WHERE IS THE AMERICAN FLAG
Ask, and the world-wide winds will answer
As they blow from the land and the sea:
The flag of America is waving
In the highlands of liberty.
Wherever a nation of people
Is cozened, coerced and oppressed
You'll find the American ensign
Beloved and honored and blest,
Where the hosts of the nation are fighting,
And the Russian bullets speed by,
The conquering Jap points proudly"
To the flag that floats near by
And there they greet with welcome
The flag they know to be
To them 'tis the voice of Freedom
That bids them struggle through.
It has never been waved for conquest.
Nor flaunted o'er deeds of shame,
Nor waved o'er the fell marauder
As he ravished with sword and flame.
It has opened the gates of commerce
To the Hindoo's fertile shore
It has carried its blessing to China
And opened her fast-closed door.
The Armenian looks to it in trouble
And again with his dying breath,
The Cuban with its folds around him
Has hallowed its memory in death.
Loved as the emblem of freedom,
When Spain's starving subjects were slain
Jt encouraged the dauntless Cuban
To struggle for freedom again.
Where is the American Ensign?
Seek where the oppressed are found
Struggling to gain their freedom
From burdens that weigh to the ground.
Go, search where the homes are happy,
And the lands are free from strife
Where the birds sing ever of freedom
And the cities are teeming with life.
Where is the American Ensign?
It is waving on every sea
Its message is peace, to the struggling
And its motto is liberty.
Go .search where the Christian religion
Has entered the savage's lair
Where prosperity blessns the people—
The flag of America is there.

it it
Unless all indications fail, and there
is no reason to believe that they will,
there will be a larger vote cast in the
coming city election than has been cast
for many years. It is a good thing for
the city when its people take an in-been
terest in affairs of this kind. So far
the most pleasant feeling has prevailed
among the candidates for the various
offices, and this is likely to continue.
The campaign is not a contest for
personal preferment but it grows out
of the fact that the finances of the city
are in such shape that they demand
the most conservative management. It
is in the hope that the expenses of
runing the city may be lessened and
some of the useless expenditure of city
money be curtailed, that this agitation
is brought.
The present management has shown
itself unable or unwilling to cope with
the proposition. At a time when there
is need of the strictest economy no
thought of economy is entertained.
This feature of the government of
the city does not appeal as strongly to
the non-taxpaying voter as it does to
the one who has found his taxes larger
this year than last and may expect an
increase another year.
The present city council may mean
to do the best thing possible. It is
composed of men who have no object
in doing otherwise, but they have
proved incapable of holding the po
sition and it is due to the people who
pay the expenses of the city that its
management be put into the hands of
men who will use better judgment, to
say the least. Because a man is a
good fellow, it does not. hold that he
will make the best official.
ii
The best men to transact the busi
ness of the city are the men who are
themselves busiest about their own
affairs. It is reasonably safe to as
sume that such men, once they are in
the office, will dispatch the business
with the least possible time and ex
pense. He can't afford to do other
wise, and it is old saying, and holds
true in every ease, that if you have
work to. do get the busiest man to do
it. A man who has his own business
to attend to has no time to go on use
less junketing trips at the expense of
the citjv
Korea has an insignificant military
force, but she ought not to be censur
ed for contributing her widow's mite
to the relief of Japan.
Russia's threat that she will wipe
Japan off the face of the earth does
not seem to go in harmony with the
plan she has made for doing it.
Japan does not consume American
flour, and Russia will not buy it.
The war seems to be an insufficient
reason for the advance in priees.
General Kuropatkin declares that
the war in the Orient will continue for
eighteen months. The czar must have
a tremendous reserve force somewhere.
It is stated in New York that $40,
000 can be raised to defeat President
Roosevelt, and yet the highest offer
thus far made for a satisfactory Dem
ocratic platform is only $100.
Chas. F. Murphy, the Tammany
leader, seems to have a very errone
ous impression of CoL Bryan. The
latter he will find to be much harder
to control than Chas. A. Towne was.
If Congressman Hepburn's bill to
prevent the shipment of liquor into
prohibition states shall become a law,
the citizens of those states may again
be reduced to the extremity of buying
it by the drink.
In the event of the Japanese fleet
attacking Port Arthur by day and
sending torpedo boats into the harbor
by night, it will be hard for the Rus
sians to satisfactorily arrange their
hours for sleeping.
Some of the United States senators
of other states than Minnesota are el
igible to membership in Mr. Cleve
land's "rank and file" list. They
have proved themselves to be rank
leaders and persistent gnawers of the
file.
Presiden• Roosevelt has decided not
to make a campaign tour, of speeches.
He will content himself with receiving
at the. White House. He may not be
doing this on the precedent established
by other presidents, but it is true
nevertheless that no candidate for
president has been elected who has
made an extensive campaign tour.
Now comes the Mankato Citizens
Telephone Company asking for the
privilege of further maring the appear
ance of the city with its unsightly poles.
What action the council will take on
the question is hard to determine, but
as far as the actual necessity of having
the line in this city is concerned, it
does not need it any more than a dog
needs two tails. Their line does not
give the service the present company
does and their rates are not so reason
able. Let us be loyal to the company
we have rather than seek to cripple it
by encouraging a second company to
come to afield that to be divided would
destroy the value of both.
Utah is getting the best houseclean
ing she ever had, and it is to be
hoped in the interests of all good
morals, the stain that the law of the
land has so long sought to wipe out,
will receive its effectual abolition at
this time. The high office of senator,
even when it has been held by mention
who were not criminals under the Con
stitution of the United States, has
too often perverted to illegal
ends to allow it to be further prosti
tuted by being held by one who en-Try
joys the distinction of publicly com
mitting and countenancing a crime
for which other states and the Consti
tution of the United States impose a
heavy penalty. No man should Iiold
office of any kind, where he is required
to impose the obligations of the law,
who is engaged in a business or pass
time that requires his own violation
of the law, however much that viola
tion may be winked at-by the people.
Republican County Convention.
Republican primaries will be held in
all the wards of the city at 7:30 o'clock
next Saturday evening for the selection
of delegates to the republican county
convention at Sleepy Eye. In the first
ward the voters will assemble at the
old court house, in the second at the
school house in German Park and in
the third at the city clerk's office.
Twenty-two delegates are to be chosen
seven from the first and second wards
and eight from the third. They will
leave on the afternoon train next
Tuesday for Sleepy Eye and the con
vention will be held in the opera house
there.

