HON. AUGUST T. KOERNER,

Hon. August T. Koerner, treasurer Of
Minnesota and candidate for the same
office, was born July Z, 1S43, in Ger
many. When fourteen years of age he
came to the United States, residing for
a time in Missouri. In 1860 he removed
to Indiana for the purpose Of engaging
in the milling business, but had hardly
commenced his career when the War of
the Rebellion broke out Imbued with
that spirit that the government could
not be wrong, a spirit which brought
so many Of our German-Americans into
the Union army, Mr.. Koerner, forsak-
ing his work, enlisted in the Sixth Indi-
ana Volunteer regiment. Later he re-
enlisted in the Twenty-sixth Indiana
Volunteer regiment, serving in all for
four years and three months under the
starry flag. He participated in all in
seventeen battles, including that Of
Vicksburg, and at the battle Of Prairie
Grove he was wounded in the left arm
by rifle ball.
At the close of the war Mr.. Koerner
went to Troy, ILL.,, and in 1867 located
permanently in Minnesota, having
made trip to this state two years
previously. He made his home in
Meeker county, where he took farm.
After losing several crops he gave up
farming and engaged in clerical work.
In 1877 he was elected register of deeds
of Meeker county, occupying the posi-
ton for three consecutive terms, being
reelected each time with increasing
majorities. In 1890 he was appointed
postmaster at Litchfield, but resigned
eighteen months later to accept a seat
in the legislature, to which he had been
elected by a large vote in one Of the
most bitter political contests Of his
county.
For many years Mr.. Koerner was a
member of the Republican state central
committee, and only resigned to accept
a nomination for the position of state
treasurer in 1894, to which he was
elected by one Of the largest votes ever
given to a state official. His election
to the same place for second term
spoke volumes for the manner in which
he had conducted his office. To say the
least, a denomination for a third term
is a most high tribute to the sterling
qualities Of the man thus honored. Mr..
Koerner has not disappointed the peo-
pie Of the state, and his term has been
marked by an alertness for the security
Of public funds never surpassed.
Though a number Of banks suspended,
with large deposits Of state money In
their possession, every dollar has been
practically recovered and the treasury
of the state has not been loser, a rec
ord of which any man may be proud.
Mr.. Koerner will go into his third term
with his usually large vote, for the peo-
pie are not unmindful Of services faith
fully performed.

HON. ALBERT BERG,
CANDIDATE FOR SECRETARY OF
STATE.

Albert Berg is another example Of the
American boy, who, unaided save by
his own determination, makes his way
to the front and wins the esteem and
confidence of the people. Twice has he
been returned to the high position of
secretary of state, and again has he
been placed in nomination for the
same office by the Republicans Of the
state. An American boy because born
on American soil, he is the son Of
sturdy Swedish parents. He is also a
native Of our own State of Minnesota,
having been born at Centre City in Chi
sago county, June 25, 1861. His father
was Mr.. Jonas Berg, whose patriotism
was shown by his enlistment in the
Union army during the War Of the Re-
bellion, in which service he gave his
life. In honor of his worthy sire and
his service in the Third Minnesota vol
unteer infantry, Albert Berg has been
given the exclusive distinction of hon
orary membership in the regimental as
ISOLATION existing since the war.
After attending the common schools
Of his county, Albert Berg went to
Carleton college at Mortified, remain
ing two years, thence going to Gustav
us Adolphus college at st. Peter for
three years. During the next four
years he was employed by Major Ed
wards on the Fargo Argus, doing po-
itical work in the Northwestern States.
In 1886 he was elected register Of
deeds for Ch;sago county, and was re-
elected in 1883, serving for four years.
An expert in official work, and possess
ing a remarkably retentive memory,
he could give without reference to the
records an abstract of nearly all the
land titles in his county. This expe-
rience ripened him for the duties Of
secretary Of state, which he has so ably
performed.
In 1892 he was delegate from this
state to the national Republican con-
vention, and the same year he was a
formidable candidate for the position
which came to him two years later.
The best work of Mr.. Berg during his
present term Of office was the state
census of June 1, 1896. With an ap-
preparation far too limited he sue
ceeded in giving the state the best,
most complete and comprehensive cen
sus yet produced, and which has at
tracted favorable comment at home and
abroad. Mr.. Berg is a member Of the
Lutheran church, belongs to the frater-
nifty Of Masons, Elks, Knights of Py-
thias, and other societies. He is per-
sonally a most affable gentleman, one
who delights to meet his constituents
In an open manner, and who, without
allowing the duties of his office to be
neglected, has shown his personal
qualities by the host Of friends he has
made during his residence in the CAPT
tai city. AS a vote winner it may be
mentioned that in the election Of 1894
he received 4,75S more votes than Mel.
son for governor, and ran ahead Of the
highest vote for any state officer by
1921, while his majority was 1,72O
more than that Of any other state
officer. In the election of 1886 Mr.. Berg
defeated the Democratic-Populi fus
ion candidate by lead Of 45,752 votes
and his plurality was 3S,445.
