New Ulm called i The Messenger oilice
Thursday, and made ar1ane ements q
use some space for several Of THEN
brands Of their cigars. The Burg Cigar
Factory is gaining a eDviable reputa-
ton IS up-to date advertisers, and close
attention to their advertising, will show
that they employ only the most modern
methods. Mr.. Stork presented the Mes
senger with a. Nan Wilkes cigar attach.
ed to card with White ribbons, and
advertising matter on the card. The
Burg Cigar Factory evidently believes
IL advertising, but does not believe in
wasting il. Morgan Messenger.
Anti-election enthusiasm induced Hen
ry Seifert, the prominent Minnesota
street saloon keeper and Nv. Scott Smith,
landlord Of the Grand hotel, to make 4
wager upon the resultsof the election By
the terms Of which in case of Mel lnley's
reelection Seifert was to transport Mr..
Smith in wheel Harrow from the Grand
to the Northwestern depot, Smith to
perform the same Office for Mr.. Seifert
in case Of Bryan's election. Saturday
afternoon witnessed the payment Of the
bet, and with flags flying and banners
carried by a large number Of enthusiasts
5Seifert performed his parto the contract.
The procession was headed ~ the Lind
meyer band and Joe Bier with his ssdoo-
dle-sack."
The truth Of the old saying that there
is nothing certain but death and taxes
is amply exemplifed in the result Of the
official canvass pf the votes cast for
county attorney. Upon the face of the
returns as received prior to the official
canvass it appeared that Einar Holdale
had been elected by the narrow margin
of four votes, but the official count com
pleted Saturday shows him to have been
defeated " three. The shit appears to
have been made by slight variations in
the figures first received from two or
three Of the outlying towns. The cir
GRO snch that q srpcnnnt
might be fully justified but it is not yet
known whether Mr.. Hoidale will make
demand for one or not, although his
final decision will most likely beadverse
to such step.

The Minneapolis & st. Louis.

Northwestern people take a very ma
terial interest in the prosperity Of north
western railroads. The annual report
of the Minneapolis s St. Louis road for
the fiscal year ending June 80, 1900, is.
gratifying. It shows what good man
agement will do for railroad property
the northwest states.
And it's pleasing to know that the
Minneapolis & ST. Louis management is
not afraid to tell its stockholders what
+ it is doing, and in way that can be
understood. There is no better recon-
mendation for the value Of this proper.
ty than this fact.
The gross income for the year is 3d.
O63, $40. against So ,696, 6O1 the previous
year. Here is an increase of $366,974
in the earnings from an average of 534
miles operated. On the basis of a trans
continental mileage the St. Louis man
agement would make handsome show
ing indeed.
| The Minneapolis s St. Louis owns 694
miles Of track, but it leases 26 miles and
operates an average Of .534 miles Of main
. track. The st. Louis expenses other
than maintenance charges were q 1850
per cent Of the gross earnings, the lowest
figure given by any road in the north
west This is accounted for in part, of
course, by the fact that the road does
MOI rave to paw for expensive outside
offices as do other lines Of longer mile
age. At the same time, the report shows
clearly that the property is being splen-
didly handled under the immediate di-
rection of L. f. Day, general manager,
and corps Of able assistants.
It has been the ambition Of the rail
roads throughout the country to increase
the trainload per mile. Four years ago
the Minneapolis s st. Louis carried 173
tons per train mile. The average for
1900 is ISL tons. Here is an addition
|of A. per cent in the mile tonnage il,
four years without much increase in sex-
! pense for tram crews and operation.
The same people who control the Min
neapolis & st. Lonis own the Iowa Cen
trail by recent acquisition of stock. This

With the success of the republican
party at the polls the Question Of grant
ing free and independent government to
the Cubans seems to have taken sud
den set back and such influential papers
as the Chicago Inter Ocean, Minneapo-
lis Tribune and others, are very nearly
out-spoken, in their arguments in favor
the United States, and it is more than
likely that Congress will be called upon
to abrogate the resolution providing for
the ultimate freedom of the Cubans. If
such move can be justified as to Cuba,
how about the Phillppinesa 1t will pay
the believers in the Declaration of indie
pendence and the Constitution Of the
United States to keep an eye on congress.
The defeat of William Jennings Bryan
for the presidency does not mean the
death of democracy. Out Of the ruins

democracy and a return to the broad

statement that, owing to the election Of
arepublican railroad commission, amany
sweeping changes will be made in the
grain inspection department Jan. LIST,
and that the commissions attitude to-
wards the railroads will be very differ
ent from that Of the present connie
sion,'' which is just exactly the claim
made by the democrats during the cam
paign and against the latter part Of
which the farmers and shippers were
particularly warned. However, as a
majority of them seem to have voted
for the snbseryiency Of the state to the
corporations, they will have no kick
coming.

