I l-(- i tt z+ \i ^w- Continued from First Page, Claeap Is one of the attractive paintings on our main thoroughfare and it is fol lowed by CHARLEY, not to be left out. Tom, Dick, Harry and,,John go there to purchase. Ten years ago S. Friedmann estab lished at Elgin, 111., a business institu tion which has prospered on account of his fair and square dealing to such an extent that to-day we find it pos sessing 13 branches with headquarters at 124 North Wells street, Chicago, where also all the clothing sold by them is manufactured. One of the best equipped and undoubtedly the best managed clothing establishment in the city of New Ulm is that over which S. Loewenthal Esq. presides. In quality and quantity of goods, and in rates thereof the house is worthy of a con stant crowd. Mr. Loewenthal is a man of business energy and undoubted abil ity, and ought to be, seeing that he and commerce have been closely allied since,he was a child of but 13 years. He is a genial, jolly good fellow with whom allfindit pleasant to deal. Dr. Kutilinan has been a resident in New Ulm since December 1878, and has gained an ex tensive lucrative office practice. The professional gentleman is a graduate of the celebrated University of Michi gan and in the literary department of Science and Arts he also gained his honors. Dr. Kuhlman is not only a physician but also a chemist therefore of acknowledged ability. In many phases of the physical he has been very successful and it is said in from 2 to 6 hours the most inveterate tape worms have been removed by hisskill. The wiiter discovered the doctor busy infittingin liquid and vial shape a well apportioned laboratory which contains medicines and surgical instru ments. Dr. Kuhlman is quite an acquisition to our professional ranks and the citi zens of this surroundings ought to be congratulated upon his arrival, as he is an honor to profession and tosociety. The gentleman has brought a family with him and the individual members are worthy of the highest lespect. It is highly worthy of appreciation the fact that Dr. Kuhlman buys articles in a crude state, and in toilet articles and concentrations his goods are ne-ial cessai ily being of home manufacture, conscicutiousI known to be pure and good. Drug* and Medicine* Are in part supplied to this com munity by Jos. Bobleter, who ownes one of the best establishments of the kind in Minnesota, He also keeps a splendid stock of druggists' sundries, glass, oil & paints, books & stationery, wall paper, notions and musical mer chandise, and his prices are as low as the lowest. Clins. Wagner In 1849 arrived in the United States from Germany when but a youth. He located in Louisville, Kentucky where hard work and eneigy brought him forward to be recognized as a being of promise. In Cleveland,Ohio. his merits also became appieciated and as a mechanic he gained his leputation. In 1856 he became one of New Ulms citi zens and with exception of compulsory absence amid which may be mentioned as cause. "Wounds received during the Indian outbreak,when healing and con valescence took place atMankato." The grand institution over which Mr. Wag ner governs is one of the most com pletely stocked furniture establish ments in this or neighboring counties. With all that can embellish or comfort A home the institution is complete. The sewing machine department is worthy of special remark as including the Singer, the Davis and Wheeler & Wil son home ornaments. In business the gentleman is in the front rank and in society he holds an equal place. Officially he has been County Commissioner for ten years. During the same period of time as Jus tice of the Peace he gave forth true advocacy of righteousnessand as Judge of Probate his discrimination for 10ding years became a pronounced fact. Charles Wagner Esq. is at home and abroad an indication of New Ulms worth. HI. Mullen Is the prince of hardware merchants. His large building is stocked from cel lar to garret with shelf and heavy hardware, carpenter and farming tools, building paper, table and pocket cut lery, etc., and his prices are alwavs within bounds. He is also agent of some of the best agricultural machin ery manufactured, among which we may mention J. I. Case & Co's. thresh ers, the celebrated Osborne self-bind ers, reapers and mowers, the Elward harvesters and binders, McSherry & Fountain City seeders, Furst & Bradly hay rakes, plows and cultivators and Fish Bio's, wagons and buggies. He employs a corps of oompetent and gentlemanly agents and the extent of his business may be judged when we state that his sales in one season alone amounted to $90,000. The United States Land Office At this place is ably presided overby