HUMOROUS HAPPY HOOLIGAN

PJ*'3^S? 5SJJS*5«S&
Catchy Comedy to Appear at ~tne
Theatre.
William Owen Also Booked
Thursday, March 17th..-
for
At the Turner Theatre next Sunday
evening the catchy cartoon comedy,
"Happy Hooligan," will be produced
by a company of fifty people. I is
based upon the famous Opper draw
ings first published in the New York
Journal and the Chicago American
and since incorporated into nearly
every colored supplement in the coun
try and is said to be something entire
ly new.
The company is under the manage
ment of Gus Hill of New York, wide
ly known in theatrical circles, and
has just closed a very successful en
gagement in Milwaukee. It comes
here from Mankato and will leave the
city on a special train for Omaha.
Composing the troupe are fifty people,
including some of the best comedi
ans and specialty artists in the coun
try, There are troops of chourus
girls and understudies and everything
is on a most elaborate scale.
Lavishness itself describes the scen
ery and investiture, the costumes are
rich and the girls bewitching. There are
novel situations galore and more than
enough wholesome comedy to satisfy
the mosfr exacting. A special feature
is the "Diamond Number" in which a
dozen actresses appear in jeweled
gowns, costing all of $10,000. The
gowns are adorned with rhinestones
and when the calcium lights are turn
ed on the effect is truly dazzling.
For its musical program the com
pany gives all the latest hits in 'The
Wizzard of Oz," "The Sultan of Su
lu," and other popular musical com
edies and the melodies are all well
rendered. "Happy Hooligan" is an
attraction possessing merit, and thea
tre goers are awaiting it with eager
ness.
The scenic arrangement of William
Owen's new romantic play, "When
Louis I Wa King," in which he
will be seen at the Turner Theatre on
Thursday evening, March 17th, is
most varied and romantic. The 15th
Century style of Flemish, French and
Burgundian architecture has been
carefully studied and the general eff
ect that has been thus obtained is
most picturesque. The prologue and
last act both transpire in the gorgeous
audience chamber of Charles the Bold
of Burgundy. The first act shows the
Fleur de Lis Inn, a favorite haunt of
Louis XI, seated in a dense forest
near the historic palace of Plessis, the
famous castle itself showing in the
distance. Act Second lies in the
Court yard of the Priory of St. Domi
nique, the old priory forming the
back ground, surrounded by crumb
ling, ivy-covered walls.
The climax of the scenic equipment
however, is reached in the third act
which is enacted in the reception hall
of the palace of the Cardinal, Bishop
of Liege. It is one of the most beau
tiful and effective scenes ever pro
duced, showing the arched and domed
room with its canopied Cardinal's
throne, its latticed windows, heavy
sombre masonry, massive bronze
doors and rich furniture all illuminat
ed with myriads of caudles.and blaz
ing flambeau. A terriffic electrical
storm, one of the most realistic ever
produced, rages without during the
progress of the act, heightening the
effect and adding to the color and life
of the strenuous action. The produc
in its entirety is one that any star
might well be proud of.

