sofa Lake Tribune which has used a
heavy book paper to bring out more
clearly the material relating to the adj
vantages of Minnesota. There are many
others from all over the state, showing
how willing the newspaper men are to
spend their hard-earned cash to pay for
cuts to illustrate the beauties OF the
state, and to give their days and nights,
as we'll, to the production OF something
that is to pull for the good, not only of
the newspaper men themselves, but of
everyone in the state. The plates used
to illustrate the magazine supplement
of the Review cost something over
$115.00. Nearly every newspaper that
got out a special edition spent something
like the same sum. Some of them got
it back in advertising and some of them
did not. That is not the question with
them, however. What they are most
concerned with, is whether the papers
were sent out as they should have been.
If they were, there certainly will be re-
suits seen in the increase of immigration
to the state during the coming year.

Whose Business Is IT.?

We heard an ordinarily sensible man
discussing the coming marriage of Presi-
dent Wilson the other day. From his
remarks, we thot that our Chief Exc
cutive had been caught in piracy on the
high seas or stealing candy from some
kiddie.
After all whose business is it? We
opine that if Mr.. Wilson is making a
mistake he is the one who has to live
with said mistake. Judged by such a
wwork-a-day standard it is the President
business and no one else's.
We are quite ready to concede that
Mr.. Wilson has departed a bit from his
now famous Mexican policy of watch
full waiting" But what of that? The
same crowd that has been kicking about
his dilatory methods of watchful waiting
is now hollering because he has proved
himself a man of action.

: That the training of our small boys is
lacking in some respects is evidenced by
the acts of the hordes OF youngsters
who 60 about during these days OF the
fall migration Of birds, armed with slung-
shots and air rifles, making miserable
the lives of the birds. The College
Heights are fairly alive with the little
birds these days and they are also in
tested with the small urchin bent on
making targets OF the winged creatures.
One OF the college professors picked up
dozens of the birds that had been killed
in the school grounds, recently. We
can't see any way to stop the slaughter
unless the parents will declare the wea-
pons of the small son contraband and
confscate all death dealing instruments
found in his pockets.

Several people asked us Saturday,
"Wonder why the Journal came out
with a special just when the Review did,"
This shows us that the purpose OF
the special editions was not fully under
stood by many. Every newspaper in
the state was asked by the editorial
committee to get out a special edition
during the week of October 1915.
The two New Ulm papers complied
with this request, the Review coming
on Wednesday as usual and the Journal
on Saturday. The idea was simply
to have each subscriber of the various
papers of the state send at least one
copy of the special edition out of the
state to advertise the state, county and
city. Each paper that got out this
special printed several hundred copies
extra so that those who are willing to
send more than one copy to help the
good work would be supplied. The Re
view is of the opinion that great many
of the readers did not understand that
they ought to do their part and wishes
to remind them that it is still not too
late to get some of the extra copies
probably of every paper in the county.
There are on hand at the Review office
about 100 copies waiting to be ordered
out

Of no practical value to anyone except

of no practical value to anyone except
perhaps the public printers, who are
ever near, eagerly bidding for emolu-
ments, and anxious to draw revenue
from the state, which in it's last analysis
means the people and tax payers.
The present report in concise and
practical little booklet OF 23O pages, in
which are clearly and intelligently set
forth all the necessary tables, information
and data concerning life, casualty, and
fire insurance, that every voter in the
state is interested in. The very sim
plicity OF it, the easiness with which it
can be consulted and referred to, will
make it welcome handbook to the
rank and file Of our people.
This innovation is saving the tax
payers over $4,000 in printing alone,
say nothing about the saving in postage
on four pounds Of avoirdupois, as COM
pared with that on the pamphlet of less
than sixteen ounces. Thus it will be
seen that while several thousand dollars
are saved to the tax payers, they are
nevertheless much better served.
This practical demonstration of con-
servatisrn, exercised in the Department
of Insurance, reflects great credit not
only on the commissioner himself, but
also on the governor who appointed him.

Major Duane of St. Peter visited Fri
day with Colonel Buschers. Mr.. Duane
who is one OF the editors of the St. Peter
Herald stopped at the Review office for
a fraternal chat. He and Mrs. Duane
have recently returned from a seven
weeks trip to the Pacific expositions
which they greatly enjoyed. Mr..
Qunae was formerly connected with the
Review and says he would like to live
in New Ulm again first rate but that
St. Peter treats the Herald so well he
couldn't think of leaving there. The
Herald is one OF the really good papers
of this part of the state, and deserves
all it gets.

SAVING TAXPAYERS MONEY.


