W I
and W and O are
terms use in newpaper offices and have
a distinct difference in their appli
cation than they have in most of the
other places where thej are used and
we presume in that sense the president
of the New Dim Rura Telephone Co
uses it as the editorial when he
says his last week aiticle 'It is
owned and opeiated by us
If that is not the case then he refers
to the stockholders of the company
They ai the lefeired to Now
there is this difference between a com
petitive telephone business and com
petition in an other business I the
groceiy business a man does not have
to buy two or thiee lots to get one he
does not have to buv two wagons to
get one but in the telephone business
he has to buy two phones to get the
service of one
If the New Ulm Ru al Telephone Co
will buy up the other and operate so as
to cover the entn field as the Minne
sota Central does now, there can be no
excuse for objection, but in dividing
the small business that this city offers
it simply puts an iniquitous taxation
on all, who of necessity, have to cover
the entire field
The leferred to in the Journa
article undoubtedlj means the stock
holders of the new company, and they
by no means comprv the entire popu
lation of the city, and when the time
foi dividends comes, and a number of
the smaller stockholdeis have been
bought up and a vei few comprize the
company, how many of the citizens of
this city are going to sa with a great
degree of pride 'it is owned and opei
ated by
The truth of the mattei is, it is a
business enterprise, puie and simple,
just as the Minnesota Centi al waswhen
so many of the people of this city put
their money into it and many of them
still have their money there have
the pride of ownership that the Journa
claims foi it it must be a municipal
affair, the same as thcelectn light
system
The Review foi sometime has been
paying for two phones one in the office
and one the 100ms in the Boesch
building foi one the chaige has been
81 a month, foi the othei $2, and there
as been no a\ oritism But that is
neither here nor there W have jet
to find anything free in this city, ex
cept the an we breath and if the editor
of the Journa had his a we would
be taxed foi that
It is because there a good many of
s" who do not shaie in the stock of
the new companj and some of
have stock in the old company and
theie is no call for two companj a that
we object to the double taxation I is
a good deal of a Joh Rockefellei
affair on a small scale where the
supplv of oil is no bettei but the pi ice
twice as high
The fact that all this tiouble could
have been avoided as it is avoided
in Sleepy Eye makes the circumstances
all the more deploi able The business
men of this city do not caie whether
thej pay $2 a month to Mi Liesch's
company oi to Di Schoch & company
Thej are not so unieasonable as to
suppose that eithei one of them is go
ing to operate at a loss Both ai in
the field to make mone\ on the invest
ment and pay salaries to the officers
and Mr Liesch is piesident
an I
That depends upon the man, his
ti aining his judgement, his hustle and
peisistence Two voung men a few
a is a^o rented a a a for what
the natives consideied exceedinglj
high lent So thej weic \er fiee in
their use of the expression 'Thev will
never make the ient Bu had thej
consideied the men—the mettle Now
this lent was exacth ten poi cent of
what the owner had just paid for the
place—i good investment to be suie,
foi monej on leal estate could be had
at 5 pei cent "Vv ell, at the end of the
veai thev each id cleaieJ in amount
equal to the lent—10 per cent—making
r^^rgMSE a
the gross returns over 30 per cent in
one year This was a showing to be
proud of, certainly Th owner, see
ing their success, decided to farm it
next year—that he, too, could beat 10
per cent They farmed on the princi
ple of raising feed and feeding to
profitable stock, thus doubling the
profits Thej gave their entire atten
tion to their work, made all points
count, saved their feed the best
shape, possible All the while the
calamity howlers who predicted defeat
and owned hardl more than enough
land to whip a dog on, gossiped at the
postoffice One man steps in and
makes a toitune where his predecessor
has ignominously failed I have in
mind a young man, a hustler in the
fullest sense of the word, who buys a
farm, sets to woik to improving it,
raises large crops, feeds hogs and
cattle, and tries to make every acre a
piofitable and bettei one I a few
years he sells the farm for a handsome
profit, besides clearing each yeai a
nice income then buys another
farm to work up, improve and sell for
a profit Such is going on everywhere

Assuming that Liesch is as
smart and brainy as he would have us
all believe and the writer has even
less brains than the real writer of the
Journal and that isn't assuming a
great deal, it is hardly fair to the rest
of the people of the city that one man
should possess the brains of the com
munity W find by implication that
the head of the brains department of
the Journa finds that Flor has
no brains, Wicherski has no
brains, Eibner has no brains,
Hoidale has no brains, McClearj
has no brains, Kroo had no
brains a short time ago, the editor ol
the News had no brains until recently

with a an and there are many moie
instances where the brain measuier
has found reputable men to be lacking

