New Ulm review. (New Ulm, Brown County, Minn.) 1892-1961, 1916-07-26

We hear a great deal about the cares
of the rich and no doubt they have wor-
ries which would swamp any ordinary
man but in this very hot weather it is
easy to feel that one could struggle
along under some of their burden pro-
vided one were situated as they are to
secure bodily relief from the discomforts
that the poor have no chance of es-
Gaping. A New York Sunday paper in
commenting on the wide differences in
living conditions to be found in that
city describes the city block in which
Mr.. J. Pierpont Morgan lives. Its
population is only 80 persons. Con-
trasted with it is the block between One
Hundred Twelfth and One Hundred
Thirteenth Streets and between First and
Second Avenues. This block houses
4729 persons. Think of that, half the
population of New Ulm and a thousand
more crowded into living quarters with
in one single block! If every New York
block were built to accommodate that
many people the whole population of
the United States could live in the pre-
sent New York and there would still
be room for more than five million
others. There are numerous other
blocks in the city Of New York that
house two and three thousand people.
Some inequality between the surround
ings of Morgan and those OF the con-
gested district.

A horrible accident at Fairmont resulted

A horrible accident at Fairmont resulted
in the death of three men and fourth
was badly hurt altho he will recover.
The accident occurred when the car
was going very slowly and was wholly
the fault of bad railroad crossing. The
Milwaukee passenger train was coming
also at slow speed but it was quite
impossible to see the train or hear it
until it was right upon the auto and
the men in the car had no time to jump
before they were struck. The dead men
are all prominent farmers and business
men of Fairmont. There are two such
bad crossings near New Uln. Some day
a similar accident will occur to ou1
own people.

IT'S UP TO YOU.

in another column OF this issue will
be found an article on the paper situa.
ton in this country. Heretofore We
have kept our worries over the shortage
to ourselves, hoping that relief might
be obtained by the cessation Of the wal
which has called for SO much waste
OF good printing material. But there
seems no relief possible from this source
and the problem must be figured out
from the other end. The mills claim
that the situation is beyond their power
to remedy, that, they are working three
shifts of men where formerly they en-
ployed but two crews and that they
haven't the machinery and other equip
ment to take on more help.
If all this be true, there can be relief
in but one way; less paper must be used
and more must be saved out of the waste.
Housekeepers are urged to save all
waste paper in place of burning it. Mag
azines are particularly valuable and
should not be destroyed. Thejunk dealer
here in town will buy all paper that
any one wishes to get rid of
provided it is in good condition. The
Review office will buy all magazines and
newspapers and clean wrapping waste
that the owners will deliver here in bund-
les firmly tied so that they can be handled
without further work. Market prices
less freight will be paid. Let the chill
dren learn a lesson Of conservation
by saving all clean papers and selling
them. The amount each assortment
will bring is perhaps too small for grown
people to be concerned about but the
children can be taught valuable les
sons at this time and at the same time
the grown-ups will be assisting to
relieve very acute business situation
which threatens the entire country.
At the present time we have on hand
nearly a carload of waste paper which
we will ship shortly. A carload can
go for the same amount of freight as
half carload and it is therefore good
business to get the car full before ship
ing. Let the children bundle up the
magazines separately from the news,
papers and bring them in to our office
the last part of the week, Friday OF
Saturday, and we will get the ship
ment off just as quickly as possible
in order to take advantage of the pre-
sent good prices Don't put this of
for after we have shipped the carload
we shall not be ready to ship again fol
six months and by that time the prices
may have dropped back. The cam
paign of saving is beginning in earnest
Everywhere there will be more of tn
spirit of conservation that has mad
Germany able to stand the terrific
strain of the past two years on hel
economic resources. No nation Cal
be economically great until it learns
the lessons of conservation and elimina.
ton of waste.

1t will be of interest to his many
friends here to know that Gus Vogel
is getting along in the boxing world
famously. He was on Friday nights

F. J. Backer, local harness man has

members Of the Southern Minnesota
Retail Harness Dealers Association
notifying them of the coming conven-
ton OF their association to be held in
New Ulm August 9Th. This is the first
meeting of the Association and New
Ulm should greet the dealers with a
hospitality that will make them anxious
to return whenever they have oppor-
tunity. The meetings will be held at
the Commercial Club Rooms. The
program is not complete but will include
interesting talks on the business in which
the men are engaged.
Emil G.. Hayes cars were all made to
run into something. At least that
seems to be habit they have whether
he or someone else is at the wheel. This
time it was the new Stutz that took
poke at something which was in it's way.
The something happened to be a road
grader which had been left by the side
of the road between Comfrey and Golden.
Mr.. Hage and Fred Kappelmann were
returning home from Comfrey in some
thing of hurry as storm was coming
up and in turning corner the Stutz
bumped the road grader. The result
was badly tangled lot of grader,
automobile and men with the odds in
favor of the men who came out on top.

ton and the similarity of the opera

details convinces Sheriff Kiene that
the right men have been located.
Half a dozen stores in Topeka were
victimiZed by the two men less than
two months ago Each store cashed a
check for S24, each check signed with
the signature of H. s. Douglas, con-
tractor" One check was cashed by
the Brunt-Martin Drug Company, one
by Alex T GibIer, one by the F'Iad
drug store, the VIM Connors Fur
nitUre company cashed one. and
Ralph Peterson. jeweler, eashed one.
The plan followed was for one of
the pair to call up a store, saying he
was employed by Mr.. Douglas and ask
to have certain things sent to a given
address. few minutes later another
man would call the same store. say he
was Mr. Douglas and give his o. K. to
the previous order. OF course the
store might call back to verify but the
artists foresaw that and cut the tele-
phone line The order for the few
articles would arrive, accompanied by
a check for S24. and cash was turned
over for the difference.
The only name secured by the
sheriff while the operations were go
ing on here was that of F. G. Towne. -
All checks were made payable to
Towne- The names given by the two
men captured at Springfield were

CALLS BRYAN LIAR
Lincoln Politician Passes Ugly
Word to COmmOner.
Former Secretary Accused of
Using Money of "Wets.'

Lincoln, Neb. March 21.-The lie
was passed to William J. Bryan Mon
day afternoon by Colonel John G.
Maher. a local politician. The in
suit was received by the former secre-

prohibition campaign in the state.
Mr.. Bryan heard the inquiry and
coming forward said to Judge Wake
ley:
Money His God.
''Maher is the only man who would
ask that question. He thinks of Moth
ing but money and money will get him
to DO anything
Mr. Bryan, that statement is a lie
Maher retorred. ANY one who says
I ever took money IN a political way
utters a lie and you know it is a lie"
Bryan merely replied that that was
Mr. Makers opinion" and with
Judge Wakeley walked away.
few minutes later Bryan re-
turned alone and said to Maher:
You are the only man I know who
would insult guest Of this city
An exchange of words followed and
finally Colonel Maher flashed forth:
Mr.. Bryan, I have never taken any
money in a political way but what
have you done2 You We're a. candi-
date six times and every time you re-
ceived the support of the brewers
You are tied up right now with Jim
Dahlman (mayor of Omaha). who is
friendly to the brewers. and with
others who helped collect money for
your campaign from brewers"
7 have your enmity and it is a ben
eft 70 me" Bryan retorted, as he
turned away.
