New Ulm Captures It. The State Christian Endeavor Convention Will be Held Here in 1898. The General Desire among the Delegates to Come to .New Ulm Threw All Other Towns Out of the Fuchl. It Means a Convention of From Six Hun dred to One Thousand Delegates. New Ulm gets the state Christian En deavor Convention in 1898. She captured it almost without oppo sition. Feigus Falls and Austin had some thought of entering the field, but they weren't in it with New Ulm and quietly withdrew. When the committee, therefore, reported Saturday morning in favor of New Ulm, the resolution was greeted with general enthusiasm and adopted without a dissenting vote. It was brought about in this way. The local committee had sent out New Ulm badges to all of the societies in the state, and the idea of coming to New Ulm took among them like wildfire. Everybody was enthusiastic. Sinclair of Redwood Falls virtually tuckered himself out whooping it up foi New Ulm The Owatonna people all wore the badges, so did the president, and the Minneapolis contingent to a man. Among the latter was one of the most enthusi astic talkers for New Ulm in the entire convention—Attorney Walter Carroll. He happened to be on the committee and never failed to put in a good word for the city whose badge he wore. The convention in Owatonna was at tended by over 600 delegates besides others who kept coming and going. The attendance in New Ulm next year, it is safe to say, will be even larger. The members of the different societies of the state have all heard of New Ulm and all want to see it. "Man wants but little here below."

John Lind, who was the silver candidate tor governor last year and is likely to head the same ticket in '98, has always been a Republican, is one of the safest of the silver leaders, is less proli fic in promises than the thoughtless shouters, is a good lawyer, and deserves to be classed with Senator Teller rather than with the florid-faced enthusiasts, who toil not neither do they spin, and yet live in one way or another off the silver cause. xMr. Buzzell will speak at Gebser's Hall next Sunday morning on a topic of great interest at the present time—"Hen ry George, the Apostle to the Common People."
