If the Journal thinks this paper con-
hives at or countenances any fraud
or illegality On the part of any Off
cial, it is badly mistaken. Justice de-
mands swift punishment for the wrong,
swifter than they usually get but at
the same time judgment should be re-
served until competent parties pass on
the action of such officials. OF course
if the Journal is trying the case and
has omnipitent power to foresee and
predict the action of body not yet
called to judge this matter then we are
at fault. However guilty man may
be he is entitled to the proper process
of law. Newspapers in the strictest
sense of the word are not dictators
and have no right to be, but when it
comes to demanding and coercing they
get beyond their legitimate purposes,
and as the Journal has done, pre-
supposes a charge that may never be
preferred andmakes a criminal out of a
man who may never be condemned.

''WANG" WINS NEW ULM HEARTS
De Wolf Hopper Draws Big Crowd Sunday
Night.

De Wolf Hopper is the same old
Wang he was years ago and in that
role delighted an audience Sunday
night that taxed the capacity of Turner
theater. A revival is not often a
triuml h, but such is Mr.. Hopper's re-
appearance in his old favorite.
Much of the triumph is doubtless to
be credited to the comedian himself,
who would put life into even dull
play, but still there is no doubt that
Wang" also is a favorite with the
public and has been out of commission
long enough SO that the story, lines
and songs are almost new again.
The story, as much as there is, deals
with the regent of Siam and his efforts
to get hold of the treasure left by the
late king for the crown prince when he
should become of age. In order to get
it "Wang" has to marry a widow
whose age and beauty are matters not
to be spoken of. He fails to get the
treasure, but as he does get divorce
from the widow everything turns out
we'll.
OF course Mr.. Hopper had to make a
speech and recite ''Casey at the Bat. y
The songs in the play were frequently
encored, especially "a Summers
Night" ''Ask of the Man in the
Moon" and the children's song.

SOMERVlLLE CHANGED HIS MIND
Senator Decides Not to Bet on Dunn in RenyiIIe
County.

When j. M. Freeman, a prominent
democratic attorney of Olivia, Rem
vile county, had yesterday completed
a recounting of local conditions at
Hector, Olivia, Martinsburg and other
points in his county and the bright
outlook for John A. johnson and F.
G. Winston in that strongly republi.
can county, Senator George W. Som
erville of Brown county, offered to
bet him $l00 that r. G. Dunn would
carry the county, says the ST. Paul
Globe.
The incident occurred in the Wind
sor hotel lobby and Senator Somer-
vile. had no sooner made the offer
than Mr.. Freeman extracted his roll
and began to tear off the wrappers.
Senator Somerville too began to
feel in his pockets for his purse, but
he had a second thought that was
much better than his first, and he die
not produce the money with which to
back up the offer.
II guess I'll not bet on your coun-
ty, Freeman he said with laugh
and the incident was over. Mr.. Free.
man put his money away with appar.
ent reluctance.

WANT EQUAL LAWS.

Representative to the state legisla-
ture this fall will be called upon to
vote upon a proposition to establish
a bill regulating reciprocal demur-
rage, favoring the shipper as well as
the railroads. The bill will be drawn
to cover the following points:
First-That cars be delivered at
loading stations in rotary order with
in prescribed time after such order
is fled, each order to be numbered
and receipt given the party ordering
the empty.
Second-That car or cars shall be
loaded within 48 hours after being
placed for loading.
Third-That car or cars shall be
moved toward their destin alton at a
specified number of miles per day of
"a hours.
Fourth-That car or cars shall be
placed at destination after arrival for
unloading within "a hours.
Fifth-That cars shall be released
by consignees 48 hours after being
placed for unloading.
There is no opposition to the assess
ment Of demurrage to relieve cars, but
it is insisted that all should be treated
alike and that shippers should not be
subject to the whims and fantasies of
party not in touch with the real situa-
ton and whose official existence de-
ponds upon the record he makes in en-
forcing the rules conceived by the
board of management he represents.
There is justice in this demand of
the shippers, providing bill of this
nature can be SO drawn that it will
stand the test of the courts. It is a
proposition that will be hard to work
out but one which in justice to the
large shippers should find a ready
hearing.

CONSTITUTIONAL Amendments.