Hon. C. C. Goodnow, Receiver, and Maj. C. B. Tyler, Register. Both of these gentlemen are well known throughout this and neighboringStates for their promptness in answering all communications on matters per taining to government lands, &c. George Schneider is an 1850 mar. as to location. Anoth er showing of Germanic strength. Fromlove of parents and without fi nancial power he has raised himself. Many parts has he played to accom plish his present position and his garbs have been various, butagreeing. They were energy responsibility and neces sarily ensues pleasantness and peace. Mr. Schneider is well liked, and whyhorse mot? Joseph Schneider* A born German, became a citizen of the United States in 1850 and located In New Orleans. The omnibus was governed by him and in mournful pro cession as an undertaker he was promi nent. When the war broke out he came and wisely located in New Ulm. For a time hein tive worker was recognized as ac- a machine shopan A brick yard alsosaw his power, and parts of Schell's brewery shows his skill. In office he proved himself a conscientious Indian Agent, and as a business man he is now acknowledged as being po pular. ONE OF the most blessed presents given us is that of sight and how pitiable is the loss thereof. About two years ago N. A. Mceller located in New Ulm and has added a considerable strength to bus iness worth. With sight, spectaclesare seen & enlightenment given tothermo meter strength. In scientific instru mentality the gentleman has given many aid. A new feature in town is the horse power which Mr. Mceller has introduc ed to works which he presides over as a thorough TURNER. In all mannerof wood work as to moulding and curva ture his ability with the aid of rip, scroll and cross cut saws is shown in the manufacture unsurpassed. In quality of material, in design and in finish N. A. Mceller is worthy of cele brity, -The Eagle Mill Co. was organized in 1855 and has been a prosperous institution. The structures do not give the impressionary ideas which eventually ensue after entering the portals. The constant hum, thethe never ceasing activity, the white men, the white product and the snowy-like covered walls give the showing of pur ity and industry. With all the aids caused by mechan ical invention and unexcelled manage ment those mills produce over 100 barrels of the "support of life" per day. The smooth running engine of 05 horse power propels 5 run of buhrs including 44 feet in diameter and one 2 feet for feed purposes. The orands which have stood against the criticisms of the highest inspectorship are by some people called the "Sur prise" and others say the "Fancy". The millershowever callitthe PATENT PROCESS, and the "Straighf'brandis as celebrated at home as the "Baker's Flour'' is abroad. Shipmentsare made chiefly to Chicago and Buffalo. Thefineelevator owned by the com pany has a capacity of 20,000 bushels, and the warehouse occupied measures 00x00 feet. The Saw mill owned has a capacity of 0000 feet per day. Our readers will recognize the mag nitude of the institutions and now the writer will give a few facts in reference to the captains: J. Pfenninger is a native of Switzer land and has been a resident of the United States since 1855. The gentle man hasbeena most progressionary one not only as a city dad but in agricultur al manufacture and also in society he has been and is a leading light. His fine farm at Sleepy Eye is wide awake property, Werner Boesh Esq. isalso from the land of TELL and has been an honored resident of this vicinity since 1857. In mechanism he hashis skill and as finanlonging cier and business man of ability, he not only shows capacity in the office of the company but in the council of the city. The gentleman owns a splendid prairie-land farm and has the interests of this section at heart. Geo. Dcehne Esq. hails from the principality of Waldeck and is an ener getic and forcible business man. In 1801 the gentleman located here. He is, as the other partners, a self-made man. Mr. Doehne took the place of the late lamented Mr. Myer, who was one of our business magnatesand mostgen of men. In the institution are many mon of merit and the namesof a few areO. W. Hagen who as an accountant and a gentleman isfitto occupy the position, which he does commercially and social ly. The millers, Geo.