events of this kind ever offered them. &
One of the most interesting features
will be demonstration in farming by

the people generally should have be given
the opportunity to witness this. Not the
it will be generally adopted, but it shows
the possibilities Of the future. There will
be a demonstration in tillage, ditchEd dig

Last year scarcely any OF the high
school pupils attended the University
Week lectures. This was mistake.
Another mistake was the presence OF
small children without their parents at
che afternoon sessions. They were very
aoisy at times, and those times were of
course the very times when the older
people most wished to hear what the
speaker was saying, for as the talk grew
more interesting to the grown-ups it be-
same less and less so to the tiny ones.
This year make up your mind to keep the
small lads and lassies at home if you can
not take the time to go yourself and see
chat they are kept reasonably quiet.
Then if you have half grown girls and
Seys encourage thier attendance. They
are the ones who can profit most by the
work as their futures are still all before
zhem and their eyes may be opened to
the beauties of culture and education.
It may awaken them to realization of
what place they are meant to fill in life
and get out OF the drifting habits that
are so likely to beset youth that has not
yet found it's aim. 1t is shame to waste
any of the good that may be obtained
thru the week here.

named counties, for which trophies will
be arranged, and the indications are that
several teams will be in the contest.
There will also be speeches by some of
the leading men in the state. The full
program will be announced later.
We would like to have every man,
woman and child have an opportunity to
be present at this meeting. It will APP
peal especially to farmers, bankers, bust
ness men and those having property in
terests in southern Minnesota. The
farmers are invited to bring their wives
and spend profitable day together.

THE FOLLY OF 1T ALL.

The present time seems opportune to
make clear to ourselves just what war
srally is. Different definitions have been
advanced at different times. One that,
SO CUR mind. covers the ground quite
shoroly is that. of Thomas Carlyle in
'Sartor Resartus.' We quote:
What, speaking in quite unofficial
language, is the net purport and upshot
Of var? To my own knowledge, for
example, there dwell: and toll in the
British village of Dumdrudge usually
some five hundred souls. From these,
by certain natural enemies" of the
French, there are successfully selected,
during the French war, say thirty able
uodied men; Dumdrudge, at her own
expense; has sucked and nursed them;
She has, not without difficulty and sorrow,
fed them up to manhood, and even trained
z11em to crafts, so that one can weave,
another build, another hammer, and the
weakest can stand under thirty stone
;ayoirdupois Nevertheless, amid much
Keeping and swearing, they are selected;
I'll dressed in red; and shipped away at
che public charges, some two thousand
miles, or say only to the south of Spain;

And now to that same spot, in the
south al Spain, are thirty similar French
artisans, from d French Dumdrudge, in
ike manner vending; till at length, after
,ssfinite effort, the two parties come into
actual juxtaposition; and Thirty stands
fronting Thirty, each with gun in his

FIXING THE RESPONSIBILITY.

F1AlNG The RESPONSIBILITY Y.
Altho the daily press hiss given some
accounts Of the civil war recently waged
in the Colorado strike zone, it has main
tanned studied silence as to the true con-
ditions and the causes that led up to the
bloodshed. Judge Lindsey of Denver
rendered an inestimable. service to the
people of this country when he called, a
spade spade and told the newspaper re-
porters of Chicago the facts about the
atrocities that had been committed in the
Ludlow district. Judge Lindsey was on
his way to Washington to beg President
Wilson not to withdraw the federal troops
as their withdrawal might plunge the
entire state of Colorado into civil war
1t is we'll that these statements were
made by a man so we'll known for his
honesty and sincerity as is Judge Lind
sey. Almost anyone else making the
statements that are attributed to him
would have been put down as an exag-
gerator Of the facts. According to Judge
Lindsey the true story Of what occurred
at Ludlow is too horrible to print. He.
then went on to state that children Of
tender years were killed and their heads
blown off, that mothers who went to res
cue their babes were shot down and mutt
tated and that father who went to the
militia camp for his little boy was saluted
with the headless corpse Of the child. It
does not require a great stretch of the
Imagination to sense what the othe

SILVER WEDDING CELEBRATED.

It was rs years Friday since Fred
Pfaender and his estimable wife plighted
their tr0th at the John F. Neumann
home but owing to the illness of their
little daughter Therese, Mr.. and Mrs.
Pfaender decided to let this notable
anniversary pass by without a celebra
ton. But the event was not allowed to
60 unnoticed. Upon their return Friday
afternoon from Meyers Creek where
they had gone for drive they found
their home on North Broadway in
possession of members of their families
who showered, them with presents and
good wishes and proceeded to make
the occasion a memorable one. Mr..
and Mrs. Charles Hauser and Mrs.
Chas. Albrecht of St. Paul came here
expressly for the occasion and later
some of the close friends of the family
called and spent the evening. About
8 o'clock a band of six pieces gotten up
by Capt. JOS Hofmeister and Otto
Zupfer rendered an enjoyable serenade.
Mr.. Pfaender was born at Fl. Ridgely
October 8, 1863 and has lived in New
Ulm practically all his life and his wife
who was born here July 6, 1871 has
always made New Ulm her home. Both
have host of friends who wish them
well for the years to come.

Costly and inexcusable as this sacrifice
has been, it may not have been in vain,
if the lesson it teaches has been so vel
learned that there will be no repetition.
The coal barons who stole the natural
resources from the people should be
taught their place and if they are not
willing to learn that they do not own the
mines for the purpose of exploiting the
people, the natural resources should be
confscated and given back to the people
to whom they rightfully belong.