Evidently we are to 60 on indefinite
ly voting for constitutional amend
ments, some of which the people
earnestly desire, but none Of which
they will take the trouble to vote for.
Of the three amendments to be voted
on this fall, we think two have received
a majority Of the votes cast for them.
though not a constitutional majority
One of these is the gross earnings tax
on railroads and the still more
valuable provision for prompt collect
ment of such tax when payment is
refused.
This, by the way, is not constitu-
tional amendment, but the constitution
requires submission. We have been
told for many years that the people
demanded this increase of the gross
earning tax on railroads. tits general
ly admitted that it would not raise the
taxes of the railroads above the
general level of property taxation in
the state. The railroads resist it
chiefly on the ground that the present
rate is fixed by contract and that, il
that contract is once abrogated, they
do not know where increase of taxation
will stop. Nevertheless, the people SO
far have refused to take the trouble to
vote for this law in sufficient numbers
to ratify it.
Two constitutions amendments prop
er are to be voted for. One authorizes
investment of the permanent school
and university fund in the bonds OF
counties, cities, towns, villages and
school districts of the state up to Is per
cent of the assessed valuation, instead
of per cent, as at present. This
amendment ought not to be ratified
and we believe will not be. Prudent
investors hesitated to buy bonds issued
up to 10 per cent of the assessed
valuation. The new England savings
bank laws limit investments to bonds
issued up to per cent. We cannot
understand why the school and uni
versity funds of the state should be
less prudently invested.
Then there is a crank amendment
providing that the Legislature may
abolish grand juries and provide other
means to hold persons to answer for
criminal offenses. For some reason
the last legislature did not vote to
re-submit the constitutional amend
ments that relate to taxation, which
we think were more important than
all of these together. Tax reform of
any rational kind is utterly impossible
until present constitutional limitations
upon taxation are extended.

MAKING SARATOGA CHIPS
Robert Loheyde May Start Whole.
sale Business.
Fame of Loheyde Article Alread,
Widespread.
Factory Would Give Fine Market
for New UIm Farmers.

With little more encouragement
New Ulm may have a Saratoga chip
factory. Robert Loheyde is the man
who is considering the proposition
and while he is certain that the venture
would be success, he still undecided
as to enbarking.
The art of making Saratoga chips
is one in which Mr.. Loheyde and his
wife have long been proficient and the
fame of their trials in this line is wide
spread among their friends, for whom
they have done considerable chip
frying.
So far they have made only two or
three patches of chips for the whole
sale trade, but such as they have made
for F. H. Behnke and Charles Fielder
have sold rapidly.
The chips made by Mr.. and Mrs.
Loheyde are of quality that beats
any other on the local market; they
are crisper, less greasy and taste
better than those shipped in and for
this reason would doubtless find a
wide market should the local man
decide to go into wholesale business.
There is knack in chip frying
which puts it out of the reach of very
one who tries it. In the first place a
good quality of potatoes must be
selected, then they must be cut just
right, then dried just right, and finally
fried just right.
A bushel of good potatoes will make
about ten pounds of chips, so that ii
can be seen readily that big business
in this line would mean much for the
farmers and gardeners in New Ulm
and its vicinity.
II Mr.. Loheyde decides to go into
the business he will rent a building
for the purpose, he says, push out into
the state for outside orders, and work
to run things on a large scale.
In the manufacture of the chips moi
the least valuable thing would be the
by-product, starch. From a bushel OF
the tubers can be saved a pound OF
more of starch, white and of the best
quality.

of the best things that can happen to a
state or nation for that matter and
it is the salvation of a county in
political matters. When a community
gets party ridden it is in a lamentable
condition and the people fail to take
any interest in the important matters
that should concern them most.
While there is little reason to fear
the defeat of the republican candidate
for governor, it is evident that the
independent vote will teach the party
that the only safety for it and its
security for the future lies in its strict
adherence to principles and men that
are right with the people.
We believe that the attitude of the
republican party in the line of legis-
lation for the government of this
country is right, that the principle it
advocates are the only safe ones to
follow and for this reason the control
of the state government should be in
the hands of the adherents of that
party, until it is shown that they are
stultifying themselves for private or
corporate purposes, but as far as the
county is concerned, we can see no
reason for change. Honesty is the
test of manhood in Office and as long
as our county officials are honest and
competent, and have given the people
good service there is no real reason
why they should be changed at this
time.
We earnestly advise the voters OF
the county to spare no opportunity to
hear public men when they come to
their vicinity, and be influenced by
what they say rather than the biased
opinion of men whose interest lies
in seeing certain men in Office.

LOADS OF MIDwINTER FUN.
Buffalo Boys Have Invented "Jump-

While They Skate.

The problem of how to keep wurm
and enjoy yourself while engaged in
the ancient pastime of fishing through

very ingenious manner, as the accom-
panying sketch indicates. Several
bright American boys skating on the
lake at Buffalo are believed to have
originated the idea of the Jumping

The northern boy used to sit over a
hole in the ice and wait for the fish
to bite, but that became too slow and
besides, it detracted from his pleasure
at skating. So his inventive genius
set itself to work. and the jumping

AT bend in the ravine the bird dis

when, by the merest chance, l looked
behind me, and to my surprise and
horror saw that a largelion was not over
~ yards behind me, and evidently
stalking me as carefully as had been
stalking the bird
II could have gained a tree l
should certainly have climbed it in

along the edge of the ravine till
came to place that promised shelter;

about 30 inches wide. and afterward
a perpendicular descent of SO or so
feet, terminating in quantity of
broken powders and jagged stones.
With as little appearance of alarm
as | could assume, sat down on the
edge of the precipice, ever and anon
taking careful glance behind to see
where my foe was. About 20 rods be-
hind me were few ragged bushes.
Behind these the lion had taken shell

upon my every movement. Darkness
was rapidly coming on, when l slipped
from my seat and dropped down to the

Scarcely was this done when my coat
