NEW ULM. MINI.
BOON THE FAIR.

It is time that the people of New Ulm
were stirring III the matter of county
Fair. The Agricultural Society seems
negligent in the matter, and the Secre.
rary has informed us that for himself he
is unconcerned in the success or failure
of the annual exhibit This is not the
proper spirit TO manifest in matters of
such moment 10 the business interests
of the city, and when the usual means
fail It is time that the citizens take the
project into their own hands and carry
it to unparalleled success.
The recent Fourth of July demonstra-
ton is an evidence of what New Ulm
can do at short notice, and will help us
in future undertakings. Tc work up
an interest IN similar demonstration
for the Fair, to induce our business
men and those of neighboring towns to
help things along with an industrial
parade, to secure good speakers and to
get the farmers of the richest agri-
cultural district in the state to make in.
teresting exhibits will not be difficult,
and the opportunity for thus setting
forth the resources of the county and its
commercial centres should not be al
lowed to slip by without taking sdvan-
tage of it.

THE PLATFORM IN IOWA.

The Iowa Republicans held their state
convention last Wednesday and nomi-
mated Hiram G. Wheeler, good and
popular man, for governor. The con-
vention was the most enthusiastic held
in that state in many years, and to all
appearances the party is more closely
united than it has been in recent cam
paigns. The platform, however, while
strong on the tariff and other national
questions. makes one great mistake-it
endorses prohibition.
Prohibition in Iowa is failure. 1t
has in no way curtailed the sale OF IL
| quor, while on the other hand it has en-
couraged evasion of the law and disre-
spect for the authorities. 1t has been
detrimental to the best interests of the
state, and exerts no moral influence
whatever. These are facts that can be
CLEANED from everyday observation and
must be apparent to all but the fanatics.
By that we would not accuse the Re-
publicans of Iowa of fanaticism in the
matter of sumptuary legislation, but
certain it is that they have constantly
| Welded to an uncalled-for and unneces-
ary demand for approval of prohibitory
lenactments. And for what? Simply
at the behest of crankish leaders and
with the hope of holding the temper
ance vote. The result, it seems, is pat
ent to every body but the Iowa Repub-
lican themselves. Their handsome ma
iority has been cut down with every
election, and to-day the chosen one OF
the opposition holds the reins OF execu-
tive government. The good will OF all
sensible people has been arrayed against
the m, and in their endeavor to force
upon the people laws, which are not
reasonable, they are laying the toun-
dation for Democratic success lG not
only local issues, but national issues as
| we'll.
If the present outlook for big crop
| continues favorable, then Minnesota
farmers will fill their granaries. clear
their indebtedness, and assume the dig
nity that attaches to their avocation,
that Of independence. With a farm
under good cultivation and machinery
to operate the same and all out Of debt
who shall say that man is not the most
Independent parsonage on earth? His
lot is envied by his cousin in palace
walls who is under the keen eye Of some
plutocrat who owns him, body and soul.
G God crops are what will bring about
/ decided revolution in this country.

DR.. B4ARTLEII' MUST 90.

DR.. G. K. Bartlett, of the st. Peter
Hospital for Insane, according to the
St. Paul News, must step down and out.
The Board Of trustees regards the com.
mitment of Mrs Northrup as a gross
outrage, and the gentleman who has
superintendent the asylum for nearly
TWENTY-FIVE years will be called upon to
retire. DIR. James, assistant physician
at the hospital, was the principal wit
ness before the investigating commits
sion and stated that when DR.. Northrup
appeared at the asylum with his mother,
DR.. Bartlett was not present, but had
left him in charge. DR.. Northrup, up
on Introducing himself, said that he had
brought his mother for treatment.
u asked him whether he had his
commitment papers, - continued DR..
James. HE replied that he had not.
I then told him that could not receive
her because she was not legally commit
ted. He then inquired for Dr.Bartlett,
saying that he knew the doctor and was
quite certain that he would receive her.
Bartlett came in shortly afterwards.
The next thing that I heard was that Mrs.
Northrop had been admitted, DR.. Bartlett
stating to me that DR.. Northrop had
the papers at home and would send
them down as soon as he returned"
Asked whether he would have re-
ceived Mrs. Northrup he sald:'
mo, sir, because I was suspicious
of Dr.. Northrup. Of course it is not
an uncommon thing for sheriff to
bring patients without papers with the
promise that they Will be forwarded i'm
mediately, and they have always been
forwarded heretofore. The papers in this
case came down Sept. 80 or Oct. 1, a
month after commitment. My suspi-
cions became aroused and I communi.
Gated them to DR.. Bartlett, and prior
to the February meeting OF the board
had two or three conversations with
him regarding Mrs. Northrop. I told
him that did not think she was pro.
per subject for treatment in the asylum;
thatI did not like her commitment,
particularly where her son was allowed
to act as juror in her case. l told DR..
Bartlett that it was outrageous, and in
my opinion the Judge of Probate who
allowed it should be kicked out of Office.
The Doctor said nothing at this, but
smiled, saying afterward that he had
written to DR.. Northrop to come and
take his mother away. DR.. Northrop's
reply was that he was sick but would
| come as soon as WE'LL"
1t is upon the above testimony prin'
cipallY that DR.. Bartlett will be retired,
if he loses his position at all. While DR..
James stands next in the order of sue.
cession, it is not likely that he would
swerve from the truth in speaking Of
a matter of this kind, and it certainly
looks rather black for the superintend'
cnt. However, no injustice should be
shown him, and the unpleasant affair
should be thoroughly and not hastily
| investigated.

