ZIG CROWD GREETs HAMMOND
Delivers Mastery Address Before
New UIm Voters. Frequently
Interrupted by Enthusiastic
Applause.

W. S. Hammond, candidate for re-
election in the End congressional dis
trict Monday evening delivered the
first political speech of the 1910 cam
paign in New Ulm. A large and ap-
preciative audience greeted the popu-
lar congressman in Turner Hall where
he gave delineation of his political
platform. His stand, as outlined by
himself, will no doubt appeal to the
tair-minded voter and the principles
that he advocates will secure for him
the support he deserves. Mr.. Ham
mond stated that it Is most difficult for
him to outline his political principles
| ia-as-much as the issue between him
self and his opponent has sifted down
to point of personality. His oppo-
nent, Mr.. Hammond says, has clever
ly taken his (Hammend's) platform,
on which he stood before the voters OF
the second district for the last3 years.
This platform was approved by the
people. Now then, since there is no
issue, it will be merely matter of
choice between the two aspirants,
their past record, their integrity and
ability to treat public questions for
the benefit of the public in general.
Not being able therefor to speak on
an issue, but being confined to his own
person Mr.. Hammond certainly ac-
quilted himself in a manner that can
not but win him the hearts Of the
voters in the second district. The
remarks of Mr.. Hammond, delivered
in a modest unpretentious way, show
him to be man of character and not
a politician, a man who is sincerely
bent on promulgating public welfare.
Also, the manner in which he spoke
of his opponent is Indicative of that
manly trait, and that trait alone, that
is able to discern between personal
affairs and great principles. One
thing is sure that the voters who
availed themselves of the opportunity
Of listening to Mr.. Hammond could
not but have been impressed with the
fact that they had before them a man
who is splendidly equipped to fight the
battles of the common people in our
Legislative halls. ..... ~.
AS we go to press Tuesdays we are
not able at this time to give his speech
in full, but will do so in our next
The meeting was a grand success.
The End. Reg. band furnished the
music and F. W. Johnson acted as
chairman.

The Futilty OF Impracticable
egislation.

Prof. Raymond A. Schwegler, De-
partment of Education, University of
Kansas said recently for publication:
Law has never made one soul whittier
or one life sweeter, or one child
stronger. Goodness is not the result
of repression, for repression is mother
OF sullen defiance and of midnight
orgies and hidden sins. The crop
that grows from negative legislation
is new badness; the first of weeds cut
down only lets in the sun on what
may be the seeds of another badness
that springs up forthwith, badness
worse oftimes than that crop we ex-
plunged.
Its easier to legislate than our
selves to do. The Pharisee shouts in
thunder tones 'sThou shalt not'' and
then sets in snug content, proclaiming
birthstone for a wayward world
'First the beam, then the mote'' is
still a good rule, though hoary with
two thousand years of use. Badness
is only part of the blind, ignorant
struggle for the larger, richer life.
The needed thing is not repression.
Your neighbor is hungering for
avenues Of expression that shall
bring him at the end the thing he
hungers for, the larger, richer life in.
stead of that which badness always
brings, pain, agony, and alas so often
death.
The great hungry world has not
need OF your scorn of it's badness; il
needs the example of your goodness
The crying opportunity of the hour
is the Injection of human goodness,
trans fused with the rich red blood O,
human sympathy and compassion into
the affair of the highway and byway
The little child at your knees, the
prankful boy on the street. the idler
the toilworn, the calloused and haIlow
eyed, the wearer of pearls and purrl,
and he who covers his nakedness will
rags, = they all stretch their hands
plteously to you and me and ever,
man. The worlds great bitter cryine
need is not the scornful snarl of law
''Thou shalt not'' but the gentle per
suasion OF a thousand lives that incar
nate goodness, and by doing preacl
the gospel of the bigger life.

PREDICTS DEMOCRATIC VICTORY
John Lind Sees Enthusiasm For
Democratic Candidates.

