New Ulr1 Review
Wednesday, October II, 1904.
Henry watterson.

The opportunity presented to the
people of this city of hearing this
greatest of southern orators since
Henry Clay, should not be passed.
Mr.. Watterson is not merely speaker
as most of US know speakers, he is an
orator, next to Robt. Ingersoll in finely
turned phrases. He is man of more
than national reputation, vigorous
and convincing speaker, and the man
agement of Turner theater should find
his coming here endorsed by a large
audience. New Ulm is undertaking
much in attempting to pay for such
excellent talent and it will be necessary
for the people to crowd the house to
pay the guarantee. The fact that there
is merit in the entertainment should
make it unnecessary to urge this
upon the people of the city and vicinity

Perhaps the greatest lesson that
may be drawn from the anniversary

ton of which the people of this city
have taken such justifable pride, is
that of "Honor thy father and thy
mother" Never before in the history
of this place has sight more touch.
ing and more expressive of the great
principle of life been manifested than
in the gathering of the old people at
the Turner theater last Friday.
They are the fathers and mothers OF
this city-past the active period of life
and there is nothing more ennobling
and that rebounds more to the credit
of the sons and daughters who had
them as their guests than this same
tribute paid to them that even
ing. 1t may be that they are old and
the beauty that once was theirs has
persisted and gone with the days OF
their youth, but the hearts that once
beat with pride and faltered in the
confession Of loves young dream are
still responsive to the attentions that
may have long been neglected.
Out of all that we possess, the treas
ures that we may accumulate and the
ties we may form there are none Of
greater worth than father and mother,
and it is we'll to remember wherever
we meet these old people that they are
somebody's mother. Greater honor
can no man attain than this that he
was good to his mother.

The Race for Governor.

Laying aside all party prejudice and
looking at the question from a
disinterested view point, it must be
admitted that John A. Johnson is
gathering strength as the time shortens
toward election. While it seems i'm
possible for democrat to be elected
in this state in a presidential year the
chances this time are not so remote
but that Mr.. Dunn will be badly scared
until the returns are all in.
This condition of affairs arises from
the fact that the republican candidate
is not the choice of the people of the
state and the democratic candidate is.
The republican candidate forced him
self upon d party the majority of
whom did not want him, the democratic
candidate had the nomination forced
upon him; that is the difference.
Bob Dunn, as he is best known,
made an excellent auditor; he will be
elected governor and will make good
official. He has to contend against
great handicaps; he is uncouth-the
worst side of the man is always out;
he lacks the polish and forensic ability
of his opponent; his education is &C
quired by manual labor, he is thor
Oughly self-made. He is unfortunate
in having made enemies of the men
who could help him most and the
party management itself is giving him
but very lukewarm support.
On the other hand there is a united
democracy, each man of which seems
to be self-constituted committee to
work for Johnson, who has everything
to recommend him that Dunn has
against his chances. These conditions
exist. There is no use denying it, and
there is but one hope for anything like
majority for Mr.. Dunn and that is
in the uniting of the warning factions
in the republican party If this can
be done between now and election time
Mr.. Dunn need have no fear, if it
can't the chances are even for the
election of John A. Johnson with some
votes to spare.

PICTURE OF IRVING RARE.

Two pictures Mr.. johnson prizes
especially. One is the first he received
of men outside the state, that OF
Thomas B. Reed, a large picture and
handsomely framed and hung by it
self in place of honor; and the other
of Sir Henry Irving. This latter por-
trait is work of art and is valuable.
It was taken by the famous photo
grapher, Mrs. Cameron London, and
is unlike any other photograph in that
the features stand out almost like a
cast. A little book of fifteen photo
graphs by Mrs. Cameron sold recently
in New York for S35.
Other pictures of value are OF
General Sigel, who once visited New
Ulm, and of Henry Watterson, who is
to speak here next week.
The collection might be grouped for
convenience into several classes:
General, statesmen of the old school,
military men, literary men and editors.
It contains also the Spanish peace
commission and all the members OF
the present senate A partial list
would include the following:

The New Ulm News makes the state

The New Ulm News makes the state
ment that the retaining wall of the
courthouse square, over which the
city and county have disagreed, is
only about six inches out the way.
The way in which the article is put
makes it appear that Chairman Eek
stein was wrong in his charges and
had made unnecessary trouble. The
facts are that the wall is about twenty
two inches on the one end and twenty
four inches on the other out of the
way, and while it is understood there
will be no change made, the fact re-
mains that Mr.. Eckstein was correct
and has done the county good service
in protesting the way he did.

CAST SANE AS IN NEW YORK.

CAST SANE AS IN NEW YORK.
AS New Ulm is to have Mr. Hop
per's personal selection of cast and
chorus, and as the production is to be
done precisely as it was given at the
Lyric theater, this city will not lack
opportunities of judging the new edi-
ton of Wang under as favorable
auspices as New York enjoyed.
The piece is in two acts. There are
eighteen principal musical selections.
Besides the chorus numbers, the main
characters are interpreted by twenty
players and the entire company con-
sists of seventy male and female
voices.
FORTY PRETTY CHORUS GIRLS.
This includes the original Lyric the
alter chorus girls forty fetching girls
who are heralded as the highest sala-
ried chorus young women in this coun-
try, the same fair maids whose youth,
beauty and gracefulness won them
fame and fortune in the all-summer
series of Shubert operas at Manhatten
beach.
Novel features with "Wang" are
the famous sacred elephant, the quaint
Cambodian ENJOYS, and the cute little
babies who assist Mr.. Hopper in sing
ing the pretty nursery rhymes.
Altogether, it may be said that ia
rejuvenating his first and fondest
comic opera the tall comedian with
the cavernous voice has added anoth-
er triumph to his long list of theatre
cal achievements.

1t would seem that populist lines are
apt to run parallel to those of rein
stated radical democracy. If those
lines diverge, we can act independent
ly, but if they shall converge we should
take advantage Of our opportunity.
What good can possibly come from an
nouncing in advance that we will not

purposes are very likely to be identical
with ours? Such course will, if per-
sisted in very likely result in once
