New Ulm review. (New Ulm, Brown County, Minn.) 1892-1961, 1900-03-21
Why this Year is not Leap Year.

Here is a question that many people
are frequently propounding to the news
papers: "Does not leap year occur every
four years2 The last leap year was in
1896. Why is not 1900 one7 Why had
not this past = February twenty;nine
days2" The question is here answered by
the St. Louis Post Dispatch: julius Cae-
sar's calendar made each year contain
precisely 3654 days. But in reality it
contained between ten and eleven min
utes less. Thus in 12s Gears the legal
year would have lost one day on the
solar year. By the time the Gregorian
calendar was made, ten days had been
lost. To remedy this: October a, 1852,
was ar rbitrarily made to follow directly
after October 8, 1852. To avert such an
other elimination Of time, it was decreed
that thenceforth no centurail year not
5diyisible by 400 should be .. leap year.
By the present plan the legal year loses
q day on the solar year onl once in
over $500 years.

! What It Will Cost.

G. G. Andrews, chief forest fire ward
en-, has sent out the following statement
showing the probable cost of the pro-
posed national park which it is desired
to establish in the northern part of the
state.
!, The proposed park comprises 21s,4 ,470
acres Of water surface and GIL 1922 acres
of land. OF the latter 121 1902 acres, in
scattered localities, have been allotted to
Indians, leaving 4S9, 100 acres to- be paid
for. OF this latter 100000 acres in
ssoand nunabers,@an no moro, may bea re-
garded as merchantable spine lands.''
By spine lands" is meant, according to
the Interior Departments construction
of Indian treaties and public land laws,
lands that are valuable for the merchant
able standing pine thereon; all other
lands, whether bearing jack or scrub
pine or other sorts of timber, are con-.
sldered, under the existing treaty with
the Indians as agricultural lands, ," and
when proclaimed as open to settlement
may be~taken in 160-acres tracts at $1.25
per acre by actual settlers under home
stead law conditions as to residence and
cultivation. Although the greater part
of these lands technically designated
agricultural lands" are not desirable
for farming and would not be taken up
for cultivation for many years, if ever,
yet IN any new negotiations with the
Chippewa Indians to obtain the land i'm
bulk the government naturally would
have to pay for it at the rate of $1.25san
acre, which one remembers that there are
millions of acres of land in northern
Minnesota which have been open to
homestead settlers for thirty years and
that are still vacant; and that railroad
company sold similar land to- the state
for part of the Itasca Park at so cents
an acre. The estimates of the spine
lands" in the proposed park have not
been published, but the statistics of
quantities and values of s.pine lands'' on
the Red Lake reservation, where the
pine was as good if not better than in
the proposed park, will enable one to
arrive at a reasonable safe conclusion as
te their value. The annual report of
the Commissioner of the General Land
Office shows that 291 ,348 acres Of Chip
peWa pine lands lave been estimated
and that. the value Of the same was found
to be $1,774,72s at So per thousand It.
Since then the average price Of standing
pine IN Minnesota has risen to 81 per
thousand feet board measure) which,
would make the pine lands worth IS an
acre. Accordingly. fair valuation of
the LOG, 600 acres Of pine lands in the
proposed park would be $500, 900, to.
which add the value Of the so-called ag-.
cultural lands, $4s7, 900, gives s., 1,2s7,-
900 as q fair valuation of the park To
make It surely ample, let us say IN round
numbers 81, 500 900, which should be
paid to the Indians as the price of the
park.
The Milwaukee News says that the
aim Of s1McC Carthy' s Mishaps'' iss ito
IcIeat- as much merIiment as possible,
and adds that the result is that patrons
are receiving very full value. 3 Opera

The Men Behind the Hops.

Chronicle Telegraph.
About the man behind the gun we many
times have heard,
And by his gallantry in war our hearts
have often stirred;
And nov we're adding to the list OF those
VINO stay on top
Another hero born of Wharf.-The man behind
the kop.
For many weeks the British hosts have
fought the doughty Beers
Amid the hills of Africa, down near the
southern shores;
But though composed of soldiers true the
British army stops
Each time that it goes up against the men
behind the kops.
Upon both sides are soldiers bold and
leaders just as brave,
But Beers are quick to seize advantages
that nature gave;
And every time the British charge a deadly
A storm of leaden hail from guns of men
behind the kops.
In vain across the open veldt old Eng
lands fighters dash,
In vain their shrapnel and their shells
against the hillsides crash;
For there Destruction stalks and Death
keeps adding to his crops
The victims of the bullets fired by men
behind the kops.
In vain are all the we'll laid plans of
leaders known to fame,
They see their soldiers melt before the
Beers unerring aim;
And vain now seems the BritonS' hope of
coming out on top
Unless he gets to rearward of the men
behind the kop.

A CRY OF DISTRESS.

We don't often hear trusts and COM
binations denounced by men promin-
ent in the great business world, for
the simple reason that so far all the
combinations have been formed by
men of means for their own benefit,
and without thought or regard for the
general public welfare. So far as
those interested in the big combines
are concerned, the public may pay the
price or go to the demnition bow
vows, just as it pleases. The trusts
fill up on water and then advance sell
ing rates SO as to leave a handsome
margin of profit, while the people foot
the bill, through enforced purchases,
with whatever grace they can sum-
mon.
When workmen combine, however,
it is another matter, and a holy howl
goes up An instance is just afforded
in the statement made by H. L. Chap
man, a prominent coal operator, before
the miners conference at indianapolis.
He took the position that in organic
ing the miners were endeavoring to
form a trust, and said:
DO you know what this defence fund
you will attempt to raise means? 1t means
you will be forced to control every bust
ness interest in the country, that you will
control all of the great railroad systems
of the continent, and control all of the
steamship lines entering or leaving its
control the domestic consumption and say
whether or not the poor people of this land
shall have fuel to cook their humble meals
with. This will be nothing more or less
than one gigantic trust n you will be
the stockholders"
This is a sad case, and the heart of
the great American people will go out
in sincere sympathy to the great cor
po%rations who may be compelled,
through a slightly increased mining
rate to the prosperous men who earn
their living in the darkness and dan
gers of the mines, to pay a small adj
vance per ton on coal. The miners,
surely, ought to have some considera-
ton for the operators and the big con-
sumers. for have not the operators
and the industrial and other trusts al
ways looked after the interests and
welfare of the workman?