John Lind accompanied by his wife
and daughter arrived in the city Fri
day noon from Owatonna where Mr..
Lind had delivered a speech Thurday
evening. He had spent part Of last
week speaking in the lst gressional
district.
His ladies coming from St, Paul by
automobile joined him at Owatonna
and from there the party came to New
Ulm Friday noon. Here they remained
until Saturday afternoon, when they
left for Winthrop where Mr.. Lind
spent Sunday with his mother.
In speaking about the political sit
uation Mr.. Lind waxed enthusiastic
over Democratic prospects this fall
and predicts Democratic victory.
In the three cities where he spoke
last week, Albert Lea, Spring Valley
and Owatonna, said Mr.. Lind he found
a strong and growing sentiment for
James Gray and the rest of the Demo.
cratic ticket The people are turning
out to the political meetings in force,
and seem to be taking a keen interest
in the campaign. He could see no
signs of apathy, he declared.
MIR. Lind says that sentiment in the
congressional fight in the 1st district
is crystalizing in favor of Judge Buck,
Democratic candidate. He predicts
the overwhelming defeat of Sydney
Anderson, the young progressive
who trimmed Cong. James A. Tawney
in the primary fight.

A Governors Sorry Effort.

Gov. Adolph O, Eberhart in his
speech at Mankato Tuesday night
said.
"The time has also come when our
schools should be taken out of politics
and when all our educational officers
should be selected strictly upon their
merits and without reference to party
affiliations"
This is a sample Of the buncombe
with which the "keynote' speech Of
Minnesota's present gOvel nor reeks.
If there is any credit to be claimed
in this state for taking the schools out
of politics, it is due to the late Demo-
cratic governor, John A. Johnson,
who was the first governor in the his
tory of the state who did not insist
upon having the state department of
public instruction directed by officials
of his own political faith. johnson
found that department in charge of
John W. Olsen of Albert Lea as sup
erintendent, and G. G.. Schulz of st.
Peter. as assistant superintendent,
both Republicans and both Van SAINT
appointees.
johnson left them there, and they
remained there until Olsen resigned to
to become dean of the agricultural
college, and then johnson named
Schulz, still Republican, to succeed
him. The time to take the schools out
of politics arrived in 1905, Gov. John
son seized the opportunity at the time,
and Gov. Eberhart is either six
years behind the times or he is trying
to bunco the people of the state.
That it is the latter may fairly be as
sumed after reading what he has to
say on reapportionment. He accuses
the Democratic senator's in the last
legislature of beating ''fair" reap
portiorment bill without proving it
was in any sense ''fair'-by the gener-
al statement that all theDemocrats spre-
sent March 26, 1909, in the senate,
voted against it. If he had told the
whole truth, and having looked up
the record, he was abundantlY able to
even if, as lieutenant governor at the
time, his memory had failed him, he
would have explained that not single
Republican senator voted to pass that
same bill.
The position taken by the governor
in Mankato speech warrants the ad-
jectives applied to him by The Daily
News recently tricky and evasiye,

Former Superintendent Of New I Schools Passed Away
EARLY Sunday Morning in indianapolis. Linger-
ing illness Undermined His Health.
Well Known Scholar, Philosopher and Pedagogue. His
Home City in Mourning.

Although it was quite generally
known that Robert Nix has been a
very sick man (his sickness dates since
last April), and that his life had been
despaired of for days and weeks, still
his friends were unprepared. for the
sad tidings which reached here Sun
day evening announcing his death at
2:3O that morning. In the long
struggle death finally won out and one
of the brainiest, most versatile and
most honorable of men passed away.
Profound and sincere grief manifests
itself everywhere and the sympathy of
the entire community goes out to his
wife and children, to his sisters and
especially to his aged mother, who
with her daughter Amalia left Sunday
afternoon, hoping with a mothers S
hope that the worst had not and would
not transpire.
The deceased was born in Cleveland, ),
Ohio, February 1st 1854 and was but
little more than Sc years of age when
the summons came. He came to New
Ulm with his parents in 1856 and made
his home here practically all the time
until his removal to Indianapolis
about l6 years ago. He attended the
public schools here and early in life
manifested desire to become peda-
gogue and when but Is years old
entered the University of Minnesota
as freshman. Handicapped in a fnan-
cial way, he realized that he could not
attend the University for a longer
period than 2 years and bent as he
was on securing the coveted sheepskin,
he importuned the Professors to
permit him to take three years in one
which he did and he stood practically
at the head Of his class in every study,
fact which has never been attempted
and accomplished before or since. It
devolVed upon him the following year
to write the class song which he did
in Latin and also composed the music
for it. Because of his modest and
retiring disposition but few ever
learned of his achievements, but now
that he is dead and gone, it is well
that his former neighbors be informed
Of the intellectual prodigy who once
resided in their midst.
After receiving his degree at the O.
OF NJ. he returned to New Ulm and
accepted Of employment in our public
schools, holding such position until
the year 1881 when he went to Germany
for post graduate course, especially
in pedagogics and upon his return he
was elected as our first Superintendent
Of the public schools and served il

