New Ulm review. (New Ulm, Brown County, Minn.) 1892-1961, 1904-05-25
I'm Memorium,

Once again it is given to US who
live to place the garlands of spring
time upon the graves of those who in
the morning of life, were sacrificed for
the maintenance of a principle. Few
wars have been waged as the wars OF
the United States have been-to up
hold a righteous cause and not to
acquire territory. Nations, that live
for greed cannot and should not sur
i've, and the calendar of crimes
has none more pernicious than that OF
greed. 1t is easy to understand all Of
them except the crime of greed; all the
lusts of the flesh, except the lust OF
gain; all the sins that ever damned a
soul, except the sin of selfshness, but
that nation had better be like a pack
of witches cats, and howl in sympathy
with its tribe; or a pack of tramps who
divide their handouts with those more
hungry than themselves; yes, it had
better be like lot of NANCY, yellow
dogs having no master and knowing
no kin than to be rich in the spoils Of
war at the cost of precious lives.
The greed of nations, yesterday and
today has left thousands of children
without rugs to shield their nakedness
from the cold north winds: tens Of
thousands of innocents, such as Christ
blessed, who die every year for lack
of food; millions whose cry goes uI
every day to the Great Throne mot for
salvation, but for bread; not for robe
of righteousness, but for a second
hand pair of pants.
When we contemplate the havoc that
the greed of nations has wrought: the
orphans and widows it has made; the
tears that have been shed for the glory
of ambition, and OF the women who
loved the soldiers pushed from them
by the cruel hand of ambition; we must
conclude that it is better far that such
a people should live in the confines OF
a narrow territory happy in the
pursuit of their own desires, than to
taste of ambition and become drunk
on the wine of success.
Not one of all the thousands, whose
dream of life is past, and whose graves
are marked with the tablets that bear
witness to the fact that they died for
their country, but would rather be the
poorest laborer ivingRin his own hut,
with the vines growing over the door

TOUCHED up HIS CLOTHES
CORTLAND Farmer Has His Pocket
Picked.
Loses 500 in Cash and 500 in
Wheat Tickets.
Valuables Were Stolen From Him
Last Thursday.

A daring robbery which was COM
mitted at Courtland last Thursday has
been reported to the local police. F.
w. Helm, a farmer residing near that
village, was the victim, and he dropped
a roll amounting to Sl59. Although
suspicion points to a certain party,
still there is no direct clue as to the
identity of the person who extracted
the valuables from Mr.. Helm S clothes.
In telling his story to the police Mr.
Helm says that he was at hauling
bee last Thursday. 1t seems that Rev.
Esker has recently been appointed to
the Evangelical pastorate at Court
! land and Mr.. Helm, with number of
his neighbors, assembled to move his
household goods into the parsonage.
The pastors belongings were at the
railroad station and on the first trip
Helm hung his coat in the kitchen.
In the pockets of the garment were
| wheat tickets valued at 500 and cur
rency to the amount of S12O but the
owner thought they would be perfectly
safe in the dwelling. Upon his return
from the depot, however, he deemed it
wise to investigate and then found
that the coat had been rifed and his
cash appropriated, but there was no
way to trace the thief.
During the time Mr.. Helm was alb
sent two sons of Rev. Eskar were in
the house. They were carrying boxes
and other articles within doors and
passed through the kitchen a number
of times. Both aver that they did
not notice any one approach the
house but a neighbor has testified to
seeing another person about the prem
ises. How entrance could have been
effected when the two boys were so
I close does not appear but it might
have been contrived.
| After discovering his loss Mr.. Helm
reported it to County Attorney A. A.
Stone of ST. Peter, but the latter in
formed him that he must secure some
tangible evidence before the authori-
ties could issue warrants. He came
to New Ulm Monday and had talk
with Chief Adolph Klause and the lat
ter will give him all possible assist
ance in his attempt to recover his
property.

