The many New Ulm friends of Lieut..
Bishop of Chicago will be panied tc
learn of the death of his daughter,
Laura, which occurred last Thursday.
Miss Laura spent nearly the entire
summer in our city in the hope of re.
gaining her health, and during Der stay
here she gained many true and loving
friends who supplied her every want; blu,
that fatal disease, consumption, had
made such an inroad on her system
that she grew rapidly worse. and about
three weeks ago she bid her New Ulm
friends a last farewell and accompanied
her father home, to die. She was an
accomplished young lady and the only
child remaining Mr.. Bishop by his first
wife. The bereaved have the heartfelt
sympathy of thir many friends in this
city.
The Democratic party, in this State
at least, is not a very happy family.
Here is j. j. Meighen of this county,
who. the Herald says, last fall worked
hard for Butler and bitterly denounced

county that so far received recognition
at the hands of the present administra.
ton. There is a probability of an ap.
pointment to the Sleepy Eye postoffice,
in regard to which not single ''prom.
inent'' Democrat has been consulted,
and the Herald threatens to open its
batteries should the appointment be
made. Then the appointment of Cass
to the Lake Benton postofice, which is
bitterly denounced by the clans, seems
to suit nobody but the appointee; and
now it appears that S. j. F. Ruter, the
recently appointed postmaster at Red
wood Falls, is resident of st. Paul,
and has been for year past, and OF
course none of the patrons of the Office
were consulted about the appointment.
This state of affairs is of course moi
pleasing to the rank and file asnoo;o;Ir