The 'sslap'' which. according to the
Brown County Journal, was given to the
Germans by The Review in its discus
sion of the nationality question turns
out to have been a verltable love pat if
the handsome majority given to S. A.
George for Judge of probate may be TAX
en- as an Indication. The principal fight
of the Journal was made upon Mr.
George and his defeat most strongly
urged by both that paper and the Volks-
blatt upon the ground that he was not q
German. It. is to be hoped that the de.
feat of the Journals candidate will teach
that paper much deserved lesson
namely, that it is not safe to appeal tt
the religious or race prejudices Of the
American people in matters political.

1t is earnestly to be hoped that the
predictions of republican orators will be
speedily fulfilled and that the Filpinos
will give up as soon as they hear of Nc
Kiniey's reelection and the killing of
American soldiers be stopped. This is
the definite promise made to this coun-
try and no one can be blamed If they
look for its immediate consummation.

NOW tudL Tile smoke OF the 5DaCLle mas
cleared away and the results of the re-
cent election are no longer in doubt
there is one question upon which it
should not be difficult to unite the men,
bers of all parties, and that is the plac-
ing of the public library under the care
and control Of the city. o. course this
cannot be done until the next munich
pal election but it is none too soon to
take up the campaign of education
which seems to be Eece ssary to give the
people proper understanding of the
matter. / am of the opinion that the
failure of the measure to carry at last
springs election was due entirely to the
fact that the voters did not thoroughly
understand the question. Even many
business men labored under a serious
misrepresentation Of the true facts and
opposed the project who now are open
in their expressions of approval. It
would seem, therefore, that the proper
thing to do is to take up the matter at
once and by fair and free discussion
make the merits of the free public Ii
brary system SO apparent and convinc-
ing as to remove the conditions which
existed last spring.

Say, I attended the cleft Hand'' So
cial at the Congregational church Fri
day evening and while | had a splendid
time one thing struck me as somewhat
peculiar and for which | could find no
good explanation. Shall l tell you what
that was? just this: That while there
was very nice party present ighty
few were members of the church 1t
does seem to me rather strange that the
mem 5ers of any society, church or secu-
lar, should be willing to leave these mat
tiers so largely to outsiders. It's all
right, at least in my estimation, to 90
after the money Of the unregenerate
Phillistine, but while doing it should
like to see the elect give their own
schemes the countenance Of their pres
ence at least.

DeIaware's Factional Fight.

Delaware promises to give another eXhi- bition of Republican factionalism, pre- venting the election of a United States Senator With Pennsylvania in a state of tumoil over the Quay fight and the Repub- licans of Nebraska tearing each other to pieces over the two Senatorships, the Sem atorial fights this year promise to be high ly interesting, not to include the fight against Cullom in Illinois
 There are fifty-two members of the Dell aware Legislature. Of these but 22 are Democrats. The thirty Republicans are divided between Addicks and anti-Adtcks men. The Legislature, under the constitu- tion of the state, can be dn session but sixty days and If at the end of that time a dead lock continues Delaware will present the extraordinary spectacle of a state with out a Senator. Addcks succeeded in dead locking the Legislature in 1895 and 1899 when he said none but he could be elected. This time ex-Senator Higgins is not oppos- ing Addicks and he Is somewhat stronger than before, but 1t is said that of the thir- ty Republicans in the Legislature five will not vote for Addicks in any circumstances. They might combine with the Democrats and elect one Republican and one Demo- crat or two Republicans

