CERTIFYING to Volunteers.

The following statistics from the war
department will come with a sense of
pleasure to those who enlisted for the
Spanish American war and had TO brush
up against the regular army soldiers.
Although 4,s79 regulars were convict-.
ed Of some misconduct, and 915 yolun.
Steers, the more fragrant offenses we're
few. Six regulars and seven volunteers
were convicted Of murder, two volun-
teers and.no regulars were found guilty
of cowardice. But 263 regulars and 10
volunteers fell asleep while on duty, and
two regulars and one volunteer SO far
forgot their country s. honor as to sit
down while at their post.
Sixteen officers Of the regular army.
and thirteen Of the volunteer forces were
courtmartialed during the fiscal year.
Ten regular officers and eight volunteers
were convicted.
The discipline Of the army is appar-
emily improving, for the number Of
Icourtmartials was 600 less than during
the preYious year.

At the regular meeting Of the city
council on Tuesday evening the mem
bers were all present. In considering
the question of compelling the railroads
to- put proper protection at the various
street crossings, the matter was left to
to the committee on streets. Agent
Beecher for the North Western was pres
ent and requested time to consult with
the officials regarding the placing Of
more than one gate.
VIM. Pfaender requested the council
to vacate certain streets near the Catho-:
lie cemetery and convey same to him
for the purpose Of establishing fruit
farm. He also desired the use Of north
German park in return for which he was
to improve it by planting trees, etc.
The Petition was lad over.

THE NEW TAX Law

The tax commission has completed ITS |

portance Of acting upon this draft the /

the following basis:

board Of equalization.
Substitutes . state board of review,
consisting Of the governor, auditor, acc

three tax commissioners
Creates q county supervisor Of assess

but retains the town assessor.

Serty from 500 to- $25. 81
Requires assessors to view property

Requires property to be assessed at its
true value. 81. 81
Requires county auditors to make up

SCISSOR to add the value of the franchise.

THE NEW Law.

The primary election law will go into
effect in this city at the coming city
election. This will be an Innovation IN
city politics. It will compel party is-.
sues as each voter must declare his atti III
iation at the primary election. In 9 q; way
this is a misfortune because party issues
should not enter into city government.
At least in cities no larger than New
Ulm. The principle that should hold is.
that the man who will best administer
the government should be chosen. In e. q
municipality which is as near a family
affair as this is, who cares whether the
men in authority believe ia protection
or free trade or whether they believe IN
government ownership of railroads or
not. The paramount question is wheth-
er they are capable of making the city
better or of retarding itsgrowth, wheth-
er they cap build a $4,000 electric light
plant for $4,000 or whether it will cost
100000. It is not politics that should
weigh in city matters, it is business
sagacity.
This will be complete revelation to
politicians and for time at least the
law will operate without interference
and the will of the people will reign.
There will be no conventions for nomi-
nation and candidates will have their
names placed on the list to be voted for
by the county auditor, each party by it.
self. In this way those men who seek
the favor of the people will necessarily
have to find some method of giving no.
tlce of their ambition or else some men
will run and nobody will know they are
running. The law specifies that the pri-
mary election shall be held seven weeks
prior to the regular election. This day
will also constitute the first day of reg
istration. The result of the election will
be watched with interest and the out
come will no doubt contain some sur
prises. 1t is good thing for this place
because it gives the voters here chance
to get acquainted with the workings of
the law before the general election in
the fall.
The Sleepy Eye Dispatch has the fol-
lowing suggestive announcement: The
primary election law does away with the
old convention methods except as to
state officers, and a candidate is forced
to make campaign for the nomination
when he beats out every other candidate
for the same Office at the primaries, he
has the privilege of beating the nominee
of the opposition. You can make the
newspapers an ally in the coming cam
paign and you will find their columns
the cheapest, cleanest and best means of
reaching the people you want to reach.

Under the inheritance tax law of the
1901 session of the Minnesota legislature
all inheritances amounting to $4,000 and
over are subject to a tax. Where the
inheritances descend direct to the family
of the deceased the tax IS one per cent.
Where they descend to outsiders the
tax is per cent.

The Review calls attention to the state.
zment Of the Citizens bank Of this city,
published ii another column. While it
is generally known that this bank is one
of the safest banking institutions in the
state, the statement published is graft
flying surprise to the friends Of the in
stltutlon. Probably no bank IN the state
is better oficered or under more cap
able management than the Citizens and
surely none are safer for depoaitors or
better to secure money from. So graf
flying has been the work and efficiency
of the officers that at the last annual

were all re- elected. Brown County has
reason to be prond Of an institution that
reflects SO much credit upon the county

Brown county has q number of cream

They should unite, form an association

for getting the farmers more deeply in
terested in the dairy business, the i'm
provement of stock for butter making

These things, while they belong to the

There is whole lot of truth in the
parting injunction of J. J. Hill in his ad-
dress to the farmers at Fargo: "Remem-
Der that whatever helps you helps the
railroad, and whatever hurts or restricts
your growth restricts the growth of the
railroad serving you. We will always

Per: The State Board of Health
