NEW ULM REVIEW. JOS. BOBLETEH, EDITOR & PKOP'R. Everything in Europe is in a state of painful uncertainty, and it seems that a general war is just as probable asjpeace. i, Pope Pius the Ninth died last Thursday at 4,57 p. m. The imme fliate cause, of death was tjie closing of the wound in the leg which made humors mount into the lungs an$ brain. The long struggle over the Regis tership of the Benson Land Office is at last over, and our friend Darwin S. Hall, of Beaver Falls, holds the Avinning card, the President having sent his name to the Senate last Fri day. Although Mr. Hall's claims for the position were supported by pur entire delegation in Congress, the appointment hung fire a long time, because Mr. Sehurz claimed that Civil Service Reform demand ed the promotion of young Mr. Bra den, who has baen acting register for the last three or four years. Mr. Broaden no doubt is a very competent young man, but Mr. Hall is equally competent, having filled the most important office in Renville county to the entire satisfaction of his con stituents, and he is at present clerk of the District Court. Mr. Hall is an earnest and active republican, aiid a gentleman in every sense, of the Avord, although he did summa rily make Gen. Jennison sit down in the Red Wing convention a year and a half agro. Among the Republican can didates for Congress in the second district, Ayhose narne% have crept in to the newspapers, are Major Strait, Hon. T, S. Buckham, Liberty Hall. M. C. Russell and J. A. Tatcher.' St. Paul Dispatch Being person all}* acquainted with a]l the above, named gentlemen, with the exception of Mr. Buckham, Ave have no doubt but what either of them would be acceptable to the Re publican voters of this district if nominated, but the preference of a large majority of them Aya believe is for Major Strait. The settlers on the frontier have no truer or Avarm er friend in the Halls of Congress than Major Strait. His energy in looking after their wants is untiring and knoAving this, they are in favor ,$f giving him another teqn. Some of the Major's opponents say that he is no talker, that he can not make a speech etc. I is true that ho is no great orator, hut then do the mena who talk upon every subject that comes before the House, accomplish the most in the end? W say, no.them. The real Avork is done in the com mittee rooms, and Major Strait, hav ing had six years experience, knows our Avants better than any other man that could be brought forward* Serious Charge asah^t Hon. Julien Cox. nK E. St. The. Lanesboro Journal publishes grave charges against Judge C.x It charges him with being bwiHtly drunk wh.le holding a term of court in Mar tin county, and that, during a lull in the business before the court, lie sunt, softer a short crazyffsort of reflection. "What in hell is it this court wants to do?" which, it says, he repeated, twice when the clerk suggested that perhaps 1,he court wanted to adjourn, and that Mr. Cox, with an oath, assented to the suggestion and adjourned the court. Mr. Cox indignantly denies the charges and proceeded to St. Paul, and called on Mr. L.add, chairman of the" judiciary committee of the House of Representatives, and demanded an, investigation by the Legislature. Further- develop- ments are expectantly lookud for, but we hope that ttie charges will be found groundless. Not alone for Cox's sake, but for the sake of the voters of thia district. Should the charges be sustained, the f-ooner Mr. Cox is impeached, the better it will, be lor him and all concerned. Sleapy Eye Jottings.. Capt. J. R.

The school was spelled down by Chiis.Putter,' a lad 14 yqars old. Monday morning as Mr. Jas. Arnold was in the act of hitching up his "black-hawks" to the wagon, they became unmanageable and niter a hard scuffle, the horses got the better of Mr. Arnold and drag ged him over the frozen ground, at a fearful rati-of speed, for the distance of about 40 rods, when he let them go. After the horses had run to their hearts content, they returned to the stable. Mr. Arnold was not seriously hurt and it is hoped that he will soon be able to be about again. Any.person wishing to purchase a "blooded team," cheap, should call o Mr. Arnold at once. A conspiracy is on foot among the greenback it^en of this pl.-ice to elect Brick Fomroy, President of the United States, next Thursday evening. Why they should do this we have no way of knowing, unless they propose to impeach President Hayes' little A Mr. Greene, ofVicksburg, Uenville.-Co., was here last week and formed a greenback club with a iqembership of Id, and since that time "greenbacks" are getting very plenty. Greenbacks af.ea good thing, especially if you have plenty of them, and if Mr- Greene would only distribute a basket fill], at every place he speaks he would draw larger crowds, and be ofmore benefit to the public. GOLDEN GATE, FEB, 11th, 1878. EDITOR REVIEW: 1 notice in your last issue of the REVIEW, that one of our fellow singers of tone Tree, in alluding to Mr. Movicul's efficiency, took advantage of the opportunity to criticise sorae of the Kinging done at that place on the 31st ult and in so doing he has shown his own ijrnorance of music, for he considers the teacher a professor of music, as he certainly is, and the piece he alludes to was sung on the key given by the teacher. Mr. C. turn to page 71, in your. Song King, look at the signaturfi, pitch the key, sing notes on the tenor stall especially the S( cpnd part, and if you are not as much above a "whisper" as you were from com mon sense, when yon wrote that piece, then I am mistaken. A SINGER. W are in receipt of a communi cation from A Greenhorn" of Gold- twenty Minnesota publishers, but there is a principle involved in Avhich they do feel inter ested. The demands upon the news papers for services in behalf of the State are almost unending and unIs limited. If any movement is on foot which may result in benefit to the State, the neA-vspapers are called on to carry it through. If advantages are to be set forth, if misstatements are to be corrected, if immigration is to be invited, the burden is rolled over on the shoulders of the neAvs papers. ^he fact is, that the news papers of Minnesota have done more to make the State Avhat it is to-day than all other influences combined. Ajid yet Av^ienever any matter comes up, however meritorious in itself, by which the. publishers of these papers may receive some slight pecuniary profit, the work of trimming and cutting and paring begins. I is at best a very small business, and re flects no particular eredit on any who are engaged in it. Personally, we do not care a cop per whether the law is retained or repealed. This paper has not been specially profited by- it at any time. But we' believe thia't if it is worth while passing laws, it is worth AA'hile furnishing them a the people,. es pecially as a man is not permitted to plead ignorance of the law in bar of judgement for its violation. W believe that if it is worth $65,000 in per diems and incidentals to have these laws passed by 147 men, it is worth from $10,000 to $16,000 to have them properly farnised to 700, 000 people. And we further believe that the plan contemplated by the present law is the best and most ef ficacious, and, all things considered, the cheapest that can be employed.
