Local politics are quiet. There is hardly a ripple of excitement. The candidates are all off on a still hunt. L. S. Briggs will have no opposition for clerk of court as Lester Kempton, the nominee of the democratic party, will refuse to be a candidate. R. P. Brower and C. S.

Potatoes are coming in lively and several loads were sold for 60 cents a bushel yesterday. The highest market prices are being paid for pota toes in Princeton. Men who will stand around an open grave wearing their hats and puffing cigars while a funeral service is being read are certainly wanting in good sense and decency. On Monday afternoon Hon. Dan W. Lawler, H. H. Hawkins and Major Baldwin addressed a crowd of about 100 voters from the counties of Mille Lacs, Sherburne and Isanti at Jesmer's hall. Hawkins and Baldwin did not take well, but Lawler made a good im pression. E. E. Whitney is down from For eston to spend a day or two.

The convention for the Zimmerman Sunday School district was held in the Blue Hill church on October 21. All things considered the attendance was good, and we hope that the session will prove helpful to the workers. Four of the six Sunday schools were represent ed. A funeral in the community kept the members of one of the other Sun day schools away and also prevented Rev. Larson from being present to take part in our program, which was a very interesting one. Several of the county offiicers were in attendance as well as the officers of the Sunday school. At the election of officers Mrs. Mickleson was chosen president, Mrs. Van Kleek vice-president and Miss Lovell secretary-treasurer. Rev. Geer led the devotional ser vices and there were several addresses and musical numbers, among them a solo by Mrs. Geer and a selection by the choir f the Blue Hill church. Secretary. Our Boys Are Acquiring French. Choosing the natal day of Lafayette, President Pomcare of France reviewed the American troops under command of Gen. Pershing at their training camp. As the latter explained, the day was more memorable, as it also marked the anniversary of the begin ning of the battle of the Marne, one of the historic battles in the worldis history. President Poincare's address to the boys in khaki was brief, but felicitous. He quoted President Wilson's state ment that the nations are fighting for the same ends, and the interests of the United States are at stake every where. The allied armies, he said, are at grips with the enemy, whether it be in Flanders, before Verdun, or on the Isonzo. He concluded with the shout: "Long live President Wilson long live the United States." President Poincare spoke in French, which somewhat puzzled our boys, but they got the drift of his sentiments in true American fashion. "What did he say?" asked one of them. "I don't know exectly," was the reply, "but I think he said to give 'em hell.'" "That's the stuff!" was the hearty re sponse, and the explanation brought a rousing cheer for Poincare as it passed down the line.San Franciscan. Unclaimed Letters.

It is intimated in reports from Rome that there is a strong probability that Archbishop Ireland may be made a cardinal in the near future. The ven erable archbishop is one of the able men of the Roman Catholic church, distinguished as a prelate and honored and esteemed as a splendid American citizen. His thousands of friends and admirers throughout the northwest would rejoice at his elevation to the cardinalate as a fitting recognition of his eminent services as a churchman.
