DEAR REVIEW.
Though our town has thus far es-
capped the dreaded diphtheria, we have
thus early one fever case to report.
Mr.. Edward Conger, of De Soto, Iowa,
is our guest, having been married on
Wednesday last, to our eldest daueh.
ter Flora; and is now down with
the fever. From many circumstan.
ces in life it has been thought by some
that this world was sadly out of Joint.
but in some respects it seems happily
adjusted. For instance: we have re-
ligions suited to almost every Shade of
thought and habit in life, and in med.
icine, as we have "many men of ma
ny minds,' so we have many doctors
OF many kinds. When one of us gets
sick our first business is to determine
to what class we belong and call q
physician accordingly.
Springfield is just eight miles away
and is supplied with three doctors one
Of whom, doctor Wellner, is said by
his friends, to be full-nedged in every
respect. The other two are, by him,
classed rs ''nobodies''. To-day my
son Wits sent to Springfield for a
doctor to attend Mr.. Conger. We
first called on Mr.. Wellner the ''full.
fedged'' but the doctor could not
come without the money in advance,
or security for it. ''It would do for
some OF those lounging about whose
time was worth nothing" he could
not afford it. My son next called on
Nobody Mccartney, and he could
"afford" to hire livery team and
come at once. He was called direct.
ly from here to attend my nephew
who is reported to have his eye put
out. So you see we can all have a
dOctor--paupcrs and all.
While Mr.. Conger is Il man of sober
and frugal habits, yet he has only liv
cd in De Soto about twenty-five years,
is only a r. r. agent there; has only
served the Chicago, Rock Island and
Pacific r. r. Co.. about twelve years
and his salary is now only 5000
per month, of course, he has not lai(
up anything, and though he is ;
''Free Mason it would never do fol
full Pledged" Wellner to attend sucl
a case, if he took such cases-wel
lie "caD't afford it," that's all!
hope, those two ''nobodies'' will ente
into an arrangement so that both O
them will not be out Of town at once
so that any one whose income doe
not exceed $40; per month need no
die unattended. What say you

that the rule Of the Democratic party
when in power was So1ther7, rule

ern principles controlled in the govern
ment. Southern ideas as to the mean.
ing of the Constitution prevailed. This
is no matter of history. There is no
chance for misstatement here should
any one be SO unprincipled as to desire
it. We have now stated two facts
which are worth considering seriously
by every voter, and in particular, by
those who are intending to vote for the
first time. To know the Democratic
party study history. Study the over
throw of that power, the cause that
lead to it, the causes that have kept it
out of power for twenty years. There
cannot possibly be a more profitable
political study. Great parties do not
60 down and remain SO long on their
back without there is some serious de-
feet III their principles. And it is well
to bear in mind in this connection, that
during this time, there have thousands
of voters come into the country who
could have replaced in power that par.
ty Ond would if it had not had some
serious defects in its principles. I be-

most intelligent and most independent
men, as thinkers, among our foreign.
ers are opposed to the Democratic par.
ty. The Democratic party existed dur
ing the war and strove hard to regain
its power; but how we'll it didn't sue
coed everybody knows of any intelli-
gence. Why was it that the people
would not remand it back to the con-
troll of the nation? It had able men; it
had some good principles. Shall we
say it was because it was not the party
of progress, Of humanity, of civiliza-
ton? 1t would be but the truth which
we are prepared to establish. There
is no more reason now to give the rule
of the nation into the hands of that
party than there was in 1854 when Gen.
Mcclellan was it's nominee.
8. But what was the fruit of Demo-
cratic rule for fifteen years? Lot every.
voter remember that the fruit was
ciuiL acar. It was its natural result.
The credit of the country was below
par. Its debt was increased 1913, 49,
O32. IS; and there was but So, lis, 1880
in the Treasury. Government bonds
were worth but ninety cents on the
dollar. Now it will be denied that the
fruit of Democratic rule was as we
state it; we are prepared to hear the
denial and to refute it. We do not
propose to state things for facts that
are simply the vagaries of the mind.
It is we'll enough to reflect on the three
points made in this article. General
Hancock has nothing to do with them;
but they have with my vote for him.

After a week Of rainy weather
little sunshine is visiting us. Several
Of the boys are in the hospital down
with fever.
The signal corps is now full, the
last one Of the 500 was admitted this
week. There will however always be
some vacancies on account of discharg-
es. Last Saturday 2 men we're killed
at the U. S. Arsenal at Washington
on account of an accidental discharge
Of Gatling gun. It seems some
men we're practicing the day before
and left one ball in the gun without
discharging it. On Saturday, when
the men detailed to clean the gun
were at work, the unexpended round
| went off and tore away the right breast
Of one and the left Of the other, killing
them instantly. Capt. White, the
keeper of the military stores at the
Arsenal narrowly escaped being
struck by the ball.
The work on Washington's monu.
ment is slowly progressing. 1t is to
be the highest edifice in the world
when completed.
Since the death of General Meyer,
Adjutant Gen. r. G. Drum has been
acting Chief Signal Officer. He has
made some small changes regarding
the drill. So far our class practicec
signalling on the parade ground, next
week we will try long range for the
4 first time. The first 5 days we have
to communicate at q distance Of fvt

use our caps at that distance. Their

LOCAL POLITICS.