&Carl bchmidt, are "to the manor born,"and the engineer, Nicholas Picker, is an embodiment ot ability. It is in place herein to mention that this institution was the actual founda tion of New Ulm, when the grand hills and deep valleys gave view to but lone ly travellers, or were tramped over by mocassin those mills caused the whirr of industry, the sign of civilization and the bell ring to progress. The Ne Vint City MILL Co. The mill owned by the above named company, was caused to be erected in 1874 by the present management. The grand building is one of the monu ments to our industry andto the energy and power of Italia's sunny shores and Teutonic fruitful plains. H. A. SubiliaEsq. was born in Italy and has been a resident of the United atates 30 years and during his career merchandising andfinancieringhasGermanic been his forte. His innate power, ad ministrative ability and energetic force have caused him to become that which he isone ofourleading men. The gentle man was at one time cashier ot the 1st. National Bank of New Ulm. Was county commissioner, and as deputy State Auditor hegave evidence ot the ability with which he is so highly en dowed. He has done a great deal for our county in erecting manufacturing institutions, building business houses, making homes and in all progressive spirit. John Bellm Esq. is one of those plod men who never quits. He is me chanicalinallthe term implies. A thor ough manager he loves and does his woik. Wealth with him causes no austerity or a feeling of superiority. Heis a man amid men. The mill which those gentlemen pos sess produces the finest grades of nom as represented in the qualities of their three brands "Patent" "Straight" and "Clear" which are shipped to Chicago, Buffalo, Philadelphia, New York and the hub of the Universe so called. With 5 run of buhrs4feet each in di ameter propelled by an engine of 00 horse power, the capacity is 130 barrels per millers day. This company gives employment to 18 men and is one of the most benefici ary institutions New Ulm possesses. It would be an injustice not to make special mention of Antoine Boncoeur Subilia, a young gentleman who gives every promise of a bright career. In the mill William Frank, John Benzin andLudwig Frank flourish as men of undoubted capacity in the manufacture of that of which there is nothing more substantial or so pure in the supply ment of man corporeal. 3villor fc f3cls.oior on January last established themselves in lumber business as such from title. Previous to 1870 Peter Scherer Esq. was the presiding genius of a fine mer cantile house occupying the property known as that of the Editor of the REVIEW and was partner of the lumber yard now described. Since 1800 the gentleman has been a merchant here. In 1853 he came from the nativity of Bavaria to theUnitedStates. Since 1872 he has been and is Treasurer of the Board of Education and is a "City Dad." He is able in business and most popular throughout this section. It may seem putting the cart before the to mention Jacob MullerEsq. after the aforenamed as the title is otherwise, but Scherer was the first man met. Jacob Muller Esq. is a na tive of Germany and has been a fur- theranceofNewUlmstrength eversince 1858. In wagon manufacture,in wheat dealing and in society he has been a leading light. The lumber yard which those gentlemen own carries all that is generally in wood considered build ing material, to the extent of 200,000 feet. Jacob Hottlng-er. It is nearly 25 years ago since the abovenamed gentleman locatedinNew Ulm. Underthe grandcommandof a Custer anda Sheridanhe was head-quarter sut ler. In the wide famed Gault House of Indianapolis hewasthegenialmanager. In Wholsale houses he has been the fi nancier and alwaysasnow a gentleman. THE MERCHANT'S HOTEL Is the leading house of the City. The fine frame structure is three stories in height and is one of the imposingbuild ings which cause the Main Mart to be attractive. The rooms are handsome ly furnished and the dining room is a haven of rest for the epicure or his brother who prefers quantity. Charles Brust is a most popular host and a cordial hail fellow. The^writer had the pleasure of meeting* Jacob Brust Esq., one of the most genial of menandone ofthe oldestsettlersof this vicinity. ^^t^ The Ponnorlvaatl* has been a house and an hotel for near ly 15 years but never was under better administrative power than within the last two years. The reasons given by numerous patrons become obvious when related. Mason W. Phelps, the proprietor,^ a born New Yorker, was educated with all the surroundings of hearts and homes near Watertown, New York. On a farm he gained the incultation of a knowledge therewith and a time appreciation of nature. 