people begin to realize how
valuable such an organization may be
in promoting the welfare of the school.
There are now a large number of
Parent Teacher associations in Min
nesota and they are further organized
in a state association that meets regu-
larly every year at the same time as
does the Minnesota educational asso-
citation. It will be very much to the
interest of the Princeton people to
have a representative at this state
meeting each year. -
It is planned to develop the social
side of the association this year. With
our splendid school facilities the peo-
pie have the opportunity to meet to-
gether frequently and thus promote a
better community spirit.

Inspector Tests Scales.

G. H. Staples, state inspector for
the department of weights and meas
ures, was in Princeton Tuesday test
ing the numerous scales in the village.
Mr.. Staples reports that the communi-
ty. scale was absolutely accurate but
that some of the smaller, private
scales had to be condemned.
The inspector said his department
had not received one word of COM
plant from this vicinity in regard to
short weights since the community
scale had been installed. He stated
the complaints from here previous to
that time had been quite numerous.
Mr.. Staples reports there are several
hundred community scales in this state
and all of them are giving excellent
satisfaction. He also said the usual
charge for weighing on such a scale
was Is cents per load.

POTATO CROP

It is Estimated 1922 Potato Crop is
One of Largest Ever Pro-
duced in Country.
Although the local potato crop is
rather light, it is predicted there will
be big yield in the United States.
According to the September report of
the bureau of markets the total pro-
duction in the United States is esti-
mated to be 43S,000,000 bushels as
compared to the December, 1921 esti-
mate of 347,000,000 bushels. The
estimate for Minnesota is an acreage
Of 04,000 and total production of
SO, ,105, 900 bushels.
According to many estimates the
yield in this vicinity will not be more
than so bushels to the acre. The later
varieties give promise of better yield
than the earlier ones. OF the potatoes
that are now being marketed the
Ohios are of the best quality.
The buyers report the outside de-
mand for Princeton potatoes is good
but they are not coming in rapidly.
Approximately Is cars were shipped
last week.

- = RECORD ATTENDANCE
Over $50 Pupils Have Now Enrolled
in the Princeton School;
Classes Crowded.

The Princeton school opened Tues
day, September 5. During the follow
ing week $50 pupils enrolled and the
number increases each day. This is
the largest attendance ever recorded
in the history of the school. The
classes are now crowded to the limit,
especially those in the domestic
science and history departments.
The school authorities state there
are many children yet to be entered.
The parents are requested to eliminate
all possible delay because a late start
seriously handicaps a pupil. The
parents are also asked to encourage
regular attendance. The superinten-
dent states that pupil who is absent
one day a week looses about half the
value of his work and if he is to be
absent more than that, he might just
as we'll not be in school at all.
The state law provides that a boy
who is over IA years Of age and living
on a farm may remain out of school
until November / if his parents ac-
tually need his help with the work.
A child residing in a village must at
tend school until he is 16 years of
age. The cooperation of the public
is asked in enforcing these school
laws. ~eas-.sa -zse---~-
There are still a few pupils who de-
sire an opportunity to work for their

STRIKE ENDS
ON 50 ROADS.
Three Railroads in Northwest Accept
Agreement; 10000 Men Are
Involved.
TAKES EFFECT AT ONC]
Officials Estimate approximately g.
600 Men Will Return to Work
in Twin Cities.

An agreement to end the shopmen's
strike on virtually one-fourth of the
country's 202 class one railways was
voted yesterday by the shop crafts
general conference committee of 80.
The list of roads actually involved
in the negotiations was not made pub
lie when the agreement was given out
and so far as known late tonight, none
of them had yet signed the peace pact.
It was said that the strike would be
continued on those roads which do not
sign up, although the hope was
strongly expressed that they too might
join in the same settlement later.
According to reports received
this morning 10000 striking shopmen
wall return to work Immediately on
three northwest railroads, the Chica-
60, Milwaukee & st. Paul, the Chicago
Great Western and the Chicago, St.
Paul, Minneapolis & Omaha.
All other roads entering the twin
cities will ignore the settlement and
continue work with the present forces
in their shops. These roads will well
come all striking employees who wish
to return but they will be given places
as new men.
Under the terms of the agreement
approved by the three railroads and
the members of the policy committee
of the federated shops crafts in Chi
cago the returning strikers will be
given seniority rights subordinate to
the men who have been employed since
the nationwide walkout was called on
July 1. The men will be re-employed
in the order of the seniority they held
before the strike, and all will be given
places within 80 days.
Union officials estimated last night
that approximately 5000 men will be
affected by the settlement in the twin
cities, in the following proportion:
Milwaukee, 1900 men; Omaha, 1000
men, and Great Western, 200.

First Football Game.

