THE INDUCEMENTS OF
FEREDlO NEW COM.
Frs TOBE FULLY
SHOWN UP.
Enthusiastic Meeting in
Tufnef fall.
Committees appointed and a,
Edition Of 5000 German
Boom Pamphlets order
ed; Also a Boom
Edition in
English.

At last the people of New Ulm have
awoke to realization of the necessity
of showing up the inducements New
Ulm and Brown county offers to new
corners. Until the present time, ey-
erybody seems to have been satisfied
with letting s'well enough alone,'' and
but little has been done on the part
of our people to attract men of
means to our city and county. For
about week past a number of our
leading business men have quietly
agitated the advisability of issuing
and sending broadcast through the
eastern States, German and English
editions of boom pamphlets, showing
up the many advantages our city and
county possesses over many other
western localities. The project met
with much favor, and the agitation
eliminated in an enthusiastic public
meeting in Turner Hall, last Sunday
afternoon.
Col. Pfender opened the meeting,
briefly stating the objects sought to
be attained. Mr.. L. Bogen was then
called to the chair, and Capt. Eckstein
was elected secretary.
The meeting was unanimous in the
opinion that the time had arrived for
New Ulm to act, and endeavor to in
duce portion of the large number of
people seeking homes in the west to
locate in our midst. Col. Pfander adj
vocated issuing 5000 German pamph-
let's, the cost of which he estimated at
$3.50, including a bird 's-eye view of
New Ulm for frontispiece. Mr..
PAIL pointed to last springs unpre.
cedented rush to Dakota, the result
of system Of advertising inaugurated
by the Dakota papers. Mank to, also,
owed her present prosperity to judicious
advertising of her resources. Mr.. Ru-
dolph, Rev. Berghold and others spoke
in the same vein. Mr.. Carl Schmidt
expressed the opinion that while an
effort was being made to induce Germ.
ans to locate in New Ulm and vicini-
ty, the English speaking population
should not be ignored. This senti.
ment was shared by all present, and
boom editions viii! be issued both in
the English and German languages.
The following committee was elect
ed to carry out the sentiments of
the meeting: Col. Pfander, f. G..
Koch. Robt. p. A. Nix, Werner
Bosch, E. G. PAIL, Rev. A. Berghold,
Jos. Bobleter, L. Bogen, FIR. Boock
and L. Runk.
The committee subsequently met
and appointed a soliciting committee
as follows: Rev. A. Berghold, Werner
Bosch and Fir. Boock.
The soliciting committee have al
ready collected 1906. This amount
they are quite positive can be increas-
ed to $500. The full committee will
be divided into subcommittee and
the work pushed to completion with
all haste possible.

ALBIN CORRESPONDENCE.

We are apt to find fault with our
paper for being dry and void of news
without, perhaps once, making an ef.
fort to supply our local Editor with
what little laughable matter there
may DO in our own neighborhood-
Probably the weather is somewhat
alike all over the Country. Yet we
often find that considerable more snow
or rain has fallen in one part than in
another part, less than ton miles dis.
tant, and while it has been quite calm
here, the wind has been blowing
things kiting in another neighbour.
hood. In this town but little snow
had fallen, this winter, until the Sd
inst. Then, and for or days after,
it kept a falling. But what is very
unusual about it is, that it laid evenly,
or nearly so, all oyer the ground, in a
most beautiful coverlet composed of
millions of stars Of the most fancyful
construction. Reader, did you ever
examine the mechanism of nowaake?
Everybody expected regular old
fashioned blizzard; but no! The wind
shifted around from one point to an
other, all around the compass, without
hardly disturbing our very light snow.
Several volunteer committees have
been investigating this irregula: be-
havior of ..The Prince of the Domin.

mlttee have concluded, by reason Of
the number Of prohibition votes re.
ported by our state canyassers, and
some other reasons, that the cause Of

this: If such preaching will produce
such quiet winter, the people in the
western part of this county would do
we'll to chip in and petition our Demo
cratic friends to send some of their
pump handles around to charm the old
fellows every fall.

The entertainment given in Union
Hall last Sunday Evening for the ben
eft of the st. Alexander's hospital
was a drawing card. The hall was
densely packed, many of those pres
ent being glad to get standing room.
The entertainment was one of the best
given in this city for many months.
The children acted their parts beauti-
fully; everyone had mastered it's part,
and not the slightest jar was percept-
ible from the commencement to the
end. The singing by the children was
really fine and was heartily applauded
by everyone present. On this occa-
casion the "Musen Sehne'' appeared
before New Ulm audience for the
first time. They possess some fine
and we'll trained voices and when bet
ter known cannot help but bee )me ia.
vorites with the music loving part of
our community. The Ernst Orchestra
rendered some choice and very diff.
cult selections with proficiency quite
remarkable. At the conclusion of
the entertainment Rev. A. Berghold
stepped upon the stage and made a
short address, first in English and
then in German. He thanked the Sis.
tiers for their interchangeable efforts to
prepare the children for the enter
tainment; the Ernst Orchestra for
their gratuitous services. and the pub.
lie for their presence and sympathy
shown for a worthy institution.

The MankatO Reuiew is opposed to
Congressman Wakefeld's bill fixing
the head Of navigation on the Mime
sofa river at New Ulm 1t says:
'sIn olden times steamboats, found
no greater difficulty in ascending to
Redwood Falls and even points beyond,
than they did between Mankato and
New Ulm. We believe that the river
as a navigable stream should be MAIN
tanned. We may not use it now, but
there is no certainty that it never will
be used. The fact that it can be used
exercises most wholesome influence
over the railroads, and so long as it re-
mains navigable stream that influ.
ence will continue
We have already sounded the senti-
ments of our people in regard to this
matter, and the following from last
weeks Redwood Guzette shows how
the people at Redwood Falls feel
about it:

fee, rnemorializing Congress to pass

was more suitable head of river

Redwood Falls is great deal more in.