12 years ago he became a live citizen of this State and caused a farm to be cul tivated and in all manner of action he has shown himself to be progressive in spirit and action. The host of the Pennsylvania House is one of the most genial of men and cannot but be planted as the picture physically, mentally and morally of a landlord. The hotel is a frame struc ture which has given rest to 137 guests at one time and comfortably has given 00 individuals separate apartments. The dining hall is under the supervi sion of a Queen in culinary appointment in the person of Mrs. Phelps, a lady of refinement. The of fice gives introduction tc Mr. George Crouch, a gentleman far from being the proverbial hotel clerk, seeing that he lacks egotism but possesses courtesy and ability. The stabling department can give accommodation to over 50 head of the noble equine. The Penn sylvania House is justly recognized as one of the best $1.00 per day houses in the State. We regret to learn that Mr. Phelps will remove to Sleepy Eye to take charge of the Union House a bout May 1st. Brown County ank became organized in 1870. This bank ing institution is one* of the best de positories in the State and its manage ment cannot but be recognized as be to the titles of businessability, financiering power and capital at that. The fine banking house shows the taste of its managers. The institution can be introduced, and that properly, by a statement as to the men who hold the reigns. C. H. Chadbourn Esq., the President, is a President in all the term emplies. In reference to the institution a valu able point of information might be ac cepted that over a half a million of dollars owned by the directors says it is sound. R. W.Chadbourn Esq., the President of the 1st National Bank at Columbus, Wis.,is known as one of the best finan ciers in that State and is one of the strengths of this institution. For 30 years the gentleman has been a man of progress and action in the section which he commercially and socially honors. In Olmstead, Blue Eaith, Faribault and Brown counties he loans exten sively on real estate and heritable property. The Brown County Bank is a responsible institution but there is no better indication of the tact than in the management showing. C.H.Ross Esq. is a born banker. He has been schooled by theChadbourns who are re garded as Rothchilds of America.Geni al in manner, energetic in business and a man of thought C. H. Ross is worthy of the highest eulogy. The account ancy of the establishment is indebted to a considerable extent in itselegancy and rectitude to Mr. W. F. Setter, a born New Ulmite and inborn gentle man. The correspondents of the insti tution in New York are The Chase Nat'l. Milwaukee says The .National Exchange. St. Paul comes forward in strength with German Ame ricanism. Chicago says Northwestern National, and no better or more sound banking institutions exist than those quoted. Asa banking house in all the term implies "Biown County" can in real estate, mortgage accommodation, snip ing or general transaction do all that is required. No better posteript could be added to a banking article than the statement that every man connected with this institution is as others in the same manner of congregation respons ible not only as to their individual amount of connections but also even for all their worth, consequently the Bank mentioned can afford better se emlty than any other be it national or otherwise. OCR REGISTER is one in thought word and deed. A. F. Walton Esq. became the officiate a bout two years ago and has performed his duty to the entire satisfaction of the people and the gratification of all individuals who have called upon him officially and socially. He was elected to his second term last fall. He hascation been a thorough agriculturist andnow owns a fine farm in this vicinity. For eight years the gentleman has been a resident of this county and has alto ways shown discrimination and judge ment in every office held by him. As town clerk and as county commissioner he was popular, and as one of our lead ing citizens those sketches would be incomplete without a mention of the gentleman. To New Brunswick we are indebted for his nativity. THE CITY JUSTICE is R. Fischer Esq. a native of Baden, Germany, and a resident of thissection for 21 years. The honorable gentle man has been not only a beneficiary of this vicinity but also an authority in matters pertaining to the office of Re gister of Deeds which he held in 1801. As Judge of Probate he wasthe highly esteemed and as Justice of the Peace for 5 years he has exhibited ex* cellent judgement as shown in endorse ment by higher courts. As a manu facturer he owned and managed the Globe Flouring Mills, which were con sumed by fire in 1873, and in merchan dising he has also beenaprofessionist. During the war he was Lieut, of the 1st. Minnesota Battery of artillery, and now is City Judge, Deputy Audi tor and one of our representative men of business and society. NEW ULM AND VICINITY. Money to loan. See anothercolumn.

