Our local merchants who do not ad-
vertise are in a large measure response
BILE for the increasing business of the
mail order houses. The latter flood the
country with catalogues and price lists
offering allu1ing bargains and in the ab-
sence of local price lists to the contrary
imagine that they are doing better by
sending away for goods than they can do
in the stores at home. Wise and per-
sistent advertising draws trade as moth

Things will never 60 smooth in this
country unless we get class of young
men willing to remain hired men and
girls equally willing to remain hired
girls, and this time is not coming right
away, for the flag and the school, the
pulpit and newspaper and the air we
breathe are each and all at work to make
discontented hired men and hired girls,
and the glory of America is that this
is so.
New Ulm review., 1901-08-21


The Review is in receipt of commu-
nication from resident of Lafayette in
which he criticises the correspondent to
the Review for saying that some of the
young men were ayerse to contributing
to entertainments. The writer of the
letter is not subscriber of the Review
but we are glad to make any correction
he desires. Our correspondent did not
say all of the young people were in
clined to discourage entertainments and
he made no statement that could be
taken to reflect upon anybody. The
Review has too high an opinion of the
people of Lafayette to allow anything
to pass through its issues that would
lead the most simple minded to believe
that any honest man was hobo. We
wish our friend would procure another
paper and more carefully read the item
and he will see that no such slur was
ever intended.
New Ulm review., 1901-08-21

According to the Mapleton Enterprise
large number of farmers in the north
ern part of the state who bought twine
of the T. M. Roberts supply house are
said to be still waiting for their twine.
Their cash has gone glimmering and in
order to save their crop they were com.
PEELED to 60 to the local merchant, who
stands by them when they have no cash
or when they are in trouble, and buy the
twlne on time. The plan of sending
cash away to department stores is
fraught with some danger and is hardly
fair to the home dealer who pays taxes
and helps to support your schools and
churches and thus enhances the value of
your real estate.
New Ulm review., 1901-08-21


What consistency is there in paper
advocating the building up of home en-
terprises, abusing the department stores
for their methods of doing business, ad-
vising people to avoid them and stick to
the home merchant, who builds up the
city, pays the taxes that provide educa-
tion for the children and in every way
contributes to the welfare and happiness
of the people, and then in that same
paper run forty inch ad from the same
department store. If man wants to
be white let him be all white and if he
wants to run paper for the good of the
people and the benefit of the city let him
see to it that the paper on which he
prints such sentiment does not contain
on the back of it direct lie to what he
says. This applies to papers right here
in New Ulm as well as outside of the
city.

Fighting the Fire Soon After it Broke Out.


II. the directors say II will not be as
fine a structure as that which MAS de-
stroyeu yesterday morning. The short
life of the lease would render this in
advisable, and the structure, while it
may be on the same general plan, will
not be so highly ornate. II was decid-
ed also, at the meeting, that for the
present the retail business of the cor
porat tion would be given up and all at
tention turned to the wholesale divi-
sion. The firms warehouse in Allen
street is filled with hardware, SO that
there will be no delays in filling any
orders which may come in. The office
of the company for the present will be
in the rooms over the Hawaiian Trust
and Investment Company, but the
business in general will be done at the
Allen street house. Mr., Hall called the
forty employees of the house together at
the warehouse yesterday morning and
apprsed them of the decision of the
firm to discontinue the retail business
for the present, as there was no avail
able storeroom in which the firm wishes
to open out again. He said that the
force would be decreased to about eight
men. and that the names of those who
would be retained would be announced
today. In time he hoped to have all the
old stan about him once more.
MIR. HALLS STATEMENT
Mr.. Hall said yesterday in discussing
the fire: Il have no theory as to it's
origin upon which | place any weight.
Some persons think il might have come
from our independent lighting system.
There was not live wire in the place
at the time. We had plant with
gasoline engine Then we had an aux
iliary system with the current from
the electric company. But the engine
was not running, the electric company
had not made its connections, SO that
there was no way in which there might
have been any current which could
have caused fire. The wiring was
put in with care and has been over
hauled recently. AS To gasoline there
was none in the house. The gasoline
for the engine was stored in a tank
which was located outside of the walls
under the pavement, There is a door
leading to this vault and you can see
not only that the sidewalk is in shape.
but as well that the door has not been
opened. This would dispose of any
theory that there had been fire from
the explosion of gasoline. There may
have been lighted cigarette or cigar
in the packing room. though that is
improbable.
We carried no more explosives or oil
in stock than the law allows. For in

