Washington the other day. "It's flat on

We venture the prediction that at the
approaching fall elections the people will
make it clear that they are not against,
but for, business-big and little. We
venture the future prediction that as soon
as this verdict shall have been rendered
there will be an swaking of business and
general revival of prosperity. The
workshop, the store, the bank. the rail-

The Opening Gun Fired.

The Republican campaign in Pennsyl-
vania has been formlly opened and from
the date of the opening until the date OF
the November election the fires of en-
thusiasm and confidence will burn vigor-
ously in every section OF this great state.
The opening of the campaign at Pitts
burg on Wednesday last proclaimed to
every voter the determination of the Re-
/ publican party to restore to Pennsy ylvsnia
aud the nation the policies and principles
OF Republicsnism and to do away forever
with the blighting incompetence of De-
mocracy and the ridiculous theories from
which the entire country has been suffer-
ing since Democracy was elevated to
power.
There were no blde.and-seek perform
snces at the Pittsburg meeting OF the Re.
publican state committee at which the
campaign was opened. Republican
leaders and workers from every part oi
the state were present and had a part in
planning for an overwhelming victory in
the fall. The party platform, unani-
mously adopted and upon which the
psrty's candidates will stand, is sensible,
practicable and promises relief from the
blight put upon the state by the Demo
Gratis. II deals directly and with en-
coursging force upon the vital question
of the tariff and pledges relief not only to
the wage earners but to the wage payer,
both classes having been distressed and
disturbed by the free trade policy of tho
Democratic party in this state and the
nation.
The psrty's candidates were received
with unbounded enthusiasm at the meet
ng of the state committee at which the
party's platform was adopted. Senator
Penrose discussed national issues and
charmed his hearers, while DR.. Martin G.
Brumbaugh, the noted educator and Re-
publican candidate for governor devoted
his speech TO conditions in his state. His
past performances we're again declared to
be his platform and he convinced every
one within the reach OF his voice of his
sincerity and his confidence in the people.
Frank B. McClsin, the candidate for lieu
tenant governor, raided Democratic in
sincerity and incompetency and pro-
voked much enthus iasm.
The Republicans of Pennsylvania
never entered upon a campaign with
more enthusiasm and with higher hopes
of an overwhelming victory at the polls.

pENRosE NAILS DEspIcABLE LIE

Philadelphia, Aug, Ex-senator
Penrose's open and straightforward
way of meeting the Archbold contribu
ton lie has thrown havoc into the
camps of his political enemies. They
find themselves left without a single
thread of argument that might re-
feet upon the personal character OF
the Republican candidate for United
States senator.
During the entire thirty years that
Senator Penrose has been in public
life those opposed to him have gone
to every extreme in an effort to find
something that might besmirch his
reputation for honesty and fair deal
ing. Failure met every such attempt
because the career of the man is an
open book containing nothing that
should be concealed, explained or de.
Tended.
Two years ago the Penrose haters
decided that something would have to
be done to at least put dent into the
splendid reputation for honor and hon.
esty possessed by the senior senator
from Pennsylvania. They went back
over all the campaigns he participated
in for the past twenty years, investi.
gated all his movements and found
nothing on which to launch their cam.
paign Of defamation but a check which
passed from John d. Archbold to Sen.
ator Penrose as a contribution to the
Republican campaign of 1904, when
Senator Penrose was state chairman.
This was eagerly seized upon and
the transaction so twisted as to give
the impression that Senator Penrose
committed a wrong in accepting this
money for the election of President
Roosevelt. The strange part of this
despicable conspiracy against Senator
Penrose is the part played in 1t by
members of the Washington party who
are followers of Colonel Roosevelt, the
only beneficiary of the Archbold con.
tribution.
Instead of treating the falsehood
with silence, as his enemies expected
he would, Senator Penrose has never
hesitated to explain the transaction
from beginning to end, with the re.
suit that the wicked movement has
fallen fiat. That reputable newspapers
have no sympathy with this underhand
scheme to injure Senator Penrose is
seen from the following clear and con.
else editorial from the Philadelphia
Inquirer of Aug. "a:

CORNERSTONE LAID.

