In line with,a bdlef whl(Sl f% fiXVt
always held, the New Ulm Publishing
Company is this week turning over its
business into the hands of its employees
who have helped to create the structure
that has been built up during the past
seven years. We have always contended
that the worker should control the tools
of production and we have worked to
that end with unfailing interest, hoping
that the time would come when the
employees of the plant would find them
selves sufficiently familiar with the
work to be able to handle the proposi
tion independent of our active assistance.
The past two years have called for unsual
effort on the part of everyone busi
ness end the printing business labored
under the burden of extreme scarcity
of help and of material together with
rapidly increasing costs and the enlarged
demand caused by war and post-war
conditions There was more work to
be done and fewer people to do it. Only
by the most strenuous efforts could the
task be accomplished and only because
our employees stood valiantly by us
through it all, working often almost
night and day, were we able to pull
through successfully. They have thus
proved their interest in the work, their
dependability, and during the summer
while we were absent they also proved
their ability to handle the entire business.
We have, therefore, dating from Septem
ber 1, turned over £o them as lessees, the
entire business of the New Ulm Publish
ing Company. The new company will
be known as the United Press and
Publishing Company.
The firm consists of the following
members' John Woebke, Emma
Hellmann, Arthur Kachel and Lawrence
Lang They will retain in their em
ploy all of the former help and will
conduct the business in the same loca
tion We have every confidence that
these young people will carry on the
policy we have pursued of giving the
public the best service of which they
are capable at a fair return for their
work and also that they will fight the
battles of the common people against
autocracy every form as we have
done to the best of our ability.
Possibly we could have turned over
the plant a couple of years ago
andmember
would have done so, if sinister forces
had not been at work to criish any and
every one who dared oppose them in
their war methods. We felt that we
should stay on the job and take the
brunt of the fight rather than unload
at such a time. Now that the war for
true democracy has been won, now that
we are convinced that our views on
democracy will finally prevail, we are
3erfectly willing to turn over the plant
to our help, knowing that they, too, have
learned the great lesson of true derrc
cracy and will continue to publish the
Uew Ulm Review as an independent
organ and in the interests of the common
people.
We take this opportunity to express
to all our true and tried friends who
stood by us when we fought the battle
for liberty our heartfelt thanks and
to assure them that we are grateful
for the opportunity of having been able
to be of assistance to them even though
the work at times became lather stren
uous We hope thai they will continue
to give their patronage and supporrt
to our successors even in a more marked
degree than it was accorded to us, be
cause the young people too will have
many things to contend with that are
calculated to make the most courageous
falter.

Our Principles.
Commencing with thjs issue,
REVIEW will be published by a
firm composed of employees of
New Ulm Publishing Company,
idea of a co-operati\e plant has long
"been cherished by its owners and but
for the war would have Deen put .into
operation some time ago. Mr. Stein
hauser has several times expressed his
opinion in regard to co-operative plants
and believes that the time is coming when
all large factories and offices will be
operated by the employees themselves.

The
Consequently he is willing to try out the
plan and let his plant be the first of its?
kind to be run under those conditions.
The former managers have always
had the inttr st of theiremployees upper
most in,mind and have always been
willing to fight for the laboring man
hi the great battle for justice. It is
tk!e regretted that there are few like
them, that there are but few-who are
willing to 'practice what they preach
and give the laboring man a chance
to get the fall value of his labor.
They have been through strenuous
times when it would have been to their
pecuniary advantage to throw up the
fight and let the laboring man fight
oas wmm
his battles alone but they remained
true to their principles and have fought
the battles of the oppressed—and won.
They have been harrassed and lied about.
Incidents have been laid at their door
of which they had absolutely no knowl
edge whatever. But down in their
hearts their oppressors admire them
for standing up for their principles and
foremost 6f all, admire th^ way in which
they have always backed the Constitu
tion of the United Stajtes and downed
autocracy at every possible chance.
In taking oyer the REVIEW it shall
always be the endeavor of the new com
pany to abide' by these principles, ^to
uelprthe laboring mw* kHHUlf from
the shackles of capital to support the
Constitution of this nation to forever
continue the fight against autocracy
and above all to fight the battles of our
country and to fight for that flag which
the founders of
handed down to the present genera
tion a flag which shall be second to
none but shall wave above them all
The columns of the Review will always
be at the service of the public. It shall
always be our aim to help build up the,
city and gain back for it the good.name
which it once possessed but which the
lying press of the country has blackened
to its fullest power. Right is might
and although it will take time the truth
is bound to win and New Ulm can soon
expect to regain its former place.S
In regard to the business end of the
company we shall always endeavor to
give quality and service in aH jobs turned
out and if we give these we are sure to
give the satisfaction which we would
like to Ijive to all our customers. It
will be our aim to give our readers the
news as quick as possible and we shall
be glad to rectify any mistakes which
may occur.

