Various papers throughout the1state
have been publishing the sums Of the
improvements Of the year and the differ
ent buildings that have been erected and
it is astonishing the vast amount of ma
terial that has gone into buildings and
the amount of money that has been ex.
pended for Improvements, not alone in
the cities but more especially in the
country tIlroughout the state. New Ulm
has not been tagging IN this interest and
is well to the front, and it is easy to see
why the price of lumber is higher than
for many years. It is estimated that
there has been more building this year
than in any other one year III the history
of this country. It is significant because
if these Improvements have all been paid
for it represents an era of prosperity that
is unequalled and if they are not paid for
it implys that IN the case of hard times
there is going to be an inevitable panic
as bad or worse than that of 1913
New Ulm review. (New Ulm, Brown County, Minn.) 1892-1961, 1903-01-14

If the legislature wants to do some
thing practical for good roads let it pass
law compelling the payment Of poll
tax in cash instead of work. When that
Is done the curse of poor highways is
largely abolished. .

One of the main issues at the election of the
new Board of Town Commissioners in May, 1896
was the substitution of stone sidewalks for the
board sidewalks which had been renewed over
and again during the last thirty years. 1t was
understood at the time that the laying of perma.
nent sidewalks throughout the town would incur
a heavy expense in the first cost but that in the
end it would be good economy.
During the seven years since that Board was
elected, some of which are still members Of this
Board, there haye :been Twenty-Five carloads of
flag stones bought and laid in the Borough.
The 2glpads of.stope cost at the quarry, $685. 50
The freight on the same was 1l46.24
Making total cost of s379S. SO
at the Depot: before any expense was added to the
same for hauling and laying, which cost several
hundred dollars more
In the Summary of Assets, these sidewalks to-
gether with the thing and other permanent i'm
provements on the streets are scheduled at
S27S3 So, only a small amount over and above
what the stone cost at the quarry.
