New Ulm review. (New Ulm, Brown County, Minn.) 1892-1961, 1917-07-18

It seems to me that now is the time
for the citizens to show that they app
preciate the work that YOUNGSTERS
Band has done in the past and especially
recognize the sacrifices that have been
made by Capt. Hofmeister personally
and give him and his co-workers that
cheerful support that will make them
forget the contumely that has been
heaped upon them and convince them
that the people want them to continue
in the good work. If this is not done
soon and effectively we may wake up
some fine morning to find that Hof-
meister's Band is a thing of the past.
with no chance whatsoever of resurrect-
ing it and getting together again the men
who for the past fifteen years have put
New Ulm on the musical map of this
country.
In saying kind word in favor of
Capt. YOUNGSTERS Band I do not wish
to convey the impression that 1 do not
also appreciate the good work that is
being done by the Union Concert Band.
The majority of this band are beginners
and lack the years of training but they
are proving by their weekly concerts
that they are gaining in efficiency right
along and they too should have the
encouragement and support of the
citizens in general.

1NGRATITUDE oRWHAT?

To the Editor of the New Ulm Review.
AL those who were fortunate enough
to hear the open air concert given by
YOUNGSTERS Band on Minnesota Street
last Friday evening went away fully
satisfied and convinced that the members
of the old Second Regiment Band, now
YOUNGSTERS Band, have lost nothing of
their musical ability but have on the
contrary improved and are furnishing
better grade Of music today than they
have ever produced in the history of
the bands existence. The citizens of
New Ulm until about a year ago were
practically unanimous in their opinion
that the band was an asset to the city
and that we had every reason to feel
proud to have such musical organiza-
ton in our midst.
When however the unfortunate Mexi-
can trouble arose which called into
active service the militia of the land,
including the Second Regiment Band,
movement was started to destroy the
band itself just because the majority
of the members of the band on account
of their age, physical incapacity and
other valid reasons, refused to take the
dual oath and they were roundly abused.
In spite Of the fact that Capt. Hofmeister
went to the front with two of his sons

Politician Is Busy

Carlos Avery, state game and fish
warden, may be playing a well-lald
political game, and then he may not
Mr.. Avery, however, is shrewd politi-
clan, and several interested parties have
their suspicious at this writing. Mr..
Avery, a few weeks ago, notified several
Mankato parties that he had secured the
consent of the federal Bureau of Biological
Survey to have Swan lake in Nicollet
county visited by Henry C. Oberholser
to make a survey Of the lake and in
yestigate bird life there.
And this is where the fine political
hand Of MIR. Avery is seen. The com
missioners of Nicollet county have been
petitioned by large number of farmers
in the vicinity of the lake to have the
water lowered some four feet, which it is
figured, will reclaim several thousand
acres of valuable agricultural land.
This is opposed by bunch of Mankato
and other sportsmen, who wish to pre-
serve the hunting grounds around the
lake, that their sport of few weeks
each year may not be interfered with.
Mr.. Avery was appointed to his present
position by Governor Hammond. His
term is about to expire; he is candidate
for re-appointment under Governor
Burnquist. It is quite probable that he
considers the influence of the sportsmen
of this vicinity of much greater value
than that of a score or more of Swan
lake farmers.
1t might be wise for the farmers and
Others interested in retaining all of
this valuable land to get busy with the
governor before Mr.. Avery has carried
his little political scheme too far.

The "Dusty" Missouri

Years ago heavily and richly cargoed
river steamers, which were in fact
Floating palaces" set out from St.
Louis and other river ports, for the
"gold and copper diggin's" of Montana,
and came back with heavy loads Of the
fruits of the miners toll in the fields
of Montana. In those days most of the
traffic between Kansas City, Omaha and
other Missouri river towns, was con-
Quoted by stern and sidewheel steamers.
From that time on the vagaries and
eccentricities of the Missouri river have
afforded much material for alleged witty
sayings. The big, muddy stream has
not changed it's ways since the decline

and did his full duty in creating a new
band out OF the raw material which was
given him that was credit not only to
himself but to his Regiment, this, in
itself, seems to have made no difference
in the attitude of some people towards
the band and even to the leader himself.
Since Capt. Hofmeister's return home
nothing has been done on the part of the
citizens to show their appreciation of his
patriotism which prompted him and his
two sons to take the dual oath. There
has been nothing done in any way, shape
or manner on the part of the citizens
to show their appreciation of the efforts
that he has put forth ever since the
Second Regiment was organized some
fourteen or fifteen years ago and he has
a right to feel that we, as citizens, are
ungrateful to say the least. But the
people of New Ulm are not ungrateful.
They are m erely slow in showing their
appreciation at times. The members
of the Second Regiment Band have
always been lovers of music for music's
sake and instead of disbanding when
their leader went to the front came to-
gether to practice until Capt. Hofmeister
came back home from the Mexican
border to again assume the leadership.
To show the high opinion they have of
their leader they now call themselves
Hofmeister's Band.
Because of their refusal to go to the
front they have been subjected to all
kinds of slurring remarks and they have
taken them all in good part without
hitting back and without becoming
embttered to such an extent that they
would be tempted to give up completely
their musical procivities. They have
furnished since their re organization two
free open air concerts and have shown
at all other time a spirit that they are
willing to keep up the band which has
given New Ulm a prestige thruout the
State. They hoped, no doubt, that thru
their unselfsh attitude sentiment
would crystalline that would compel
them to contin1e and secure them moral
and financial support, but up to this
date such support has been wofully
lacking.
There are any number of mlnicipali-
ties, that, if they could get such an
efficient band for their community as
Hofmeister's Band, would be only too
glad to pay from thousand to two
thousand dollars year toward it's sup
port. We are doing absolutely nothing.
How long Hofmeister's Band can and
will continue under such conditions and
without the moral and financial support
of the citizens is of course a question.
This much is certain that as soon as they
are fully convinced that the citizens do
not appreciate their efforts, they will
Quickly disband and that will be the end
of the band of which we have been 50

''The Civil War was fought in order
that the Union might be preserved to
this time and thus give the Allies a
powerful united country to help them
in their present struggle against Ger
many" Such was the statement made
by the opening speaker at the National
Editorial Association at Minneapolis.
A strange sentiment, strange justifi-
cation for the terrible struggle of brother
against brother in the awful times half
a century ago. Has it really come to
that, that we Americans are ready to
admit that our one purpose in life, our
one excuse for being is that we may
furnish the men and munitions for the
needs of the corrupt nations of Europe
in their struggle against humiliation?
Are we ready to listen calmly while those
in high places mouth the phrases that
indicate to us our shameful position as
hewers of wood and drawers of water
for the nation which has always despised
us? England, who has always made a
mock of the American nation, looking
down upon us, now smiles ingratiatingly
mice doggie, good doggie," she says,
and we without the spirit of even a
mongrel pup, fawn upon the outstretched
hand and exhibit our great delight at
the patronage shown us, and smilingly
repeat the phrases furnished us by those
whose interests are served by making
the American believe he is assisting as
an equal with England in ''holy cause. -

"Mollison told him that was all that

Der and Mollison, instead of explaining
the situation to Col. Johnson, flew in a
rage, damned the band boys up and
down, and came to me and told me to
get the men in line. He, however, said
nothing to me about his having promised
any discharges or having given any, and
supposed, of course, that the delinquent
men were still members of the band and
were refusing to take the oath.

to assemble, so as to talk to them, and
