COUNTRY EDITOR A COMMUN
TTY Builder

The editorial and news columns
of the local weekly newspapers
throughout the State are TO the COM
munity today what the town, meet
ings used to be in the old days. In
the country weeklies the rural citi-
zens meet mentally and discuss
matters relating to their welfare. The
country eCitor is made the presid-
ing officer Of important local gath
erlnss tie is custodian and protec-
tor Of local interests, the interpreter
of statewide, national and interna-
tional events. He is the school teach
tr for grown ups, the man who uses
his eyes, his ears, his knowledge, his
powers Of observation for the benefit
of tie people of his county, whom
he knows and who know him.
1t is said that it would be impos-
sible to keep this government going
impossible, at least, to keep rep
resentative and democratic govern
ment alive in this country it
not for the thousands of weekly
newspaper editors scattered through
out the land, every one of them
watcher and all observer. vigilant
policeman in politics and public af-
fairs.
Wherever two railroads cross in
the United States and there is a
town or village, there is, Fortunate
ly, a local editor.
The editor watches the railroads.
He watches the affairs of his town
ship, county, state and nation. He
talks weekly to his fellow citizens
concerning the affairs which interest
them the most.
Big metropolitan dailies with cir
culations running into the thousands
have peculiar power of their own,
but with all their readers there is
not the personal touch characteristic
of the weekly newspaper The local
editor speaks to his readers as one
friend speaks to another. His read
ers know him by sight They know
his record. They know either the
hard fight he is making for their in
terests or they know how hide bound
he is to partisan interests. A word
from their local editor means more
TO the country folks than many col
umns read from some anonymous
and unknown editor in the big city,

banking resources and the over sub

GERMANS SARCASTIC AS TO

Berlin, via London Especial y
While the newspapers have played
up the capture of the Americans in
their headlines, the only comment
is made by the Lokal Anxeiger I'M
der the caption Good Morning,
Boys the paper then says:
Three cheers for the Americans.
clever chaps they are, it cannot be
denied. Scarcely have they touched
the soil OF this Europe when they
already are forcing their way into
Germany. Before long they will also
cross the Rhine and enter our fort
resses. That is express train speed
and American smartness.
1t is our good fortune that we
are equipped TO receive and enter
tain numerous guests and that we
shall be able to provide quarters for
these gentlemen. However, we can
not promise them doughnuts and
jam and to this extent they will be
obliged to recede from their former
standard of living. They probably
will become reconclled to this for
soldering is ever a risky business
Above all they will find comfort in
the thought that they are rendering
their almighty president, Mr. Wilson,
valuable services inasmuch as it is
asserted he is anxious to obtain re-
liable information concerning condi-
tons and sentiment in belIigerent
countries.
In this way he will obtain first
hand information about things i'll
Germany.
AS Americans are accustomed
to travel in luxury and comfort we
assume that these advance arrivals
merely represent couriers for larger
numbers to follow. We are sure
the latter also will come and be
gathered in by US. At home they
believe they possess the biggest and
most colossal everything, but such
establishments as we have here thew
have not seen.
Look here, my boy, here is the
big firm of Hindenburg & Company,
with which you want to compete.
Look at its accomplishments and
consider whether it would not be
better haul down your sign and en-
gage in some other line. Perhaps
your boss, Wilson. will reconsider
his newest line of business before
we grab off more of his young peo-

MAKING THE WORLD SAFE FOR
DEMOCRACY"

When President Wilson uttered
these memorable words expressing
Americas loftiest sentiments in the
worlds war struggle, he little reck-
oned how the ignorant and hide
bound would interpret the meaning,
no doubt believing that there would
be none so unlearned or so unpa-
triotic but what the utterance would
be accepted in its true and full
meaning. However there are those
who know better who would have the
ignorant believe that President Will
son had in mind the saving Of the
world for the Democratic party-and
not for great democratic form of
government which would unloOse
the letters of oppression and ignor-
ance and let man stand forth in his
majesty and power, guaranteeing
freedom of action, freedom of speech
and the Safeguarding of his house
hold and loved ones from the ty-
rants rule. It's pity, a great pity
that the eyes of the ignorant cannot
be opened by a miracle in this great
worlds crisis and save them from
themselves.
If this was true revolution-ridden
Russia and Mexico would be today
coming into their own and the Ger
man government of aut0cracy would
cease to exist.
Ignorance is the curse of the world.

NEAT MARKET ICE BOX
is NOT COLD STORAGE
st. Peter Man is Acquitted or
Advice From Game Warden.

