NEW ULM The Democrats are Scared. The Democrats of New Ulm—that is the leaders—are geared. They show it in every more they make. It's thewith same old story of the last six years— they are ready to do almost anything now to effect their purpose. They begin to see that Republican ism is growing here. They see the ves tige of strength and of majority sliding from their grasp, and in order to hold onto it, are willing to employ means that should cause them to feel a touch of shame. In a recent meeting of their club, res olutions were passed and given to the press, censuriug the council and the chairman of the Republican county committee and insinuating that the lat ter manipulated the council in his own behalf in the matter of the appointment of judges of election. Could anything be more ridiculous and at the same time more offensive? It shows not only an effort, to weaken the cause of the Re publicans but an attempt to cast reflec tion upon the character of a man of strictest honesty and integrity. Every body Knows C. L. Roos. Everybodv knows too, that, even if there had been anything to gain by crooked work, he would not have lent uimself as a party to it, nor would he have been at the bot tom of such an unmanly scheme. Al* know too that under the circumstances the council could not have done other wise than ltdid. The charter provides that the aldermen from the various wards and one or two electors shall constitute the judges of election. Roos represents the first waid, and in his ab sence from the council meeting, the council simply did its duty in appoint ing him. The Democratic leaders, in raising a kick against its action, showed either their ignorance or their mali ciousness. Ihey may account for it like the man who introduced the reso lution on the ground that "evervthing is fair in war," but the majority of Democrats know will repudiate the charge and rebuke, as entirely wrong, the scheme to win strength for them selves by laying accusations at the door of others, who have too much of thefending man in them to even al]ow the thought of such a political trick to lie harbored in their heads. And now what are the facts connect ed with this matter1* The Democrats who allowed the resolutions to be passed and appear in print, knew be forehand that Roos' hands and those of the other aldermen were clear. They had been given a plain statement of facts regarding the whole transaction in time to prevent, if they had desired, the passage of the resolutions. Wh\ didn't they3 Because they thought they could make political capital by doing otherwise. They knew that they were charging Roos and the council men wrongfully and without reason, but they preferred to run tne risk of doing themselves good at Mr. Roos' ex pense. Unfortunately for them, they didn't know that the thing that they tackled was loaded. The judges of election were appoint ed while Mr. Roos was out of town. He knew nothing of the action of the council until he returned. He was not informed that he had been appointed as judge until the next night when a special meeting was being held. Then, when told of the council's action, he at once declined to serve for the reason that he was engaged in politics him self and could not consistently perform the duties allotted to him. The coun cil insisted on his serving but he posi tively refused and asked that some one else be appointed in his place. This was agreed to, and there are Democratic members of the council, who are also members of the club that passed the resolutions, that were aware of the true facts. There are others also who were informed of what had been done before the resolutions were pub lished, and the fact that they heeded not the explanation shows to what des peiate straits they have' come wnen they find it necessary to blacken a man's character without excuse in or der to gain political ends. Now what do the people of New Ulm as a whole think of such campaigning? Is it respectable? Is it worthy of lead ders? The honor of men like E. G, Koch, Wm. Pfaender, WnujpTrank, Chas. Stuebe, Jos. Schmucker and C. L. Roos should be of sufficient standing in this city, we should think, to prevent a few Democratic leaders Jfrom alleg ing trickery andj underhanded work in them without cause and witnout reason, and, if we are not badly mistaken, their honor Will be vouched for by the peo ple at the polls. The work of the lead ers will be rebuked. It should hardly be necessary for us to refute the insinuation that originated the brilliant author of the "Plau derwinkel" in the last issue of the Post, to the effect tnat the Review was an enemy to New Ulm. In the late un pleasantness, everybody knows the stand that was taken by this paper. From beginning to end it was loyal to the city's interests, and, if there was a paper in the town that did not take a back seat and remain silent on the mat ters that came up in that quarrel, it was this same Review, which is now being accused of treason because it does not hesitate to support a ticket which the Democrats are afraid will be elected. In that fight not only was the editor of Review abused on every occasion by the opposition to New Ulm but one of the proprietors as well was compelled to submit to treatment, which under ordi nary circumstances, would have been stood by no man. All this is forgotten now of course,and the Review is charged with being a traitor, while the propriet or himself is being bitterly opposed in a race for office. But such slight matters aside, this is not a county-seat squabble. Brown County is through with that matter, and it should be buried as deep as Hades. This is a political camp aign. We are en gaged in a fight between two great par ties, and into that tight no local squab bles should be allowed to enter. Noth ing is to come of them except bitter feeling and that is not a thing to be de sired. The Republicans have nominated a ticket and they should stand by it one and all no matter what the Democrats may say, for