New Ulm review. (New Ulm, Brown County, Minn.) 1892-1961, 1899-02-08
Give the Countrya. Chance,

We notice q commendable disposition
this year on the part Of the people and
press throughout the state to demand
that the Common and High schools Of
the state be looked after little more
carefully By our legislators.
The tendency Of late years has been
to appropriate nearly all state funds
available for educational purposes to
the State University and our four Normal
schools. The cities favored with these
Institutions have made common cause
and have COTTON about all they have
seen fl to ask, to which the country
members have tacitly consented, forget
ting that there are other schools nearer
to the people that are deserving Of con-
siderat1on and attention and that have
been neglected in the rush made by
higher institutions upon the resources Of
the state. .sl
It must be remembered that the great
majority of our boys and girls do not
get beyond the common schools and that
the village High schools are really the
schools that supply the demand Of young
people for fair education. OF course,
it is contended that without the Normal
schools the Common and High schools
would not have competent INSTRUCTORS.
The supply of competsnt teachers is now
ample, however, and, besides, it is not
proposed to shut up those institutions
but simply TO call halt in further ex-
tension of them and look little closer
after the immediate interests Of the
schools In which the rudiments of edu.
cation are taught.

Farmers Propose to Raise the Prioe OF
Their Products. }S
Move on Foot Supported by. Bonanza
Farmers.

G. II. Hopkins, Of Faiftax, the leading
promoter Of the scheme to organize
farmers under the name Of .The Grain
Growers Association for the purpose
of controlling the price of wheat and
other farm products, was in town one
day last week consulting with business
men and leading farmers in regard to
the project. He is very enthusiastic ov-
er this attempt to better the condition
of the farmers and claims that is the on
.ly practical way to solve the question Of
agricultural depression. He contends,
and not without reason, that every pos
sible trade, profession and line of busl-
ness, is now organized for the purpose
of promoting and bettering its particu-
lar members irrespective of effects and
upon the rest of society.
Large corporations and manufacturing
enterprises form trusts and combina-
tions for the purpose of increasing their
income and that upon tins sea of organ
lied corporate entrlties the farmer has
for years been drifting unprotected and
jolted about by any interest that might
seek to make him prey. When he
has considered his condition unbearable
he has gone to Legislative halls for pro-
lection Dut has invariably found that but
little could be done in his behalf and
that often even that little would be re.
fused because the representatives of 9th
er interests dominate and control those
bodies. So many fruitless attempts have
been made in this way that the farmer
land those dependent upon him, such al
the business men, especially of small
towns and villages, have grown tired O.
those methods and now propose to take
the matter up in practical way.
The idea is to form huge corpora
ton covering the Northwestern whea
Igrowing states and to enlist in its sup
port the small millers, business men ant
professional men closely identified will
farm interests. The corporation viii
build chain of elevators with larg
storage houses a, the terminals. Suth
cient capital would be available to buy

Mr.. Hopkins claims that much inter
est is being taken in this by grain grow
ers everywhere and that the bonanz'
farmers Of the Dakotas are in the deal
A committee is now at work and larg'
meeting will be held in ST. Paul in nn,
to fix more definitely the objects ane
limits of the undertaking. The move
ment has been in an embryotic state fo1
some time and the conditions now seen
to be ripe for carrying it into successful
execution.

Deafness Cannot .. Cured.

By local applications as they
cannot reach the diseased portion
of the ear. There is only one way
to cure deafness, and that is by
constitutional remedies. Deafness
is caused by an inflamed condition
of the mucous lining of the eu-
stachian tube. When this tube is
inhamed you have a rumbling
sound or imperfect hearing, and
when il is entirely closed, deafness
is the result, and unless the in
flammation can be taken out and
this tube restored to its normal
condition, hearing will be destroyed
forever; nine cases out of ten are
caused by catarrh, which is moth
ing but an inflamed condition Of
the mucous surfaces. 81 s.

Eugene Dingman, who is
charged with the larceny of S35
from Charles Hulsey, farm hand
in the employ of Charles Peterson,
OF the Holbrook country, was
tried in the county court Wednes-
day morning before Judge Miller.
Young Dingman was placed on the
stand and admitted having taken
the money. He claimed that
Peterson owed him 81. so, and as
he could not get it and needed the
money, he concluded to steal the
s35 and owe his employer the
change. He also admitted having
stolen two bicycles from the depot
platform in this city and one from
in front Of the city hall in Pueblo.
Dingman bought 3S-calibre
Smith & Wesson revolver with a
portion Of the money, and when
arrested the gun and $40 were
found upon his person. The gun
and the money were turned over
to Hulsey to recompense him in
part for his loss. Judge Miller
sentenced the young man to the
industrial school at Golden during
his minority, and he was taken to
that institution by Sheriff Barr
Thursday morning. Dingm n
claims that he will be sixteen years
of age next August.

circled the globe four times on

a book of his travels that he says
will be ready for publication after
his return from the Philippines.
Shorty says he has over 500 pages
written, but wants to make it an
even thousand, and says it will be
a cracker-jack, being interesting
from start to finish.
Through all his travels he has
never paid cent Of fare either on
land or sea, and has newspaper
clippings, signatures, kilograms
and other means Of Identification
from nearly every prominent city
on the globe, credentials which he
considers sufficient to carry him

4 stAa ROCK Parry.
." Which Some Young tsdies Nave
Their First Expssisaes With .
Festive Coyote.

Last Friday morning Jolly set
OF young folks set out for Bear
Rock to take in the sights. After
they had arrived and recovered
from their long and tedious Jour
ney, the boys erected tent for
the girls to sleep in, and then the
crowd started for Bear Rock, over
the hills and far away.
The meals were well enjoyed,
with the exception that the cook
had to use ashes for pepper. On
the last night out the wolves were
bowling and the girls in the tent
became frightened and pulled the
flap of the tent higher and the fol-
lowing dialogue was heard above
the gentle breeze:
"Humpy, oh Humpy, what was
that?"
THAT was a grey wolf" said
Humpy.
Then there came an awful
scream and the girls all put their
heads under the bed clothes and
tried to sleep, but oh no, there
was no sleep for the weary that
night, for the wind threatened to
blow the tent away, and it kept
everyone busy holding it down.
The girls lay in their tent talk
ing, when one of them asked:
"What does a grey wolf look
likea"
"Why, il is as big as COW and
has great long horns," answered
another without cracking smile.
"Oh my, wouldn't it be awful if
it should come in at the tent with
it's head down." remarked one
timid damsel with look OF horror
in her beautiful eyes.
Miss Lillian Grimes took first
prize as climber, and Bert Polk as
josher.
Two OF the young men got up
from the supper table and without
saying word, left the camp and
came to town on load of wood,
and the rest OF the crowd thought
that they were lost in the hills,
until they got in town and saw
them here safe and sound.
We all enjoyed the trip and
all want TO go again soon, onr
only disappointment being that
we could not bring "bear rock"
home with us. We came home
Sunday evening, leaving the rock
behind.
Those who went were Chas.
Benton, Frank Turley, Mamie
Mendelson, Bert and Yes. Polk,
Chas. Gorsuch, Misses Lillian and
Ethel Grimes, Sara Mendelson,
Frances Weir, Ula Foxworthy,
with Mrs. Grant Harbour as chap
