I Every one in New Ulm should feel proud and happy that our people have at last shown that there is nothing too costly for us to have if it touches the well-being of future generations. We have decided to build a new school house, one ade quate to the needs of New Ulm. We have gulped a little about swallowing the high cost but wc got it down and tho the taste may be a bit un pleasant to some of us we are notHe making awry face—everybody knows that what v/e have done is for thecame best interests of the children and we are all going to be pleased at the results. The fact that election night was decidedly stormy and disagree able and yet so many of the people found it incumbent upon themselves to express their convictions is sig nificant and augurs well for a re awakened interest in school matters. Also the further significant fact is to be noted: the vote as cast did not indicate any factional feeling. The opposition to the bonds came, chiefly from those who oppose higher taxes.