"Th newspaper that carries saloon
ads and patent medicine locals has
little prestige with the people An
when it attempts to sermonize on moral
and political wrongs the people have a
right to giggle at its inconsistency
So a the a Tribune which
is apparently one of the verv few
papers in the state carrying on its
local side neither "saloo a nor
patent medicine announcements, but
just turn to the side of the paper owned
bv the trust and you will find nothing
else but medicine ads Th Tribune
is right, the paper or person who sets
himself up to be the judge of others
should be morally clean himself but
we fail to see wheie carrying any class
of advertising licensed by the people
to do business has an thing to do with
moral or political wiongs Newspapers

GILBERT H. GILBERT IS RESCUED
Le* Sueur Lyre Tells of Distress of
Alleged New Ulm Party.
E S E Minn Special, July 12
—A relief oarty from Sueur went
up the river in two naptha launches
today and rescued the family of Gil
bert Gilbert from a deadly peril in
which thej had been for three days on
account of the high water
A couple of boys in a small row
boat, enroute from Mankato to S
Paul brought word of Gilbert's danger
ous situation
The night before the great rise in the
rivei, Gilbeit and his family a
from New Ulm and moved into a house
he had on a small farm he owns the
timbei on the a flats, near the
river None of the neighbors saw him
when he drove along, and did not
know the house was occupied
The ground upon which the house
stands is considerably higher than
that which lies between there and the
bluff, so that bv the time Gilbert dis
covered he was senousl threatened
by the flood, retieat already was cut
off by the floating away of a small
bridge
Hoping the water would not reach a
great height, Gilbert and his sons and
a hired man began throwing up banks
of earth around the house to protect
stuff he had in the cellar Bu the
flood came higher and higher and he
was soon on an island that the liver
was prevented by dikes from sub
meigm Th water now began to pei
colate through the loose soil of the
dike and threatened to flood the cellar
and the rest of the mciosure Gilbert
hastily rigged up a small gasoline
engine, connected it with a pump and
began to pump watei out of the cellar
as fast as it flowed in. He kept this up
night and day continuously for seven
ty-two hours, the women of the house
hold attending to the pumping while
the men and boys built up and
strengthened the dirt walls till the
water stood six feet high around them
The gasoline had just given out
when the lescuing launches arrived

Saturday evemngone hundied voters
of the school precincts of this city as
sembled at the assembly room of the
high school building pursuant to the
call for the election of two directors
for the board to take the places
made vacant by the expiration of the
terms of Pfefferle, as president an a
Schapekahm, as treasurer
The polls opened promptlj at 7 30
o'clock with one hundred voters pres
ent and of these twenty were ladies
Pfefferle presided as president and
William Julius and Joh Herzog were
appointed as judges, while Peter John
son and Eugene Pfefferle acted as
clerks
After the registration of the names
of the voters by the clerk votes were
cast foi the nominations, A W Bing
ham and Christ Reumke, Messers
Pfefferle and Schapekahn wishing to
withdi aw their names from the lists of
candidates A this point A
Fritsche nominated Reineke
as a candidate for one of the dnector
ships This came as somewhat a sur
prise to those present since nothing
had been heard pievious to the election
in legar to the doctor's intentions
Whe the surprise had left the faces
of the voters and the last vote was cast
the tellers found the results in favor
of the election of Messers A W Bing
ham and Reineke as the suc
cessors of Pfefferle and 'Schape
kahm Th number of votes cast were
99 Of these A W JBingham received
96 with three scattering, Reineke
55 and Christ Reumke 43, one man fail
ing to put in appearance in time to
cast his vote
The election of these two men as di
rectors of the school was a commend
able act on the part of the votei Both
aie enterpiismg business men who will
without doubt, make it a point to put
then interest next to the prosperity
of the schools and assist in keeping
up its advancement as has been done
by their piedecessors The resignation
of Messers Schapekahm and Pfefferle
from the board means a great deal to
their conferres who have been putting
then entire efforts towardstheprogress
of the school so as to bettei the edu
cational facilities in this citj
One thing in paiticular in regard to
the recent election was the pleasure
the board took in finding a good num
ber of women voters present and also
in the enthusiasm with which they cai
on the election It is thefhs vear
known in the history of the school
elections that the ladies weie so well
represented and it is hoped the
board that then number ma be in
creased bv next vear It is foi their
interests as well as for the men they
appear at these places and have a voice
in the school affairs of the citj