Beautiful weather and good roads
favored the congregation of St. RaphaePs
Church in Springfield last Sunday and
gave them an attendance at the cere-
monies Of the laying Of the cornerstone
that was astonishing in its numbers.
Nearly twenty automobiles went up
from New Ulm alone and from every
direction the church members came to
witness the solemn services Of the dedi-
cation Of the foundation of the new
structure which is to cost in the neighbor-
hood of $4,000.
Services were arranged with a view to
having as many of the visiting clergy as
possible take part. Rev. Fir. Schlinkert
of New Ulm oficiated at the laying Of
the cornerstone and delivered the Ger
man address. His subject was The
Religious Purpose Of the Church There
were three addresses in English, one by
Rev. J. J. Klein Of Sleepy Eye, one by
Rev D. Moran Of st. Peter and one by
Rev. Fey Of st. Raphaels.

MAN HUNT AT MADELIA.

Not since the days OF the Younger
Bros. have citizens of Madelia been
up in arms as they were last Saturday
afternoon, when some twenty-five or :
thirty men shouldered rifles and shot
guns and hurried to slough near Perth
to roundup a couple of desperate
negroes who had fired upon two Omaha
brakemen who had refused to grant them
free passage in box car. Matt Johnson
located the coons, who were hiding in the
slough, and when they saw the posse,
and realized what it meant, they sur
rendered and were brought to Madelia.

perienced a painful accident last Sunday
morning, while at work setting up corn
picking machine. Two men were as
sisting in lifting heavy part and when
they let it fall, the corner slid down his
leg, cutting an ugly cash. The accident
occurred at Hanley Falls and he took a
train to Glencoe from Granite Falls. His
son, Banker A. ]. Schnobrich of New
Germany, being informed Of the accident,
met his father at Glencoe and brought
him here in his auto. Mr.. Schnobrich

RULES OF EXHIBITS.

Director Critchett sends us circu-
lar concerning the work done by the State
Teachers Employment Bureau of which
he is the head. The Bureau was es-
tablished during the spring of 1913 and
up to October LIST, 1914, 9O4 teachers had
registered and during the same period
584 teachers were placed at salaries
ranging from $3.50 to $500 per year, by
far the greater number Of them receiving
salaries in excess Of $500 per year. I'm
like the agencies which are in business for
the good of the agencies, the State Agency
charges no commission on salaries paid
to teachers for whom they find positions.
The only charge made is registration
fee of $500 and this entities applicant
to the services Of the Bureau for one year.
This leaves the Bureau free to act as the
best interests of teacher and school de-
mand instead of making it a point of
financial benefit to the agency to place
a teacher regardless Of his or her fitness
for the position that offers. It also
works to the financial good Of the teacher
in that she does not have to hand over
big percentage Of her earnings to pay for
securing the position. Any one wishing
further information concerning the work
Of the Bureau can secure it by writing
to Mr.. Critchett, Dept. Of Education.

TAKES WATCH-LEAvES MONEY

Mystery surrounds the disappearance
of watch and razor from the living
rooms of John Polta in the Grussendorf,
formerly Rudolph, Block Saturday after
noon. What adds to the mystery is the
fact that $27.00 in money, a gold bracelet,
gold rings and other trinkets that were
lying on the dresser from which the
watch and razor had been stolen we're not
disturbed. The loss of the articles in
question was not noticed by the Poltas
until about eight o'clock in the evening
and they Immediately notified the police.
Acting Chief Herzog and Night Watch
man Emmerich reported at once and
made thoro search of the premises, but
were unable to discover any clue. The
window screen showed no signs of
having been tempered with nor did the
doors show that any force had been
employed to gain entrance. Mrs. Polta
claims that she locked the rear door from
the inside before she left her home thru
the front door leading to Minnesota
Street. Two other doors leading from
the outside into the building were opened
and the police are of the opinion that the
party who carried away the watch and
razor entered the building thru one of
them and gained admittance to the
Polta living rooms thru the rear door of
the Polta apartments. In their opinion
Mrs. Polta forgot to lock the door from
the inside as she had intended to do and
the thief had really no trouble at all to
get into the rooms. They are strengthen
ed in their views by the fact that a
daughter of Jos. Koehler who lives in
the same building saw man in the back
yard about four o'clock in the afternoon
and also saw him pass into the building
thru one of the rear doors. She did
not see him leave the place.
Mr.. Polta has his name engraved in
the watch. Why the thief should
overlook the money and valuable trinkets
is puzzling the police quite a little and
they have SO far been unable to find a
satisfactory explanation, but they have
not given up hope that they will be able
eventually to solve the mystery and
catch the thief.