The sincerity, honesty Of purpose, and
Office efficiency of State Insurance Com
missioner S. D. Works, in so far as it
directly affects the tax payer, has again
been demonstrated and exemplifed in
most conspicuous manner in the pre-
paration and publishing of the annual
insurance report. Heretofore it has
been customary for the department to
publish a report in two ponderous
volumes, containing some eleven or
twelve hundred pages, weighing about
four pounds, containing a lot of dry and
dead matter which not one out of $4,000
voters can possibly have the slightest
interest in, and which therefore seems

Brown County has the livest bunch
of newspaper men in the state, if one
may Judge by the special editions which
they got out to boost the state. No
other county can show five splendid
editions such as were issued in Brown
County. The Springfield Free Press
had an edition Of "a pages which is
going some for the youngest child in
the newspaper family. W. F. MAILER,
is showing a fine 80 page edition, the
largest special issued in the county.
Brother Hodges Of Sleepy Eye has
thirty pages crowded with information
concerning the state, county and city.
The Brown County Journal issued a
sixteen page paper printed in colored
ink to celebrate the occasion of their
first special in five years. The Review
issued the only illustrated magazine
gotten out in the state. It might be
interesting if the newspaper boys would
get together and find out just how many
>of these specials were sent out by sub
scribers and business men of the various
communities to help boost the state.
The Review sold all of it's extras but re-
ceiyed a countermand of 100 copies
Saturday because the magazine did
not contain certain matter that had been
expected. We therefore have on hand
a part of this number and any one
who did not get a special to send away
to friends should secure one now.

ANOTHER MUSICAL COMEDY
TREAT.

Arthur Hammerstein's notable success
'High Jinks'', with music by Rudolf
Friml and lyrics by Otto Hauerbach,
will be seen at the Turner Theatre Sun
day evening, October 31st.
This musical jolity, famous for it's run
of an entire year at the Casino, New
York, set the whole country agog with
interest, and started everybody humming
and whistling it's delightfully."- seductive
airs.
The melodies of "High links" are a
real contribution to the pleasure Of the
nation, for Rudolf Frirnps score has been
sung from East and West and back
again since it's first appearance a year
ago. Its music has swing that arouses
to enthusiasm the average person, and
the action is of the most lively order.
Not only is the music of the lifting kind,
but there is an abundance of it. Unlike
some shows, that have one or two gems
of melody, High links" has nothing but
songs that live in the memory. In the
first act, the melody with the name of the
show sets high pace, which is main
tanned. Plentifully sprinkled through
out are terse terpsichorean numbers.
For abandon, gracefulness and pre-
cision of movement, executed by large
numbers, it is an entertainment that can
hardly be exceeded on the ordinary stage.
OF the play in general, it's conception and
execution are actuated by the spirit of
merriment and with a lightness that is
both refined and artistic. a- !"
/ The large and gaily dressed chorus
adds materially in making High Jinks''
paradise of attractiveness.

SILVER WEDDING CELEBRATED.

Last Thursday evening at the Wood
men Hall Mr.. and Mrs. Charles A. Stolz
of this city celebrated the twenty-fifth
anniversary of their marriage in COM
pany with nearly a hundred invited
guests. The affair was one of the most
enjoyable of the sort ever held in the
city, both Mr.. and Mrs. Stolz being very
popular with their friends and having
the happy faculty Of providing enjoyable
hospitality. The entertainment of the
evening consisted of dancing and music
following a big wedding dinner which
was served at seven o'clock. The hall
was prettily decorated with autumn
leaves and shaded lights which lent an
air Of festivity to the scene.
When Mr.. and Mrs. Stolz were
married twenty-five years ago, another
couple also took their marriage vows.
Mrs. Stolz was Miss Ida Heymann and
her sister, Miss Emma Heymann was
married at the same time to Albert
Strelow. Rev. L. B. Nobis, at that
time pastor of the local Congregational
/ Church performed the double ceremony
which took place at the Heymann home
in CORTLAND Township. Mr.. and Mrs.

marriage on the old homestead in Court

"But There Is No Peace. "

We hear great deal these days about
the dire need of more adequate National
defense. Every periodical one picks up
is filled with the blatant cry of the
jingoist for more armament and bigger
available supply Of cannon fodder.
From Secretary Daniels to the lowliest
hack writer, all are convinced that the
United States is in danger of immediate
attack and is absolutely helpless to pre-
vent such attack. Treaties are but
scraps of paper they say. The word
of man or nation may not be trusted"
Arm to the teeth, B'Gosh and we can
lick the world
So the Jingoist reads the lesson to be
cleaned from the great struggle raging in
Europe. But he overlooks the equally
obvious lesson to be learned in favor of
peaceful rather than war-like prepare
tons. The best trained army in the
world didn't keep Germany out of the
scrap.
England, the boosted Mistress of the
Seas is just as busily piling up war
debts for the third and fourth generations
to pay off. Surely, preparedness is not
the method to avoid war. A man is
more apt to use a gun when some one
kicks his favorite yellow pup if he has
said gun handy in his hip pocket. And
nations are singularly like the individuals
, who compose them.
| 1t is argued that our isolation is no
longer a defence from innovation be-
cause mans inventive genius has amin
hilated space. But no important foreign
nation is going to feel like trying out
our defenses right away. They all
have troubles of their own just now and
will hesitate to start another fracas
without counting the cost.
We are not opposed to an adequate
national defense, but we would deplore
any radical addition to our present
military and naval budget. Our total
military bill was $497 100000 when the
war began-the greatest sum ever ex.
pended by any nation for military pur.
poses. And still the fre-eaters want
more.
Why not put the military expendi.
lures on more economical basis and gel
more for our money instead of plungine
deeper. 1t costs us $1,000 per year tt
keep a soldier, while the European
nations can provide fighter for from
third to one-fourth of that amount
Don't we need efficient management a
much as adequate armament? On
might produce the other and not increas
our national burden bit.
