pendent and the highest type of lawyer
would refuse to accept q position
where he must OF necessity compromise
himself or suffer recall. The recall
was further shown to be dangerous in
practical operation.
In the direct argument the debate
was New Ulm's by a wide margin.
The arguments we're delivered with
fire and vim which made them con-
vincing and the negative outline
weathered the storm almost intact.
In the rebuttals, Redwood had
slight advantage. They firmly main
tanned that the people could be trusted
not to abuse the power of recall and
that the recall was no more serious in
nature than q general election. The
negative showed that the advocates of
the recall had failed to prove the plan
would work when applied to federal
judges or that it was safe or fair.
And finally the negative compared the
two plans offered and showed how
their opponents had failed to show
that the recall was the better.
The excitement was intense as the
debate closed and when the decision
was finally announced and the import
OF it sank home to the Redwood
rooters. pandemonium broke loose.
The losing team showed themselves to
be true sports by being the first to
congratulate their opponents.
The debate was extremely close,
much closer in fact than the unanimous
decision would seem to indicate
Prof. Mcconnell, in commenting on
the debate afterward, said: 81 have
never judged debate where I had so
hard time to decide. I would not
have been surprised if the Negative
had won in spite of my vote.''
Mr.. Lewis, who has had the training
of the team, said: II am we'll pleased
with the showing the. team made. It
was our first debate and we were of
course handicapped by lack of ex-
perience. But the whole team ACC uitted
themselves with honor and we are not
offering any excuses for losing such
good debate by such narrow margin.
The team has worked faithfully and is
a credit to any High School,

team will be lost by graduation. Her
place will be hard to fill as she has
developed into very forceful speaker
with the ability to think clearly in the
pinches. Elizabeth Dougher has
another year in which to even up the
score and can be depended upon to
make the most of it. She is a cool.
steady debater who ought to pilot the
team to victory with the aid of another
seasons experience. John Woebke
has the advantage of getting into the
game as Freshman. With three
more years ahead of him and his
ability to work he should develop
into whirlwind debater before he
graduates. So with two of the
regulars back and wealth of new
material to draw from next year, the
prospects for debating in New Ulm
High School seem particularly bright

The dancing party given by the New
Ulm Turnverein at the Gymnasium
was very we'll attended by a Jolly
crowd who seemed to be enjoying
themselves every minute of the time.
A supper consisting OF Sauerkraut
Landjaeger and Rye Bread was served
about midnight and the hungry
dancers made way with it In short
order. A nice sum was realized BY
the committee in charge.

Model Drug Store Changes Hands.

Another business change took place
IN our midst Saturday. Fer since
his recent election to the Presidency
of the Citizens State Bank which will
require his undivided attention, Mr..

has followed for almost half a cen.
fury. He therefore took up negotia-
tions with Alfred Hellmann and on
Saturday the deal was closed whereby
the Model Drug Store changed owner

Mr. Olsen was apprenticed as drug
clerk AZ years ago. Ia TIE year 1875
he came to New Ulm and was EMPLOYED
for three years in the City Drug Store

the Pioneer Drug Store under the late
DR.. Charles Weschcke. He then EN-.

Il years he owned and operated q
drug store in the Bosch Block where
the New Ulm Review plant is now
located. Since then his drug store has

PETROGRAD ROSE FROM MUD HUT COLONY

IN the centre of the Admiralty Square within
the shadow of the Kazan Cathedral, stands
the equestrian statue of Peter the Great
founder Of ST. Petersburg, "the City OF
Cars" Perched upon huge granite rock
weighing $4,000 tons stands the gorgeous monu-
ment of Peter, surveying the dream he con-
ceived and whose name Gar Nicholas has
changed from "Sankt Petersburg" as the Rus
slams call it, to Petrogrsd, in his effort to purge
the city from it's TeutOnic appellation
Only a century and half ago that little
peninsula, where now stands one of the wonder
cities of the world, was nothing more than
dreary, marshy waste, surrounded by thlcketS
and forests and inhabited by few lonely Finnish
fishermen On one of the islands encircled by
the pellucid Neva. commanding the entrance oil
Lake Ladoga, the Swedes maintained strong
fortress, the possession of which was unavail-
ingly contested by the Russians. Peter the
Great, realizing the advantages of the Swedish
position, waged a relentless for the posses
sion of these little islands. In 1902, after the
capture of Neysschants, the Swedes were driven
from the fortress, and even before peace was
established Peter gave orders for the erection Of
the city which he named after mis- patron saint
St. Peter
The building and maintenance of st. Peters
burg marks a continuous struggle and conquest
Of nature The soil is marsh so deep and
spongy that d solid foundation in many places
can only be attained by subterranean scaffod
ing of piles. The highest spot of the city is not
more than fifteen feet above the sea level. The
weather is severe, and is marked by bitter frosts
in winter and scourgng heat in summer. For
six months each year, from October till May the
Neva is frozen soldly, and is as impe 4etrable as
the Chinese wall All traffic stops then till
nature releases the port from its frozen grip
An old legend has it that after Peter the
Great chose the site of Petrograd he noticed a
heavy ring above the trunk of tree. He turned
to one of the Finnish fishermen who stood near,
asking him to explain the meaning Of it.
That" remarked the fisherman naively. us the
spot to which the foods of the Neva reached last
spring"
You're mad!' shouted Peter. You're mad.
II can't be- 1t is mpossibe"
1t was not long, though, before he was con.
WINGED of the truth of the hshermsn's statement.
One year after the work upon the city had begun
the western winds drove the water from the Guir
OF Finland down to the Nevs, making a funnel OF
it, flooding the nucleus of his dream. Although
century and half has passed, nature has no.
changed her course.
In lIl2 the floods were so severe that Peter the
Great nearly lost his life Thousands of peopl.
died in the course Of it and the whole city was