The following from the st. Peter Free
Press, may be Of interest to many in
{ this city:
"a meat market cold room, in which
game birds are stored by the butcher
for friends without compensation, is
not cold storage warehouse under
the provisions of the game. law, Judge
G. G. Seifert held Wednesday when
he acquitted James Meyers Of the
charge Of placing ducks in cold storage.
The decision was rendered by the
Justice after consultation by the game
warden and the county attorney with
the office of the state game and fish
commissioner. The point seems to be a
fmooted one, some courts having held
one way and some the other.
t.The law in articles 1903 and 4766
reads as follows: The placing or re-
ceiving within or storage Of any game
or animal or any part thereof in any cold
storage plant is hereby prohibited and
made unlawful
The game and fish commission
and all game wardens shall inspect from
time to time hotels, restaurants, cold
storage houses or plants and ice houses,
commonly used in storing meats, game
Ct fish for private parties, for the purpose
Of determining whether game or fish are
kept therein in violation of this act
The state game and fish commission
er's Office advices that the placing in the
cold room OF. a meat market of game
birds is not an offense when no charge
is made for the keeping of the same.
The commissioner apparently does not
think that meat market ice box is a
cold storage plant within the meaning
of the statute. He suggests, however,
that if the hunter had placed the ducks
in the market for the purpose of selling
them and either he or the butcher had
sold any one of them, then an offense
would have been committed.
so Mr.. Meyer was acquitted of the
charge against him, and Game Warden
Karpen returned the ducks to the meat
market from which they had been taken.
And the game of hide and seek has
commenced again. Mr.. Meyer would
lose all interest in life if it we're not for.
Mr.. Karpen, and the game warden
would be lonesome lots of times if he had
not Hunter Jim to think about. 2

Arlington, Peter Koehler and Ad6lph
Duevel Of Minneapolis and A. ]. Alvin Of
Mound.
Shortly after the close Of the banquet
the Junior Pioneers assembled in the
lecture room for the purpose of holding
their annual meeting. The meeting
was well attended and the discussion
at times quite animated. The first
order of business after the reading Of the
minutes, was the report of officers and
committees. The Treasurer's report
showed a balance Of 1854. on hand. The
report was referred to the auditing
committee. w. G. Alvin on behalf Of
the Otter boiler committee reported
the difficulties they had to contend
with since their appointment three years
ago. His report also covered the cele-
bration which marked the successful
delivery of the boiler in the city.
The Treasurer reported that since the
last annual meeting the following had
paid the membership fee and they were
thereupon UNANIMOUSLY elected as mem
bers: Mrs. Al. o.. Olsen, Miss Kate
Kruger, Mrs. August Hummel, Mrs.
Arnold Stamm, Mrs. Henry Vedder,
John G. Siebenbrunner Mrs. Sophie
Vetter, Mrs. Mary Polta, Mrs. Otto
Kohn and Mrs. John Backer.
On behalf of the committee on the
pioneer lodge Fred Setter reported that
all their efforts to carry out the mand a. es
of the last annual meeting had proven
unavailing. He told how on account
Of the deep snow, it had become impossi-
BILE to get logs and that the committee
then took under consideration the adj
visibility of constructing the memorial
out of artificial logs made Of concrete.
The Fair. Grounds site the committee was
compelled to abandon on account of the
general opposition which manifested
itself among the old folks who felt that
the Fair Grounds was hardly the place
for it. When it was. decided to erect
a substantial building, various features
such as a rest room feature were dis
cussed, but the committee had finally
decided to do nothing further until the
New Ulm review. (New Ulm, Brown County, Minn.) 1892-1961, 1917-10-10

i
annual meeting would give all an OPP
portunity to consider the proposition
from all the angles which had presented
themselves, to the committee. There
was immediate discussion. a G. Ochs
took the position that a log cabin unless
it was built Of logs and in the manner
in which they were constructed in the
pioneer days would not be true memo
rial ard he for one would be opposed
to any other. Others spoke in SINH
lar vein and the matter was finally
disposed of by directing the committee
to build a typical log cabin and have it
erected in North German Park, if a
suitable site could be secured; if net
there, then en- the Court House square
and if this site could not be secured, the
the &C mmittee should have authority to
choose proper and convenient site
themselves.
Upon motion the President and
Secretary were Instructed to prepare
suitable resolutions of regrets to be
sent to Mrs. Kembsch of St. Paul now
over 80 years old and who besides Peter
Mack is the only surviving member Of the
original band Of pioneers who came here
in 1854. It was also decided to have the
articles Of incorporation and the by
laws printed, the same to contain a
complete list of the present membership
of the Junior Pioneers.
It was reported that during the past
year the following pioneers had passed
away: Nick Gulden, John Heymann,
Mrs. Marie Dietz, Mrs. Theresa Henle,
Mrs. Sophia Backer and Mrs. Marga-
retha Wiedenmann. In their memory
the Junior Pioneers gave rising vote
of respect.
The committee in charge of the
banquet was voted the thanks of the
meeting for their efficient handling Of
the function; resolutions of thanks were
accorded those who took part in the
program and the owners of automobiles
who placed them at the disposal of the
committee to bring the old folks to the
hall and take them home again, Thanks
were also voted Mrs. Anna Maltzahn
for donating upon two different occa-
