We still believe, says the Minneapolis
Journal, that Minnesota is an American
state" It will prove itself when it sends
Americans to congress. New York Times
Minnesota's delegation in Congress is
Just as American as any Tammany dele
cation ever dared to be and their action
is just as American as the stand taken
by the senior senator. The President
is not saint, and his stand can not be
regarded as any more American than
that taken by the rest of the people. This
nauseating appeal of standing by the
President" is silly and as un-American
as anything we can imagine. This
nation is not composed of lot of min
compoops and to. attack a member of
Congress as not being an American
should be rebuked by every fair-minded
editor in the country or at least in Mime
sofa. The Review is not in political
accord with certain members of the
Minnesota delegation in Congress, but
that does not hinder us from defending
them when their American citizenship is
attacked.

CONCERT At COLLEGE TREAT
FOR LOVERS OF MUSIC.

Unquestionably the best musical pro-
gram ever rendered in New Ulma was
that last Sunday evening at the Music
Hall of D. M. l.. College, given for the
benefit of the Red Cross. The atten-
dance was not, what it should have been
and no doubt would have been larger
had the people realized the musical treat
that was in store for them.
The dirge at the opening of the pro-
gram enthralled the audience to such an
extent that the effects were felt through
out the evenings reflection of
the events now passing on the European
battlefelds. Again the song, "True
even unto death" brought a picture of
the sacrifices that are being made in the
homes of the people for the Father
land; then the "Serenade'' Duet for
piano and organ, one of Gounod's best
compositions, masterfully rendered, and
finally "The Stars and Stripes" and the
finale by the organ peace at Last"
Prof. Ackermann made few remarks
appropriate to the occasion, stating that
the college management had waited in
vain for the citizens of New Ulm to take
the initiative in arranging for a concert
OF this character and for a similar pur-
pose. He stated that approximately
$50 would be realized for a noble cause,
for Red Cross work. The amount will
be forwarded to the German and Aust
rian consuls at St. Paul.

Another good reason for large navy,
built by the sweat and blood of this
nation, now appears to become more ap-
parent as time goes on. How can the
money kings of America collect the war
loans made to Europe if we have no navy
and those who were helped with those
loans should fail to pay? 1t has leaked
out that Russia already has failed to pay
interest on her loans from some coun-
tries Blooming Prairie Times.

him attend te the collection of interest

these days we may have use for boy of

Justlcaa, Thy Virtues
Are M0nNtold

Friends Of former State Treasurer
Smith and his accomplish, Robert c.
Pickit, clerk on the state investment
board, are making heroic efforts to save
the two from the state penitentiary, by
having the state board of pardons act in
their behalf before they enter the prison
doors. In this they are supported by
the press of the Twin Cities and not one
of the sheets has had the nerve to pre-
test against a procedure Of that character
or even criticise the course pursued.
They all seem to think that because the
state has not lost anything, but has
been reimbursed the entire shortage the
couple ought to go scot free. Action
OF that sort if sanctioned by the state
board of pardons is what breeds dis
satisfaction among the general public
with the present state of affairs govern
mental. The fact that Smith paid back
to the state the amount he stole does not
make him less thief and he should take
his punishment as willingly and as grace
fully as did the young fellow who broke
into saloon in Sleepy Eye few weeks
ago, was sent to the county jail and is
now serving a sixty-day sentence for
for exactly the same crime that Smith
was accused and convicted of. The
only difference is that in the case of the
latter poor fellow he did not have the in
fluential friends to come to his assistance.
Both cases are the result of insobriety,
but the case of Smith is the more damn
ing because of his revelry and debauche1y
while holding public office and guardis n
of the funds of the state. He has had his
dance, let him pay the piper.

Good Intentions
Masupplaed

While the Mayor and the City Council
should be commended for their efforts
to protect the morals Of the city, it is to
be questioned whether their action with
regard to the Twilight Sleep" films
was not most unwise. Apparently they
were not fully informed as to the true
nature of the pictures and their action
has made New Ulm look very silly in
the eyes of those who know what the
purpose of these particular pictures is.
A federation of women's clubs is not
likely to be sending films about the
country that will endanger the morals
of the people. Women's clu BIS are al
most VIGOROUSLY" conservative and
anything that they O. K. is pretty likely
to be quite harmless.
People have been censuring the movies,
claiming that they corrupt the minds OF
the young. Here was one opportunity
to view a film on a scientific subject, a
subject that is admitted to be Of vital
moment to the nation that faces race
suicide if statisticians are to be believed,
and those in authority forbade it's presen-
tation to audiences composed of mature
persons, without taking the pains even
to give the managers of the pictures a
hearing. Such a course can have but
one effect, that of belittling the mental
capacity of New Ulm citizens.
In our opinion, it was mistake to
advertise the pictures to be shown ''For
Men Only" at one exhibition. That
phrase carries with it suggestion of
something forbidden and arouses a NOR
bid curiosity that certain persons of I'M
clean minds would attempt to crafty.
However, we honestly believe that less
harm would have resulted from giving
them an opportunity to see the pictures
and learn for themselves the scientific
facts concerned with the subject than
followed from the snickering discus
sions which took place concerning the
order issued by the Mayor. Anything
that they could have seen in the pictures
could not possibly corrupt minds already
foul and the facts might have cleared
some of the foulness away. It is hiding
and making a secret of the processes of
nature that gives them their fascination
for the perverted mind. No harm ever
came from the truth being known, and
all mature persons should know the truth
with regard to matters of such moment
as the reproduction OF life and it's pre-
servation. This is not ignoring the
possibility that the twilight Z Sleep"
treatment may be a disappointment and
not for the best interests Of the human
race, but every women has a right to
know about anything that will make
maternity less of a nightmare, and she
should be allowed to decide for herself
whether she wishes to take the risks con-
nected with the relief offered.

MANUFACTURE OF SAND-LIME
BRICK ON THE INCREASE

The report on sand-lime brick soon to
be issued by the Geological Survey will
show that sales of this product in 1915
were lis, 643, 900 brick valued at 81, 1885,
104, which was an increase of 7,014 900
brick or per cent in quantity and of
$76,592 or per cent in value over 1914.
Michigan was the leading State, report
ing sand-lime brick marked to the value
of $286,948 or over one-fourth of the
quantity and value of the sand-lime
brick sold in the United States. Mime
sofa was second and New York third.
The sand-lime brick industry, after ex-
periencing the ups and downs of new
industry, the report states, has become
firmly established and has found Its
place in the sum-" Many operators are
reported as enlarging the capacity of
their plants in anticipation of increased
business during 1915.
