CELEBRATION OF LABOR DAY

Labor Day badges were very much in
evidence on the streets of New Ulm
Monday and more so at Hermanns
Heights where the New Ulm Arbeiter
Verein held it's annual picnic.
With the exception of only few
states, not to exceed seven in all, the
first Monday in September has been
made legal holiday. The first state
to declare this day legal holiday was
the State of Colorado in 1887. Since
then nearly every state in the Union
has followed suit. In the larger cities
Labor Day" has become one of the
big days and monster parades are held,
speeches are made tending to rouse the
working men from their apathy to a
realization of their Importance and power.
This year Labor Day" was to have had
a special significance. 1t was on this
ay at 7 a. m. that approximately
100000 members of the Brotherhood of
Railroad Trainmen were to walk out and
inaugurate the biggest strike this country
had ever seen. Fortunately Congress

Publish Names
OF Delinquents
CREDITORS TIRED
OF WAITING FOR DEBTORS
TO PAY.

Fairmont business men have taken a
new method of getting their money from
people who refuse to pay their bills.
This weeks issue of the Martin County
Independent contains a three column
advertisement signed by the Fairmont
Business Mems Association in which
appear the names of all delinquent
customers of the business men represented
by the Association. These delinquent
accounts are advertised for sale and bids
are asked. The amounts of the bills
run from IS cents to $102.63. The
biggest bills thruout the list seem to be
for meat and one may draw his own
conclusions as to the reasons for that.
CHANGING thru the list, one finds but
very few bills listed by the professional
men altho they appear often enough to
indicate that the doctors, dentists, etc.,
be that the reason the professional people
are generally pretty well-to-do is because
they have the knack of asking a good
price for their services and then getting IT..
No doubt it is also due to the fact that
when a man calls in doctor he knows
what it is going to cost him and that he
must pay it and he can not get the service
cheaper anywhere else. That is what
plays hob with other lines of business.
1t used to be said Competition is the
life of trade. 1t is now known that it
is much more apt to be the death of the
business that INDUCES in it, and pro-
fessional men realized that fact long ago
and set their schedules. AS a result
their prices are known and respected and
their bills are paid.
The items most frequently mentioned
in the list of delinquent accounts are
merchandise and clothing and one party
was tempted to indulge in hose to the
extent of $7.13 but whether this was the
silk kind or the plain garden variety does
not appear. Whether publicity will
bring about the desired result and "raise
the wind" or not, we do believe it
will raise some storm and it may also
have a deterrent effect on others who
may be inclined to buy things necessary
and otherwise and let the dealer whistle
for his pay.

passed an hour law for certain classes
OF railway workmen and the strike was
averted.
Very few of the smaller cities observe
Labor Day. as holiday. New Ulm
makes notable exception, all because it
has the "Arbeiterverein'' which ar
ranges a picnic for this day. The
merchants are prevailed upon to close
their places of business for the afternoon
and this was done again this year and
all of the stores were closed when the
'New Ulm Arbeiterverein" shortly after
one o'clock preceded by the, New Ulm
Concert Band marched thru Minnesota
Street and up to Hermann's Heights.
The attendance at the picnic was very
good, larger than it had been for some
years and from a financial and social
viewpoint the affair was success. There
was prize bowling, prize shooting, dance
in the dancing pavilion and singing; the
German folksong was very much in
evidence. 1t is to be regretted that there
was no speech-making. Speeches show
ing the significance of the labor move
ment are always in order on Labor Day
and should not be omitted. The New
Ulm Arbeiterverein was organized almost
a quarter Of century ago and has now
about 260 members.

enacted for the purpose of preserving
the shooting for other years to come.
Licenses are required of all residents
OF the state who desire to shoot game
birds, except of minors and persons

NEW BUILDINGS ON
MINNESOTA STREET
WEISER BLOCK TO BE READY
FOR OCCUPANCY BY MIDDLE
OF OCTOBER.
DAKOTA HOUSE DOLLING UP
BECkER'S RESTAURANT ON
sOUTH5,sIDE.

when the Weiser building on North
Minnesota street is completed it will
mark the opening of New Ulm's most
modern building. The structure itself
is rs by 100 feet and when furnished is
estimated to cost the proprietor ap-
proximately $4,000. 1t is two stories
high and the floor space reaches total
of over five thousand square feet.
Twin City Brick have been used in
the construction of the building and
with its New Jersey Terra Gotta finish
it is very handsome affair. The con-
tractors, Pullman Bros, have put as
many men as possible at work on the
building and according to the present
outlook the building will be ready for
occupancy from the first to the fifteenth
of October.
F. W. Peuser will occupy the front
part of the basement of the Weiser
building and will have one of the best
barber shops in the Northwest. Hot
and cold shower baths will be installed
Eand the furniture will be of the most
Modern.
The entire first floor will be occupied
by Andrews & Ellis who will conduct
a modern candy kitchen. Ice cream,
sodas and confectionery will be sold.
The proprietors, who own several stores
in Minneapolis plan to install furniture
of the latest models. Booths will also
be installed so that patrons can have
privacy and all the modern conveniences
that belong to first class Greek candy
kitchen will be installed. The back part
of the basement will be used by the
company for the making of their candy
and ice cream. The floor of the apart
ment will be made of white thing and
the display window will rest on window
stills built OF small green tiles.
The top floor is divided into eleven
rooms, the front three Of which will be
occupied by the Pfaender Fire In
surance Agency and the Building &
Loan Association. Alfred w. Mueller
will also remove his law office from his
present location in the Dietz block to
lNe Weiser building and will have three
rooms. Iron vaults will be installed
for the convenience of these two, one
vault for each. Co. Attorney Adolph
Frederickson who will move to this city
in the near future will also occupy several
rooms on this floor.
Other improvements to be noted on
Minnesota Street are those being made
at the Dakota House which is having
new coat of stucco put on over the old
cement which had begun to drop off.
This will improve the looks of the place
greatly:
Another new building that is pro-
crossing rapidly is the Becker restaurant
and pool hall which is located on South
Minnesota Street. 1t will be constructed
of white granite brick and will cost about
$4,000 when completed. The first floor
will be divided in the middle by par
tition, the right side to be used as a
restaurant and the left as pool hall
A large door will lead into both the
: restaurant and the pool hall.
\ The top floor will be furnished by Mr..
Becker and part of the rooms will be
rented. The front rooms will be &C.
cupied by the Becker family.