: Z i -,gS - == ~ :. Z 3 -
With the exception of State Senator,
the Republicans of this county now
have all their candidates in the field,
and with the nominations to lie made
next Saturday by the Democrats the
campaign will be fairly inangurated.
The ten delegates from this county to
the Senatorial convention are unit
for S. D. Peterson and they will use
all honorable means to secure his nomi.
nation, and we have good reasons for
saying that we believe their efforts
will not be fruitless.
The Republican candidate for Rep
resentatiye, Mr.. John G.. Zieske, Of
Sleepy Eye, is well and favorably
known to many of the electors of the
county. He is thorough-going bust
ness man and if elected will make an
active and useful member. He is not
a sectional nor selfish man and he will
represent each portion of the county
honestly and without partiality. Let
him receive the full party vote and his
election is assured.
For County Auditor, Register Of
Deeds, County Attorney, County Sur.
veyor and Coroner the Republican no.
minees are the present incumbents,
and each and everyone has discharged
the duties of his Office to the entire
satisfaction of all concerned, and their
election is foregone conclusion.
The candidate for Sheriff, Mr.. K. H.
Helling, is not unknown in Brown Co.
politics. He has served the party and
county we'll and faithfully in both
branches of the legislature, and pos
sesses the ability and grit to make an
excellent sheriff. He is the only Scan
dinavian on the ticket and should re-
ceive the vote of every Republican in
the county.
Mr.. Ernst Brandt, the candidate for
Judge of Probate, is one of the first
settlers of Brown county and for many
years was Il resident of the town of
Sigel, but of late years he has resided
in this city during which time he has
been, and is now, upon the staff of the
New Ulm Post. He is thoroughly cog
infant of the duties OF the
office and if elected will make a
competent official. He being the only
one on the ticket representing the
newspaper fraternity, we of course
hope to see him elected.
The candidates for county commits
sioncrs are worthy men in both instan'
ces. Both are old residents of the
county and possess the esteem of
their neighbors, and if elected they
will make useful and worthy members
of the board.
The best Of feeling prevailed in the
convention, and the nominations with
out any exception seem to give good
satisfaction. We hope that all Sec
tionality will be kept out Of the cam
paign so conspicuously inaugurated by
the Republicans, and that each and
every candidate on the ticket will be
accorded the full party vote.

| Hancock nnd Party.

Gen. Hancock's pen may show him
to be mightier with it in the defense
of Constitutional liberty than he is
with the sword; be that as it may, we
do know from the record he has made
that he has not the qualifications, as 4
civilian and statesman, possessed by his
rival Mr.. Garfield. He has neither the
education nor experience in administ-
ering civil affairs as his opponent. His
experience in executing law has been
confined to military law. Let us admit,
however, for the sake of the argument,
that, whether Gen. Hancock is rs we'll
qualified for the presidential Office as
Mr.. Garfield or not, he is sufficiently
fitted for the position; and it does not
follow that any man should vote for
him in preference to Mr.. Garfield, be-
cause he cannot be considered indepen.
dent of his party. No presidential can
didate can be considered independent
of his party and none ever is. Some
men may rise above his party and
may lead it; but parties nominate their
leaders fully expecting them to be 10y
al to their constituency. Gen. Han
cock was thus nominated, and so was
Mr.. Garfield. We cannot consider
either discovered from their party.
Now let us see about the party claim.
In view of his party should we vote
for Gen. Hancock in preference to Mr..
Garfield! What claim has the Demo.
cratic party upon the votes of the PEG.
pie the Republican party has not? Why
should that party be returned to pow.
er? In this discussion the first thing tc
remember is that the Democratic party
is not al, at1atried party. It has had
power in the nation. It governed the
country for some fifteen years. AS {
governing power in the land it made ;
record. That record has passed init
history, it is history. It can be studi
ed and known of all men. To put tha
party in power is not to experiment
with a new factor, it is not a leap il
the dark. The party claims to be VIVA
it always has been; and in the presen
canvass its speakers are urging tn
people to maintain the principles Q
their fathers. If our feet are guides
by the lamp Of experience we know
very well in what constitutional pat
they will walk if We follow the Demo
cratic leaders. The Democratic part