MONSY TO LOAjr.On good secur ity, in amounts not under *400, atte per cent. Interest Inquire of GEO. KUHLMAN. The inroad that is being made into our subscription list by the Sleepy Eye Wide Awake isalready being felt, Law* renceMauch of thatburg beingg^ffirstmade A serious runaway occurred near the City Mill last Saturday by which William J. Williams, anold man of be tween 55 and 60 years, of Cambria, Blue Earth county, was pretty severe ly hurt. He had brought a load of wood to the mill and after unloading he drove the wagon under the ware house extending from the mill to the railroad track, and the clatter made by the stakes of the wood rack strik ing against the joice of the warehouse scared the horses and they commenced to run throwingMr. Williams violently to the ground. In the fall the lines became entangled on his feet and he was dragged across the railroad track, the wagon in the mean time passing over him several times. On the other side of the track he became fred from the lines and rolled off the road into the ditch near the lamp post when he was picked up senseless and conveyed to the Pennsylvania House. Dr. Mul ler was summoned who alliviated the sufferings of the unfortunate man. The team after promiscuously strewing the wagon about was caught without do ing any further damage. SUGARY. Tke Ozbr*M Btmelo r. I wish to call the attention of all farmers to the Osborne Self-Binder, which is acknowledged to stand at the head and front of all machines of that class. Never since farm machinery has beenfirstintroduced has any machine made a recordor gained the world wide reputation in so short a time that this Binder has. I now have one set up in my store where an examination of its workings, as well as its simplicity can not fail to satisfy you of its Superior Merits over all others of its class, I have al so one, belonging to Willford Bushard, which was usedthrough the entire har vest last year and to-day is as good, as when itleft the shops. I will notr confront youwith bogus telegrams, of bogus trials, as some of our competi tors do, but will refer you with pleas ure, to the following named gentlemen in your own vicinity who used them last year and who will testify to all we claim: C. & F. Billsing, of Springfield, Brown Co. F. Heifran, West Newton. Willford Bushard, Lafayette. Athe nats Henle, Milford, who cutabout 100 acres of lodged and badly tangled grain in 1878. C. C. Coodnow, Receiv er of U. S. Land Office in New Vim, who says during all harvest his Binder missedbut2 bundles. One of the very importantadvantag es of this machine is, it requires no machinist or an expert to work it. With a boy to drive the team it is always ready and willing to do its work, and do it well. It will bind tight, whether the bundle is as small as yourfinger,or as large as a barrel. It uses less wire peracrethan any oth er binder made. It runs with perfect smoothness and does not jerk while binding or delivering the bundle. M.ltCLLBX. -tS** the to say "stop the REVIEW." Flags were displayed from all the public and several other buildings last Saturday in honor of Washington's birthday, and in the evening an enter tainment was given at Turner Hall in honor of the event. Flags were displayed from the build ing used for county offices last Friday evening and it was rumored that Blanch, had issued his first marriage license in 1879, but it turned out that the patriotic officers were merely pre paring for Washington's birth day. Ed. Dur.kel wishes to say to the peo ple of New Ulm and vicinty that he is now ready for buiness again and until further notice can be found inthe Pott building. Mr. Dunkel is an A No. 1 tailor and we bespeak for him the lib eral patronage of our citizens. Griswold & Quam's drug store at Marshall was burned on the 15th inst. under peculiar circumstances. Three times in one dayfirewas set before the attempt proved successful. Mr. Gris wold was arrested charged with the incendiary and the proof is pretty con clusive against him. Mr. John Gallaher.of Renville,would be much obliged if our Iberia corres pondent would give the name through the columns of the Review of the gal lant survivor of Ballaclava who graced the wedding festival at Mr. Fitzge rald's and drank the gobbler and atehas the beer and went through the ordeal without receiving a scratch. The attention of farmers and others is called to the Advertisement of the RobinsonMachine Worksat Richmond, Indiana. The Manufactory is one of the oldest in the country, and their purpose is to sell the best machinery at the lowest possible price forgood pay. Therefore do not buy an Engine, Thresher or Horse Power or other machinery, on the high price, long credit plan with high rate of interest until you have written to thisfirmfor their cash and short credit prices. The following communication has re ference to A. H. Hanscome the gentle man who so knowingly wrote up New Ulm a short time ago for publication in the Springvale (Me.,) Reporter: SPRINGVALE, Me. Feb. 18,1870. Ed. New Ulm REVIEW: Enclosed please find five cents for which send me a copy of your paper issued Wednesday, Feb. 12th. Mr. Hanscome wasdisliked