Capt. j. Vanderhorck of Minneapolis
who is "a years young arrived in the city
Monday evening for one days visit
with old friends. He says he felt q
strong desire to see New Ulm and some
of the old friends once more before he
sets out upon the long journey, and So
he simply packed up and came. Capt.
Vanderhorck saw service in the 9Th
Minnesota and in spite of his advanced
years the Captain is mentally well
preserved and takes keen interest in
things. While in the city he attended a
meeting of the Novelty Electric Com
pany OF which he is a stakeholder.
Monday evening he enjoyed pleasant
visit with Pater Mack, julius Berndt and
3. Marschner, who are also old timer
IN the State. Capt Vanderhorck claims
that he was in St. Paul when the FIRST
OF the New Ulm settlers went thrurhere
in 1854.

SILVERY TONCUED ORATORS
URGE PASSAGE OF AMEND
MENT THREE.
WEATHER AND ROADS ARE IDEAL
FOR TRIP OVER B. AND Y.
TRAIL.

Black and Yellow Trail boosters arrived
in the city yesterday morning half hour
earlier than the scheduled hour, quite
number of citizens were at the Groebner
corner early enough to listen to short
addresses from some of the prominent
people in the party. Judge Loren Cray
was master of ceremonies and introduced
Pres. G. A. Ottomeyer of the Commercial
Club who extended to the visitors a
hearty welcome on behalf of the club and
Mayor Fritsche welcomed them on behalf
of the city.
Senator Elwell, author of the Elwell
law under which State Rural Highway
No. 81 is being built, spoke briefly on the
law which he fathered and in conclusion
urged every one present to vote for
Amendment No. 3. The purpose of this
amendment is to authorize the State to
construct roads, bitches, fire breaks
through and around unsold state school
and swamp lands, and a $25O,OOO re-
volving fund, realized and kept up from
the sale Of such lands, is to be set apart
for such purpose.
Engineer Cooley Of the State Highway
Commission stated that the commission
would do everything in its power to aid
in a financial way any movement for
better roads. He admonished his hearers
to remember, however, that it is not
sufficient alone to build roads according
to plans and specifications as prepared
by the commission, but is absolutely
necessary as well to keep the roads in
repair. In the course Of his remarks he
stated that some of road that the boosters
had travelled over between Mankato
and New Ulm showed plainly that repair
work had not been kept up as it should
have been.
John Deets, Secy, of the Southern
Development League outlined the posi-
bilities Of the great and only Black and
Yellow Trail. He stated that this trunk
road when once completed from Chicago
to the Yellowstone National Park would
bring thru this section of the country a
larger number of tourists than we have
any conception Of at the present time
and that this would unquestionably
mean increased business. He referred
to the pleasant visit he had some months
ago in the city when he was present at
the editorial convention. He spoke in a
clear voice and could be heard and under
stood for blocks.
The Mankato boosters left the Elks
club corner in Mankato at 8:15 o'clock
and arrived in New Ulm at $50. There
were 20 cars in all. Most Of them
carried the name of the owner and the
business he is in and others carried the
good roads legend. Among the boosters
was our former citizen, George W. Scherer.
Quite number of ladies were in the
party. The boosters were met at the
CORTLAND bridge by six local cars and
escorted to the city and the same cars
went with them as an escort as far as
Sleepy Eye, the next stopping place.
Several cars from Sleepy Eye came down
to New Ulm and returned with the
boosters. The weather was ideal, the
roads in splendid condition and the trip
to Tracy and back must have proved a
delightful one for all participants.