The practice of selling beer at every
public picnic that is held throughout
the county is becoming too obnoxious
to the local dealer to endure it any
longer, and steps are being taken to
put a.stop to it. AS the beer is sold
not only in violation Of the law but IN
competition with those who pay for the
privilege of selling liquors, it is no
more than right that the practice
should not be tolerated in any form
whatever. A United States marshal
has been notified of what has been GO
ing on,and unless there is speedy ces.
sation Of money making picnics there is
apt to be trouble. L might be well to
add as warning that tickets, marked

After riding for several miles along
side of rich-growing crops and large
and commodious farm houses and
granaries to listen to a political speech
such as Dr.. Fish makes, it is not an
easy matter to believe what he says.
And even if his eloquence should make
an impression, the ride home, with pros
poets for splendid yield meeting the
eye in every direction, is very apt tc
cause one to forget whether the speaker
was really talking on politics or wheth
er it was only on religion.

to accept the word OF Il stranger with

The Equitable was something entirely
new. 1t made offers that none of the
older companies with their superior adj
vantages had ever dared to make, and
started out on the theory that it is cas-
Ter to catch suckers to a new thing than
it is to secure patrons to anything that
is old and well established. As Bar

Here is what Col. Ingersoll says
about protection. Il believe in more
protection than even the Mckinley bill
gives. A nation that sells raw mater
ial will grow ignorant and poor-a ma
ton that raises raw material and sells
the manufactured article will grow il
telligent and rich. I am in favor OF
protection because it gives US diversity
of industries. This develops the brain
and gives employment to all kinds Of
talent. To raise raw material you need
only muscle; to manufacture it into
useful and beautiful forms, you neec
mind, art, genius.''

Changes of Latitude.

1t has been pointed out that the
shifting of masses of air and water
may explain the recently-observed
changes in the earth's axis of rotation.
A German physicist, Herr Lamp, notes
the displacement northward of the
maxima of air pressure in the trade
wind region, and of ocean currents. as
the sun rises in summer, and that the
water passes back to the southern
hemisphere as our winter approaches.
tits calculated that the change observed
in the latitude of Berlin (about five
seconds) would be brought about by
the movement of twenty-five hundred
cubic meters of water from thirty de-
grees south latitude to thirty-five de-
grees north latitude, producing rise
in sea level of only four inches. The
reality of the oscillation of the axis is
to be tested in different parts of the

We can easily believe that some par

ago two young men sold a parrot to the
wife of a night Waterman in New York.
A few nights afterward one of the
young men visited the. house with the
intention to steal the parrot he had sold,
but the bird shrieked out: Papa, pa
PAP until it woke the mistress and
frightened away the robber. A Chicago
parrot also scared burglar. He was
trying to gain an entrance into the
house by the dining-room window, when
he was startled by voice that asked
him to ''come off the perch" Long
silence ensued, and the burglar began
work again. This time sepulchral
voice cried: "You'd better go away!'

At daybreak of the morning of the

Judge Hawthorne was forced to read
the letter placed in his hands by Col.

threw down his pistol and going over
to his opponent he said, as he extended
his hand: ''Col. Ashley, it was all a

A Fight Between Bears and an Engine.

While crossing "Rattlesnake Tres
tle," near Lakeland, Fla, the other day
two large bears were overtaken by
train. The bridge was too high to
Jump from, and, finding escape impos-
sible, the bears turned, stood upright
and faced the train with fore paws up
in prize-fghter style. The engine
dashed one of them off the trestle, but
the other was thrown up into the air by
the cow-catcher, and in his fall clutched
the brass rods in front of the locomo-
tive. Desperate with pain he growled
savagely and scrambled along towards
the cab, where the stoker's face was
visible. The stoker had just been rak-
ing the fire and made a lunge at his fe-
rocious assailant with the great red
hot poker. With terrific howl the
poor beast tried to spring upon the
stoker, but lost his footing and fell al.
most under the wheels. He lost part
of hind leg, but in spite of all his
wounds he picked himself up after
rolling down the embankment (by this
time the train was off the trestle), and
bounded off into the woods. The
blood-stained engine was visited by APP
preciative crowds as soon as it reached
the next town.-Chicago News
