              <text>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Die Deutschen für Cleveland&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Warum der Präsident der National-Brauer-Association nicht für Blaine stimmen will.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Hermann B. Scharmann, Präsident der National-Brauer-Association und ein sehr einflussreicher Republikaner der einundzwanzigsten Ward von Brooklyn, ist nunmehr herzhaft und umwunden für Cleveland und Hendricks aufgetreten. Als er darüber befragt wurde, wie er zu diesem Standpunkt gelangt sei, antwortete er:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;“Weil, nach meiner Ansicht und Meinung, seine Candidatur sehr viel mit der persönlichen Freiheit zu thun hat und mit der Unbeschränktheit vieler unserer besten Mitbürger in jeder Hinsicht. Die Republikaner verschiedener Staaten der Union, vornehmlich diejenigen von Kansas und Iowa, haben die Wohlthat der persönlichen Freiheit durch Prohibitionsgesetze auf’s Empfindlichst angegriffen und diesen Gesetzen muß ein Theil seine Unabhängigkeit zum Opfer bringen. Ich halte dafür, daß Niemand ein Recht hat, durch seine Abstimmung zu besagen, ob ich irgend ein alkoholhaltiges Getränk trinken muß oder nicht muß. Manche meiner republikanischen Freunde sagen zu mir: “Scharmann, diese Prohibitionsfrage ist ein Ding, welches die einzelnen Staaten allein angeht; der Präsident hat nichts damit zu thun.” Meine Antwort ist, daß der letzte Congreß, durch die Anstrengungen von Neal Dow, dem Vater der Prohibition, und durch Herrn Blair von New Hampshire eine Commission lediglich zu dem Zwecke ernannte, dem kommenden Congreß zu rapportiren, ob es, nach des Committee’s Ansicht, für die Regierung rathsam sein würde, darauf zu dringen, daß ein Prohibitions-Gesetz gegen den Verkauf und die Herstellung von alkoholhaltigen Getränken zu Stande komme.”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;“In welche Verbindung bringen Sie Herrn Blaine mit dieser Angelegenheit?”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;“Sie werden sich erinnern, daß gelegentlich der republikanischen National-Convention Herr Blaine die Unterstützung jedes Delegaten von Maine, Kansas und Iowa hatte, welche alle drei Prohibitionstaaten sind. Und Sie werden sich ferner erinnern, daß, als die Prohibitionisten Herrn Neal Dow angingen, sich um die Präsidentschafts-Candidatur zu bewerben, derselbe prompt antwortete: “Nein, ich werde für Blaine stimmen; der Mann ist mir genug Temperenzler für meine Stimme.”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;“Welcher Theil von deutschen Wählern stimmt wohl mit diesen Ihren Ansichten überein?” &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;“Ich habe meine guten Gründe, anzunehmen, daß meine Ansichten durchaus die gleichen sind von einer überwiegend großen Mehrzahl des intelligenten deutschen stimmfähigen Elements, ohne Rücksicht auf deren politische Richtung. Aber ich habe noch andere Gründe, Hrn. Blaine zu opponiren. Da ist nämlich Nichts, was zu seinen Gunsten sprechen könnte in dem Faktum, daß die republikanische Partei ihn als ihren ‘geriebensten Politiker’-- merken Sie wohl auf, ich sage: ‘Politiker’-- dargestellt. Während der einundzwanzig Jahre oder mehr, welche er im Congreß gesessen, hat er kein Gesetz schaffen helfen, das dem Publikum Gutes gebracht hätte, und wo immer Blaine sich selbst eine Wohlthat erzeigen konnte, hat er auch sich selbst, als seinen besten Freund, nicht vergessen.”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;“In welchen Staaten wird die Opposition der Deutschen gegen Blaine sich wohl am stärksten zeigen nach Ihrer Ansicht?”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;“In den Staaten New York, Ohio, Illinois und Indiana und die Opposition in diesen Staaten wird voraussichtlich fatal für seine Candidatur werden.”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;“Darnach wäre also das Interesse der Brauer unseres Landes gegen Blaine gekehrt?”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;“Ich glaube, daß dies so sein wird. Doch bin ich als Präsident der Brauer-Association der Ver. Staaten nicht autorisirt, zu behaupten, daß die Brauer alle gegen Blaine seien, doch ich glaube, daß es die Mehrzahl ist. Mein Glaube gründet sich hauptsächlich auf die Meinungsäußerung derjenigen Männer. Welche in der gleichen Branche thätig sind, wie ich selbst.”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;“Was meinen Sie wohl, daß das wahrscheinliche Resultat in diesem Staate sein werde?”&lt;/p&gt;
“Ich glaube positiv, daß Herr Cleveland unseren Staat gewinnen wird, denn ich kenne eine große Anzahl meiner republikanischen Freunde, welche für den demokratischen Candidaten stimmen werden. Als ich zum ersten Male gestimmt habe, war es für Abraham Lincoln, und wenn ich nun für Cleveland stimme, dann wird dies das erste Mal sein, daß ich je für einen demokratischen Candidaten gestimmt habe. Ich bin ein Republikaner und gehöre demnach der Demokratie auch jetzt nicht an. Aber ich habe mich vom republikanischen General-Committee zurückgezogen, damit ich frei sei und frei handeln könne, ohne meine Pflichten als ein Mitglied, dieses Committee’s verletzen zu müssen.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;[transcribed by Noah Hochstetler]</text>

