Minnesota River Improvement.

Or. Z. A. Fritsche recently rece!vet
word from Congressman Hammond II
relation to the Minnesota River I'm
lProvement work In which he points
out and emphs sizes the conditions OF
which the Chief Of Engineers recon
mended the construction OF dam q
Lac qui Psrle, namely, that half Of
the estimated first cost, or $3.50, OO(
must be raised by Minnesota or by
local interests before the work car
begin and also that the operation o.
the reservoir must be left entirely tc
the United States.
Mr.. Hammond writes further as
follows:
"The House of Representatives has
already passed it's River and Harbor
bill and there will be no hearings upon
the Minnesota River proposition
during this session. The House bill
is now in the Senate and being con.
sidered by the Committee on Commerce
OF which Senator Nelson of Minnesota
is chairman. That committee does
not intend to take up the m after during
this session of Congress for two
reasons: lst.: Because It must first
be ascertained if the $3.50. 900. 90 can be
raised, and End: 1t must be ascer-
tanned whether those interested in the
construction OF reservoir are salts
fed to leave its operation entirely to
the United States. Senator Nelson
will send.out number of the reports
SO that the question may be considered
and discussed and the committees of
Congress be informed of the senti-
ment throughout the valley in rela-
ton to the proposition.
Since there will be no committee
hearings 10 either the House or the
Senate during this season, 1t is, of
course, unnecessary for advocates of
the measure to come to Washington. ),
In view of the fact that the Minne-
sofa River is once more out of its
banks the necessity of urging these
river improvements becomes yerv
apparent and the work should be ex.
pedited as much as possible.

HARMONY PREVAILS IN TWO
COMMITTEES
Dates Agreeably Settled Upon for
Events Of Home Coming
Week"

A delegation from Fairfax, q dozen
strong, sutoed to New Ulm Wednes-
day evening to attend Joint meeting
of the executive committees which
have in charge the celebrstions COM
memorative of the Indian Massacre at
Fl. Ridgely and New Ulm. The
Fairfax delegation was headed by
Charles Hopkins who is fairly
bubbling over with enthusia sm for the
coming celebration. In his opinion
it will be one Of the biggest events
that has ever happened in this section
of the STATE. Mayor Chss. Heimann
and Rev. Emmanuel Albrecht, former
New Ulmites, also addressed the
meeting. In his remarks Rev. Albrecht
stated that be has always been proud
to call New Ulm the place of his,
birth and that with commendable.
pride he pointed out the clean streets,
and well-kept homes and yards to the
other members of the delegation.
He said not only that New Ulm looks
beautiful but thrifty and progressive
as we'll.
The matter of selecting the big days
50 that there will be no clash between
the two celebrations was quickly
disposed of because New Ulm had
tentatively settled upon Wednesday
and Fl. Ridge]y wanted Thursday for
the banner days and the Fairfax
delegation was willing to switch their
reunion for the defenders from
Wednesday to Friday.
The committee in charge Of the Fl.
Ridgely celebration has already made
to the State for at least
four companies Of militia and is
an effort to secure part Of the
federal troops from Fl. Smelling to
assist in the celebration and to give
the spectators sham battle. These
plans, however, will be carried out
only In case the state and federal
troops can be secured without expense
70 the committee. Other matters of
general interest we're discussed and
prevail thruout that the
wo committees should work hand in
land to make both events an I'M
'recedented success.
After the Fairfax delegation had
eft, the local committee disposed Of q
CIV matters that required attention.
