New Ulm review. (New Ulm, Brown County, Minn.) 1892-1961, 1915-10-13

The first meeting of the County
Commissioners of which there is any
record was held September 1, 1856,
and the County was then divided in
to five election districts. TIE first
District Court was held in the Court
House by Judge A. G. Cha tfeld, Sep
TENDER %, 1857 and September 25th
of the same year four school districts
in New Ulm was opened December
II, 1857 with August Westphal as
teacher. There was a total enroll
ment of "a pupils
October 7, 1858, the County was
divided into the following townships:
New Uln, Cottonwood, Madelia,
Linden, I4eavenworth, Milford, Red
wood, Pejutazihi and Lynd. This
work was done by Jacob Brust and
John Resoft who had been commits
stoned by the Governor of the State
for this work. September l, 1850,
Brown County contained 1851 square
miles, had a population of $3.50 and

in the house of J. F. Burns, October
18th of the same year. At meet
ing of the Board of County Commits
sioners held Jan. 9, 1873 North Star
was set apart and the first election
was held at the house of Henry He
welt. In April 1874 at a meeting
held in Bashaw, this Town was duly
organized. The last Town to organ
ize was Stately which was ushered
into existence at meeting held at the
house of William H. Fox March 10,
1879. BY the foundation of Watonwan
and Redwood Counties Brown County
was reduced to its present size.
New Ulm is the county seat and has
always enjoyed this distinction. The
next largest city in the County is Sleepy
Eye situated in Home Township. It
was laid out by Thomas Allison June
Fl, 1872 and Incorporated as village
in February, 1873. The name was
later changed to Lorenzo but was soon
changed back to Sleepy Eye. In 1877
the village of Burns was surveyed and
New Ulm review. (New Ulm, Brown County, Minn.) 1892-1961, 1915-10-13

laid out and the name changed to
Springfield May IA, 1880. This is
the tnird largest municipality in the
County. Other villages are Comfrey,
Golden, Evan and Ranska and the
townsites of Essig, Searles and Godahl.
Brown County is distinctively
milling center. With three Touring
mills in New Ulm, one in Sleepy Eye
and one in Springfield, our County is
in position to supply thousands of
people with a grade Of flour that may
have some equals but no superiors.
Barring Hennepin County which has
the big mills at Minneapolis, there is
no other County in the State that has
a combined milling capacity equal to
that of Brown County. The produc-
tive soil in this and neighboring Coun-
tries, with it's bounteous crops of small
grain, furnished the initial inducement
for the establishment of the original
milling plants on small scale which
have developed to such magnificent

Town Of Eden was organized April

which held it's first town election April
7, 1868 and Prairieville followed suit

son. June 7th of the same year Lake
Hanska held it's first town meeting
at the house of A. w. Peterson.
On the 23d day of the same month
Albin organized it's own town govern
ment. Mulligan was the next Town

business grew to such proportions
that it was necessary for Mr.. Brown
to secure aid in looking after it and

industries that we can and do point
with pride to them.
Brown County is located in the most
fertile section of the state. Practically
all of the soil is rich, black loan with
clay subsoil; the best kind of soil for
diversified farming. Brown County in
the early days raised only small grain,
but has adjusted itself to changed con-
ditions and today the corn crop receives
fully as much consideration and at, en-.
ton as the wheat crop or even more.
From mere wheat-raising county it
has developed into stock-raising COM
munity and there is at least one, if not
more than one creamery in every towr-
ship, producing wealth for the farmers.
There is no class of citizens in our state
today more prosperous than the Brown
County farmer and his prosperity Is
in tie up-to-oate and modern
stores established in all our centers of
trade.
Altho the price of land has gone up
within the past four years,
farm lands here are comparatively
!: leap when the quality of the soil and
lie prevailing prices in other states
a:e considered and should prove very
attractive to prospective settlers here.

SCH DOL ADVANTAGES IN NEW
ULM

Elsewhere in this issue is described the
High School and Grade School system of
the city. In addition to the public
schools there are two large parochial
schools which conduct regular classes the
sane as the public schools and there. are
smaller classes in religious instruction as
well. There is also a denominational
college which is attended mostly b. pu-
pills from out of the city and state but
New Ulm review. (New Ulm, Brown County, Minn.) 1892-1961, 1915-10-13

which is also attended by number of
young men from the city. This college,
DR.. Martin Luther College, is, as it's
name would suggest, affiliated with the
Lutheran Church and is a preparatory
school for teachers of parochial schools
and also for those who will later attend
some theological institute.
One other institution of learning, bit
of quite different sort, is the Turner
Gymnastic School. The Turner Society
employs teacher of bodily culture the
year round and during the ordinary school
year he holds daily classes at which all tie
children of the city are welcome to be rres-
ent and learn how to develop their bodies
by proper exercise. Needless to say tt is
school is more willingly attended than any
of the other institutions of learning.

WOMAN SAYS STORY SHE TOLD
GRAND JURY WAS FALSE

Mrs. Isadore Wexler, wife of the
head of the burglar trust" took the
stand yesterday for the defense in the
trial of Police Captain Storen and his
aids, accused of taking brides. She
called herself a liar several times and
claimed her testimony before the
grand jury, that she had seen her
husband give money to Capt Storen,
was false.
She accused States Atty Hoyne's
men of framing" the case with her
and claimed that swell suite in the
Bradley hotel, $25 a week and a
charge account in department store
was the price offered to get her to tell
the same story which she related to
the grand jury and which resulted in
the indictment of Capt Storen and
Serg'ts Weisbaum and Both.

BRYAN ISSUES STATEMENT IN
REGARD TO NOTE

Washington, June II. - Former
Sec'y of State William ]: Bryan is
sued the following statement today:
81 am glad to note the change in
the tone of the press ia regard to the
note to Germany. From the time the
papers began to publish forecasts
down to yesterday the lingo editors
have been predicting that the matter
would be dealt with with great firm
ness that Germany would be told
that there must be no more delay in
the acceptance of this country's de-
mands, etc. Instead of waiting until
the note was issued they took their
own conception in advance and col
ored it to suit their own purpose. 1t
is a relief to find the papers are en-
phasizing the friendly tone of the,
note and pointing out that it does not
necessarily mean war Something has
been gained if the warrior journalist
at last realizes that the country does
not want war, but that, on the con-
trary, it will support the president in
his efforts to find peaceful solution
of the difficult problem raised by the
use of the submarines against mer-
chantmen."

PROFESSIONAL BONDSMEN HIT
IN FUNKHOUSER PLAN
The knell of professional bonds
men in the morals court was sound
ed yesterday if a suggestion which
Major .Funkhouser made to Chief
Justice Olson was carried through.
He asked that girls arTaigned in the
court be allowed to sign their own
bonds.
A long campaign against the bonds
men in this court is the cause of the
majors action. Men who were
friendly with the officers that made
arrests in morals cases were taking
hundreds of thousands out of the
pockets of girls caught.
AS the system now operates girl
arrested on Saturday for soliciting
must stay in Jail until Monday morn

She may be innocent and get q
