The County Fair.


Brown county is in position this
year to have a splendid county fair, for
which the officers are beginning to pro-
vide already. They are casting about
for suitable attractions and speculating
on events for the fair that will draw
good crowds. The secretary has his eye
on or two very 6ne things that will
draw. Besides the foreign entertain
ments TO be brought here, it should be
purpose of every farmer IN the county to
lay aside the best Of every vegetable he
grows and enter it as an exhibit. There
is no reason why this year should not
develop as fine fair as was ever seen in
the county. With the splendid grounds
here the agricultural society should be
given all the encouragement possible
aud there will be no doubt about sue
eessful fair.

]. j. Bier Dead.

Saturday a telephone message came
to the home of Joseph Bier of this city
announcing the critical condition of his
son, Joseph, at Sleepy Eye. and on Sun
day the son was dead. New Ulm peo-
ple-in fact, nearly every one in Brown
county knows Joe Bier, and have
watched the slow ebbing away of his
life with much sorrow. He died of con-
sumption after having tried every pos
ssble means to cure himself. One by
one this unfortunate family have been
taken off by the same disease, and the
parents bid fair to outlive them all.
The funeral was held from st. Mary's
|church and was very large. There re-
mains of his family wife and two chill
dren.
Joe was young man scarcely forty
years of age and wide awake business
man having started with little capital
be built for himself paying business
in the hotel and saloon business. Early
in the spring he felt the attack of the
disease which carried him away and i'm
mediately left for Colorado, but such
inroad had beer made on his lungs that
he found only temporary relief and
knowing that he must die he returned
to his family.
His funeral was attended bya large
number of people from this place, both
relatives and friends.

At the picnic in the Lutheran park
there was a large crowd. The Concor-
dla band furnished music and with the
other features of the day the celebration
was decided success. lThe Concordia
band appeared for the first time IN their
new tire--white jackets and white
caps making a very striking appearance.
The ball game was also decided
success. From point of scientific play
ing 1t was the best game ever played on
this diamond. The time for the nine
innings was little more than al hour
and the score was sc near ever until the
eighth inning that interest never waned.
Both teams played we'll and hard but
Waseca was too much for Albert Lea,
loutbatting them to large extent. The
attendance was not what was expected.
'Fhere should have been double the paid
Iaddmissions from crowd the size of the
one here on that day. The score by in
nings is:

works at night drew an immense crowd.
No finer sky rockets ever went into the
air than were thrown up on that night.
Il : -
The selection of the display was good
and the result better than IS usually
found at celebrations.
Dancing at four halls was kept up un-
til the morning hours, and everybody
went home tired enough to be satisfied
that they had remarkably fine time.
| In this connection it is no more than
| right to say that the disagreeable duty
of being on celebration committee was
taken up and handled by this one in a
remarkably successful manner SC that in
finishing up their work they did not find
themselves in debt. The committee Is
entitled to the thanks of the whole city.

KANSAS CRY, Dec. 6.-Walter Cav
anaugh, who forced his sweetheart,
Daisy Wheeler, a l7-year-old girl, to
steal 81 200 In pension money from her
mother and flee with him to Chicago,
was found guilty in the Criminal
Court here to-day and given a five
years penitentiary sentence.
Cavanaugh was convicted on testi-
mony given by the girl, who said that
he furnished the key to the bureau in
which Mrs. Wheeler had secreted the
money, and commanded her to steal it.
She objected, she said, and only gave
in when he pleaded, III you love me
you'll doit."
In Chicago Cavanaugh was robbed
Of the money, and later the couple was
arrested there. The girl was to-day
given reform school sentence, but
was paroled after the Judge had ad-
ministered a lecture.

STAY By THE FARM.

BY Max Owen.
The American farm is the keystone
Of the American natlon. Upon the
American farm should be builded our
hopes for the future. The country
that can produce its own foodstun
should never become a country in
which anarchy and revolution could
gain the mastery.
Are we, as people, forsakiDg this
keystone OF our natlon2 Census figures
would seem 70 show that we are be.
coming, more and more, trades peo-
pie, a manufacturing people.
When our government was founded
1t was government Of farmers, and
right good government it was.
Then there we're, comparatively speak
ing, no cities. But six places In the
nation could boast population Of
5000 people or more, and OF our nearly
100000 people but 81 per cent. lived
in the cities.
To-day, with 70, ,46S, ,039 people, 331
per cent, or nearly one-third, live In
cities of more than 5000 inhabitants.
Every decade shows a heavy increase
in the proportion Of urban popula-
tion.
The advantages and possibilities Of
fered BY the farm to-day are greater
than advantages and possibilities Of
fered at any time In the past. They
are greater than are offered the
majority of men In the overcrowded
cities. The farm is still a good place
for the sons Of the soil to tie to.

cred Retraction.


Yesterday at Kansas City William
O. Cardwell personally dismissed his
suit for damages against the Republic.
His lawyer, Walsh, was In st. Louis
supervising proceeding of attachment
for Excise Commissioner Seibert, who
had refused to go to Kansas City for
she purpose of being examined as a
witness in the same case. Mr.. Roz-
zelle, Walsh's Kansas City law part
ner, was not consulted by Cardwell.
Nor did Mr.. New, the Republics local
counsel in Kansas City, have any
knowledge of the affair.
Cardwell wired Walsh, but appar-
emily acted without waiting for a
reply. Cardwell stated that a man
named Brown, protesting to represent
the Republic, made a proposition,
which was acceped.
The Republic has never suggested a
settlement. Nor has it offered to re-
tract or modify any publication OF
which Cardwell complained. Cardwe
refuses, or is unable, to identify the
mysterious and generous Mr.. Brown.
In ST. Louis the attachment pro.
ceedings against Commissioner Sci
bert were dropped by Mr.. Walsh.

THERE seems to be something very
mysterious about the settlement Of
the Cardwell case. Card well claims
to have gotten 1900 and says that he
is "yindicated." The management Of
the st. Louis Republic, against whom
the suit was brought, says it did not
pay him cent Cardwel says that a
man by the name Of Brown, whom he
did not know, paid him the monay.
The settlement was made without the
knowledge or consent OF the attorneys
on either side. II any details Of the
dismissal are to be gotten 10 looks as
