Foirmomt's t:Brave" Soldiers

Fairmont has brave bunch of
soldiers. The Fairmont company is a
member of Mollison's Second regiment.
Sunday, August 10, the Fairmont ball
team came to New Ulm and was defeated
in a game with the local ball players.
A return game was arranged, to be played
at Fairmont, but the captain has refused
to allow the members of the New Ulm
players to enter within the gates of that
3'holy' city.
The question now asked is, IF Fair
mont's tin soldiers are afraid of a
dozen New Ulm ball players, what kind
of spectacle will they make when they
get over into France and are obliged to
face real Germans?"

let them rave. Last week we ventured
to suggest that things had come to a
pretty pass when those in temporary
authority could override the provisions
of national, state and city constitutions
without protest from any except those
whose Liberties were curtailed. IA mild
protest it was; nothing more than So
sliloquy upon the general selfishness
which pervades society today and dulls
the sense of justice. But mild as it
was, it called forth snarls of we'll simulat-
ed anger from the penny press who are
bound by their bargain to rouse all the
hatred they can engender toward any
thing remotely connected with Germany.
Anything to sell a paper or two and to
hold their job as mistress of the war
makers. And Long Distance Fighter
Joe Of the Mankato Free Press rails along
after them like small boy on the OUT
skirts of a mob, yelling excitedly and
ecstatically because something is happen
ing up in front tho he has no idea what
all the row is about.
However, the Review feels called
upon to express its deep-felt gratitude
Ito the Minneapolis Tribune and to the
Free Press for the wide publicity given
our protest. When the item was pub
lished in the Review we hadn't the
slightest idea that it would reach any
more than our own limited circle of
readers. The Free Press prints it in full
and thus gives us the benefit Of reaching
each and every one of it's subscribers,
meanwhile characterizing it as rotten
stuff calculated to corrupt their patriotic
readers. Slightly inconsistent, but we
don't mind that if Joe doesn't. And
then there's the big. list of Tribune
readers. It's not often a big city daily
will give it's whole first editorial column
to the propagation of doctrine opposed
to it's money policy. We don't quite
understand their generosity but we are
quite willing to profit by the chance to
''use'' the Tribune as an advertising
medium without paying for the space.
Keep right on gentlemen; we'll publish a
protest every week if you will copy it for
us in your columns and thus help us
to get big audience.

Erickson EI0n0r0tes VOgel

Last week it was stated on the street
that L. G. <Vogel had been invited to
lead the parade at loyalty meeting to
abe held at Springfield last Sunday. The
invitation, it was said had been extended
10y one Aug. G.. Erickson, lawyer, editor
land loyalty manager for the village of
Springfield.
Saturday evenings Minneapolis Jour
nal contained a story to the effect that
Mr.. Vo-el had begged the privilege of
conducting the parade, but had been
refused the honor, but had been told
that he might occupy place on the plat
form.
Upon reading the Journals story, DR..
J. H. Vogel called Mr.. Erickson on the
telephone and asked him if he had in
vited his brother to lead the parade. He
said he did, but acknowledged that he
had no authority to do so. He further
denied that he knew anything of the
source of the Journal story, which he
said was absolutely false.
Springfield men and the Minneapolis
papers are STOPPING mighty low these
days to make case against New Ulm
and to be little and injure her citizens.
A lawyer at Austin Sunday, addressing
a loyalty meeting there is reported tc
have accused New Ulm of breaking uI
Company A. He no doubt knew that
two men were absolutely responsible fol
that act, and that those two men are
none other than Colonel Mollison anc
Governor Burnquist.
He may not have known that they die
it deliberately, but that is just exactly
what they did.

ANOTHER SIDE TO THAT
EXEMPTION CLAIM STORY
Minneapolis Man Was Exempted
As Physically Unfit.