here very much on his last stay, and was compelled to resign his charge in the church on ac count of trouble concerning women. He is a hard case. Truly yours, Members of the Board of trade and citizens generally held a meeting in Turner Hall last Friday evening totalk up the sugar question. Mr. Geo. Gil ley, of Butternut Valley, who takes a great interest in everything giving en lightment on the subject, was present and gave his experience as a syrup and sugar manufacturer, which former vo he hasfollowed forneighonto 20 yearsand has producedsomeof thebest syrup that it has ever been our lot to taste. The sugar theory is also new him but we dare say he has given the matteras much attention as anyharmoniously, other man in this State. Mr. Gilly ex* plained the Stuart process fully and from what he said we are convinced that it will never extensively be adop ted for the larger factories. The juice must be extracted and boiled within at least 48 hours after the cane is cut, which, of itself, would be a very seri ousmatterto regulateby a factory buy ingthe canefromthe farmers. It ispro posed, as near as we were able to learn the feelings of those in attendance at the meeting, to erect a small mill and give the matter a thorough test, and a committee was appointed to make an estimate of the costof machinery, &c, same to report to an adjourned meeting which will be held next Fri day evening at the same place. Wi RH Bingham, of Sleepy Eye, made us a pleasant call last Thursday eve* ning. Call again. Dr. Knapp, of Fort Ridgely, and Charley Nixon, of Hector Station, us pleasant calls last week, eg L Parker, one of Sleepy Eye's at torneys, spent a few hours in our city Monday evening. Dr. Wellcome, one of Sleepy Eye's physicians, was a welcome visitor at the Review office Monday. H. A. Subilia departed forthe east Monday morning.

Christ Salkowski is doing a railroad business, so to say. I dropped into his place of business the other day and was agreeably surprised to see the store crowded with customers. Geo. Knud son, the gentlemanly clerk, is always pleased to attend tlte wants of who ever comes along. I stepped into the Buck Horn saloon the other day and was surprised to see how nice and well the old pioneer, J. Hagemann, carried on his business. If any one wants a good glass of lager or a good cigar the Buck Horn is the place to go. Fritz Koehne, proprietor of the Uni on House, expects to go out of the hotel business about June 1st., and will thereafter devote his time to buying cattle. We are sorry to have Mr. Koehne go out of the hotel bus iness as he is a splendid good landlord. Christensen & Andersen shipped four car loads of cattle last Thursday, but not wishing to rideon the train convey ing their stock they remained behind intending to take the passengertrainon Friday morning, but Christensen says the passenger did not blow his whistle and he got left. He took the train on Friday evening to chase uphis stock. The masquerade ball given by Mr. Kimm last Saturday evening turned out to be one of the best ever given in Sleepy Eye.

Mr.John Vine lately brought from Olmsted Co. a fine Jersey bull. Every good animal introduced in our county is a source of increasing wealth. There is a good deal of epizootic or distemper among horses. Not,many fatal cases as yet, however. Our sympathies are with our fellow townsman Mr. J. Hopkins and family in their calamity by fire. From sad experience we know that it is hard to be burned out. Bad enough even in the summer, but it must be far worse in the winter. Now is the time to secure seed grain.

MULLIGAN Minn.,Feb'.' 19th. 1879. Editor Review. Having noticed that many correspondents are writing from different parts of the county giv ing the readers of the Review an acall count of the doings of their respective localities, we thought a few words from this part might no be uninterest ing. home little impiovements have been made in this pait duriug the past year. Quite a number of good farms have been opened up on R. R. lands, a num ber of dwelling houses have been built and everything seems to be pro gressingfinely.considering the misfor and disadvantages the farmeis have met with in the past few years What about our school next summer? Are we going to have any? The last regular meeting proved a decided fail ure. We would like to see those men have children growing up take moreinterest in the causeof education. Getting married seems to be upper most in the order of things now-a-days. There being several weddings duriug the past few weeks, among others were that of Mr. Byron Green to Miss Mary Schlagle. They took a trip to Newet Ulm a few days ago, and while there concluded to have the Nuptial not tied. Not without due premeditation, however. Mr. Andrew Zwaschka and Miss Catherine Dower were also made man and wife on the 18th inst. The wed ding festival and dance proved a very pleasant affair as will be acknowledged by all participating. The boys decided to have a little sport a few evenings ago. After hav ing gathered together all the old cow bells, tinpans. horns and rusty old fire locks proceeded to the home of Wenzel Dower, the