DOWN
Third Gas Proposition Before
People.
Citizens will Be Given Opportun.
lty to Purchase Stock.

For the third time within two years
the question of gas plant for New
Ulm is up for discussion. Last week
James J. Donelan and H. A. Morev
of Waverly, Iowa we're in our city to
size up the situation for the installa-
ton Of q gas plant. A gas plant u
something that our citizens have been
decidedly partial to and our city
council has made special efforts TO
secure such plant, but SO far With
out avail. The gentlemen from Iowa
seemed favorably Impressed with the
situation as they found it and an in
formal meeting was arranged between
them and the members Of the City
Council Tuesday evening at the Com
mercial Club Rooms.
No definite action wss taken. The
matter was merely discussed. From
the statements made by the gentlemen
from Iowa it would appear that they
own and operate gas plants at Waver-
ly and Clinton. Iowa and are also
interested in other gas plants. II they
should decide to come here, they
would organize . stock company
capitalized for $4,000 and issue 500
shares at par value Of 500 per
share. They would furnish not to
exceed one.third Of the capital 70
quired and our citizens would be ex.
pected to subscribe for the balance Of
the stock.
In view Of the fact that these parties
are unknown here, the council Will
secure authentic and reliable informa
ton as to their financial responsible
lily and If such reports are favorable
negotiations will be resumed, th,
terms oi the frsnchiss agreed ynDoa
1 I'D the preliminary work looking
toward securing the secesssry cspits
vigorously pushed. It 10 to be hoped
that this project will work cut sue
cessfully. .... .....

Well. Known Pioneer Answers
Deaths Summons.

1t becomes our painful duty this week
to chronicle the death ofsnother one OF
our old pioneers, Mrs. Margaretha Nix,
which occurred Monday afternoon at her
home on Center Street after an illness
lasting about week.
The deceased whose maiden name was
Margaretha Schneider was born in
Ebersheim. Grossherzogtum Hessen.
Germany, Sept. %, 1885 and was 81
years old when che died. She was .
mere child when her parents came to
this country, first settling at Buffalo,
N. Y. About year later they moved
to Cleveland, Ohio. On the 18th day
of November 1852 Miss Schneider wac
married to Capt. Jacob Nix who pre-
coded her in death Jan. 8. 1897. In the
spring Of 1868 the family came to New
Ulm, whore the deceased has made her
home ever since. Six children were
born to her, two of whom died IN in
fancy. Another SOD, Willie, died at
the age of 16 al her oldest son Robert
about q year ago. The death Of Robert
was the hardest blow that could be
isited upon a Loving and devoted
mo, her and this deep sorrow weighed
her down and seriously impaired her
health and she never was herself from
that time on. ...
All the pioneers had their share OF
ha rdships and privations to contend
with. their sorrows and disappointments
and the deceased escaped none of them
On the contrary she had more than
her share, more than is usually allotted,
but abe bore them all with that calm
fortitude which bespeaks q grand
character and noble mind. .....
The deceased was an Intellectually
bright woman and MAINTAIN ned her men,
tally unimpaired to the end. She was
good conversationalist and it was .
pleasure to listen to her description of
the early life in the pioneer days. Sne
was an ardent freethinker and was
always willing to assist in spreading
liberal views along ell lines. I
She is survived by her daughters,
Miss Amslia Nix o. st. Paul, Mrs.
Emmy Steinhauser Of New Ulm, her
Irms Nix, Armin Nix,
Elsie Nix and Gretchen Steinhauser
and IN only sister, Mrs. Marie Schuetz
Of Lansing, Mich. At the time Of her
death che was .. member Of the Ladies'
Society of tho New Ulm Turnverein.
Tho funeral will bs held Thursday
afternoon 1t two O'Clock and interment
made in tho city cemetery. Capt. Alb.
5teluhaueer will deliver the funeral

BANQUET PLANNED FOR
JANUARY Path.
North Nankato Club Will Cele-
brate.
Natter of Extending State Road to
New Ulm to be Discussed.

