The New Ulm Review marks a milestone by switching from six to seven columns and eight pages after 42 years. The change follows installation of a modern Duplex printing press, enabling larger format and expanded content. Readers are invited to see the new layout and upcoming features.
The Review reports the loss of a subscriber, a prominent local industry figure, who ordered discontinuation. The editors mock the move, defend their stance for the common people, and state the paper will continue despite the setback and his peeved reaction.
A Brown County Journal opines a public prize fight at the courthouse amphitheatre could raise funds. It envisions ringside seats at 25 dollars, general admission to watch from the courthouse space, and overflow via the Armory with live reports. The proposed bout pairs Filly-Fat and Strong-Arm Louis with posters printed gratis.
Reports from multiple quarters forecast possible peace talks with Russia though no definite steps are expected soon. Diplomats hedge by hinting contrary aims. meanwhile Russians gain ground as Archangel region soldiers rejoin the Moscow government. Europe and the U S face lumber shortages while North Russia offers virgin timber for export to pay for goods. A Newberry case in Michigan is referenced as a comparison.
The note lists ticket prices for an Armory event with ringside seats at 25 dollars standing room 5 dollars and overflow meeting seats 1 dollar plus war tax. It critiques a Journal editorial titled Fish and Spawn and contrasts human behavior with a fish spawning metaphor.
The piece argues Michigan would have been better off with a blunt blacksmith as senator over Benedict Arnold misidentification. It notes Newberry shows popular election can be as corrupt as legislative choice, though cost and effort are higher now. Also mentions Ernest Gust and Otto Hummel visiting Sleepy Eye for business.