Lamberton has a Commercial Club
that believes in salvation by works.
The club in a body took teams and
scrapers and spent a day repairing
impossible places in the roads leading
into Lamberton, last week. The wives
to these men carried dinner to them
and encouraged them in the work.
That is what you might call a live

and the grapes ripening purple in the
kisses of the autumn sun; with a loving
wife by his side, knitting as the day
died out of the sky, and with his
children on his knee, and to have gone
down to the tongueless silence of the
dreamless dust than to have been cut
off in the morning of life with the
assurance only that grateful country
would keep green his memory.
Those who died in the Civil war
laid down their lives for a principle.
They died not to glorify the ambition
of despot but to preserve the Union.
If ever war was justly waged it was IN
that struggle and while tears and
flowers avail but little, the sacredness

In remembering the dead let us moi
forget the living. Those who remain
to US are few of the many who returned
from the southern fields, and while il
is possible let us make them feel thai
gratitude does not tarry until the
lamp of life is spent but the flowers
that wither on the graves of the dead

Dissertation OF the Flag.

Dissertation OF the Flag.
New York courts have held that the
American flag can be used for advertis-
ing purposes and the law is impotent
to prevent it. Public sentiment is the
only thing that upholds the dignity OF
cold Glory"
Law, being the expression of general
princip pies, sometimes is a misft in a
particular case, and the flag decision
will strike most Americans as coming
under this classification.
1t is regrettable that the law failed
to stand the tests of the courts; but, af-
ter all, nearly the same result can be
obtained as if the statute had been
confirmed.
A man only advertises his wares to
increase the sale of them. Let it be-
come a settled thing that any manu-
facturer Or merchant who profanes the
Stars and Stripes forfeits custom, in.
stead of gaining it, and even the least
patriotic will appreciate the impotency
of making sign board of the coun.
try's banner.
cold Glory" represents too much tc
real Americans for them to contem.
plate with patience an attempt to use
it to exploit "Guzzler's Whisky'' OF
a "Lameboy's Corn Cure.''
We arc a commercial naoD1a h1,t We
have not yet reached the stage where
our devotion to business eclipses oul
respect for the sacred emblems of oul
nationhood.
Bear this in mind when some buck
ster with more push than patriotism
seeks to call your attention to his
goods by defling the flag with his
bargain offers.

There is very little likelihood of the
st. Peter college being removed from
that city. While nothing definite was
done last week, there is feeling that
Minneapolis will drop the matter at
least for a time. This is a good thing
for St. Peter but is not so good for
the school as St. Peter cannot furnish
the library facilities to be found in
Minneapolis.

1t is difficult to believe that one
who occupied the high place in the
hearts of the people of all nations, as
Miss Clara Barton did, could be
guilty of the charges preferred again,
that estimable lady. Miss Barton
could have had any favor she might
ask for in this or any other country
and it is hard to believe that she
would sell her honor for a fewthousand
dollars as charged. She has resigned
her position as president of the Red
Cross society and is succeeded by Mrs.
John A. Logan.

Ulm this year will be solemn and i'm
pressive. Colonel William Pfaender
and his associates on the committee
from Hecker Post, G. A. r., have
completed their arrangements and
the progam they have prepared pro-
vides for the sacred day being OBJ
served in a fitting manner.
They will, as far as possible, carry
out the instructions contained in the
general order issued by Commander
White, of the Minnesota G.. A. r., and
as the first step a delegation of old
soldiers will visit the cemetery early
in the morning and decorate the graves
of their departed comrades.
Brigadier General Joseph Bobleter
will have command of the memorial
day parade and the resident members
of his personal staff, Major L. G.
Vogel and Capts. Andrew J. Eckstein
and Einar Hoidale, will act as aides
to the marshal of the day All of the

izations are to report to General Bob
Letter at the Indian monument on State

generously donated its services for the
occasion, and there will also be in
line the veterans of Hecker Post, Capt.
Frank Burg's battery, Company A,
Second Regiment, the children Of the
public and parochial schools and
citizens in carriages.

Arrived at the burying ground,
Commander Jacob Klossner, Jr., OF
Hecker Post will take charge of the
exercises. The command will form
about the speakers stand and two
addresses will be given, one in English
by Capt. Einar Hoidale and another
in German by Capt. Albert Stein

in the program and Hecker Circle,
Ladies of the G.. A. r., are to provide
the musical numbers.
After the ceremonies have been con-
cluded bugler will sound taps and
salutes will be fired over the graves
by Capt. Burg's artillerymen and the
members of Company A.
In compliance with the proclamation
issued by Mayor Charles Silverson
| it is desired that all business houses
be closed during the time the exercises
are in progress. Decoration Day is
set apart for adjoining soldiers graves
and all citizens should unite in per-
petuating the memory of the men who
answered the nations call to duty.

