are a power in politics, just how

an eye-opener.

of his yearly income to the church.
What becomes of this vast income. -
Of these yearly titheborn millions?
Here is a mighty money power, un-
guessed by the outside world. In the

able to no one, it is sufficient to give
them finger in every Western money

of railroads, banks, mines and manu-

has Senator Smoot with this powerful

church lifts its finger, Mr.. Taft and
the Republican party must take notice?

Travelling with Taft.

With Jhe April issue of Human
Life Alfred Henry Lewis concludes his
profoundly interesting series of ar
sicles entitled 3'Traveling With Taft"
which began with the December num-
Der.
In this instalment Mr.. Lewis lays
bare some astonishing facts connected
with the Utah end of the presidential
.junket, which are the keys to much
that has been puzzling in the situa-
tion. In Utah the great purpose was
to construct a Taft machine. Thus it
was that Reed Smoot and committee
of his fellow Mormons, ..more or less
deeply welded, received Mr.. Taft and
conveyed him to their Tabernacle,
where he spoke, while the Gentle
press, bitterly resentful yet mindful
that he was the guest of their city, ex-
planned that the Mormons had be-
Srayed his innocent ignorance. This
was a shrewd and far-seeing move of

Neurology and Penology.

The professors of neurology in three
eastern medical colleges. have issued
a protest against the customary futile
treatment of cases of drunkenness in
the courts. The victim of alcoholism
is usually either fined or sent to the
workhouse, thus depriving his family
of the money needed for it's support.
II he becomes a chronic inebriate he
is sent to a hospital, treated for a
while and then left to resume bis bad
habits.
In accordance with the suggestion
of the neurologists bill has been in
troduced into the New Y ork legislature
providing that a fine for the first
offense shall be collected in INSTALL
ments, and the culprit not taken from
his work. The punishment for the
persistent offender may be accompa-
MED by medical treatment. The plan
is to provide special institution where
inebriates may receive treatment and
be given healthful outdoor work.
This is in line with the modern ideas
of penology, that the aim of punish
ment should be reformatory rather
than vindictive. In the case Of the
inebriate there is peculiar appeal
for consideration of the man IS family
if he have one, and he usually has. Il

Our City.

There is no room for doubt but that
our city with the united efforts Of its
enterprising citizens can greatly in
crease it's business and enhance the
value of property. Why is it that
other towns in Minnesota smaller in
size and with less natural advantages
than New Ulm, are attracting capital
and induce moneymen to erect factories
and invest in some enterprise? 1t is
because these towns are wide awake,
watch their opportunity and liberally
advertise their social, municipal and
natural advantages. They have faith
in themselves and therefore they
attract. The high standard of our
citizens ought to be an inducement for
many to locate. The opportunities Of
our educational institutions is a
feature greatly apprecj ated by all
people who look for new home. AS
"a trading and shipping point our city
ought to be among the leaders of
Southern Minnesota. No place of it's
size in this section of the state receives
greater shipments Of merchandise or
sends out more live stock, grain and
flour.
Now, let US work and stimulate
every legitimate enterprise by inviting
and giving it all the friendly en-
.couragement we can, and unite our
industry, intelligence and capital in a
common cause for the good of our
city Let US cultivate a public spirit
and talk less and work more. Let US
forget the differences Of the past and
Invite a bright and hopeful future.
Speak up, speak we'll, talk encou-
raging]y Of our city and it's bright
prospects. 1t is these many little
considerations that make town grow.
Nature has showered upon us her
choicest blessing and with perfect
unity and effort for the good of our
common cause, great will be the result.

HALLEY'S COMET
When to Look for it.

Halley's comets visit to the skies, af-
ter an absence of Is years, is one of
the events of lifetime. While the
popular frenzy and superstition asso-
ciated with it's appearance in 1856 are
not to be looked for, it is safe to say
that the nightly presence of this mon
ster of celestial depths will excite uni
versal interest. It is with a view of
enabling onu to keep track of this
stranger that the following dates and
facts are brought together:
April Comets distance, 13O, ,O0O,-
