JULIAR, HON. NICHOLAS. None of the human agencies which have paved the way for the present prosperity of Blue Earth county have risen superior in Judgment and attainment to those of our citizens who claim Teutonic lineage. The thrifty, economical and persevering qualities instilled into the youth of the Fatherland lost little when transferred to this side of the water, and their alliance without less conservative and more venturesome business methods produce naught save the most practical and substantial of results. Many individual instances abound in this part of the state which attest the fact that the well born and representative German rarely is the victim of unauthorized aggrandizement, but on the contrary moves with certainty of direction and definiteness of purpose that the speculative or uncertain element is almost entirely eliminated from his transactions. Offered in confirmation of this assumption is the career of Hon Nicholas Juliar, president of the St Clair State Bank, director in the Farmers' Fire Insurance Company, treasurer of the Union Minnesota Hail Insurance Company, holder of practically all of the offices within the gift of his fellow townsmen, and the owner, besides his splendidly appointed town home, of twenty-one hundred acres of land in Blue Earth county.
Mr Juliar is the son of a weaver, Nicholas Juliar, and he was two and a half years old when brought to this country from Alsace-Strassburg, Germany, where he was born December 28, 1841. His mother was Magdalen (Eidling), and she had, besides Nicholas Jr, ten other children, one daughter, the mother of Ringling Brothers, the world's greatest showmen, and one daughter the mother of Gollmar Brothers show. The family set sail from Havery in the spring of 1845, arriving at Castle Garden, New York, after seven weeks of buffeting with storm and calm. In the vicinity of Milwaukee, Wisconsin, the father bought a farm, and 15 years later moved to Baraboo, the same state, where he died in 1880, his wife surviving him until 1889. Nicholas Jr, was educated in the public schools of Milwaukee county and when old enough learned the harness trade which he followed in Milwaukee for seven years. He then returned to the old homestead nine miles out in the country, and four years later sold out his interest and moved to Blue Earth county, where he purchased a section of land. He was successful in general farming and stock-raising, conducted both on a gigantic scale, and, adding to his possessions as his business grew, owned in time his present tract of twenty-one hundred acres. His land is among the best in this northern section, and is admirably adapted to the various products known to flourish with extremes of weather. As a natural consequence he established a reputation for important undertakings, his word was recognized as better than his bond, and his advice and council in all that pertains to the landsman's occupation was eagerly sought and as implicitly followed.
As banking is the outgrowth of the need of its facilities, and as the property and income of Mr Juliar transcended in immediate needs, his position as head of that eminently popular and reliable banking institution, the St Clair State Bank, seems natural and fitting one. His connection with the insurance companies has added to their strength and standing in the community, and various other concerns have learned the worth of his good name and reputation for worth while accomplishment. He is one of those invaluable men who recognize a personal obligation in local undertakings generally, and who willingly sacrifices business chances to further the well being of the community. Though in no way desirous of honor, he served in the state legislature on two occasions, in 189o and 1905, in both instances evidencing his keen insight into the political situation, and his knowledge of the needs and possibilities of his townsmen. He is an ardent Republican, a conscientious voter, but withal, sufficiently liberal and far sighted to follow the dictates of conscience rather than the arbitrary dictates of any particular party.
The union of Mr Juliar and Catherin Stuve, a native of Wisconsin, occurred in 1862. Mr and Mrs Juliar have had ten children, nine of whom are living, six sons and three daughters, and they have thirty-two grand-children. Of their children, Albert and George are farmers in Blue Earth county; Richard is following the medical profession in Mountain Lake, this state; Otto and Harry are farmers in this county; Silas is connected with the State Bank of Mankato; Mary is the wife of H Hubiner, a farmer of this county; Emma is the wife of R Haedt, also of Blue Earth county; and Sarah is now Mrs E G Goldman of St Clair.
In addition to all of his other lines of business, Mr Juliar for twenty-eight years was a public auctioneer. In religion he is a member of the Evangelical Association. Personally he is a man of many fine qualities, one whom it is a pleasure to meet, either in a social or business way. He has the great gift of approachableness, and the kind of tact and consideration which makes everyone at home in his environment.