No argument is necessary to con-
vince the American people that the
cost of living has advanced. It is
equally true that life is worth great
deal more than it used to be.

It. seems that here has been a Gus
tom among farmers along rural routes
to use mail boxes for the purpose of
distributing bills and other matter
that they may have advertising auc-
ton sales, etc. The department has
refused to allow this and has issued a
warning that parties SO using the mail
boxes will be prosecuted for infraction
of the postal laws, unless the matter
so deposited is properly stamped.
Uncle Sam treats the rural mail boxes
the same as boxes in the postoffice and
will not allow them to be used any diff
ferently.

Some of the papers in the state are
complaining because there is little
action among the people aspiring to
county Office. This is one of the unac-
knowledged blessings that should call
forth vote of thanks. These same
papers need not lose sleep for fear there
will be no candidates. They are
usually like mushrooms when the time
comes spring up in the night and live
and die between two sun rises.

the Russians. This uncomfortable sit

The last issue of the Office Blotter,
magazine devoted to the interests of
banks and county offices, contains no.
tees of the starting of nine new banks
in this state. There is either lots of
money made in handling what money
there is or else there is an abundance
of it to handle. The fact remains,
however, that only a small portion of
it finds it's way into the printing Offices.

Louis G.. Vogel, auditor of Brown
county, is keeping up his fight for the
nomination as state treasurer, and
will go before the convention on June
80 with strong support. Mr.. Vogel is
one of the most efficient county Off

among his brother officials; this fact
alone is an element of strength in his
campaign which is bound to have a
telling effect.

BRAY vs. THE STATE. Petition for habeas corpus-Appeai
 from the City Court of Aontsom-

 1. Habeas corpus: what Is revisaole thereby.-Under the provisions Of our statute the writ of hebeas corpus is moi a revisory remedy. and can not be made to answer the purposes Of an anpeal. certtorari or writ of error; and when A judgment or sentence Of an- other court is returned, as the cause of inc petitioner's detention or impri" sonment the jurisdiction of the court to render that judgment or sentence is the only matter that can be inQuir- ed into. and mere errors or irregulari- ties in the proceedings are not avafia- ble.
 2. Same; same; judgment of recor- der of city for violation of city ordt- nance-The judgment of the recorder of a city, sitting as a magistrate, and having Jurisdiction conferred by law to try and dispose of a criminal charge. for the violation of city ordinances, 1. as conclusive, when jurisdiction has attached, as the adjudications of any other court. and no error in the pro- ceedings before him, which did not af- feet his jurisdiction, will render the judgment void; and its validity can not be assailed on petition for dis charge under habeas corpus by parol evidence, and If the recorder, as. such court, had jurisdiction, both of the subject matter and of the prisoners person, the latter can not be discharg- ed on habeas corpus.
 S. Charter of the city of Montgom- cry; office of recorder judicially estab- lished-Under the charter of the city of Montgomery and the acts of the legislature amending the same, the of- flee of the recorder of said city Is con- additionally established, and there Is conferred upon such officer, Jurisdiction to try and determine cases for the violation of the ordinances and by laws of the city.
 4 Violation of city ordinance: im- prisonment as punishment legal and not imprisonment for debt.-The prose- cution for the violation of a municipal ordinance, which is adopted as a matter of internal police regulation or for the maintenance of good order and government in city, is quasi crimi- nal proceedings, and not criminal action, and upon the person proceeded against being convicted. tht imposi- tion of a fine or a sentence to imprison- ment or hard labor for the city can not be construed to be Imprisonment for debt; and this is true, although the ordinance violated was the failure to pay hack hire, as provided by ordi- nance of the city.
 B. Trial by jury; constitutional guarantee not infringed by trial by re- corder for violation of municipal ordi- nance.-The constitutional guarantee of trial by jury in prosecutions by indictment. does not apply to trial for the violation of a municipal ordinance; and such gurantee is not infringed by a person being tried before the re- corder of a city for violation of one of its ordinances.
