Getting Ready for Track Meet.

Getting Ready Tor Track Meet.
The boys and girls of the high school
are certainly proud of the men on the
track team. 1t seems as though they
brought home from Middlebury just about
everything that was worth bringing
Keen competition, however, on the part
o. the opposing teams made the victory a
little harder to walk off with than it has
been in former years.
The team has been working earnestly
since the MiddIebury meet and when our
there will be a real battle for certain
positions. Brattleboro stayed out of
some of the events and thus gave her
opponents the impression that she must
be weak in the dashes, but this only en-
couraged the upstate teams and il will
be a decided jolt to them if b. III. S.
walks away with some of the events
which they feel sure will be their own.
The boys have made fine start this
year in adding to their splendid collec-
ton of trophies won in athletic battles.
There are two more meets and we hope
two more victories for us. Keep up in
your studies, boys, so that we may not
be handicapped in the coming meets, and
everyone in the high school hopes you
viii come through with all the honors
next week Saturday.

We have been defeated in threee base

indian Mound in
Illinois is Largest
Earth Structure.

Egyption pyramids are among
the wonders of the world, but Lii
nois has an old Indian mound 104
feet high which covers 16 acres, is
the largest earth structure in the
world and has cubic content
greater than any Of the pyramids
of the Nile This is the Monks, D
one of the Cahokia mounds, six
miles east of East St. Louis, Ill.
A stone pyramid in Mexico ex-
ceeds this IN height, and the larg:
est Egyptian pyramid is much
higher, but the great area of
Monks makes it a world marvel.
There was movement started
last year for a state park IN which
these remarkable mounds may be
preserved. The Illinois legisla-
ture meets next January and pre-
vious to that time it is hoped to
educate public sentiment and to
bring sufficient pressure to bear to
provide for the park.
Warren X. Moorhead, who has
been working in connection with
the Phillips academy at Andover,

Kellogg Ashamed of Record.

Senator Kelloggis making the rounds
In Minnesota giving "non-politicar
speeches, whatever that is. He says
that there are matters of so great i'm
portance to talk about that he doesn't
want to discuss such un-important
things as politics.
Yep. We thought so. Senator
Kellogg's political record is SO bad
that he doesn't even want to talk
about it.
We don't blame him. About the
only way out of a bad mess is to try
to get the people to forget" politics.
Because if the ma jority of the people
sit up and take the least notice of
politics in Minnesota this year and
show any intelligent knowledge of the
political records of the candidates be-
fore the people for the office of United
States senator in congress, we will have
to write it Senator Henrik Shipstead"
after the next election and "True-to-
Every Trust" Kellogg will have to con-
tinue his work for,the big trusts with
out drawing part of his pay from taxes
paid by the common people, whose
interests he works against. = - '..

His parents had started farming in

The Cause of Trouble.

New Ulm last week celebrated
the 60th anniversary of the Indian
massacre of 1862. In talking with the
survivors Of that Indian war, the
greatest Indian war in the history of
the United States, about one thousand
whites in Minnesota being killed by
the revengeful Indians, we find all the
old pioneers absolutely united on one
point, that the Indians were not treat
ed right by certain government agents
and post traders in those early days
Every scheme imaginable was devised
by some of the avaricious and profiteer-
ing post traders, in collision with GER
tain government agents, to cheat and
rob the Indians of their money, lands,
furs, and other property.
The great majority Of the white
people were on friendly terms with the
Indians. But because of the extreme
crookedness of some Of the traders and
agents, the Indians became suspicious
of all white men and the belief settled
firmly in the heart of the Indian that
the whitr man had only one motive in
all his dealings, and that to steal the
lands and property of the red man. A
fearful hatred of the whites became an
overpowering passion with the reds,
which eliminated in the outbreak of
1862.
The terrible vengeance for the
wrongs against their race was visited
upon the traders at the agencies first,
but the passion Of the reds led them to
murder every white man, woman and
child within reach of their vengeful
power. Thus, the innocent had to
suffer with the guilty.
In our day and age, the great
majority Of the people are fundament-
ally honest. But we also now have
our profiteers who wax fat on cheating
and robbing the common people. The
helplessness of the producing and con-
suming masses is exploited now just
as the helplessness of the Indians
was exploited then.
Are the masses of whites in this
country of ours more wise than the
Indians of 1852? Can our common
people, workers, farmers and legitimate
business men, work out plan by
which the profteering of big business
can be curbed and the millions of
profits "stolen" by the unduly rich
without work of hand or brain but by
reason of their opportunity under our
unfair economic system, be turned
back to the laborers, the farmers, the
merchants and professional men who
worked with hand and brain in a use
tul way to produce wealth, to trans
port or distribute goods, to disseminate
useful knowledge, to further the health
and happiness of our people-we say,
can our people today devise a plan
whereby the profters can be curbed
without blood-shed, or will Injustice
be piled on injustice till the under dog
sees red and passion finally goes be-
yond reason with blood and carnage
in its wake, striking the just and unjust
as well? Have we learned to settle
big and difficult problems in peace
full way? Did the world war show that
we had improved or did it prove that
we act and think as savages even now?
Are we ever going to learn? Shall we
become truly civilized ever?

RED OWL OPENED SATURDAY

The Red Owl "groceteria on North
Minnesota street opened with a rush
last Saturday morning and did big
business. This kind of store, a help
yourself grocery, is new departure IN
New Ulm, although stores OF this
kind are quite common in the East.
The decorating for the new store
was done by Mueller, Zupfer & Berg,
the inside being done in a white gloss
finish with brown mahogany trim
mings. The sign in front, the picture
of a red owl, and the wording Red
OWL" is in vernillion and white. This
firm of decorators painted some seven
store fronts on Minnesota street the
week before the 60th anniversary cele-
bration.
Groceries and vegetables in the
Red Owl are put up in packages and
the price plainly marked. The customer
may help himself, gather up the things
he wants, and then go to the cashier
and pay. In. this way, fewer clerks
are needed and quick service depends
on the customers own speed.
Managers Well Pleased.
Mr.. K. L. Hart, general manager,
and Es B. DunswoftK;,s advertising
manager for the Red sOwlstores, were
in New Ulm for the opening day of the
local store. They both expressed
themselves as being surprised and
pleased by the record d-breaking patron
age Of the first day. Throngs Of peop'e
from radius of 80 miles or more
streamed through the store, they said.
They both declared that no city in
which Red Owl stores have been
opened has given a more hearty well
come than did New Uln. They be-
lieve that our city is a fine trading
center and intend to do everything
possible through widespread adver-
tising and attractive bargains to bring
more and more people to trade in this
city.
Red Owl Policy.
The Red Owl policy is to stock we'll
known, nationally advertised goods,
which the people know to be all right,
and sell, them at such low prices that
there will be no need of going to larger
cities for groceries, say the managers.

The rain Of last Saturday and Sun.
day is the best New Ulm has had this
summer, according to Alex Henle, local
weather man. The rainfall Of the two

third inches. This is not SO very big
at that, but it is the biggest rain that
New Ulm has had all year.