co. "A" AGAIN WINS OVER co. "K''
New Ulm Boys in St. Peter. En-.
joyable Ride Through Country.

On Sunday morning the rife team
of Co. A of this city left for st. Peter
by automobile to meet Co. K in a rifle
match on their own range. The.
weather was very unfavorable for a
match of this kind, as the haze in the,
air made it almost impossible at times
to see the target from the firing point.
The New Ulm boys succeeded in roll
ing up good score however, and de-
feated their opponents by IS points.
The shooting on the 200 and 800 yard
ranges was close and interesting, but
on the 500 range a few of the st. Peter
boys were unfortunate in not catching
the range at once and made low
scores.
Besides the first team there went
with the boys, Alex, English, Strunk,
zschunke, Engelbert, Amann and
Kohn. There were six automobiles
carrying the New Ulm people as fol-
lows: Otto Schell and his son, Wal
ter, Hubert Berg and daughter Fran
es, Anton Ochs and son, L. J. Buen-
ger, Major Buschers and wife, and
Capt. Albert Pfaender with Mrs.
Pfaender and Mrs. Adolph Klause.
The roads we're in beautiful condi-
tion to st. Peter and the trip each way
was thoroughly enjoyable.
It is the intention of Co. K. to have
a return shoot on the local range in a.
short time if it can possibly be

that capacity from the year 1883 until
the year 1894 when owing to a school
fight which was then unrelentlessly
waged in our city, he found it
necessary to tender his resignation.
He went into the work of organizing
and system atizing our schools with a
hearty goodwill, and was most pains
taking and untiring in his efforts to
perfect our schools and was eminently
successful. -.--
After severing his connections with
the schools of his home town, he was
rendered and accepted the position of
supervisor of German in the public
schools of the city of indianapolis
which position he held until the time
OF his death. He entered upon the
duties OF his new position with abso-
lutte confidence and with his wanted
energy and he won not only the good
will and respect but also the admira-
ton and love Of the citizens of Indian
apolis. The esteem in which he was
held by practically all the citizens of
his new home manifested itself when
his serious illness became known and
showed itself in their solicitude and
thus endeavors to do everything to
make to the patient comfortable,
and the entire city now mourns his
untimely death.
All hOnOrs came to him unsolicited,
as, for example, his selection as
delegate to the international phil
sophers congress during the Worlds
Fair at Chicago. He preferred home
life to being in the time-light and in
the public eye, and his first thought at
all times was for his family, to whom
he was a most dutiful aud loving son..
husband and father.
He was the author of various books
and treatises which show the pains
taking care which he bestowed on
everything he undertook. If he is to
be criticised for anything it must be
for the unbounded love for his work
which prompted him to oYerexert him
self and thus probably undermining
his health. An intellectual giant with
untiring zeal, almost limitess energy
and an honest purpose has gone to
rest would be fitting epitaph
He was married July 9, 1886 at New
Ulm to Helen Kiesling. Three children
were born to them, Irma, Armin and
Elsie. These with the aged mother
Mrs. Margaretha Nix, and his sisters,
Miss Amalia Nix and Mrs. Emmy
Steinhauser mourn his untimely death.
The deceased was especially promi-
nent il Turner circles, having always