newly married man, andsquare. while he was enjoying that sweet ne cessity of nature, sleep, perhapsdi earn ing of some fancied enjoyments in the future, began their chivarie. Startled by the terrible racket the pair rushed out and not being* suitably clad had some trouble in resisting the power of jack frost while endeavoring to make a compromise, which was hnaly done and the boys retired to their homes satisfied. T. Iberia Items. (By our Special Correspondent Jason News is scarce so I guess I will have to draw on my imagination to make up for the deficiency. The Iberia Literary Society's newspaper is called, and very appropriately, "The Iberia Back Biter," and the character of the paper is in accord ance with its name. Anonymous writers can throw out insinuations and insults at little girls and old men and women and get fools to applaud their sharp thursts. Mr.James Keegan says if the gent leman who stole nis barrel of syrup from the Sorghum mill last fall will only return the barrel, or "leave it at Sleepy Eye, addressed to him, he will be thankful to the thief, and noDrug I have been considerably flattered to-day by several persons for my humble share in contributing to the Review. They told me they looked anxiously for the Review every. Sat urday morning, and the Iberia items were the first thing they looked for and that they should be dissappoint ed if there was nothing from Jason, but probably they were fooling or flattering me, I don't know which. Editor REVIEW: AS your paper is the only English paper published at the county seat, and as you have free access to all the records, you confer a favor on many of your readers by letting us know what is the total aggregate salaries of all our county omcials and what portion oi our taxesgoes to the State. We are a little anxious to know what is done with $47,000, as that seems to be about the amount that the people of this county are taxed. I see the St. Paul Globe is follow ing the ex imple of the REVIEW in publishing remarks and biographies of our law makers. If the Senators had cultivated their brains to make them proportionately large with their bellies they would rival in wisdom the members of that famous and So vereign Council the Athenean Areo pagus so famed in Grecian history. I believe all the marriages up this way have been published except Mr, Green, of Mulligan, to Miss Mary Schlagel, formerly of Cottonwood. Mixed marriages are getting to be all the style around here foi the last year. Physiologists say crossing the breed improves it, and they all act on that principle around here. The Yankee girls marry Germans, Irish) Scandinavians, anything but a de cendant of the Pilgrim fathers. The men also are doing the same thing, of the two last American men that got married one paired with a Ger man girl the other with a Norwegian girl. That'sthe properwaj to harm onize all those discordant National elements and blend them all in one homogeneous matt, I had not been to Sfeepy Eye for a week past $1Tyesterday, ana I was astonished at theimprovements they had made in one week. At the Re vere House, where they aim to have everything first-class the office was full of "Drummers", and amongst thejest I saw a colored barber busy scraping a gentleman's face and on a littlecloserobservationI discovered it was the genial Mark Cane, late tonsbrial artist of New Ulm. On wending my way to the Masonic Hall I found a couple of agreeable young fellows setting type to get out a ^nawpapeywfni the comical and contrlflictory title of Sleepy Eye Wide Awake, but as you will get the first issue before you get this I say no more about it just- uow. The Editor has a Rising name and we hope the gravitation of his body will keep him near the earth while his name may still be Rising. It seems Mr. Bertrand presented a petition to the Legislature from the people of Brown Co. praying against a reduction of county official's sala ries we would like to have a copy of that petition and we will send to our worthy member for a copy, and see who the people are just to satis fy ourselves whether it is the poor tax payers or these plethoric officials are thepeople that sent in such ane farious petition. I would say tolhe County Officials if they can't bear a little reduction in their salaries they had betterstep down from their high positions, and I, JASON, your hum ble Iberia correspondent, will take the whole official business of the county by contract at sixty per cent of what the present incumbents are getting, or 40 per cent, less than they are gettiug and I will give ample se curity for the faithful discharge of duties between that of the Com misioners and theJudge. I don't wish to be troubled with-dutie* as high as that of the Judge nor as low as lli.it of the Commissioners. The County Commissioners can consider this pro position at their leisure and let me know if them other big fat fellows get mad and resign. [We would state for the informa tion of our Iberia correspondent that the petition referred to contained nearly 600 bonafide signatures a mong whom we noticed nearly all our heaviest tax payers.Editor.] NEW ADVERTISEMENTS NOTICE.
