GOOD ROADS.
Government Demands Good Con.
dition of Rural Highways For
the Maintenance of Free
Mail Delivery.

The Post-Ofhce department is not
Immediately concerned in elaborate
road improvements, but in the interest
of the best service to the largest num-
Der OF patrons it will, according to a
circulari1etter to Postmaster Peterson.
insist upon roads being kept in good
repair, the lack of which is usually
due to improper drainage, and insult
able grading and surface work, which
can be easily and cheaply accomplish
ed by timely work and regular use of
the split-log drag Or similar device.
AS result of general and special
advice from the department. and the
cooperation of postmasters and car
riers, there has been great improve
ment in the highways on which rural
routes are established. There are,
however, many localities where road
conditions are bad and improvements
imperative.
The local postmasters are directed
to inform themselves with reference to
the condition of roads and bridges on
the rural routes out of their offices,
and if they find that the highways re-
quire Improvement, they are requested
to present the matter in the strongest
and most positive way to the patrons
and road officials, insisting on prac-
tical improvements. If these are not
made, the fact should be reported to
the department at Washington in Or
der that action may be taken looking
to the diacontinuance of the service.

with his aunt now, with the consent
OF his parents, and will then return

COLOR OF RURAL MAIL BOXES
Important Request by Post-office
Department. Uniform Color
for Boxes on all Routes
Desired.

Postmaster Peterson is in receipt of
a circular letter in which the postofice
department desires to request all pat
rons Of rural delivery to paint their
boxes and the posts to which they are
attached a pure white color. This
course, if pursued, will not only re-
suit in benefit to the patron in serving
to protect his box and post from
damage by the weather, but will give
all boxes uniform color and serve to
fix their identity in all parts of the
country as United States mail boxes.
and will give them much heater and
sightlier appearance than they now
possess. It is also desired that pat
rons be induced to imprint their names
and box numbers on boxes in black
block letters about two inches high.
Road officials should also be induced
to paint upon the posts of boxes which
are located at crossroads (but not
attach signs thereto) the names of the
towns or villages to which the cross
roads lead, with an indicator showing
the direction.
Posts to which boxes should be
attached shall be set in an easily ac-
cessible position at the side of the
road and boxes securely fastened to
projecting arm of wood; or to bracket
of band iron about three sixteenths of
an inch thick, or, if preferred, an auto
matte extension arm may be used.

And Now Let's Get Ready For The Art Exhibit April Nth to 18th
A NEAR JOKE ON LOCAL ATTORNEYS
Frank O'Neil Retains Entire Local
Bar For Huge Case.

Many and various are the schemes
resorted to nowadays by sharpers to
fleece the public, but hardly ever has
there occurred in this city so daring
an attempt at hold-up as was perpe-
trated last Saturday upon the mem
bers of the legal fraternity in this
city. Frank O'Neil, of pleasant man
ners and glib tongue, adopting an
alias evidently taken from the name
of the former Chief of Police of the
city of Chicago, being in dire straits
for money, hit upon novel scheme to
extract expense money for a while
from the lawyers of New Ulm. Secur-
ing Introduction in a very smooth
way, he represented to one attorney
after another that he had big case
IN sight on account of his brother,
John, having all the fingers of both
hands cut off by a railway accident.
He stated that the railroad company
had made an offer of $500 and life
job, but that this was not nearly suffi-
wanted to bring suit for thirty or forty
thousand dollars, promising the at
tOrney / in case of settlement and / in
case of recovery by action. After
this proposition had been made, he i'm
mediately struck the attorney for a
small loan, intending to give his per-
SOnal note as security.
It seems that City Attorney Somsen
was the first man approached, and
was called away from dinner by a.
peremptory summons with promise of
big case in sight. Somsen & Demp-
sey aw through the scheme and dis
miss ed the wouldbe client summarily.
Ckptain Albert Pfaender was next
approached with a neat note O., intro
duction and the story of the accident
repeated to him. Mr.. Pfaender hap
pens to be we'll acquainted at Lake
Elmo and upon testing the mans story
found at once that there was something
wrong. The attempt at receiving
some money was so brazen that as
soon as he could Mr.. Pfaender went
in search Of Chief Klause to have him
look into the matter. However, in the
meantime the man was plying his trade
with the remaining attorneys in town,
Eckstein & Funk and Capt. Steinhau-
ser being successfully approached
and received the same cold reception
everywhere. In fact, he must have
thought that the entire legal fraternity
Of New Ulm was an aggregation Of
marble hearts, as he failed everywhere
of realizing anything from his pretty
little scheme. Chief Klause was noti-
fed and spotted the man at once and
found that he was a genuine fakir,
and complaint was made against him
for vagrancy. He was given sixty
days on bread and water, except
every fifth day, in Hotel Julius, where
he will have ample time to reflect upon
the vicissitudes of this life.
The lawyers intended to call upon
Mr.. O'Neil in body and inform that
yoluble gentleman that they had deci-
ded that the case was too much for one
man or firm to cope with, and that
they proposed to unite forces for the
purpose of helping him to his own.

Census Proclamation.

Pres. Taft has issued the following
proclamation regarding the census of
1910:
Whereas by the Act of Congress ap-
proved July 2, 1909, the Thirteenth
Decennial Census of the United States
is to be taken, beginning on the ff-
teenth day of April, nineteen hundred
and ten; and
Whereas a correct enumeration of
the population every ten years is re-
quired by the Constitution of the Uni
ted States for the purpose of deter
mining the representation of the sever
al States in thea House ofsRepresen-
tatives; and
Whereas it is of the utmost impor-
tance to the interests of all the people
of the United States that this census
should be complete and accurate re-
port of the population and resources
of the country:
Now, therefore, I, William Howard
Taft, President of the United States of
America, do hereby declare and make
known that, under the act aforesaid, it
is the duty of everylperson to answer
all questions on the census schedules
applying to him and the family to
which he belongs, and to the farm oc-
cupied by him or his family, and that
any adult refusing to do so is subject
to penalty.
The sole purpose of the census is to
secure general statistical information
regarding the population and resour-
ces of the country, and replies are re-
CURED from individuals only in order
to permit the compilation of such gen
eral statistics. The census has moth
ing to do with taxation, with army or
jury service, with the compulsion of
school attendance, with the regulation
of immigration, or with the enforce
ment of any national, state, Or local
law or ordinance, nor can any person
be harmed in any way by furnishing
the information required. There need
be no. fear that any disclosure will be
made regarding any individual per-
son or his affairs. For the due pros
lection of the rights and interests of
the persons furnishing information
every employee of the Census Bureau
is prohibited, under heavy penalty,
from disclosing any information which
may thus come to his knowledge.
[ therefore earnestly urge upon all
persons to answer promptly, complete
". and accurately all inquiries adj
dressed to them by the enumerators or
other employees Of the Census Bureau,
and thereby to contribute their share
toward making this great and neces-
sary public undertaking success.
