SEEKING IMPROVEMENT.
A Literary Society is Organized at
Turner Hall For the Winter.

On Sunday afternoon score or more
of the literary inclined people OF the ci-
ty got together in the Turner Hall and
formed the nucleus about which is to be
built a strong literary society which is
to be the center of interest for large
number of people during the coming
winter. The membership of the society
is intended to embrace all those who
take an interest in such things and are
willing to lend their time and talent eto
the enterprise. The meeting was repre-
sentative and enthusiastic and indicates
very promising future. A committee
was selected to prepare program for
the next meeting which will be held
next Sunday and no doubt be interest
ing. There is nothing that has been de-
vised that has been found to take the
place of the old fashioned literary secie-
ties and when properly conducted they
have always proved successful and q
benefit.

UNAPPRECIATIyE PEOPLE.

It Is lamentable fact that the thea
tre patrons of this city do not seem to
appreciate the effort being made by Mr..
Johnson to provide the very best attrac-
tions possible. Twice now he has had
shows here that have played with sue
cess in both st. Paul and Minneapolis
have drawn large crowds in Mankato
and here they have failed to pay expens-
es. This shortage in a measure has to
be made up by Mr.. johnson who with
generous public spirit digs down In his
pocket to suppl; the deficiency. Now,
there are very few people who do not
enjoy good show, and unless they
show better appreciation of what is
being done, the result will be that this
city will get nothing bat the tramp ag-
gregations that play in baudy theatres
to which only a certain class of people
will cater. The next show is on We'd
nesday, October. 10th, put on by the
Warren Mobiles Co., and. should receive
the patronage of all who are interested
in building up succession of first class
attractions.

NEW uLM WINS. % to 0.

The high school boys came home
from Mankato Saturday night flushed
with victory and SO. hoarse that they
could scarcely talk. Which condition
resulted from a victory over the Man
kato foot ball team. It was good
game from all reports and the teams
were quite evenly matched. The boys
have now redeemed themselves from
the St. Peter disaster and are out for
Sleepy Eyes scalp. The Mankato Free
Press says of the game:
The foot ball game Saturday afternoon
at Sibley park between the Mankato and
New Ulm high school teams resulted in
q victery for the New Ulm team by a
score of 90 to O. The score was made
in the fist half of the game, and after
that the local team held the visitors
down. The New Ulm boys were the
heaviest but not as skillful.

PREACHED HIS LAST SERMON.

On Sunday Rev. IN. Eyrich preached
his farewell sermon to large audience
in the Evangelical church where he has
Iabored for the past five years, He goes
from here to LIE Sueur, the scenes of his
first work in ministry. The.schurch at
LIE Sueur, is strong one and repeatedly
has made offers to Mr.. Eyrich, but he
has been so thoroughly satisfied with
this field that he has refused them all
until this last and it was irresistible.
During his pastorate in this city Mr.. Ey-
rich has won to himself many friends
both in and outside his congregation, q
GENIAL whole-souled man and q valuable
addition to the citizenship of any COM
munlty. New Ulm regrets to lose him
but rejoices in the fortune that puts him
in position to do more good and q
chance for higher advancement. As has
been noted before he will be succeeded
by the Rev. 81. G. Dallman of Elkhardt,
Ind, who is not an entire stranger to the
people of this city.

EDDY's RECENT VISIT.

Congressman Eddy has been making
a tour of the new Seventh district pre-
paratory to leaving for Washington.
Redwood county being now in the new
district. it makes it necessary that the
people of this district should get some-
what acquainted with the man who rep.
resents it, and Editor Hays of the Sleepy
Eye Dispatch makes haste to do so. In
an interview with Mr.. Eddy he quotes
him as saying; that while there is only
one ayowed candidate for congress in
the new seventh that there is every evil
dence to believe that there will be at
least four eminent republicans pitted
against himself for the honor of the NOM
,ination. He thinks he can win out over
the quartette and will make an active
canvas of his district in order to make
assurance doubly sure In regard to the
primary election law Mr.. Eddy says that
it has been pet idea of his Tor some
years past and he thinks that within a
short time at most all over the
United States nominations will come
from the people instead of from conyen-
tions. He thinks that is the way nomi-
nations should come and hopes that
next year Minnesota will prove that
they are good thing by having as
nearly as possible, full vote polled.

The Balloon Ascension.

