New Ulm review. (New Ulm, Brown County, Minn.) 1892-1961, 1894-07-18


cute little scheme of nominating W. W
Smith. The trouble was that he isn't 81
big a man around the state, as he pre-
tends to be in Brown county.
The Populists have nominated 5. NJ
Owen for governor. He's as good maj
a. they could have selected and as ia
superior to the nominee of two years ag'
as the most cynical could hope for.
Dcbs has been arrested. The STRIKE
however is not broken and brief breath
ing spell can by no means be considered
as the final collapse Of so great strug
gle against the injustice of capital

head is level. His reply to the Duluth
strikers is couched in common sense
language and is of more benefit to the
strikers, if needed, than to any one else
The government has very properly in
terfered in the strike for the sake of or
der and right. Would it ever interfere
in behalf of the laboring man as against
the capitalist for the sake of fairness
and equity?
Davis boom for president will proba-
bly be as short-livcd as Mcklnley's.
There's no sense in booming man tor
the highest office IN the land just because
he happens to say sensible thing once
in awhile. The woods are full of men
who are doing as much every day.
While the Republican convention was
a grand affair to the casual observer, to
one who could peep upon the inside' it
was a game of slate-making from star
to finish. Just think for moment OF
trading off the office of chief justice to
appeare the political appetite of Darius
F. Reese!
W. w. Smith received 1874 votes for
treasurer in the Republican state con-
vcntion. Had he withdrawn in favor OF
Mr.. Block instead of Koerner, as he
should have done, Block would have
been nominated and Smiths hackers
would not now have been considered as
spiteful politicians.
Julius Block of our neighboring coun
ty made gallant fight for the Repuhl1
can nomination for state treasurer. l
was largely due to the fact, that MI
Block would not make all sorts prom
ises to bankers as to the manner in whicl
he would dispose of the states money
that he was defeated, but this fact re
fleets more credit upon him than had h
Welded to all of their wishes ard won.
It took the united efforts of Bill Mel
RAM and the Hennepin county rlng-lea
dcrs, together with the solid politics
machine of the Republican convention
to defeat shat active young hustler, Ju
Illus Block. Block was the choice Of tn
people rs was noticed by the makeup c
his vote on every ballot; he was goo
for fifteen thousand more votes to tn
state ticket than any man on the tlelt
but he wasn't a machine man. Therefor
defeat.
It is now generally understood TIL
Redwood county will furnish the ne
senator from this district. S. D. Pete
son Of Brown county is said to be in ii
field, butath office is conceded to Re-
wood this year and our people props
to accept the situation. Philbrick, Bl.
ham, Ellington and Ball are some of Il
names mentioned, and all are goo
men.-Redwood Reveillc.