FIRST STAGE0FCATARRH.
A Serious Mistake Which Thou
sands Are Making.
The first stage of catarrh is what is
commonly known as catching cold." It
may be in the head, nose, throat or lungs.
Its beginning is sometimes so severe as
to cause a chill and considerable fever,
or it may be so slight as to not hinder a
person from his usual business. In per
haps a majority of cases little or no at
tention is paid to the first stage of ca
tarrh, and hence it is that nearly one
half of the people have chronic catarrh
in some form.
To neglect a cold is to invite chronic
catarrh. As soon as any one discovers
the first symptoms of catching cold he
•bould at once begin the use of Peruna
STRICKLN IN A SLLIGH
Mrs. Herman Schneider Suffers Fatal
Stroke of Paralysis.
Caroline, wife of Herman Schneider,
Sr., died very suddenly Friday night
at the home of her daughter, Mrs. Wm.
J. Herrian. Mrs. Schneider had driven
out to call on her daughter, who has
been ill for more than a week, but as
she was being assisted from the sleigh
she was stricken with paralysis.
Loving hands carried her into the
dwelling but she never recovered con
sciousness and passed away at 10
o'clock.
Coming as it did without the slight
est warning her death was a great
shock to her relatives and a wide circle
of friends. Last September Mrs.
Schneider suffered a similar stroke but
it did not appear to affect her greatly
and of late her condition had not been
regarded as alarming.
Deceased was born in Gartz an der
Oder, Germany, Jan. 22,1845, and was
59 years of age. She was married in
the land of her ttirth to Herman
Schneider, Sr., and in 1880 they came
to America, settling at once in New
Ulm. Here she has since resided and
her demise will be mourned by many
near friends, who admired and re
spected her as an earnest Christian
woman and a devoted mother.
Mrs. Schneider is survived by'her
husband and seven children, all of
whom reside in New Ulm. They are:
Otto R. Schneider, Herman Schneider,
Robert Schneider, Mesdames Ed. Al
win, Anton Wiesner, Wm. J. Herrian
and Miss Bertha Schneider. She also
leaves seven sisters and brothers: Mrs.
August Puhlmann, Mrs. Chas. Block
and Ferdinand Bleck, of this city,
Chas. Bleck, Spokane, Wash.: Mrs.
Gundlach, Peeksville, N. Y. Mrs.
Patzig, New York City and Mrs. Chas.
Abert, Berlin, Germany.
The funeral was held from the Metho
dist church at 2 o'clock Monday after
noon and her remains were laid to
rest in the city cemetery.
Overcome by Coal Gas.
During the present winter there have
been several cases of partial asphyxi
ation in New Ulm. One occurred last
Tuesday night when Ernst Eyrich, the
popular clerk at Crone Bros., was
overcome by coal gas. That night
a stovepipe slipped from its position
and allowed coal gas to escape into
Mr. Eyrich's bed-chamber. When he
was aroused by his wife Wednesday
morning he started to cross the room
but in doing so fell to the floor un-

according to directioi« on the bottle,
and the cold is sure to pa.es away
without leaving any bad effects.
Unless this is done the cold is almost
sure to end in the second stage of ca
tarrh, which is making so many lives
miserable. If Peruna was taken every
time one has a cold or cough, chronic
catarrh would be practically an un
known disease.
Miss Elizabeth Uber, No. 67 Bassett
street, Albany, N. Y„ writes:
I have always dreaded unsettled
weather because of my extreme liability to
catch cold,when a catarrhal trouble would
quickly develop through my entire sys
tem, which it would take weeks to drive
away. I am thankful to say that since I
have taken PERUNA I do not have any
reason to dread this anymore. If I
have been at all exposed to the damp,
wet or cold weather, I take a dose or two
of PERUNA, and it throws out any hint
of sickness from my system."—Miss Eliza
beth Uber.
Mrs. M. J. Brink, No. 820 Michigan avenue,
St. Joseph, Mich., writes:
This past winter during the w»t and eold
weather I caught a sudden and severe cold,
which developed a catarrhal condition
through my entire system, and soaffected my
general health that I was completely broken
down, and became nervous and hysterical
and unfit to supervise my home. My physi
cian prescribed for me.but somehow his med
icine did me no good. Reading of PERUNA
I decided to try it. After I had taken but
three bottles I found myself In fine health."
—Mrs. M. J. Brink.
Sibyl A. Hadley, 26 Main street, Hunting
ton, Ind., writes: "Last winter after get
ting my feet wet I began to cough, which
gradually grew worse until my throat was
sore and raw. Ordinary remedies did not

ing the atmosphere, and he was then
resuscitated.
Mayor Celebrates Birthday.
Dr. C. Weschcke, New Ulm's vener
able mayor, quietly celebrated his
birthday at his home on German street
Friday. Mayor Weschcke is advancing
in years, for on Friday he passed the
milestone in life's
journey. The picturesque event was
observed by holding a reunion of the
Weschcke family and Mr. and Mrs.
Carl Weschcke of Springfield, came
down to pay their respects to the
former's father. Mayor Weschcke has
had along and honorable career and it
is the wish of the Review that he may
be spared to celebrate many more birth
days.