Lowell L. Morrill,, son of Rev. G: T..
Morrill, of Minneapolis has been CITING
a lot of unjust criticism from the metro
politan and country press because Of
what purported to be claim for exemp-
ton for the reason that he was needed by
his father in his church, charity and
literary work. Mr.. Morrill, was exempted
by the seventh ward exemption board in
Minneapolis because he was declared
physically unfit, and then later recalled
and accepted.
To make his position understood by
the public, Mr.. Morrill, has issued the
following statement which was printed
in a Minneapolis newspaper:
''After my physical examination by
the Seventh Ward Board, I was told by
O.. A. Walstad, chairman, that on ac-
count of defective vision did not pass,
that I was discharged and would receive
notification of discharge thru the mail.
II then consulted an expert oculist,
who found had bad case of myopia
and astigmatism and fitted me with
glasses.
Then, after legal time for filing
exemption claim had passed, the above
board notified me that I was physically
fit. When I showed the notification to
the clerk, G. ]. Lundquist, he consulted
my examination papers and told me to
disregard the notice. However, he was
overruled by one of the board doctors
who asked me to take my case to the
Appeal Board.
Thru w. G. Edgar, the Appeal Board
said they had nothing to do with the
case and informed me to abide by the
decision Of the local board. When
asked said board to allow me to file al
exemption on account Of poor vision,
i was told by one member that it was toe
late to file an exemption, and another
member refused to let me make such {
claim since the doctors were disagreed

CONSERVATION For Wealth


Senator Robert M. La Toilette last
week, in a three hours speech in the
United Safes senate, advocated the
adoption of the minority report on the
revenue bill, which proposes to increase
the taxes on incomes and war profits.
He said that his amendment would sub
stantially increase these taxes, and by
doing SO levy proper taxes on the rich.
After declaring that by increasing the
rate on incomes by making the tax 80
per cent on incomes more than $4,000
and increasing gradually until so per
cent was raised on incomes of more than
$2,000,9Q0, Mr.. La Toilette said this
would yield $658,787,434 instead Of
SALT, 763, 083 estimated to result from the
pending bill.
Mr.. La Toilette presented list of in
comes Of more than $2,OOO,00O annually,
based On figures of 1918. He declared
that these incomes, in many instances,
had been trebled since the European
war began, and were constantly growing
since the United States got into the
game.
Mr.. La Toilette heads his list with the
name of John D. Rockefeller, who with
capital Of $500, ooo,oo has an income
of $5O,O00,OG0; Andrew Carnegie is
worth $300,000,000, and draws down
l$15,000,000. Others are as follows:
William Rockefeller, $20O,0OO,00O, with
and income of $2O,OOO,000; Marshall
Field Estate, $4,000, 900, income $780,
600, 1000, and so on down the list.
'What does a tax of so pei cent mean
upon incomes like these?" he asked
What for that matter, does a tax Of 40
per cent mean upon incomes of $50, 900
or $4,000 or AZ per cent upon inccm, s
Of 100000 or Of As per cent upon in
comes Of $25O,0OO? It leaves the priE.
cipal untouched, which will produce TIE
same, or larger amounts the next year.
This is not conscripting wealth at all
It is merely taking percentage, all toe
small, Of surplus income. In no respect
! can it be compared with the CONSUMPTION
J, of men. Every comfort and every
luxury that mortal man could desire i
still within the reach of the possessors q
!, these incomes after every dollar has beer
taken which my proposed efdraen!
would take. .=ss'.>s---ss.s-sss-s.s' !.

THE Penny Press

Another tempest in teapot was
brewed last week when the New Ulm
Review dared to suggest that nothing in
the laws of Free America" at peace
or at war, could be construed to mean
that people must muzzle their thoughts.
For the past month the prostitute press
Of the cities has wantonly displayed
its shame by publishing bought editorials
on the New Ulm meeting. New Ulm,
secure in the belief that all have a right
to their own opinions and right to
express them, has smiled indulgently at
the rawlings Of the money patriots and

Alwags On The JOB

: . . y j. 2 s ii
Springfield held big loyalty meeting
Sunday. There was plenty of enthu-
siasm, number of good speakers and a
large crowd.
The managers had to spill the beans,
however, by placing Frank Day. of Fair
mont on the program as a speaker. Day
has been famous as a political four
flusher in this state for several years,
and it's about time he was squelched.
It's limited in some quarters, and with
a good deal of sound reasoning, that
Days present overdose of patriotism
has a good deal of politics mixed in,
from which he expects to reap rich
harvest in the future.

RUSSIAN IDEALS.