Overland Gets
Roadsters Goat
COLLISION SENDS TWO CARS
TO HOSPITAL OCCUPANTS
UNHURT

This weeks automobile accident re-
suited in couple of badly damaged cars
and an almost miraculous escape of the
six persons who were riding, from broken
bones or worse. The smash-up oc-
CURED at the corner of South First Street
and Minnesota just about six o'clock
Saturday evening. The cars concerned
were owned by John Bartl and Joe
Wartha. The Bartl car was driven by
Peter Brey and is a big Overland. The
Wartha car is Stoddard-Dayton road
ster.
Wartha, who is employed at the
Review office, had been on an Grand to
some place east of the railroad tracks
and was returning. AS he came up
First Street South from the c. & N. w.
tracks he noticed the Bartl car going
south on Minnesota Street. AS the big
car reached the Minnesota House corner
the driver turned to 60 down South
First Street, intending to make the turn
properly according to the laws of the
road. AS he turned, however, bicyclist
was standing with his wheel near the
middle of the street and on the right
hand side were the wagons standing
near the Palace Livery In avoiding
them and the bicyclist, Brey either lost
control, jerked the wheel or gave the
car little too much gas, and the big
Overland leaped forward and shot over
the crossing on the east side of Minnesota
street between Dongus' store and the
Palace Livery and brought up full force
against the front part of Wartha's car.
Wartha had seen how nearly the Over
land came to striking the bicyclist and
remarked to his companion, Henry Alex,
what narrow shave it was and the next
moment the collision had happened.
He had released his engine when he saw
the Overland making the turn in order
to keep out of its way when he saw it
coming but the collision was inevitable.
Mr.. Bartl, owner of the Overland car,
said that he felt that he has case
against the city for allowing the Palace
Livery to keep their vehicles standing
out in the roadway and taking up nearly
third of the space. He feels that the
collision would never have occurred had
there been a clear space at the right side.
Seated in the back seat of the Bartl car
were three girls and they were hurled
completely out of the car and struck in
the roadway without anything more
than bad shaking up. The driver re-
tanned his place in the front seat.
When the cars were hauled into the
South Side garage it was found that the
roadster had its front wheel on the left
side smashed from tire to spindle, both
axles broken, the steering gear put out
of commission and another tire ripped
to pieces. The Overland sustained prac-
tically the same injuries and the frame
was badly twisted. The garage men
said that the damages to both cars would
] run upwards Of 100000 or more.

CONGRESS RELIEVES
STRIKE SITUATION
EIGHT HOUR LAW SATISFIES
DEMANDS OF STRIKING
TRAIN MEN
MEANS ENORMOUS INCREASES
IN COST OF OPERATION OF
RAILROADS.

At practically the last moment, way
was found out of the difficulty with the
trainmen who were threatening to strike
and tie up the whole transportation
system of the country. Congress rose
to the occasion and passed an eight hour
law which satisfied the trainmen and the
railways were obliged to accede to the
solution of the problem. They had re-
fused absolutely and fatty to grant the
eight hour day asked by the Brother
hood and the Brotherhood had refused
to allow the matter to be arbitrated and
there the question hung with orders
issued by the Brotherhood that all
members should refuse to take their
trains out after o'clock Monday morn
ing, Sept. 18th.
There is little doubt that the present
solution of the difficulty is not the final
answer. If the railroads carry this
matter to the Supreme Court as they
threaten to do and win out, then the
strike will loom up as big as ever. If
the law is declared constitutional, there
can hardly be any question that the
railroads have secured leverage to use
in the process of hosting freight rates
and as usual the public will pay the
additional wages demanded by the train
men.
1t is hard for people not fully &C
quainted with railroad business to know
who was in the right in the dispute. To
the average workingman the wages paid
the trainmen would seem to be ample
and a great deal of unfavorable comment
was heard concerning the position they
took in the matter. Apparently they
were determined to have the wages they
demanded no matter what the cost to-
any one. Ostensibly they were striking
for an eight hour day but what they
really wanted was pay for ten hours and
work only eight with time and half for
anything over the eight hours.
AS the railroads have their schedules
and division points arranged at present
it would be impossible for them to get
their men back home in the eight hours
and they would therefore be compelled
either to rearrange the entire system or
pay time and half for practically a
fourth of a day and they claimed that
they could not do it. Now it would
seem that they are to be compelled to do
it whether they can or not.
1t may cost 5 per cent increase in the
freight rates Of the country to meet the
additional expense. The railroads have
said that they will find it very difficult to
meet the sudden drain caused by the new
regulations because even if Congress
would allow them to boost freight rates
Immediately it would take them six
months to get their tariffs lined up and
in the meantime some of the weaker
roads would be put on the toboggan and
all would feel the strain badly.
The average yearly wages paid the
trainmen are given as follows:
