Oil Sprinkling.

Two representatives Of the Standard
OIL Co., j. D. Hsrbeck Of Chicago and
I. Prather of Manksto, met with the,
city council Thursday evening to con-
fer with the said body 10 regard to the
advisability of substituting oil for
water ir sprinkling the streets of New
Ulm. Messrs. Hsrbeck and Prather
pointed out the economy and advanta-
ges of using oil for this purpose to the
city fathers who finally decided to put
their claims to test on one OF the
busiest business blocks on Minnesota
Street with the future prospect of more
extensive utilization of that sprinkling
medium should the experiment prove
satisfactory. TWAS estimated tina
the sprinkling of that portion to be
experimental upon now costs about
5000.
Our readers may remember the
article in the Review some weeks ago
and note the line of reasoning in it as
the same which the city fathers seem
to be following out now. We
would feel proud to think that our
suggestions resulted in valuable inn
provement for the city.

Citizenship in New Zealand.

Too much has sometimes been ex'
pected of New Zealand. She has been
asked in some quarters, that's, to live
up to ideals created for her by over
enthusiastic admirers. When she has
failed, as sometimes has been lnev-
itably the case, her critics have been
ready to compare her performances
with promises she has never put
forward on her own account, and on
the strength of this system OF false
measurement, to reach conclusions
entirely at variance with the facts.
New Zealand has never been land OF
dreams or dreamers. 1t was cOlonlzed
by high average of rational human
beings, and these from time to time
have adopted methods OF government
suited to their desires and to their
needs. The great advantage they have
enjoyed and the great success they
have achieved are both due to the fact
that, having the right material to start
with, they started rightly.
Few communities that have moved,
or have attempted to move, along
progressive lines have had SO little to
undo. Each step has been taken with
care and elaboration, and every step
has been prompted by the desire to
make New Zealand better country
for New Zeslsnders than for any In
dividual or any group of individuals.
Whatsoever New Zealand has accom-
plished in the way OF bestowing upon
her people broader measure OF con-
tentment than is visible elsewhere has
been due to her determination to seek
the greatest coed for the greatest
number.
New Zealand is q land of thrift, OF
industry, of competence, of equitable
distribution, speaking relatively. Her
individual citizen is not ''out for him
SELF or blindly seeking 1.-THE main
chance" In the first place. neither is
desirable and neither is necessary
under the New Zealand system. This
fact explains the comparative freedom
of New Zealand political and COM
mercial life from what Americans
denominate Is graft.
From all the evidence in sight Of
present, New Zealand is solving her
problems - she set out to solve them,
and in doing 90 she has created .
stand ard of citizenship that is her
highest product, and should be her
greatest boast. A country where the
first consideration of the citizen Is the
good of the public stands out as an
object lesson to modern civilization.

tue WORLDS cRAlARY
Though United States Leads all
Nations Ia Production Little
Grain Is Exported.

Last year the United States pro-
duced Is per cent Of the corn Of the
world, 80 per cent Of the oats and 20
per cent Of the wheat, and It was done
upon per cent OF the land.
The average annual production OF
cereals in this country is about five
thousand million bushels. These
figures are SO stupendous that the
q erage mind cannot comprehend
them.
And yet of all the corn grown in
this country, and there were 3, 1885,
600, 900 bushels of it, only about 2 per
cent was exported.
This shows the wonderful consump-
tive power of the people ofthe United
States. No nation In the history OF
the world has had such record.
The prosperity of country and its
standard of civilization are deter
mined by its ability to consume the
products Of its soil. This is shown by
comparison between the peoples
ofIndia and the United States, as
the former with its nearly 800, 00O, 900
people exports AL per cent Of its
$50, 600, 900 bushels of wheat which is
only about half of the production in
this country.
The other wheat growing sections
OF the world which are backward in
the scale Of material progress show
about tho same record % India.

Boy Scout Movement.

AS free American citizen the
writer has never favored anything
that smacked of5militarism and there
fore he could never see anything good
coming out Of the boy scout movement
which actually is nothing more or less
than q fine, subtle method OF Turing
the unsuspecting youth into the liking
OF the Anticipated and barbarian
soldierism. Yet, we never said much
against or in favor of the movement,
believing that in course Of time 1t will
either stand on its own merits or be
cast aside as silly fad, as something
that is absolutely out of harmony with
progress and modern civilization,
Ho .sver, we confess that We are no
longer son the fence" since we have
had this movement practically demon
strated by company of sixteen scouts
passing through New Ulm on their
vsy from Granite Falls to the cities.
Since that time we are strictly opposed
to a movement which takes the youth
away from the tender and loving
parental care placing him under a
so-called discipline which is killing
the child like, youthful disposition OF
mind. The youngest in the crowd
we're mere children having barely
reached the age OF eleven. Think OF
Il! Your eleven year old child 10
taken away from your care and super
vision for . period OF at least four
weeks and during all that time he
tramps along the country roads with
q man over him who knows nothing
else than the strict obedience OF the
soldier.' What interest has that
s'scout master" in your boy, beyond
the GLORIOUS demonstration of the
military" Some OF the boys were
stability clothed; they all looked worn
out and had q haggard, homesick
expression on their countenance. You
could not help but pity these poor
children and entertain contempt for
the careless criminslly parents
Parents who shift sacred duty and
responsibility from their shoulders
onto those Of one who knows nothing
of tenderness and charity, but on the
contrary who Is intoxicated with the

pline? Cant discipline be taught IN

us the benefits for the human society
arising from this boy.scout movement
and We will point out . hundred dis
advantages against your one. Disci-
pline? Mephisto in Hades sneers at
the absurd assertion that stranger
can exercise more discipline than the
parents. These 'hikes" create the
tramp spirit within the tender heart OF
the youth and make him unfit for any
decent calling in later years. Ifyou
give your boy over to the scout move
ment you have made him an unthink'
ing automaton, machine.like being

The Price Of Coal.

There i, 1 coal dealer In Buffalo
Who 10 franker than most. Interviewed
by the Buffalo News the other day
about the price OF coal, he said: y
have no more TO do with It than the
man in the moon. The list Of prices
| ia sent here from Philadelphia and
have to follow it. I have nothing g
do with fixing the prices
That the coal business Is different
from most other retail lines 10 that
prices are fixed for the retailers In
stead of by them has been generally
suspected by the most obtuse says the
Duluth Daily Herald. The curious
coincidence that coal OF q given grade
costs the same no matter what dealer
you buy it from must have impressed
itself upon most people. Some have
snspected q combination between re-
tailers. but that doesn't 60 deep
enough. The retailers in given
community might combine to fix
prices, but that wouldn't account Tor
the fact that coal in all other nearby
communities costs exactly the same
except as freight rates make 9
difference. That might lead to the
inference that there is q statewide
combination of retailers were It not
or the fact that the situation Is the
same across state boundaries.
So fixed is this situation that 1t has
become commonplace. Coal goes up,
Int never comes down. It's price II
fixed by those who are interested solely
in getting the utmost possible profits
out of It. The needs of the multitudea
that require coal to warm themselves,
TO cook their food and to operate their
factories are not considered in the
least.
And every pound Of this coal at one
time was common property. It va
created for humanity, and it belonged
to the people. They let private
interests get control of it, and nov
they are paying the penalty.
It is worth while occasionally to
turn some OF these commonplaces In.
side out and upside down SO % to gel
q new angle of vision upon them. IL
this case it is worth while because II
reveals the enormity of q situation
under which selfish private interests
control the supply and dictate the
prices of q commodity which every
human being needs, and under which
the common interests of the many
receive no consideration whatever.
What is to be done about 1t? mol
much, perhaps. Perhaps . great deal,
For one thing, in such circumstances
it seems rather ridiculous 70 keep
tariff duties on coal, when that meen
simply adding 90 much to the profits
of monopoly. For another, It seems
not only aosurd but wicked to let what
remaiuing supplies Of coal the people
own slip into the hands OF private
interests. That 10 what PinchOt and
Garfield and Roosevelt have been
talking about when they opposed
letting Morgan and the Guggenheims
acquire for song the rich coal
deposits of Alaska.
But if the people have the courage
and the will, they might do more thar
take the duties of coal and preserve
for the common good the remaining
public supplies of coal. They nigh
regulate the corporations engaged il
the mining, shipping and sale OF coal
They might even, at q pinch, con
denim for public uses all privateI.
owned coal fields and operate them TO
the common good.