Charles Edward Russell who ac. companied the Root Mission to Russia, to which mission he was appointed by President Wilson and which he very rightly as We think accepted, h.; $ returned to tell Amer ca about Russia. and although abused for doing as he has done, Russcl is telling the truth about Russia.
 He is telling US what people wanted to know and the Russia that ke cav and observed should be known to all
 He tells us that Russia has no dreams of world empire. He tells us that Russil doesn't care whoop about the commercial conquest os the world. He tells up that what Russia wants is a democracy, real democracy removed from the realm of imperialism in politics or trade.
 That will nelp US to understand something. That will explain why the Russian people are not so much concerned about the war as about building up their internal orgaai- zation which will realize their ideals
 It is peculiar to people who have been spreading the idea that they had all of them a whiteman's burd- en to pack, had all of them mis- sions to civilize and to assimilatc to understand that there is a race in this world whose ideals are so vulgarly proletarian as not to re- joice In hugo balance sheets, tre mcndcus exports. great financial centers and enormous accumulated wealth.
 It would be very well to under stand that Russia has totally diff ferent ideas of democracy to Wall Street. It is we'll to understand that Ru~sia is alive to the necess- ity of preventing any such condi- ton when copper barons can at their own sweet will supend the constitution ard dcport work CTS who ask for higher wages and where such a condition did prevail you could not persuade them by hook or by crook that such was a demo- cracy.
 Russia has long row and a hard row of stumps ahead of it. But it's workers are determined men. above all men with vision
 It is the men with vision who make the world progress. We owe

sounds for and against just be- cause they want everyone to look d. them There is a very real question which they arc threshing cut, but it does not concern the workers little bit.
 This question is whether the little fellow in business. in industry, com mcrce or finance is to let the big fellow get by easily or whether the big fellow s to be allowed to use the war as prctext to swallow the little fellows wealth and to shove him robbed clean into the ranks of the workers who have neither money nor property.
 It is quite a question. The little fellows are not going to give up without a struggle and they are not going to be wiped of the map without squealing. They are doing both But they are also trying to make the workingman think that it's for them they are battling when it's for their own precious hide.
 And the workers are falling for it good and plenty. They are gett- ing in many places all worked up over it for you often find that it's easier to get people excited over which they have no con cern whatever than over matter about which they should most cer- ta:nly be anxious.
 So they have a conglOmeratiOn of middle class sharks in the guise of reformers who suddenly feel that they are suffering and sympathiz- ing with the workers in this mat ter when they are suffering and sympathizing themselves oser it, They realize their danger. They know that they are to be stripped clean and they don't like the war expenses. They want a peace imme- diately, some of them. or if they cant get peace they want the eE- cess profits that they don't share taxed to the limit.
 They don't say much about seiz- ing all property for the benefit of the war; eliminating private owner ship in industry for the nation they want system of taxation that will gorge on the richmcn and le2ve the middle class business men in any line alone,
 They have some propaganda and it's good rropaganda stuff, stuff that you can get by with after a fashion, if it wasn't for the fact that so many sCnators are such sticklers for the privileged classes they cant be coaxcd or cajoled or worried into doing as it is urged they should do.
The daily Nome industrial worker., 1917-09-17

everything we are to day to the men with vision. There's not one little political liberty however small, however poorly enforced, however frequently suspended, how ever so often menaced, but we owe it to the men in all lands who had the vision.
 And we say it without fear of error that the only way this would can be made better, now or at any time, is by the men with such q vision Always, today as yesterday, it is woe to the men of little faith-the cantankerous men who have neither soul nor sympathy neither vision nor grasp of imagina- tion to stimulate reason and to ln- spere action, there men may indeed as of old weep for themselves and for their children.
 Everything that the men with ideals wish to be accomplished will not be accomplished without labor and travail The Russian republic, it would be too much to expect, will enter at once into it's own-prob- ably not for considerable time not for many year of struggle with all kinds of reactionary forces that are likely to hedge around with impeachment and obstacle the design sought after.
 But it is even now enough to know that in the east of Europe giant has arisen with a determina- tion that democracy will not be a meaningless word, made barren ot it's great significance by useless re- petition. the husk without the kernel. but a living thing to in- spire and to guide mems lives, in their confidence and belief in their fellow men.