The balloon ascension last night by
Prof. Ivy Baldwin, noted as one OF the
most succe ssful balloonists in the coun-
try, was grand success.
The big balloon was filed at the cor
ner OF Fourth and White streets. 1t
swayed to and fro long before the time
OF starting, as the wind struck its sides,
and it looked threatening sometimes as
the top swung almost to the ground.
1t was very nearly 6 o'clock when
Baldwin gave the word to let go, and up
shot the balloon like flash, until 1t
reached certain. height, and then sailed
away toward the northwest. AS far as
he could be seen Mr.. Baldwin was per.
forming on the trapeze. When several
miles from the city he cut loose the par
achu to and made an easy descent
Tho ascension OF Shaffer Thursday
and also the one by Baldwin were both
very successful and highly enjoyable to
the large crowds who witnessed them.

Stolen From Express Company.


Omaha, Aug. 3O.-The package OF
money found yesterday by boys has been
partially identified. A letter carrier
picked up a band which had been used
to hold money. 1t was marked $4,000
and contained other marks by which the
bank officials think they can identify it
az the band covering the package OF
money stolen from George Archibald.
the Pacific Express conpany's driver.
Later it was found that the money
package was addressed "Oitlxens Bank,
St. Paul, Nebraska, $3OOO." This ad-
dress corresponds with that on the
money stolen from Archibald. This,
with the seal OF the First National bank,
appears to complete the identity OF the
money. P. j White, agent OF the Pa.
cific Express company, said there was
no doubt the money was stolen from
his company and that claim would be
made for it.

Men Lynched in Mississippi Had Not

WASHINGTON, July 27.-Mr. Carig-
mani, the charge of the Italian embassy,
to-day laid before the State Department
affidavits from the Italian consul gem
eral at New Orleans, the consular agent
az Vicksburg. Miss. and the clerk OF
the Circuit Court of Washington county,
Miss, to establish the nationality of the
two Italians who We're killed at Erwin.
Miss, recently. The establishment of
the fact that the victims o. this affair
had not been naturalized was a condi-
ton precedent to whatever demands the
Italian government may see fit to make
in the matter of indemnity and the nm.
lshment of the offenders. Mr.. Carig-
mani is now awaiting the reply of the
State Department to these documents
before communicating with his home
government as to the next step to be
taken. 1t is safe to say that the Italian
government will insist upon every effort
being exhausted to find ana punish the
guilty. The question of indemnity will
come up later.

speech against the suffrage! clause in
the constitutional convention to-day
He said the majority of negroes paid
their taxes. their debts and obeyed the
law. Three-fifths of the agricultural
labor of the State was done by the
negroes. He contended that they
should have some voice in making the
laws and saying who shall govern
Continuing, he said:
There are 100000 negroes in this
State. Do we want to make enemies
of these people? What becomes of our
States doctrine? Do we want to teach
100000 people to look to Washington
for protection and justice rather than

it was not premeditated fraud but a

majority report.

WHY NOT try NEGOTIATION,

II is to be regretted that Mr.. Morgan
takes the stand that there is nothing
calling for arbitration or further DIS
cussion or negotiation in the dispute
between the gigantic combine which ne
has organized and the organization OF
it's employees. Human nature is prone
to err and it won't do for either labor vi
capital to claim to have all the right OF
n s,sn,,te and that the other side is all
wrong.
The latest bulletin issued by Carroll
D. Wright. commissioner OF labor, con-
tains an object lesson in the adjustment
of differences between capital and LABOR.
He embodies in his report the latest
accurate labor statistics OF Great Brit
ain. in which the advantages enjoyed
by workingmen in the United Kingdom
during the year 1899 are set forth In
detail and the fact developed that the
total of changes in compensation and
hours of labor only per cent. OF the
whole was effected through strikes.
All the others were effected by other
means.
The total number of individuals al
fected by changes in the rates OF wages
for the year 1899 was 1,175,576 and OF
this number only 34,273 had their
wages increased on account Of strikes
This is the smallest percentage on rec
ord in Great Britain.
The statistics on this subject do not
bear out reports about depression in the
labor field in the United Kingdom, but
show that a gradual improvement has
been going on since 1895. The report
shows that 1,175,576 persons were az
fected by wage changes, but of this
number only 1872 suffered reduction
in wages. The net result of these
changes showed an aggregate rise OF
s442.3S9 per week, as compared with
$500. 2s6 in 1898 and s153,32 in 1897.
The important and interesting feature
of this statement is that in the case of
So per cent. of the employees the changes
were the result of direct negotiation.
In 80 per cent. they were the result of
arbitration, mediation or other forms
of Cancellation, and in Is per cent. they
were the result of the automatic action
of sliding scales.
The important moral conveyed in
Commissioner Wright's statistics is
that negotiation is the only practical
method of settling disputes. A mere test
of endurance between the powers Of
capital and labor settles nothing per-
manently and was never known. to work
anything but injury to both sides to the
contest and to the country at large.
