Harmony marks a peaceful Democratic county convention
The Democratic County Convention at the Unique Theatre chose F. W. Johnson as temporary chair and William Brest as secretary. Delegates from New Ulm Sleepy Eye and other wards were seated, resolutions praised Jeffersonian principles, criticized Republicans, and endorsed direct election of Senators, income tax, and reform measures. The meeting adjourned confident this would be a banner year for Democracy.
