Good cure for sore eyes before Christman is the handsome decorated' dishes at the Brick Store, also beautiful hanging and vase lamps at N. E. Jes mers. George Sherwood is in trouble. He is accused of stealiug a fur coat from an Anoka merchant and of mortgaging property that did not belong to him. His examination will take place before Justice Dickey to-morrow. There is an urgent need for more side walks and cross-walks in this village. The only decent sidewalk in the vil lage is that on the north side of First street between Main street and the depot. Query: Have the farmers who sold their potatoes to the Dalbo Warehouse Co. received their pay for the same, and if so what was the price paid per bushel? The UNION simply asks for information. Joseph C. Borden returned from Florida, last Friday. He is not in love with that country. Joseph says he met scores of people in the south who were red hot Blaine men. A Republican club has been organ ized in Farmington and it starts out with a membership of eighty. Dr. J. P. Caldwell, formerly of Princeton, is president of the club. We understand that a number of the young people of the village are endeav oring to organize an amusement bureau here and secure the services of Mr. and Mrs. E. B. Kelly as instructors. Landlord Barrett, of Milaca, was in town last Saturday. Mr. Barrett re ports "blind pigs" as still flourishing in that no-license village, and Mr. Bar rett is a pretty reliable sort of a man. Those having left clocks, watches or jewelry with me for repairs will please call for them at once, I leave here Sat urday and will be back again in Febru ary, 1892. Yours Truly, F. C. STAMM. Frans A. Franzen and Annie John son, of Borgholm, vowed to love, cher ish and protect each other for an indefinite period, in Clerk of Court Brigg's office last Saturday. Judge Dickey acted as master of ceremonies. People who attended the entertain ment at Jesmer's Hall on Thursday and Friday evenings had their money's worth of fun. The comedy of "Mixed Pickles" on Friday evening was es pecially relished. Mr. and Mrs. E. B. Kelly have made a hit in Princeton. Mr. Hiram Whittier, of Greenbush, and Mrs. Mary A. Wood, of Princeton, were united in marriage at the resi dence of the bride by Rev. J. S. Bouck, Tuesday afternoon. The frisky young couple have the UNION'S benediction, and may the tribe of Whittier increase. Notice of village election appears in another column. The election will be held at the village hall between the hours of one and four o'clock on the af ternoon of Tuesday, January 5th. The question of license or no license will be voted upon, and village officers will be elected. Wm. Secombe, formerly manager of the Mille Lacs Lumber Co., has been elected secretary of the St. Paul Com mercial club at a salary of $1,500 per year. Mr. Secombe is a wide-awake young man and he will perform the duties of the position in a prompt and business-like manner. The year is drawing to a close and all those indebted to the UNION on subscription or otherwise will receive a reminder in the shape of a statement of account between now and the first of January. We expect prompt responses. Right here we wish to remark that, all those who wish to avail themselves of our club rates$1.50 in advancemust renew their subscriptions before Janu ary 1st. Bob and Benjamin Briggs, of Isle Harbor, tarried in town between trains Monday afternoon. Bob had just re turned from Taylor's Falls where he had been to prove up on his claim which is one of the most valuable in the Mille Lacs reservation, so-called. By the way, Bob will leave for Montana in a few days, and he expects to spend next summer at Mille Lacs with a part ner to share his joys and sorrows. Frank Daigle proved up on his claim before Clerk Briggs, Monday, and Clarence A. Palmer and Wm. Finley proved up Tuesday. Their witnesses were Arthur Snow, George Lock and Fiank L. Daigle. The boys visited the UNION office, and four new names were placed on the cash-in-advance list of subscribers. Thanks, boys for your substantial appreciation of the UNION. May your hard-earned claims prove a veritable bonanza to each of you. License or no-license is the question of the hour. The radical temperance element in our midst are disposed to be aggressive, while those who favor license are "sawing wood" and talking low. If the majority of the voters of the village vote to do away with sa loons and establish a system of "blind pigs," well and good. There are two sides to this question of licensing sa loons. The UNION believes that an evil that cannot be suppressed should be regulated by a rigid enforcement of existing laws. The ladies of the Dorcas society will hold their annual bazaar, Thursday and Friday evenings, Dec. 17th and 18th, at G. A. R. hall. There will be for sale a large and varied assortment of Christmas goods, both useful and ornamental, to suit the taste of all. The display will be large and attract ive, and all to be sold at reasonable prices. Supper will be served from 6 to 9 o'clock each evening.