if they were all angels on the ticket the Democrats would still find fault. You listen to them, and \ou listen to a lot of partisans who want to see Democrats elected and no one else, no matter where thev come from. The Republican ticket is a good one. It treats all sections ot the coun ty with fairness and we believe in sap porting it from now till election is over. If it was a county-seat fight, the Review would be found in its proper place, de the city's interests, as it always has, and doing its duty as all loyal papers should, but that matter does not enter into this election whatever. There is not a man on the Republican ticket whose election will not be a benefit to the people of Brown County. The Dem ocrats of course will give you alleged reasons for not voting for them, but it is all done merely to elect Democrats. Look back for the past few years and see if that isn't what they have been doing right along. When yoi- have done that, ask ourselves whether it has done you any good or not. Beware of Democratic Schemes. The Review has one advice to give to the Republican Clubs of Brown County and that is. Beware of Democratic schemes. For the last six or eight years the policy of the Democrats of New Ulm has been to spring schemes in the eleventh hour. Just as Republican success looked brightest and when vic tory was most assured, some fertile brain in the Democratic camp would hatch out some damnable trick or de-tleman, ception and with that win votes for the Democratic cause. They did it two years ago. In fact they have dom* it every year and will do so again. Unless, the Republicans are on their guard and stand prepared to nip their dirty games ere they are fairly practiced, we may expect that many will be led astray, and that we will wake up, when it is perhaps too late, to find ourselves the dupes of wily tricksters. But if we continue on the look-out, and stand op against all attempts at bull-dozing, ail will be well. The prospects now are for a Republican victory in Brown county. Then let every Republican toe the work, and refuse to be deceived bv Democratic stories circulated at the last moment. No one who heard Bob Evans^wo years ago will neglect to hear him again. In common parlance^ "he ben a dandy." «SSp5 $««£ VOLUME XIII. NO. 44. NEW ULM, BROWN COUNTY, MINN., WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 29, 1S90. WHOLE NUMBER, Republicans, Stand Together. Z~ Disreputable Campaigning •^x For honor in journalism one must look outside of the St. Paul News and Daily Volkszeitung. Neither of them have the least regard for fairness and each would prefer to tell a lie when it was convenient to tell the truth. It will be remembered that a week ago Monday night, two meetings were held in this city,one Republican and oneDemocratic. The Democratic meeting—and we have it from a Democrat too,— was attended by not more than two hundred people. The Republican gathering was the largest of the two, but here comes She St. Paul News and gives an alleged in terview which is false from beginning to end. We quote the interview in or der to be exact: E. G. Pahl, Democratic candidate for lieutenant* governor, came in from New Ulm this morning on his way to Fari ibault, wnere the Democrats hold a mass meeting to-night. Mr. Pahl re ports two meetings at New Ulm last night—one Republican and one Demo cratic—the latter having out 500 people and the former not over fifty. '-That shows you the way the wind is blowing in our county," said Mr. Pahl." Now not onlv is the above a lie in re gard to figures, but Mr. Pahl denies ever having been seen by a News man. He says the statement probably origi nated with the Democratic committee. However that- may be, it shows to what a pitiable extent the Democrats are driving themselves to make believe that they are .still on top. It's a case of anything to get there. The Volkszeitung of the same day contained a similar report, only worse. It only allowed the Republicanjneeting an attendance of 16 and gave the Dem ocrats a crowded house. Under ordi' nary occasions this the Volkszeitung would not have been anything to won der at, but when the Democratic speak er was one of the Volkszeitnng's own editors tho report appears disgusting. As a writer to to the Pioneer Press says in commenting on the reports, "it looks as if the Democrats wanted outside people to believe that there are no Re publicans in this city. As a matter of fact, there are plenty of them. Repub publican meetings are alwavs the larg est and it has been the easiest thing in the world to keep up an enthusiastic Republican club. The club now num bers nearly 200 active voting members. Every meeting is attended by from 200 to 300 people, whereas the Democrats find it difficult to get a sufficient num ber to do business. These are facts, and everwbody in New Ulm knows it. The Democrats may try to cover it up by such stories as those in the News and Volks Zeitung, but it remains a certainty that the Republican strength is growing, and that Merriam will carry the city." What next we may look for, we can not surmise, but we would advise the Republicans to be on the look-out, to stand together and to prepare them selves to down any scheme that is sprung in their way to deceive them. Louis Hermanson, candidate for reg ister of deeds on the Republican ticket in Nicollet county, was a caller on Wed nesday. Mr, Heimanson is a fine gen thoroughly qualified to act as register, and although he is not very well known in this part of the country the people of Nicollet county one and all need not be afraid to give him their votes. To all those in Nicollet county, who happen to read this article we would say: Vote for C. R. Davis, for senator. The re-election of C. K. Davis to the United States senate is one of the mat ters tnat the men who compose the next state senate will have to con sider, and it is of paramount importance that men are found there who will look after C. K. Davis' interests. The fct.