                <text>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Why the President of the National Brewers Association won't vote for Blaine&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Hermann B. Scharmann, President of the National Brewers Association and a very influential Republican of the 21st Ward in Brooklyn, has as of now wholeheartedly declared his support for Cleveland and Hendricks. When asked as to how he had come to this point, he responded:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Because, in my view and opinion, Cleveland's candidacy has very much to do with personal freedom as well as with the lack of restrictions in every respect for many of our best citizens. Republicans of various states, particularly those of Kansas and Iowa, have attacked the gift of personal liberty most injuriously with their Prohibition laws, and some citizens must sacrifice their liberty for these laws. I believe that no one should have the right, by way of his vote, to say whether I must or must not drink any type of alcoholic beverage. A few of my Republican friends say to me: Scharmann, this Prohibition question is something which concerns states on an individual basis; the President has nothing to do with it. My answer is that the last Congress, due to the efforts of Neal Dow, the father of Prohibition, and of Mr. Blair of New Hampshire, appointed a committee solely for the purpose of reporting to the next Congress whether, in the committee's view, it would be advisable for the government to press for a Prohibition law against the sale and production of alcoholic beverages.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;What does this have to do with Mr. Blaine, in your opinion? &lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;You will recall that during the Republican National Convention Herr Blaine had the support of every delegate from Maine, Kansas, and Iowa, all three of which are Prohibition states. And you will further recall that when the Prohibitionists were encouraging Mr. Neal Dow to run for the presidency, he promptly answered: No, I will vote for Blaine; the man is enough of a temperance advocate for my vote.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;What portion of German voters agree with these views of yours? &lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I have many good reasons to assume that my views are the same as those of a vast majority of the thinking German electorate, regardless of their political allegiance. However, I have other reasons to oppose Mr. Blaine. There is namely nothing that can be said to his benefit in the fact that the Republican Party has portrayed him as their shrewdest politician. Note well that I say politician. During the twenty-one or more years that he has sat in Congress, he has not helped write a single law that did any good for the public, and wherever Blaine could do a good deed, he has never forgotten his best friend: himself.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;In your opinion, which states will show the strongest German opposition against Blaine? &lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;New York, Ohio, Illinois, and Indiana, and the opposition in these states will likely be fatal for his candidacy.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Hence the interest of our nation's brewers will also be against Blaine? &lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I believe it will be so. However, as president of the Brewers Association of the United States, I am not authorized to suggest that all brewers will be against Blaine, although I think the majority is. My belief is based principally on the opinions of those men who are involved in the same trade as myself.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;What do you think the probable result in this state [New York?] will be? &lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I positively believe Mr. Cleveland will win our state because I know a great number of my Republican friends will vote for the Democratic candidate. When I voted for the first time I voted for Abraham Lincoln, and if I now vote for Cleveland it will be the first time ever that I voted for a Democratic candidate. I am a Republican and thus do not belong to the Democratic party even now. I have however stepped down from the Republican general committee, so that I might be free and able to conduct myself freely without having to neglect my duties as a member of this committee.&lt;/p&gt;</text>

&lt;p&gt;There is a provision by means of which one can call to account so-called unpatriotic or disloyal citizens. All reports of such wrongdoings should be made immediately to the county Council of Defense. This body absolutely condemns mob actions designed to hold someone accountable.

