The testimony in the Cox case brought

The testimony in the Cox case brought
out conclusive evidence of the illegal
perversion of the police to politics last
spring by then Chief of Police
Sigwart. This offense alone If not COM
mitted in colluson with the police
board, should be enough to cause the in
stant dismissal of the offender from any
position on the police force. If, on the
other hand, such conduct is to be re-
warded by approval and retention,
notice is thereby served that the police
can be prostituted to political work at
any time, conditioned only that it be
employed in the interest of candidates
supported by the members of the police
board Among the charges to escape
which Sigwart resigned as chief was one
that he had shielded crooked subordi-
mates with full knowledge of their
crooked work and neglected to prefer
charges against them when their dis
honesty was brought to his attention.
The question is, Will Chief Gallagher
close his eyes to Sigwart's lawless acts
now of record in the courts, or will he
perform his plain duty by promptly
preferring charges against the eX-chief
and setting an example in discipline
which all members of the force will re-
member?

What a Fine
Senator,
The Redwood County Member Wants $3.50
for a Wrist Broken in Fight.
He Expects an Accident Insurance Compa.
ny to Pay for His own Folly.

Senator E. D. French of this district
has created another sensation by COM
mencing an action against the Masons'
Fraternal Accident Association of Amer
ica, with headquarters at Westfeld,
Mass, to recover $3.50 on account of a
broken wrist, broken while French was
in fight with his former partner, Geo.
Houghmaster, at Redwood Falls on June
13, 1896.
French had an accident insurance pol
icy in that company prior to June Is,
1896, whereby, in case of injury that
would incapacitate him from work, he
was to receive $25 per week for a time
not over tifty-two weeks. The company
has a clause in its policy whereby it re-
serves the right to refuse the indemnity
claimed in case the insured preclpitates
fight and as a result is injured. French
demanded the insurance money, but the
company came to the conclusion that
French was not entitled to the money.
French accordingly served a complaint
with the state insurance commissioner.
On the morning of the day IN question,
French entered Houghmaster's office and
got into heated discussion over their
partnership settlement After a great
deal of talk, French, according to Hough-
master, called the latter various names
that would not look we'll in print. Mr..
Houghmaster struck French and a fight
ensued. In striking at Houghmaster
once, French missed his mark and hit
against hardwood desk. This blow
broke his wrist.

A Grand
Success.
Such is the Comment Earned bY New Ulm
in her Celebration Of the Fourth.
Thousands of People Throng the City and
Apparently Enjoy Themselves
Nothing Arises to in Any Way Mar the
Pleasure Of the Day.

Despite the threatening aspect of the
weather on Saturday, Sunday, the an
niversaly of the adoption of the grand
est document that has ever been penDed
in the history of mankind, dawned clear,
cool and propitious,
Early in the morning, thunderous
peals from Capt. Burg's artillery an
nounced the approach of day Of sue
cessful ce!ebratlon, and by ten o'clock
the city was filed with people from the
surrounding towns and country.
The small urchin was in his glory,
the girls wore their prettiest dresses and
everybody seemed happy.
The parade started from the moau-
ment shortly after one o'clock in the af-
ternoon. It was not as long as some
that New Ulm has had, but what there
was was good. ..
Andrew J. Eckstein acted as marshal
of the day, with Ralph Yates and Albert
Pfaender as aides. -
In the procession were three divisions.
Andrew Amann, with Henry Koehler as
aide, marshaled the first, Henry Seifert
and John Kretch the second and Alfred
Vogel and Fred Behnke the third.
The first division consisted of the
Great Western Band, Company A, Heck
er Post, Camp Pfaender, the Mayor and
members of city council and Capt. Burg's
Battery.
In the second were the Milford Band,
the New Ulm and St. Paul Turner'S,
the Actlves as an escort to the float
"Liberty," the Sons of Hermann, Arbeit-
or Verein, Maennerchor and float repre-
senting the "Father of His Country.'',
The third division was made up of the
New Prague Band, the New Ulm Fire
Department, float representing an In
dian scene, and citizens in carriages.
Before two o'clock the parade was
over and the various divisions dispersed
at the monument.
From that time on the immense crowd
of people divided up among the differ
eqt amusement resorts of the city.

THE DRIVING PARK RACES
They Attracted Large Crowds and Gave
Good Satilfaction.

Inc pest or weather favored the rae
ing association on both days this year.
The crowd on Saturday was small, but
that on Sunday made up for it, from
1 200 to 1900 people being present.
The races on Saturday consisted, by
special arrangement, of the $3.50 pace
and one of the best running races that
has ever been seen on the New Ulm
track.
The pacing contest was entered by
Nan Wilkes, owned by Spoerhase of
New Ulm, Lena Falk, owned by Gahenz
ofe6t. Paul, and Flossie, owned by Nc
Gowan Of Morton. In the first heat,
McGowan's horse broke repeatedly and
finished fully an eighth of mile in the
rear. Nan Wilkes and Lena Falk, how
ever, finished neck and neck, so close
that the judges at first decided it to be
a dead heat. Later on they reversed
their decision and gave the heat to Spoer-
hase. In the second and third heats,
Nan Wilkes came in first easily and won
the race. The following is the result as
announced officially:
Nan Wilkes L / /
Lena Falk 2 3 2
Flossle 3 3
. :. =
Time, 2 :394, 2:394, and :S94. Purse,
$3.50.
The running race which followed was
exciting. It was entered by such we'll
known horses as Gray Fox and Optimus
and additional interest was created from
the fact that Optimus was ridden by a
little boy of eleven years, who was sick
at the time. There was no jockeying
whatever, and as result Optimus won
the race easily. It was worth the price
of admission alone to see that horse run.
He has remarkable speed and while rae
ing stretches out almost after the manner
Of q greyhound. Only two heats were
run, as follows:
Optimus 1
Colonel @
Julia B 8 8
Gray Fox 4
Time, 50 and So. Purse, $50.

The Crowds.

AAC O4O"OSs
The crowd was the largest, with the
possible exception of last years that has
ever been in New Ulm on similar oc-
casion. Thousands of people were in
town, and the railroads reaped harvest.
The Northwestern alone hauled in over
700 people. Two hundred came from
Sleepy Eye, about seventy from Red
wood Falls, large crowds from Spring
field and Morgan and enough others
from the smaller towns along the route
to fill nine coaches The St. Louis train
started from Morton and had but few
towns to draw from. Nevertheless it
pulled into this city with over $50 pas
sengers on board. The trains of the eve
nlng before had also brought in good
many from the Twin Cities and from
Mankato and St. Peter.
Taking it all in all, the crowd was as
we'll behaved as one could wish for and
the celebration passed off without any
boisterious or intoxicated demonstrations.