At the banquet to be held by the
North Mankato Commercial Club good
roads will be the main topic OF dis
QUESTION. Prof. Ball who takes an
active part in the proposed banquet
and the matters to be discussed at the
meeting says among other things:
'.Right now would be very good
tine to begin to lay some plans for
the coming year. One of these things
10 the matter of state roads. I spoke
to MIR. George M. Palmer today and
he said there is some talk of the state
road from Madison Lake to MankatO
going through to New Ulm, and of
course, If that is the case, the right
place for its course would be through
North Mankato. Hence, We ought to
get some good speakers and invite
some prosperous farmers 10 Nicollet
county and by so doing get the
farmers in this county Interested In
good roads. We have the sand, and
material for q good road from here to
New Ulm, and there is no reason Why
We can't work up as good spirit in
this county as in Blue Earth -
Spell binders from Nicollet County
will be present to iven things up.
And it might not be bad scheme to
have New Ulm represented there by
tho oratoricsl talent Of the Commercial
Club. We certainly ought to favor
any movement which means better
roads leading into our city.
The speakers so far selected for the
banquet are George NJ. Palmer,
"Good Roads; Senator s. D. Works,
1.-THE Bridge; Representative Ole
Peterson, "Good Roads"; Go. Atty.
Geo. T. Olsen, "Commercial Clubs"
snd Senator Henry Benson whose
subject has not been selected.
The good roads movement has be
como q paramount issue in this State.
Meetings have been and are being held
everywhere to discuss this important
question. At Winons recently 700
farmers and business men met to
deliberate upon ways and means to
improve the roads leading from
Winona to the rural districts. We
have wondered that nothing has been
done in New Ulm toward arranging
for q huge mass meeting, where the
farmers and business men could listen
to addresses by men versed in this line
of work and agree upon plans Of CO.
operation looking toward establishing
system of good roads leading out
from our city. The farmers, as q
rule, are more keeDly alive to the
necessity of good roads than the city
dwellers, because they must sravel
along the public highways almost
daily with heavy loads whereas people
from the towns usually use them when
the conditions for an outing are ideal.
We suggest that meeting be ar

Sheriff Julius Makes Detailed
Report.

From the annual report submitted
to the County Commissioners by
Sheriff W. J. Julius it appears that
during the year just closed the
prisoners totslled As and that only
one OF them was woman. The total
number of days spent In the county
bsstile by all the prisoners amounted
to 623 days and the County was called
upon to pay 1878 80 for their board.
The most oil the prisoners we're charged
with minor offenses and only two we're
sent to the St. Cloud and Saltwater
penal institutions. Without knowing
what showing other Counties are
making IN this regard, We venture the
remark that our County compares
fsvorably with any other County of
the State as to its citizens being law
abiding. IL words and figures the
sheriff's report reads as follows:

II Mrs. Matthew T. Scott. president
general OF the Daughters OF the Ameri-
can Revolution, had not allowed pleas
ure to interfere with business yesterday
afternoon and had returned to Continen-
tai Hall after the reception at the White
House, and attending other social func-
tions in celebration OF the victory Of
her ticket at the polls, she would prob
abby have succeeded in adding another
victory and thus filling the cup Of JOY
and happiness to overlooking.
As it is. however, a crushing defeat
was administered to the Scott adherents
by the supporters OF Mrs. william Cum
mings Story, by carrying resolution
to postpone acton on the revision OF
the constitution until next year. Tho
committee on revision Of the constttu-
ton and bylaws had inserted in article
four Of the constitution q sentence,
which, had it been adopted, would have
eliminated the two-term proviso 30 far
as it relates to the president general
and given that of1eIal the right to Nil
the oftice as ortsn as elected.
Mrs Andrew K. Gault, vice president
general OF Nebraska, who occupied the
chair in the absence OF Mrs. Scott at
the opening OF the 4 o'clock meeting rec
ognized the fact that the Story people
were out in full force and that the Scott
party seemed in the minority. No blame.
however, can attach to Mrs. Gault for
not trying to stem the rising tide Of the
Storyites. as she vigorously pounded the
desk with her savel in her efforts TO Sc
cure order and attention for the ex-
ponents Of the proposed measures, some
times cutting in on the arguments Of
fered by the anti-Scott wing before they
had been finished.

Mrs. DunninE Speaks.

Mrs. DunninE Speaks.
The first objection to the discussion Of
the proposed revision of the constitution
and bylaws was made by Mrs. James
G. Dunning. State regent OF Massachu-
setts, who declared that the members had
not had suf1cient time to familiarize
themselves with the proposed changes.
the pamphlet containing the same having
only been distributed yesterday after
noon.
Mrs. Story, of New York, said the mat
ter was Of great Importance. and that
time should be given to the members
for deliberation and discussion OF the
proposed changes.
gested that the question might be dis
cussed this year, but that it should be
voted upon at the next Congress.
Miss Mary Isabel Forsythe. OF Kings
ton, N. Y, objected to the revised article
Of the constitution, which she declared
to be ''n-AmericanA She vigorously op-
posed the insertion VI the sentence, mo
member can hold once continuously for
more than two terms. except that the Of
fice of president general may be filled
without regard to previous service" Miss
Forsythe explained that this permitted
the president general. while in oftice, to
strengthen her position for the purpose
of retaining ONCE for life.
Mrs Charles D. Norton, State regent
Of Nebraska, spoke for immediate action,
on the ground that the members Of the
society from the far West could not af-
ford to come TO Washington every year,
and that they wanted 70 see the matter
disposed of.
Mrs. Mary s. lockwood, honorary vice
president general and one Of the foun-
ders OF the D. A B.. also voiced her
protest to the revised article, saying
that If adopted the president general
could be kept in ONCE for life.
Resolution IL Adopted.

New York, a stanch Story supporter
and who was defeated for election as

A motion by Mrs. Dunning. of Massa-
chusetts, to consider and discuss the
committee report on revision at this
