True. he is a great land owner. a prince and

mere noble instead OF the head OF one of the
mediatiZed houses Of Germany, does not enjoy
anything like the same standing at Berlin or
the same prestige and goodwill in the non

seems to have failed to such degree of late
that his retention Of his post of Ambassador at
Vienna is longer possible. At least this is
the reason given for his impending withdrawal
into private life. the Austrian Government hav-

Denver. Nov. S-The announcement that King

matter. and to make personal Investigation OF
Colorado and other great gold fields of the
United States In return Mr.. Walsh agreed to
examine some Of King Leopold's South African
mining prospects. which promise rich returns.

TO THE CONVENTIONS.

- f ~
This week and next week New Ulm
throws open her gates to the outside IN
welcome to two conventions: First, the
Congregational conference today, tomor-:
row and possibly Thursday and the State
Firemens' convention next Tuesday,
Wednesday and Thursday. To both OF
these conventions the citizens Of New
Ulm extend equal welcome and if while
in the city the guests fail to enjoy them
selves it will be because they came here
with set purpose to be miserable. No
prettier place exists in the state where is
afforded natural opportunity for enjoy
ment than in this city and in seeking to
have people come here the city wants
them to enjoy their visit and upon
returning tell their friends Of the many
good things to be found in New Tim,
It's expected that the Firemens' con.
vention will bring very large number
Of people here and preparations have
been made accordingly. The local fire
men should be willingly seconded il
their efferts to provide the best.

BOER WAR ENDS.

The South African war is over so far as
the Boer nation is concerned and all the
blood of brave men drank~in by the soil
of their own republic has been spilled in
vain. From fifty battle fields the spirits
of dead patriots protest against the re-
version of right, and yet there can be no
doubt but that the spirit OF progress has.
dominated and the South African coun-#
try under English rule will develop into
a greater nation than under the slow
rule of the clannish Boer. The principal
cause of the war lay in the fact that the
Beers we're opposed to the advanced
methods of the English; they opposed
railroads because it would deprive men
of an opportunity to be the common car
riers; they opposed factories because It
deprived men of vocation that for.
years had been their means of livelihood.
It is principle in the history Of all ma
lions that no people can exist side by
side with another and fail to advance in
in equal ratio. Ignorance cannot cope
with intelligence, savagery cannot cope
with civilization and people who fail to
take advantage of the example set by
more progressive nations will eventually
be forced to do so. Spain felt the force
of this, China must eventually pick up:
and become modernized, the Philippines
will not be relinquished until they can
be classed as progressive nation and
the Boer Republic would not have been
annihilated if 1t had not opposed that
which would have made it great. Type
setting machines annihilated the PRINT
ers' unions but they made greater news
papers, SC always the law of progression
and not retrogression over-rides all SEN
timent, dashes to the ground all eur
household idols and sets up a kindom in
the midst of the fondest dreams of the
past. No man or nation lives to him
self. We are bound together as one fam
lily and the lot of our destiny rougi
hewn as we may make it, is fashioned b!
the ideas of others; SO the Boer Repub
lie peopled by men who loved their fire
sides and their homes, content with l1f
as they found it, refusing to make use Q
the riches with which nature had blesse,
them went down as the result of desti
nv that has marked the future of al
countries. -.@r<.'. l.