              <text>&lt;h4&gt;Das Frauenstimmrechts=Amendment.&lt;/h4&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;Zugleich mit der Primärwahl am 5.&lt;br /&gt;Juni, in welcher die Kandidaten für die&lt;br /&gt;Staats= und County= Aemter (Ämter), die im November zu wählen sind, nominirt (nominiert)&lt;br /&gt;werden, findet die Abstimmung über das&lt;br /&gt;Frauenstimmrecht statt. Wird diese an=&lt;br /&gt;genommen, so wird die Constitution des&lt;br /&gt;Staates einverleibt und die Frauen in&lt;br /&gt;Iowa besitzen das Stimmrecht. Wes=&lt;br /&gt;halb mit dieser so wichtigen Abstim=&lt;br /&gt;mung nicht bis zur Herbstwahl gewartet&lt;br /&gt;worden ist, läßt (lässt) sich leicht erraten.&lt;br /&gt;Nämlich bei dieser wird, da dann Prä=&lt;br /&gt;sidentenwahl ist, nahezu das volle Vo=&lt;br /&gt;tum des Staates abgegeben, bei einer&lt;br /&gt;Primärwahl aber stimmt nur ein Theil (Teil)&lt;br /&gt;der Wähler, sogar nur ein kleiner Theil (Teil),&lt;br /&gt;und da sicher alle Freunde des Frauen=&lt;br /&gt;Stimmrechts stimmen werden, so ist da=&lt;br /&gt;mit die Annahme weit leichter durchzu=&lt;br /&gt;setzen, wie wenn ein volles Votum abge=&lt;br /&gt;geben wird. Die Frauenrechtler in der&lt;br /&gt;Legislatur haben sehr schlau gerechnet,&lt;br /&gt;indem sie die Frage in einer Primär=&lt;br /&gt;wahl, statt in einer Haupt= und Gene=&lt;br /&gt;ralwahl, den Wählern unterbreiteten.&lt;br /&gt;Eine solche wichtige Frage hätte doch&lt;br /&gt;unbedingt dann zur Abstimmung kom=&lt;br /&gt;men sollen, wenn das größtmöglichste&lt;br /&gt;Votum zu erwarten war, wo jeder Bür=&lt;br /&gt;ger stimmen würde. Aber nein, das&lt;br /&gt;paßte (passte) dem allmächtigen Mucker= und Suffragettenthum, welche die letzte Le=&lt;br /&gt;gislatur ganz und gar beherrschte, nicht&lt;br /&gt;in den Kram und so wurde die Angele=&lt;br /&gt;genheit zu einer Zeit zur Abstimmung angeordnet, wo man sicher ist, nur ein&lt;br /&gt;kleines Votum, keinesfalls ein volles&lt;br /&gt;Votum und damit die wirkliche Mei=&lt;br /&gt;nungsäußerung der ganzen Bürger=&lt;br /&gt;schaft des Staates zu erhalten.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Von dem Ausgang der Frauenstimm= rechts=Wahl hängt wahrscheinlich auch&lt;br /&gt;die nächstjährige Prohibitionswahl ab,&lt;br /&gt;die entscheiden soll, ob der jetzt schon&lt;br /&gt;bestehende Prohibitionsblödsinn kon=&lt;br /&gt;stitutionell werden soll, was bedeutet,&lt;br /&gt;daß (dass) wir die Trockenheit überhaupt nicht&lt;br /&gt;mehr los werden oder nicht. Wenig=&lt;br /&gt;stens ist immerhin eine Möglichkeit eines&lt;br /&gt;freisinnigen Sieges ohne Frauenstimm= recht vorhanden — mit Frauenstimm=&lt;br /&gt;recht aber absolut nicht. Deshalb wäre&lt;br /&gt;es sehr zu wünschen, das (dass) sich unsere Li=&lt;br /&gt;beralen und Gegner der politischen&lt;br /&gt;Gleichberechnung (Gleichberechtigung) der Geschlechter etwas&lt;br /&gt;mehr rühren, wie sie bis jetzt gethan (getan)&lt;br /&gt;haben, wenn ihnen überhaupt etwas an&lt;br /&gt;der Ablehnung dieser Frage liegt. Um=&lt;br /&gt;somehr (umso mehr), da alle günstigen Aussichten bis&lt;br /&gt;jetzt auf Seite der Frauenrechtler liegen.&lt;br /&gt;Die meisten der Governors=Kandidaten,&lt;br /&gt;auch der sogenannte demokratische, der&lt;br /&gt;Herr Meredith, haben sich offen für das&lt;br /&gt;Frauenstimmrecht erklärt. Desgleichen&lt;br /&gt;die meisten Aspiranten für andere&lt;br /&gt;Staatsämter. Die Anhänger des Weib=&lt;br /&gt;lichen Unterrocks betreiben außerdem&lt;br /&gt;eine viel regere Campagne (Kampagne), offen und&lt;br /&gt;mehr noch im stillen (Stillen), als die andere&lt;br /&gt;Seite, die sich außer einigen vernünftigen&lt;br /&gt;Frauen, die selbst gegen ihre Hinein=&lt;br /&gt;zerrung in unsere Politik sind, noch&lt;br /&gt;nicht rühren.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Bis zum 5 Juni sind nur noch einige&lt;br /&gt;Wochen hin und soll noch eine starke&lt;br /&gt;öffentliche Bewegung gegen das beab=&lt;br /&gt;sichtigte Weiber=Regiment eingeleitet&lt;br /&gt;werden, so ist’s hohe Zeit. Es muß (muss),&lt;br /&gt;wenn überhaupt Hoffnung vorhanden&lt;br /&gt;ist, die Frauenrechtler zu schlagen, da=&lt;br /&gt;rauf hingearbeitet werden, daß (dass) ein mög=&lt;br /&gt;lichst starkes Votum in der Wahl abge=&lt;br /&gt;geben wird, denn nur darin liegt augen=&lt;br /&gt;scheinlich einige Aussicht, den Ansturm&lt;br /&gt;abzuschlagen. Die Gleichgültigkeit der&lt;br /&gt;Massen, die diese Primärwahlen gegen=&lt;br /&gt;über haben muß (muss) abgeschüttelt werden, so&lt;br /&gt;daß (dass) so viele Bürger wie nur möglich,&lt;br /&gt;nicht nur die Befürworter des Frauen=&lt;br /&gt;stimmrechts, sich zum Wahlplatz begeben.

