Citizens
Mass r1eeting.
One Was Held Tuesday Evening To Ar
range For the Reception Of
the Twelfth.
A Committee of Twelve Leading Citizens
Appointed to Make All Ar
rangements.

Upon receiving word from Quarter
master Lind last Tuesday that there was
a possibility of the Twelfth Minnesota
being mustered out at New Ulm, VIM.
Silverson at once telegraphed Gov.
Clough to the effect that a delegation
of citizens was desirous of wait
ing upon him to urge New Ulm's claims.
The governor wired in reply that no
delegation was necessary; that in all
probability New Ulm would be selected.
This gave the committee additional
grounds for hope, and in the evening q
mass meeting of citizens was held at
Gebser's Hall to cinch the matter.
Mayor Weschcke was chosen to pre-
side over this meeting and Lewis b.
krook acted as secretary. The attend
ance was large and representative.
Tie sentiment being unanimous in fa-
vor of the steps that had already been
taken, a committee of twelve was ap-
pointed to proceed with all necessary
arrangements. This committee consists
of Ferd. Crone, VIM. Silverson, Ches.
Stuebe, DR.. Schoch, Otto Schell, DR..
Weschcke, John F. Neumann, F. W.
johnson, W. G. Alvin, Phillip Liesch,
A. J. Vogel, DR.. Strickler and L. B.
KrOok.
The committee organized by electing
Ferd. Clone as president and Phillip
Llesch as secretary.
The consent of the city council having
been secured, and the Agricultural Soci-
ETY. having kindly offered the free use of
the grounds, the committee prepared
kilograms to Gov. Clough and McCleary
as follows:
To Gov. Clough: Upon receipt Of
your message a citizens n,ass meeting
was held. The people appreciate your
efforts to have the Twelfth Regiment
mustered out at New Ulm and promise
that everything possible will be done
for the comfort of the troops upon ar.
rival and during their stay. Please in

johnson
Nominated.
Nicollet County Democrats Have the Cool
Luck to Name Good Ticket.
Editor Johnson of the st. Peter Herald to
Make the Race for the Senate.

Prof. j. S. Carlson will find before the
ballots. are counted next November that
he has an opponent worthy Of his steel;
that John A. johnson is one of the most
popular men in Nicollet county.
Once before, johnson ran for the sem
ate in that same district and he came
within an ace of being elected. Had it
not been for the unaccountable action
of Charles r. Davis in entering the con-
test as an independent candidate, it
goes without saying that johnson would
have triumphed over his republican OPP
ponent with ease. As it was, he was on
ly defeated by abount ninety votes.
So Mr.. Carlson may know what to ex-
pect. If Johnson retains his health, he
will make an active campaign, stumpinq
every township in;:the county, and the
republicans all admit that on the stump
they have no one who can equal him.
To back the senatorial candidate, the
democrats of the county nominated at st.
Peter last Wednesday the strongest tick
ct they have put forward in years.
For representative they nominated
Henry Bode of Nicollet, a strong man
personally and one who surprised the
republicans some, years ago by having
himself elected to the office of county
treasurer over one of the old-time stall
warts.
Peter Giefer was selected to make the
race for treasurer. against John Webster
and Albert Lindstrom was once more
chosen as the candidate for register o1
deeds, just to show the people how easy
it it is for real good democrat to get a
majority in strongly republican county
if he wants to. III
Matt Thavls for sheriff, Jeppa Skooe
for clerk, Adam Stadick for superinten.
dent of schools and DR.. Ransom for cor.
oner-these constitute the balance of the
ticket, ticket that cannot fail to com.
mand the respect of the voters of Nicol
let county.
The convention at which it was nomi.
mated was ,he largest ever held by the
Democrats of Nicollet county.

Interests County Officers.

Judge Webber has just rendered de-
cision that will be of a great deal of in
terest to all county officers receiving
their salaries by virtue of the fee system.
In Redwood county the offices of sheriff,
register of deeds and clerk of court re-
ceive their pay through the fee system.
Several months ago these officers filed
bills with the county commissioners for
postage used in carry ing on the corrcs-
pondence of their Offices. The commits
siohers contended that, inasmuch as the
county paid these officers for work per-
formed for the county precisely the
same as private individuals, and fur
nished them with stationery on the side,
the officers should pay their postage bill,
over which the commissioners had no
exact regulations, and consequently re-
fused to allow the bills.
Shortly afterwards the officers in ques
tion employed A. G. Doliff to. take. the
matter before Judge Webber, and the
latter has just handed in decision re-
quiring the commissioners to pay the
postage bills Of these officers. The de-
cisioa is based on statutory provision
requiring the county to pay al legiti-
mate expenses Of county officers, and
the court construes postage as legitl-
mate expense.

Revenue MEASURE

WASHINGTON, April Ex-senator Tel
Ter expressed the opinion that the

has come when we need to authorize

be that it will be necessary to grant
such authority later, if the war should
be prolonged, but certainly with
S22O, 900. 900 in cash in the treasury, we
do not want to increase the bonded in

that such a course is necessary. If
compelled to secure more funds, it
would be better at this time to resort
to some temporary eXpedient, such as
the issuance of greenbacks or treasury
notes.
