While we. do not. consider the
"opinion" rendered by one OF the as
sistants in the state attorney general s
office as being very "weighty,", still
we would not so far forget ourseH as
to refer to this assistant as "an en-
ploye' in the state attorney generals
office. Fortunately for New Ulm
and it's many good citizens that
we recently tied a double knot in the
"grapevine CABLE between this city
and the Twin Cities, or we would
again come in for a great deal OF
criticism for allowing Rev. Robert
Hughes of Mankato to make certain
"disloyal' utterances during his ad-
dress at the Knights of Columbus
banquet at the local Armory, Sunday
evening. He is quoted as having said
some rather derogatory things about
England, and anything anti-British
is considered disloyal by certain people
here and elsewhere. 1t is possible
however, that the "unsage' commits
sion at St. Paul will be (or probably
has been) notified by special courier
of Reverend Hughes 'unpatriotic'
statements, in which case we shall moi
be able to escape some more "un
pleasant notoriety.'

1t almost became necessary at the
recent school board meeting to ask
the attorney generals office to solve
the problem of eliminating dancing
from the local public school buildings
We doubt not a whit, that, had it been
appealed to, the an-wise opinion
factory at St. Paul would have decided
that, inasmuch as terpsichorean di-
versions are a necessary adjunct to
properly fit the high school students
for the social activities at the State
University and other centers OF higher
education, it would be contrary to
law to Danish fleet EXERCISE from the
high school curriculum. AS to his
decision relative to dancing in the
grade schools, the erudite assistant
attorney general who gave out the
bonehead opinion in the late squabble
here, would probably opine that
teaching the budding youths and
maidens the fox-trot and shimmy is Of
far greater Importance than to in
struct them in a s'furrin' language.

The Judges and the Income Tao.

The Judges and the Income 1aT. :
=: = When the Supreme Court held the
salaries of it's own members and Of the
President to be exempt from taxation,
it based the decision on clearly ex-
pressed constitutional provisions for
bidding reduction of the salaries of
federal judges and Of the President
during their term of, office. There
were opportunities to split hairs and
argue that reduction of salaries by
means of an income tax does not come
within the constitutional inhibition.
There would have been precedent for
this, for the court has on many occa-
siorls decided that other constitutional
prpyisions, equally clear, do not mean
what they say. Thus about twenty
years ago the court upheld the levy of
customs duties on imports from out
lying United States territory in spite of
C constitutional inhibition of interstate
tariffs More recently it has upheld
laws abridging freedom of speech and
of the press in spite of the First Amend
ment, has upheld convictions Of persons
denied trial by jury in spite OF the pro-
vision that "sthe trial of all crimes, ex-
cept in case of impea chment, shall be
by jury" and has construed other pro-
visions so as to make them practically
meaningless. In view of this record it

Official paper OF New Ulm, MINI.
That TOnni1.Q Letter.


Our second street contemporary
belittles our efforts in securing Tor
publication the suppressed Tonnlng
letter to former Superintendent II. u.
Hess and boasts of having been the
frstlocal newspaper to publish 1T.
We will leave it to the public to
Judge as to whether or not the follow
ing accomplishments do not constitute
at least a brief, but strenuous period
of activity: To force the Rotund
Wriggler to deviate from his sacred
rule of calumniating New Ulm and its
great majority of citizens at every
occasion, in and out of season, (Which
rule he violated by giving publicity
to the Tonning letter.; to spike the
guns of hundred and more enemies
vilhfying newspapers large and small
with a single roup d etat, reference to
the Tonning letter was originally
made in the Review two weeks ago
today, when we indicated its contents
and thereby squelched the multitude
of small-town echoes Of the lying
Twin City dailies, all of which had
condemned New Ulm and the local
board of education for several weeks
past, and, last, but by no means least,
to tie a double knot in the grapevine
cable" between New Ulm and the IWln
Cities, thus rendering it useless for the
transmission of maliciously defamatory
messages" from this end OF the
"hollow wire," Gas witness the fact
that the Twin City dailies have not so
much as peeped about our board OF
education and it's resolution re-instat-
ing German instruction in the sixth,
seventh and eighth grades OF our
public. schools, since the 'severlng"
of grapevine cable connection" }.
1t is safe bet Ito use popular
slang expression) that our second
street contemporary would never have
published the Tonning letter-and
especially not on it's front page-had
we not referred to it in previous
issue of the Review, for, as indicated
above, our second street contemporary
has long since adopted, and has stead
fastly. clung to, the policy OF giving
the widest publicity to anything that
tended to question the loyalty OF the
great majority of New Ulmites, or that
lent itself readily to its propaganda
of besmirching the fair name OF our
city, after the proper '"color" had
been added.
In conclusion it might be we'll to
add that the only ''joints" that be
came hot' in connection with the
resurrection of the tell-tale Tonning
letter were those between the head
and shoulders of a few local super
patriots whom the Tonning letter
places in a rather uncomfortable posi-
tion-and they still are presplring pro:
fusely.

is hard for layman to explain why
the learned judges were unable to split
hairs with equal facility when called
to pass on constitutional question
affecting their own personal interests.
A minority Of the court was consistent
enough to offer such an argument, but
the majority seemed to feel that the
trainers of the constitution should be
credited with ability and will to ex-
press their meaning clearly on at least
one subject.

