honor to them.
St. Paul Globe of Monday, October
18th: Words of praise and compliments
are heard on all sides and from all sourc-
es over the royal and hospitable manner
in which the ladies and gentlemen citi-
zens of the city cared for the many
strangers within their gates on Saturday
and Sunday, especially. Everything
thar was possible to be done ~ the citi-
zens and people of New Ulm for the
comfort of the visitors was done and no
word of complaint from any source was
heard. on this score. President Schuetze,
Of the Hermann Sons, said that a&large
number of the visiting representative
were at first loath to visit New Ulm, as
they expected to find only some kind of
an Indian reservation, but he said on
their arrival they were very agreeably
and pleasantly surprised to find large
and thriving city and all of it's citizens
overhowing with genuine hospitality.
This was said by the national president
while visiting in St. Paul, and the same
sentiment was echoed by large num-
Der of the grand representatives, who
spent two to three days in St. Paul on
their return from the convention CITY,
A very remarkable feature of the two
days festivities was the fact that no
drunken characters or offensive persons
of any kind appeared to mar the scenes,
and this speaks highly for such large
gathering of Germans. All of the dele
gates and visitors returning to their
homes by way of St. Paul expressed
themselves as highly pleased at the treat
ment they had received at the hands of

St. Peter Tribune: New Ulm citizens
never do things by halves, and though
the influx of strangers was immense the
city was equal to the emergency. The
monument is work of art, a credit
to the designer and builder.
Mankato Review: New Clm is gifted
with natural site of marvellous beauty.
Its business houses and many fine resi-
dences are built of brick, made at home
and Of good quality. Its streets are
wide and we'll improved, its lawns are
nicely shaded and sodded, and altogeth-
er the little city presents an attractive
appearance, with every evidence of thrift
and enterprise on the part OF its citizens.
St. Peter Herald: The unveiliug of
the Hermann monument at New Ulm
was grand event. The monument is
an imposing one. # .-- u
Mankato Free Press: Everyone who
went to New Ulm speaks enthusias.ical-
ly of the affair. + -. IL ~
| Gaylord Hub: The monument is ceI-
tainly a magnificent structure, master
piece of architectural design, finish and
execution, a credit alike to the Order
and the designer and builder, Julius
Berndt. If Hermann, the great Ger
man hero and deliverer Of his people,
could have arisen to life from his immor-
tai dust Of centuries, and been present,
he would exclaim in the ecstasy of his
soul, to his Sons: .Gentlemen, thank
you, one and all, for the great and un-
precedented honor you have thus SO no.

have my everlasting blessingp'