electric light wires made a merry scare
for a time. 1t was with a flash and
burning that the wires came in con-
tact, but strangely, where there were
so many people on the streets, there
was not one hurt by these falling
wires. The police asked that the light
ing company take off it's current for
time, but this was not done. so that
the trouble was kept up until the end
of the fire-fighting. 1t was claimed
yesterday that there was only a light
current on the wires. but there was
sufficient to furnish many pretty illu-
limitations as the copper burned from
the high current
THE FIRE DEPARTMENT.
Fire Chief Thurston had merry
time from the announcement of the fire
until late yesterday afternoon. Speak
ing of the fire last evening he said:
AS soon as we arrived found that the
chemical engine was of no use and
stationed the large engines where they

people the day began at o'clock yes

The principal loss was that OF Il. o..
Hall 4 Son, Limited. in whose building

ing the loss will reach something like
$4,000. The building was one which
was erected by the firm last year, at
a cost of above $4,000 and fitted for
their business at an additional expense
of 10000. The building was built upon
leased property, the lease having yet
eighteen years to run. AS soon as the
debris can be cleared away the erection
of a new building on the old site will
begin. The new building was decided
upon al a meeting of the board of di-
rectors uf the company yesterday
morning, there being present Messrs.

expenses by retaining only those who

heads of departments"
LEVERS & COOKIES LOSSES.
Second in the point of loss is the
firm of Levers n Cooke. The burning
of the roof and the drenching of the
stock will cause an amount Of damage
which will reach nearly the full sum
of the insurance. The estimate of the
amount OF stock made by Mr.. +. w
Lowrey is $50, 600 and upon this there is
1880 of insurance. All damage to the
building is fully covered The loss on
the wall paper is concerned. There will
be some salvage en- the stock of paints
and oils, and also on some of the hard
ware and the nails. 1t is thought this
will bring the total loss we'll inside the
amount of insurance There will be lit

this firm as well. Before the Hall ruins

perhaps some for high-class wall paper
but new stocks are being ordered at
once, so that there will be practically
no stoppage of business.
There was some small losses in the
Pacific Hardware Company from water

there seemed no chance to do anything
for the Hall building, as it had its doom
sealed. ! never saw a fire which made
such progress. 1t simply walked through
the building. When we saw it first 1t
seemed to be confined to the Waikiki
end of the ground floor. but 1t took only
few minutes to have it all over the
building ana to make it impossible to
save anything. SO we began TO throw
streams on the other buildings. We had
some hard times of it for the fire was
fierce in every way. 1t was so hot that
the horses would not draw the engines
near it and we had to station them off
a block.
"One thing which was shown to be
necessary was that we have the use of
ladders at once. The Legislature put
into the appropriation bill an item for
a hook and ladder outfit but there was
no provision for the salaries of the
men to handle il. We shall try and
make some arrangement for it. The
need was shown when we had to send
men to the roof of the Levers & Cooke
building and then drop light ropes to
SeTu up tnt lines or nose. The men
made brave fight to save the sur
rounding property, and that we were
so successful must be laid in part to
the fact that there was little wind
blowing. Had there been n high wind
there would have been difficulty in
keeping the fire within bounds. have
not completed my investigation of the
cause but there may be something in
the theory that the blaze started from
combustion in some old oil-soaked rags
I'VE We're in very good shape, for
while We had all the active engines at
work. with the exception of the chem
ical. we had two here in shape for
work but which were not called out.
The only thing which we would need to
make them of use would be crews to
work them, and this we would have to
furnish from volunteers. Altogether we
did well with the material at hand and
had great fortune in saving all the sur
rounding property"

More War in Suffer.

Last Sunday, about three o'clock in
the afternoon, Jack Harris, a miner,
who was drunk and spelling for fight,
went to his home near the bridge, in
Suffer Creek, and proceeded to make
things lively. He drew a knife and
started in on a carving matinee. His
wife, who is slowly recovering from an
operation recently performed, was at
home with her brother, Jim LeDeux,
when Harris started in to do the knife
act. Yong LeDeux, to protect his
sister, Mrs. Harris, also himself, landed
one on Harris nose, which lay him
fiat OF his back on the floor. Mrs.
Harris ran screaming from the house,
arousing all the neighbors and crea ting
great excitement. Officer Rose, who
was near by, rushed in and took
charge of Harris.
Later:-Since writing the above the
news has been received at the Ledger
Office that after Harris had been ar
rested no one would prosecute him, so
he was discharged.
