CITY | ELECTIONS I |, |; !, !
OFFER NO THRILL
PRESENT COUNCILLORS FILE
FOR REFLECTION WITH NO
OPPOSITION AS YET.
NEW WARD CANDIDATES ARE
FRANK NIEMANN AND
FRED HAMANN.

Harmony spelled with Capital
"H'' seems to prevail in New Ulm
this year so far as municipal politics
lis concerned. With only ten more
days left for the filing Of candidates,
for the various city offices there seems
to be little OF no stir anywhere and no
opposition manifested against the re-
election Of the present incumbents.
During the past week petitions were
circulated for DR.. L. A. Fritsche as
mayor, VIM. P. Backer, City Clerk
and Gottlieb Oswald for City Treasu-
rer. Hundreds of signatures were se-
cured and the petitions have since been
fled with the City Clerk. The present
City Justices and Constables it seems
do not think it necessary to get their
names on the ballot because they know
that enough Of the voters will write
in their names to secure their election.
. New Ward Candidates.
For the newly created fourth ward Of
New Ulm, Frank Niemann has filed a
petition for councillor for the period
Of two years and Fred Hamann has
filed his petition for election as alder
man Of that ward for one year. As far
as can be learned there is not and will
not be any opposition against these
aldermen, in the newly created ward.
All the outgoing councillors are candi-
dates for reelection and their petitions
have been circulated but as yet they
have not been filed. The outgoing al
dermen are Jerry B. Reardon, 1st
ward; Emil Mueller, William Lieb 3rd
ward. It was currently reported that
Otto Montgomery had been and was
circulating a petition for alderman Of
the 3rd ward. Some who claim to
know, state that Mr.. Montg gomery
will not be candidate for alderman at
this time and if that is the case and
no other candidates appear there vii
be no real election on election day
It will simply be a matter Of having a
sufficient number of interested citizens
90 to the polls and make known Their
choice and incidentally the choice o.
all Others who do not find it convenient
to attend the election.

DISTRICT ATTORNEYS AT
BANQUET REFUSE TO TALK
Prefer to Enjoy Splendid Feed
@ Provided by Dakota House and
Can the Shop Talk Until Time
When Nothing Better Offers.

Saturday afternoon anu evening JIG
attorneys Of the Ninth Judicial District
met in annual convention in this city.
It was pleasant get-together meeting
for the exchange Of opinions regarding
the ethics of the profession and also on
the political and economic conditions
Of the country.
A splendid banquet was served to
the lawyers at the Dakota House at
Z o'clock in the evening. Last year
there was program Of toasts but this
year for various reasons it was decided
to forego the talk-fest, and, as one OF
the attorneys said they had come to-
gether for the purpose Of having agood
feed and not to rack their brains about
the welfare Of the law profession or
anything else. It is barely possible
that they decided to save their skill
for the coming campaign when, I. no a1
doubt, most Of them will be on the
Istump educating the humble citizen
so that he will know how to vote IN
telligently. The feed was certainly
thoroughly enjoyed by all and until
g o'clock they sat about the lobby Of
the hotel swapping yarns and telling
jokes new and superannuated.
The evening was spent at the Henry
Somsen home on North Broadway
where the business meeting was held
The chief business was the election q
toficers for the ensuing year. A. G
Dolliff Of Redwood Falls was elected
president, Geo. T. Olsen Of St. Peter
vice president and Roland p. Matthews
of Marshall, was reelected secretary

.CELEBR RATION PLAN
NOW TAKING FORM
MEETING. OF JUNIOR PIONEER
I EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE TO
START WORK.
DECIDE TO ARRANGE EVENING
/ PROGRAMS, LEAVING DAYS
FOR PRIVATE PLANS.

The first step toward celebrating the
50th anniversary Of the Indian Massa-
ere, during the month Of August this
year, was taken at a meeting held at
the commercial club rooms last We'd
nesday afternoon when Dr.. ]. P. Graft
was elected president, Otto F. Oswald,
vice president, .Adolph G. .EMeile, secre-
tary and Alfred J. Vogel, treasurer of
the executive committee which was
appointed by President Albert Stein
hauser some time ago, and upon whom
will devolve the making Of the neces-
|sary arrangements for the celebration.
One Hundred Committeeman.
It having been decided at the annual
meeting that committee OF 100Abe
selected to make all necessary arrange
ments for the celebration, fifty from
the ranks Of the Junior Pioneers and
fifty from outside, this matter was the
first to be considered by the executive
committee and disposed Of by deciding
to have each of the committee men
select twenty names and at a meeting
to be held March II the names will be
presented and the selection OF the COM
mittee Of 100 completed.
In a general way also the magnitude
of the celebration was discussed and
Iif it is at all possible a celebration
similar to the one we had ten years ago
when the city celebrated the Golden
Jubilee OF the Indian Massacre will
be arranged for. To have something
to 90 on, Secretary NMeile was requested
to procure the necessary data from, the
5Oth. anniversary celebration to enable
the. present committee to form their
own views and ideas Of what must be
done to make the coming celebration on
las complete a success as that OF the
50th anniversary was.
Less Noise, More Quiet Pleasure,
In the course Of the discussion it
seemed quite apparent that the com
mittee does not favor any. big cele-
| Ibrations during the day except for one
or two occasions. It was agreed that
the Home-comers should be given an
opportunity to get together with their
former friends and even if a whole
week should be devoted to the cele-
bration, most Of the days should be
used for small picnic parties and other
get-together meetings.
Evening Programs.
It was thought advisable, however,
/ to arrange for programs during the
#Ievenings to attract visitors to the
/ city. and to give the home coming
1 guests an opportunity to be entertained
lin the evenings. President Albert
! lSteinhauser who attended the meeting
was called upon to give his views and
ideas sas to possible features OF the
celebration and he briefly mentioned
q some Of the things that in his opinion
Ishould be done to make the celebration
success. No action was taken on
any Of his suggestions and none will
Il be taken until the whole committee
i has been selected and the work divided
4 up among the different sub-com-
! mittees.

Saturday and Sunday, the 56th
Tagsatzung of the Minnesota Turnbe-

Paul, st. Anthony Of Minneapolis and
New Ulm was held at the Club Rooms
of Turner Hail. Considerable bust,
ness was transacted and at different
times the debates became quite spirit

ung, Turntag was held Sunday after.

youths took part. ssss3 - N, sa
State Field Day Planned.
During the past year an organiza-
tion has been perfected including all
societies in the State that; take up
physical training work and the name
lof Omitted Gymnastic & Athletic
Association has been adopted for this
new organization This organization
expects to arrange Field Day during
the month of June which will be held
leither on Harriet Island or in one of
| the parks in the City Of St. Paul.
Quite number Of delegates present
Ewere opposed to an alliance with other
physical training organizations, con-
tending that the Turnvereins would
NATURALLY suffer because in preparing
Ifor field day events altogether too much
drilling will be required of those who
take part in the contests, reducing the
attendance Of others in the classes and
thereby doing irreparable harm to the
societies. The discussion at times
Twas very animated but no definite
Istand was taken because the meet has
|already been arranged and it was
thought best to await the outcome Of
the field day before taking any action.
Mental Training Urged.
Resolutions were adopted urging
/ the members Of the societies to form
i sections that will take up mental act
livities in the various societies such as
music, dramatic arts, ETC., and if pos
sible arrange for mental contests at
the same time that the Turntags fol
!, physical training are held.
