Social, political and economic condi-

situation that is unique in the history

sneer and voice contempt for it's own

unusual conditions prevail in the

Working the Workers.

: It has been we'll said that the real
degradation Ges-not in working-but
in being worked.
Although, under our present topsy-
turvy social order, it is more or less
of a disgrace to do useful work, yet
intrinsically, the doing of such work
is most genuinely honorable and COM
mendable. 1t is honorable and CON-
mendable because it is beneficial to
the race. 1t makes for the forward
and upward growth of the race.
In itself, tie efore, there is nothing
in useful work which can explain the
tinge of disgrace which adhe1es to it
under the present system.
The explanation is to he sought
elsewhere.
In the early days in this country
when nearly everybody worked "cn
their own hook" as the saying goes
useful labor was held in high honor. A
man who did useful work was almost
as good as any other man. He was
not scorned as much as he is now.
But as soon as labor saving indus.
try compelled the small industries to
develop into great industries-so that
men no longer worked ION their own
hook, but began to work for others
useful work became disgraceful in the
eyes of those who were by this pre-
cess released from doing useful work.
That the dominant element Of So
ciety now looks upon useful work as
being disgraceful is evident from the
manner in which that element treats
the useful workers. Always it treats
them as belonging to the lower orders.
Useful work is considered disgraceful
because it is done under slave condi-
tions. .<.}
Slaves are always despised by theit
masters. Suckers are always despised
by those who dupe tEem.

ROADS AND RELIGION.

Z /, i !. 4 ~ i.
A short sermon, reprinted in the
Hendricks Pioneer, is by minister
who found relation between good
roads and religion:
Extremely bad roads tempt men TO
thoughts and language which are
commonly supposed to lead to perdi-
tion. At any trate one cannot ira
verse extremely bad roads without
falling into an irreligious frame Of
mind. Improving the highway that
leads to the church may make it more
possible to get the folks into the king
dom than much discussion about the
difficulties which beset the children Of
Israel in their efforts to reach the
promised land. Sunday school workers
could not do a better thing, material
ly speaking, than to preach against
the sin Of sloppy lanes and cry aloud
the gospel Of good roads"
The sermon might be used as an
additional argument why Minnesota
ought to provide more funds for its
Highway program, as other states are
doing.

he was stranger and could not under
stand German which was something
of handicap at times. If our readers
fail to find the pep in the Reoiew this
week that Mr.. Kalnes managed to get
into his matter, we hope they will be
easy on US. September is very busy
month in the Office and it is hard to do
two jobs well at the same time. Tie
new editor will be Mr.. S. A. Bowir G
!of the Minneapolis Tribune who will
be here in couple of weeks. He visit
ed New Ulm a week ago and was
much pleased with the appearance of
the city and comes here with the idea
of making it his home town. Prior to
doing newspaper work on the Tribune
he was engaged in social service work
and during the war was in war camp
work. After he found that all the
work the social service people could
do was a sort of stop gap and got no..
where because it was merely eeding
and clothing of the poor instead Of
really putting them>on their feet, he
decided to go into the newspaper work
as being the best means Of educating
the people to the needs of the day.
However, he finds that the staff Of
writer's on big city paper have no
chance to express their own opinions
and he prefers to locate in smaller
place where he can be an individual
instead of mere cog in big machine.
We are sure Mr.. Bowing will take with
New Ulm people who will find him an
able man with opinions of his own that
he is able to express in a pleasing and
instructive way. Meantime, until he
arrives, we will do the best we can to
give you the news of the town and we
ask our readers who happen to hear Of
anything of interest to call US up and
help us to get next.

The boosting of Mrs. Oleson in the

that the two candidates who are get

Queerer things than Kellogg running

THE PROPOSED TAX ON
a GASOLINE CONSUMPTION

"A CaX OF cent gallOn on g2Sonhe
ased in motor vehicles in Minnesota
during the last year would have pro-
duced not to exceed 81 ,25O,000; hence,
a scent rate would have yielded less
than is derived from the present sche-
dule of motor vehicle taxes and a z
cent rate would be necessary to fur
nish the expected $10,OO0,OOO annual
total for the trunk highway fund,
following the cut in federal highway aid.
Foregoing figures in a state highway
department bul etin today are based
on gasoline totals from the state oil
inspection Offices motor. vehicle regis
trations and receipts from the secre-
tsry Of state.
Commenting on sentiment for adding
to more fairly apportioned license fees
tax measured by gasoline consump-
ion, the bulletin states that such a
'evy at 2 cents a gallon would add
about $2,500,000 annually to the trunk
highway fund and allow tourists from
| otE>er states to contribute toward the
cost of the roads they use in Mime
sofa. 1t would take from the average
car owner about $3.50 year; but give
hin in return the use of $2,500,OOO Of
2xtra highway Improvements the first
year, $5;000,00e the second $7,5OO,O 900
the third year, ard so on, if put into
permanent betterments, or if used for
maintenance exclusively would leave
the license revenue and federal aid
virtually intact for permanent i'm
provement purposes.
Tests show that a car making Is
miles on gallon of gasoline on uni:m-
proved roads will cover from 18 to
20 miles a gallon on good roads, the
bulletin adds. Minnesota has regis
tered nearly 100000 motor vehicles,
Average annual travel is estimated at
5000 miles, making 1,75O,OOO,OOO ear
miles a year in ttis state. A saving Of
Only a cent mile on car repairs,
tires and gasoline thus wo, Id aggre-
,ate $17,5O0,000 or more than twice
the clrrent revenues now turned into
The trunk highway funds. It would
mean $50 year to the average car
owner. Another way, a saving of 4
cents gallon on gasoline consumption
would total more than $5,5OO,OOO a
year in Minnesota. Any conclusion
eads to the question of whether Min
nesota car owners care to simply di-
5ert money from automobile and tire
manufacturers and gasoline refners to
'oad betterments.
The highway department has for

Still In The Saddle.

Chaotic. What other term describes
our political condition? !. In Wiscon-
sin Senator La Toilette sweeps the
State by majority Of more than 2Q0,-
600 for his "radicalis1n" and his un-
qualified opposition to Harding and
his policies. But Maine gives some
what better than normal vote for the
Republicans while, as we 60 to press,
Henry Cabot Lodge appears to have
triunphed easily over the weak oppo-
sition to him in the primaries. In
Maryland Senator France heads the
Republican poll despite all the charges
brought against him of undue liberalism
and friendliness to Soviet Russia.
In Mississippi on the other hand,
Ex-senator Vardaman went down be-
fore much more moderate pro-Wil-
son, pro-League of Nations Democrat.
No need to mourn his loss, although
of late years he had taken some
commendable positions. One of the
worst meters to race hatred in this
country ever since he made his first
spectacular entry into jackson dressed
in white, attended by dozen girls in
white, and drawn in a white carriage
by sixteen white xen-all typifying
his devotion to Anglo-Saxon purity.
Mr.. Vardaman was past master of
the Southern art Of rising to office by
abusing the Negro. His dislike of the
War and the Treaty Of Versailles was
his redeeming quality. To return to
the Republicans, there is plainly
nothing in these latest returns from
from the polls, outside Of Wisconsin,

brazen tariff robbery, their Hardingism,
and their Daughertyis,n. Hence, their