Treasury Department TO insure American vessels

the Panama Canal and The establishment of Amer

United States a tremendous avenue Of trade with
the "othcr Americans" and further strengthen its
economic standing, if not cause an old.tash'oned

All Of which leads us 10 a more general con
sderatior Of the economic outlook for Uncle
Sam. He is undoubtedly recovering slowly but
surely from the sudden dislocaJior Of pretty much
all his industrial machinery Thanks primarily to
Great Britain and her navy, he has already as
sumed his role Of feeder Of lighting Europe
Thanks TO the emergency measures OF his own gov
ernment he bids fair to fill the gap left in the
commerce Of South America by the withdrawal OF
Germany from the high seas, He is tidng over
the crisis in cotton by permitting banks to issue
notes against warehouse receipts OF this staple.
It looks very much not only as if he would rise
70 the occasion but cover himself with glory anc
doubloons He is waiting expeetantly, 1or instance
for an unprecedented demand from both unhappy
Europe and happy South America for his COTTON
goods and for his SHOES, and leather goodS IN
addition TO the commodities already mentioned
Just now he is a little afraid that he may not DC
able to get from Germany the dyes needed IN MS
cotton manufactures. 1t seems likely however,
that little later movement OF t,Je dyes can DC
facilitated down the Rhine to Rotterdam, neu
tral port. and thence to this side In neutral DOT
toms they would not be subject 10 seizure since

tic sources Most OF the rest they import from
Germany and Austria, market that seems sure 70
remain closed 10 them indei,nteiy. But it hos
been pointed out that when their present supply
runs out they will probably be in position to lf-
port what they want from South America. For
Uncle Sam is By no means alone in the necessity
he is under TO rcadjust himself, commercially, III
dustraliy and financially. Ali those tremendously
llch and growing countries to the south Of the
lsthmus are undergoing like pains and are finding
a decided community Of interest with one another
and Uncle Sam in their common predicament
They will help him and he them TO a degree that
at this time it seems impossible 70 eXaggcrate
There are certain pitfalls in the path of pros
perty. One has to do with the dangers of volat-
ing neutrality. Another concerns the undue in
faton of currency. In the purchase of the idle
German ships tied up in various American
harbors, notably New York, the government
would incur the dispeasure of the allies In
trading with England in conditional contraband
carried in government-owned ships is
threatened, Uncle Sam would invite the bitter
protests of the Kaiser.
As for the danger of a greatly inflated cur
rency, this. it seems may be avoided if the pro-
vision to permit an issue of notes against cotton
warehouse receipts is not regarded precedent
to be applied in helping other commodities
the rough places. Already great pressure has
been brought to bear by Silver and copper
to treat them with the same indulgence. To
do SO would be to invite premium on gold and
. monetary panic similar to that of 1893.
Either to be drawn into the European conflict
or 20 induce panic would be to throw to the
winds what appears to be the fairest opportunity
possessed by any nation in all history to become
the economic arbiter Of this planet.

But now with the war month Old the spirit
of partisan ship has cooled down bit. The Pres
ident's plea for neutrality has helped many hnd
their argumentatvc course. The remarkable
openness with which they stated their innermost
convictions has brought them close to ore another
and engen4ered spirit of real democracy that
has levelled the social distinctions among the men
who faithfully gather to read the bulletins and
what was at the outset mere debating society
has grown and expanded into something finer
nobler than that.
It has now assumed the Importance of an IN
tcllectual and spiritual exchange. PersonalitcE
have been evolved who. by their power of sus-
tanned logic ready repartee and personal mag
netism, have proved their right to leadership in