William H. Crocker, the San Fran
cisco banker, said the other day that
in his opinion the League Of Nations
is not by any means the big issue in
this campaign. He suggested that we
cure our ills at home before we at
tempt prescribing for the world at
large. That is not bad idea. None
of us would call in a physician who
was always i'll. He would not be a
very good advertisement for himself
Contentment within our own borders
is the big issue in Mr.. Crocker's opln-
ion and until we settle our own eco
nomic dyspepsia we had better not
take on too many patients in the wait
ing room of the world.

While O. A. Olin was engaged in
picking grapes at the Will Newton
place at West Newton on Tuesday, he

though while decending ladder, he
forced the point Of the scissor against
his arm, and thus piercing the artery.
The wound caused considerable flow
OF blood and a physician from New
Ulm was summoned at once. Several
stitches were taken to close the wound

Hog Prices Continue
Weak in All Markets

CHICAGO, Nov. 22.-The hog markets of
the country were practically demoralized to-
day by the continued drog in quotations.
Heavy receipts caused by dumping of poorer
grades of hogs on the markets by growers
and lack of purchasing by packers caused
the continued decline.
The market in Chicago was off 81 and
similar drops were recorded in other leading
centers. Prices ranged around $40.
At East st. Louis violent declines in
prices made it impossible for traders to
determine the actual condition of the mar
ket with hogs off from 81 to $1.25.
INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. Nov. 23.-Hog
prices continued to drop on the indianapolis
market today. The lowest price was 1923
for rougls with the bulk of sales at $40.
This is the lowest that hogs have reached
on the local market since 1912.
PITTSBURGH. Pa, Nov. 23.--Hog prices
fell 10 cents today, prime heavies selling at
$lO.25 to $1,000 with large receipts. Cattle
and sheep markets We're dull and steady.
CLEVELAND, o., Nov. 23.-Mixed hogs

Coon Is Very Crafty
In Getting Chickens
BY JOHN RRECK

" HIS is about chapter four of
continued story, entitled
4 W R1yta coo VENDETTA It op Wta v the
these words. Il don't mind him
i him, like Oh but o. when GD It Comes comes
to chickens-those springers l
didn't get into the coop yet-why
he picks 'em right off the limb
in that old soft maple where they're
perching. I'll bet he's got feathers
enough to stuff a pillow strewed
around back of those sumachs down
by the bridge. That's how L came
to get on to him"
Last night matters had reached
the point where he was saying,
they're perching now it'd take that
coon to reach 'em. Long about dusk
I'm going to jounce 'em down and
drive 'em in. Far as he goes, I'm
not a-going to run my feet off
after that Teller. First cold snap
where l can lay my hand on him"
He meant it, too. His feet are
stih on and I'll bet he knows 1t.
You see, he took his gun along
when he went to the coop because,
"Twas dark as a pocket-just the
to run in" Now that he really
expected to do any hunting. He
"jounced' his chickens down and
got all but two of them driven in
when the old hound set up his
yelping. Just out of curiosity, Of
course. Bert went to see what he
was running. He went something
better than two miles, at a right
smart speed, on a dark night, over
very rough going, and he sot a
real nice skunk skin. He felt like
sitting down awhile by the time he
got home. Anyway, those two
chickens that were left out didn't
BILE about them. He forgot he'd
left the chicken coop door standing
open.
Bert was right. 1t was just the
kind of night for that , coon to to
be rambling, somewhat later In
and came out again, without think
ing to close the door after him
either. He took nice white pull
let, but he didn't eat it behind the
sumachs. The hound found some of
it under thorn bush this morn
"Just you wait" says Bert. GAS
soon as it's froze up good and
hard I'll get him. l know just
about where he hangs out and he's
got to come down and get one
more good drink before he settles
down to Study sleeping"
I'm not betting either way. Bert
knows a heap more than / do about
coons, but this coon seems to know
his man. It's going to be a battle
of wits between them. Yet I have
suspicion that this account will
stand on Bert's books when he
starts the new year, still open.