AN OCEAN STEAMER
 ENCOUNTERS STORM Reaches Queenstown Badly Grip pied After Awful Experience ALL THE PASSENGERS SAVED After the Vessels Steering Gear Had Been Badly Damaged Heavy Sea
 Broke Over the Ship Flooding
 Her Between Decks.
ALL THE PASSENGERS SAVED

Queenstown, December 31.-The British steamer Lake Megantic, Captain Taylor, from Queenstown December 26 for St. John, returned to Queenstown harbor yesterday (Sunday) morning after terrible expert! ence in a gale. She left Queenstown on Wednesday carrying the Canadian mails, | forty-fve saloon and twenty-eight cabin passengers and about 500 in the steerage. Four hundred miles west Thursday night she encountered a merciless gale. Behav- ing splendidly, she would have got through had not the steering gear become badly damaged placing her in a dangerous po- siton. The crew worked bravely and rigged handgear, and the vessel was again brought under control. Unfortunately the hand gear also became damaged. The gale lasted for twenty hours and an immense sea broke over the vessel, smashing the booby hatch and flooding her between decks, where the steerage passengers were located. It also washed away greater portion of her fittings and did considerable deck damage. Three lifeboats were also smashed. Some of the crew were seriously injured and one seaman was killed on deck.
 It was difficult work to steer the big ship back to Queenstown, but she managed to anchor here without assistance. To ev- erybodys surprise the Beaver Company directed Captain Taylor to take the Lake Megantic to Liverpool and she proceeded there with all her passengers and malls to be transferred to the Lake Superior, which will leave the Mersey Tuesday.
 The company ordered a tug to accom- pany her but none was available here. Tugs will be sent from Liverpool to meet her. There will be considerable anxiety as to her safety in her present condition, es. pscially the weather has again broke into high northwestern gale.
 It was impossible to interview any of the Lake Megantlc's people and the company is reticent, but it is understood there were indescribable scenes among the passengers, who are said to have howled in despair, expecting that the steamer would founder at any moment.

BERLIN MARKET.
The Wall Street Boom Did Not Affect
 German Traders

Berlin, December 30.-The prevailing tone Of the Boerse last week was feeble. The Wall street boom did not affect Berlin ex- cept in Northern Pacifics and some other Americans.
 Reports from the iron and coal centers continued favorable and shares fell inter- rIptedly upon continual sales by outsiders
 The improvement in the American iron market has not elicited a corresponding re- sponse here and the market is looked upon as quite certain for the future.
 Many works have shut down over the holidays. The pig iron consumers, accord ing to the Cologne Gazette, complain that the syndicate is pressing in threatening fashion for the removal of the furnaces of goods contracted for. Breslau newspa- per asserts that all the Silesian works have discharged many operatives and that the new orders quite unheard of. In word the general situation of the German iron market is gloomy
 Bank stock suffered in consequence of the feebleness of coal and iron shares, which also had depressing effect on the other industrials.
 Money, after rising through the month S settlement demands, began to decline. The prevailing rate of discount reached 4k yesterday as against 4% a week before. Much French money came to Berlin last week for loans and discounts. Foreign ex- change is tending in Germanys favor The monthly settlement has given no difficulty, the engagements being light.

FOR CHIEF OF POLICE.
The Friends of J. B. Donelson Are
 Confident.

'The friends of Captain Donelson are confident of his success at the polls,' said one of his leading supporters to an Age Herald man last night. We have made d pretty thorough canvass of the nine wards in a quiet way and are satisfied with con- ditfons While Donelson Is not the special favorite of factions, we find the following classes for him with few exceptions l. The older men-Confederate and Federal veterans g. Mechanics, railroad men, car penters, machiEsts, boiler makers, brick layers stone cutters, contractors, printers, barbers B. Professional men, lawyers, doc tors and the Criminal Court judges 4. White laborers in every department. 5. Merchants, who want just and equitable execution of the law"
 Continuing, the gentleman saidl tThe fact that Donelson has made no fight on any particular class or on any other candt- date is a strong point in his favor. He has an immense following of what are caiied the church people, because many of them know his true worth and believe that he will consclentiously discharge every duty. They know him to be man of smooth and even temper an essential characteristic for a successful police officer. Donelson and his friends have made big fuss in this campaign They have worked quietly but effectualy, and we are confident the people will elect him. *"s