                <text>The Women's Suffrage Amendment&#13;
&#13;
The referendum on women's suffrage will take place together with the June 5th primaries, in which voters will nominate candidates for state and county offices for the later November election. Should the measure be approved, the state constitution will be amended to grant suffrage to all women in Iowa. We can easily surmise why such an important referendum was not postponed until the November election. In November, when the presidential election takes place, nearly the entire state will turn out to vote. During a primary, however, only a fraction of voters, even a small fraction, will turn out at the polls, and since all friends of women's suffrage will vote, the amendment will pass much more easily than with a high voter turnout. The suffragists in the state legislature have slyly brought this referendum before voters during a primary election rather than a general election. Such an important matter should have been placed on the ballot when nearly every eligible voter would go to the polls. But no, that didn't suit the all-powerful yes-men and suffragettes who completely dominated the last state legislature, and so the matter was scheduled to come to a vote at a time when there is certain to be a low voter turnout, anything but a full turnout that might be a representative measure of opinion among all citizens.&#13;
&#13;
Next year's Prohibition referendum will likely depend on the result of the women's suffrage vote. This second referendum will decide whether the current Prohibition nonsense shall become constitutional, i.e., whether we'll be rid of temperance or not. Without women's suffrage, there is at least the possibility of a victory for personal liberty; with women's suffrage, absolutely not. For this reason, it would be quite useful if the liberals and opponents of the political equality of the sexes would rouse themselves more often than they have up to this point, if the failure of this referendum is of any concern to them at all. They have all the more reason to do so, since the suffrage camp has the more favorable prospects at the moment. The majority of candidates for governor, even the so-called Democrat, Mr. Meredith, have declared their support for women's suffrage, and the majority of aspirants for state offices have done the same. The petticoat supporters, moreover, are conducting a much more vigorous campaign, both in the open and quietly, than the opposing side, which has hardly lifted a finger, with the exception of a few sensible women who are opposed to being dragged into politics.&#13;
&#13;
There are only a few weeks left until June 5th. If public momentum against the proposed women's regime is to develop, then it's time to act. If there is to be any hope of victory over the suffragists, then we must work towards generating the largest turnout possible, for therein lies apparently the only chance of heading off the coming storm. The apathy of the masses towards primaries must be overcome, so that as many citizens as possible, not only the proponents of women's suffrage, make their way to the ballot box.&#13;

                <text>According to an archival note from the University of Dubuque, this document was probably written by William O. Ruston, who was the president of the school from 1904-1908, about the circulation of the Dubuque Evangelist.  William Ruston discusses two constituencies of the publication: Germans and non-Germans.  Ruston identifies financial concerns and discusses the care needed to address the needs of both constituencies during the war.  Ruston speaks to precarious situation of Germans in Dubuque during World War One.  The document includes specific information about subscribers and finances. </text>
