New Ulm’s city election may not be such a quiet affair after all. Altho it is an off year in elections and there are only four councilors to be chosen opposition has sprung up in two of these wards and at least half of the city will have reasons to go to the polls to cast their vote on Tuesday, April 17.
Old Councilors Seek Re-election
All of the old councilors are seeking re-election. These are John Siebenbrunner in the first ward, George Saffert in the second ward, Chas. Kuehlbach in the third ward and Fred Hamann in the fourth ward. Two of these, Siebenbrunner and Hamann, will have no opposition on the ballot and unless a sticker campaign should be successfully waged against either one of them, both are assured of re-election.
Fight In Second And Third
In the second ward Councilor Saffert will have opposition from Wm. Hoss, who last year gave Dr. J. H. Vogel a run for his money. The “bloody” third is again out in full force and three candidates have cast their Fedoras into the ring. G. W. Schlottman was the first to file, having plunked down his dollar to the city clerk last Saturday morning. Before the official close of the filing office on Monday evening of this week, Charles Kuehlbach and Frank Woratschka had also come across with a nice shiny cartwheel, determined to make it a free-for-all.
