Question Arises as to Who Has Right

Charles Giezentanner, editor of the

entanner also stated tnat many Ia
borers were arriving daily at Pasco
and Kennewick to enter the employ
of Sims & Shields, who nave the con-
tract for the excavating work of the

Fight Is Complicated.
An interesting fight is scheduled to
develop between the Hill and Harri-
man interests in the building of the
road down the river. The Wallula Pa

represent Hartman has filed con-

What Will It Mean?


Whether or not these filings will
give to the Wallula Pacific an alb
solute right of way, is now a question.
1t has been developed that several
weeks ago the Hill interests, acting
under the lieu land grant made to
the Northern Pacific by congress years
ago, filed On every available foot of
government land along the Columbia
on the north side. This would practi-
cally shut out the Wallula Pacific
from securing a right of way over
these lands unless it could be secured
from the Northern Pacific.
Just what the intention of the WAL
lula Pacific is is not known, but sew
eral reasons may be advanced in ex-
planation of it's action. While the
Hartman officials deny that the
company is fostered by their leader
developments since the organization
of the corporation tend to show that
it was not only promoted at the in
stance of Mr.. Hartman but is re-
ceiving support from him and that the
purpose in attempting to take up the
right of way along the Columbia in
advance of the Northern Pacific is
to put as many obstacles as possible in
the path of the Hill road.

COMBINE TO CELEBRATE 4TH.
Militia, Fire Departmentand Turn
yerein Make Preparations.
New Ulm Will be in Line For
Patriotic Demonstrations.
Day Will be Made Glorious by All
Modern Pyrotechnics.

For a long time it was thought that
this city would not have celebration
of any kind on the Fourth of July and
then there was a cry from some of the
people who have not had the pleasure
of attending a celebration for many
years. and the Fire department con-
c1uded to unite with the Militia and the
Turnverein and give the old town a
good observance of the day.
At meeting held Saturday evening
this agreement was entered into and it
was decided in accordance with the
above, SO that the people of New Ulm
will not need to go out of the city to
give vent to their enthusiasm but will
find ample opportunity here at home.
Therewill be all customary attributes
to the old-fashioned celebration. The
sunrise gun, the parade, the speeches
and the fireworks. 1t is more than
likely that there will be ball game
and in fact it may be depended upon
that there will be nothing left undone
that will tend to give the city grand
celebration.
The combined forces of these three
organizations are a sufficient guarantee
of the success of the enterprise-and the
way they take hold Of it is assurance
that they will carry it through to the
I, WI lo
of the people from out of the city com,
ing to see.
The plans of the committee will be
published as soon as they are per-
fected, which will be in the very neal
| feature.

H0RNBURG SUES FOR DAMAGES
Case Of Hornbnrg VS.. Davis to be
Tried in MankatO Court.

The case of Chas. II. Hornburg of
this city VS.. Mrs. Elizabeth Davis of
Cambria was taken up before Judge
Cray one day last week. The judge
granted the motion of the defendants
attorney that she be allowed leave to
serve answer. This was done by the
defendant filing an affidavit of her
ignorance as to the understanding of
the summons. WhereupOn Mr.. Horn
burg's attorneys appeared with a
counter affidavit showing that the sum-
mons were fully comprehended.
The suit originates through horse
and buggy deal in which Mrs. Davis
went to Mr.. Hornburg to buy buggy
that he priced atS1l5. The lady traded
in horse valued at 800 and gave him
her note for S25. She represented the
horse to be sound when she took the
buggy and delivered her horse and
note. Mr.. Hornburg soon discovered
that the horse had the blind staggers
and was not as represented and now
sues to recover the value of the buggy.
Mr.. Hornburg is quite confident OF
| favorable results since as it is assum-
ed there is but little defense, and the
appellant possesses witnesses who are
ready to swear to the condition of the
horse at the time of it's receival here il
this city. The animal as is stated made
tour of this city, crossing lots ant
attempting to break through fences
until finally it was caught in its at
tempt to pass through q box car il
the Chicago and Northwestern yard
by the city authorities.
