New Ulm review. (New Ulm, Brown County, Minn.) 1892-1961, 1904-04-06
Brown Pays the Most.

Judge B. F. Weber made an order
Friday fixing the salary of Court Re-
porter W. T. Eckstein from April /,
1904, to March 81, 1905, at $l,4O0.
This amount is apportioned among
the five counties comprising the judi
cial district and the auditors are in
structed to draw their warrants for
the following sums per month: Brown,
S51. 80: Lyon, 1872. 1t; Redwood, S2l.00;
Nicollet, Sl5.l7; Lincoln, S7.00. The
law governing the compensation Of
court stenographers provides that he
shall receive pay from each county
upon the basis of the number of days
he actually worked in that county as
compared with the full number Of days
he is employed in the district. Last
year Brown had two unusually long
terms of court and this accounts for
it's large assessment, which at first
sight appears disproportionate.

WANT 4 FEDERAL BUILDING
Focal Business Men Will Ask an

Petition to Congressman ]. 7. Nc
Cleary Being Signed.
Is Thought That $4,000 Will do
For a Beginning.

Efforts will be made to obtain an

<lffice building to be erected in New
GIN. Business men Of the city are
circulating petition with this end in
view and when a sufficient number of
ofgners shall have been secured the
Rocument will be forwarded to Con-
gressman James 7. McCleary at Wash
ington. AS the project is one which
appeals to all it is expected that the
petition will meet with a ready re-
Spouse and it will probably be mailed
before the first of next week.
In years past there has been federal
building talk in New Ulm but no de-
sermined stand in the matter has ever
been taken and the present agitation
may be said to be the first attempt at
concerted action. Lack of encourage
New Ulm review. (New Ulm, Brown County, Minn.) 1892-1961, 1904-04-06

It will be seen from the above that
the receipts show a surplus over the
operating expenses of SIS, 1896. Inter-
est at the rate of per cent on the to-
tai investment of $50, 212.S4 amounts
to 81, 408.51, but from this must be de-
Quoted the interest on the S30,O00
bonds, as the latter is listed under
operating expense. Unpaid interest,
therefore, amounts to 81, 20S.51 and
when this is taken from the profits
there is left the sum of So, 951. Is to be-
come a sinking fund or allowed for
the depreciation of the plant. Figured
as the latter it gives the generous pro-
portion of g. per cent.
The total expenditures were 1872, 24O.-
10 and the total receipts, with the
amounts transferred from other funds,
reached S29, 626.05. Thus the fund was
overdrawn S3,6l4.74 during the year
and when this is added to a prior de-
felt of So, 77192 there is a total over
draft of s7,386.66.
In committing the cost Of street light
ing each arc lamp was charged at the
rate of 1925 per month, which is not
below the old rate allowed the New
Ulm Electric Light company, 1915 per
arc per annum) except that all-night
service is given, whereas in former
years the current was turned off at l
a. m. In order to have the city make
money out of it's venture the CONNER
cial receipts must pay all the expenses
of illuminating the streets, but it
would seem that this cannot be accom-
plished for some time. However, the
plant has been under heavier ex-
pense than will be the case in years to
come, and has probably done as well
as was expected.
Supt. Wagner gives the operating
expenses of the waterworks depart
ment as 81, 42l.9O and the receipts
with hydrants assessed at $50 per an
nun, as S9,OO2.5S. They increased the
balance in the fund this year by So,
5S0.4S and the system is now S., 1852. &c
to the good-nearly as much as the
electric light shortage.

Furniture LOSS Adjusted.

F. A. Mennen of Minneapolis, state
agent for the Firemen's Fund, came to
New Ulm Thursday and adjusted the
loss on Representative S. D. Peter
sons furniture and household goods,
which were damaged and destroyed
when his residence was burned on
March 26th. Mr.. Peterson carried ST.
700 insurance on his furniture in the
Firemen's Fund and he was paid the
sum of ST, 3O3.45 The loss was paid
with remarkable promptness, six days
after the fire, and the adjustment was
very satisfactory to the owner. N.

continually grows larger and larger
and in few years, allowing for the
usual steady growth, more floor space
will be needed.
In the petition an appropriation OF
$4,000 is requested. This would be
intended to cover the expense of pur-
chasing site and erecting a building
but the opinion is expressed that it
would be adequate. There would be
no necessity here of providing for a
United States court room or apart
ments for government officials other
than the postmaster and a very i'm
posing structure could be put up for
$4,000 In any event it would form a
neat nucleus for a fund and should
events show that it was insufficient
there would doubtless be a deficiency
appropriation forthcoming.
AS regards obtaining the grant, it
should not an impossible task. New
Ulm has always stood by the district
representative and it is ready to do so
in the future. On his part he has fire.
quently shown his friendship for the
old town and the Review will be great
| ly mistaken if he does not hasten to
embrace this opportunity to ''do some
thing" for it's people. It may not, Of
course. be within his power to work a
bill through at this session but he will
at least, have gained a foothold and
paved a way for more strenuous en-.
! deavors in the future.
! One of the most ardent advocates Of
federal building is DR.. 0. G. Strick'
| Ter, owner of the structure in which the
postoffice is located at present. Dur
| ing the recent controversy over the
lease DR.. Stricken was reluctant tC
| attach his signature until he was as.
sured that his action would not injure
New Ulm's chances for obtaining ar
appropriation and when the petit tior
was circulated the was the first to sign.
DR.. Strickler's building is centrally
located and would not be long without
an occupant should the postoffice be
moved, and he would probably receive
as much in rental from private bust
ness man as is now paid him by the
government.