The first game Of the 1922 football
schedule in which Princeton high
school participates will be played on
the local grounds tomorrow afternoon
commencing at o'clock.
The local eleven will clash with the
Elk River high school and a real bat
tie is sure to ensue.
Coach Willys, who is training the
Princeton team, is fortunate this
year in having an especially good
line up. He will have greater weight
and speed to work with than in former
years and it seems that Princeton
should make a favorable showing dur
ing the present football season.
Keen rivalary has always existed
between the visitors and the locals so
those who attend will be sure to wit
ness hard fought contest.

Charles ]. Moos States Posters Re-
ferred to by Mrs. Olesen
Were Not Printed.

Mrs. Anna ID. Olesen, in her key
note speech at Crookston last Satur-
day evening, made the following state
ment: W
We all remember the large bill
boards erected six years ago in the
interest of my opponent. They ap-
peared on many crossroads in our
great state. They were large and
handsome. I am told that many
of them cost $50 apiece. These signs
carried the sentence: "Vote for
Frank 3. Kellogg, the Trust Buster y
Passersby, in cars or on foot, the chill
the story about the "trust buster
The distinguished attorney was well
known to a group Of prominent men,
but he was not known to the voters.
So his managers proceeded to sell their
candidate to the people of Minnesota
in the same way as they would sell
Heinz pickles. 81 varieties, or Ivory
soap, 80 44-100 per cent pure. They
were shrewd people. They know the
value of a single ideN In advertising
and their great idea was to coin a
phrase that would catch and that was
kellogg, the Trust Buster."- Most of
us who read the ad believed it, for we
sent him to the senate.
The word "trust buster" itself was
an appeal to prejudice. This was an
attempt Of arraying class against
class. They were trying to array the
hard-working, struggling, honest ma
jority against the rich. My friends,
this should not be. The great idea in
our government is the idea Of. Coop
Grafton and there should be no appeal
made to the passions Of prejudice. I
will be perfectly honest with you. I
have never busted trust, but
promise to work faithfully for the
interest Of all alike, rich and poor, but
you know that most of us belong to
the common people. This campaign
of six years ago was contrary to pub
lie policy.
Charles J. Moos, who is now post
master Of st. Paul and who prepared
all the publicity for Senator Frank B..
Kellogg's campaign six years ago,
states that the senator was never re-
ferred to on any of the billboards or
in any other advertising matter sent
out by him as the "trust buster" Mr..
Moos has the original copy of the pos
ter and a photograph of one of the
billboards. The slogan employed, as
most of the people will remember,
was, "A Big Man for Big Job. "Mr.
Moos also states that just one hum
dred of the big posters were printed
and they cost SIS apiece.
Mrs. Olesen in her remarks at Ed
ward Indrehus' farm on Tuesday again
referred to the t'trust buster posters"
and turning to her audience asked
those who had seen the posters to
raise their hands. Only about six or
eight men came to the rescue of the
lady and at least two of these testi-
fiers were from Minneapolis.
According to the most authentic evi-
dence that can be gained on the point,
the personal statement of the man
who directed the making and placing
of the large advertisements referred
to, Charles Moos of St. Paul, it ap-
pears that Mrs. Olesen and her six
or eight witnesses remember seeing
that which never was.

COWARD IS AGAIN BUSY.
Four Dogs Are Poisoned in -Four
Blocks on One Street of the
Villa 90. C1uo1 Cn,,nh%

-Four Dogs Are Poisoned in Four
Blocks on One Street of the
Village; Clues Sought.
The dog poisoner has again re-
sumed his activities here in the vii
lage. Four dogs last week were
poisoned in four blocks on one street.
The dogs evidently picked up the pois-
on Saturday afternoon as they died on
the evening of that day.
The individual who scatters poison
broadcast with the intent of killing
his neighbor's dogs is despicable
coward. A man with any sense of
honor, who was being seriously an
noyed by dog would enter COM
plant with the master or the village
authorities. If he could not obtain
redress from either source, he might
be compelled to take justice in his
own hands. But in such case real
man would openly kill the dog in
way that would entail the minimum
amount of suffering; he would shoot
it in broad daylight. It is only the
contemplate coward who will sneak
along surreptitiously distributing
poison broadcast for any dog that may
pass by.
No complaint had ever been made
to the owners of the four dogs poi
soned last Saturday, and it was not
know that they had ever molested
anyone in the neighborhood.
Anyone having information in re-
gard to the poisoner should present
the evidence to the president of the
village council, A. B. Gramer.
The statutes of Minnesota state:
Any person who unjustifable ad-
ministers any poisonous, or noxious
drug or substance to any animal, or
procures or permits the same to be
done, or unjustifably exposes any
such drug or substance with the intent
that the same shall be taken by any
animal whether such animal be the
property Of himself or another is
punishable by Imprisonment in the
state prison not exceeding two years
or in q county Jail not exceeding six
months or by fine not exceeding five
hundred dollars, or by both such fine
and Imprisonment.