dence of all our readers and always

Mr. Wilson is now trying to reorganize
a country which was in danger of degen
erating into a republic during his absence
abroad* O
Had the recent race riots occurred
in Moscow and Petrograd instead of
Chicago and Washington, millions of
Americans would unfailingly have hailed
them as evidence of Russia's inability
to govern itself.
"All the elements of greed, personal
suspicion and jealousy are only too
evident in almost every article of the
peace treaty.* It is worse for us than
even the League of Nations, bad as it
is These sentences are from a speech
by Senator Walsh of Massachusetts,
of*the President's own party..
The people of Brown County may well
be congratulated on their loyal support
of their county fair. Tuesday saw one
of the biggest gatherings in the history
of this part of the state. The real
fruits of this support will be felt in years
to come,—we are building for the future.

A printed petition isieing circulated,

One explanation that has been given
of Mr. Wflson's concessions to French,,
British, Italian and Japanese Imperialism
and of his lamentable compromise on
his pr nciples is that he ieared^to precipi
tate a revolution in France if he retired
from the peace conference. "It, is
possible" says Robert Dell in a letter
to The Dial, "that the explanation has
some foundation and if Mr. Wilson had
such a fear, there was some justification
for it. But it is not a sufficient reason
for his capitulation, for, if the fear be
justified, the French government at any
rate would have yielded rather than allow
Mr. Wilson to withdraw And Mr. Wil
son's capitulation has only made the
revolution more certain. Had he stood
firm and secured a peace in accordance
with the principles which he laid down
and which the Allies and Germany aq
ce'pted, he might have saved bourgeois
society at least for a tune. His failure
is regarded as the final failure of the
bourgeiosie and has convinced the mass
of the people whose hopes in him have
been so bitterly disappointed, that there
is nothing*to hope from a capitalist
society and that only a radical change
can make possible the ideals which Mr.
Wilson aimed at and has failed to attain."
two short years have past since
that memorable anti-draft meeting at
T^-roe* Hall Park and already a mighty
change is noticeable in the criticism
of that event. The judgment of history
is beginning to#make itself felt and
throw a new light on the spirit of our
people. The men who were abused in
the vilest language as disloyalists and
traitors to th«nr country, for partici
pation in that meeting are being exoner
ated fro*r the sins they were accused of
having ccmritted against America. Mr.
Lundeen, a man who, as Congressman j®
has gained a clearer vision of everything
connected with the late war tells them
that they were the real true-blue Ameri
cans and that they fought for the very
principles dear to every American since
the days of the Uberatipn from ,the
British yoke. f* H4A
We must not have any special alli
ances or secret treaties," said the Presi
dent.^"Therefore any special alliances
which we may have must be kept secret."
"I don't quite see that, said the
Senator.

triumphantly,^ "it would break the
heart of the world." WM ,T

SEED. CORN TIME.
September 10-20 has been set aside
as seed corn picking time in this county.
During that time every man in the
county will make it his business to
select more-than enough seed to plant
his corn acreage in 1920. Picking seed
corn from the field may not be the most
pleasant job in the world but ii is one of
the best paying pieces of work a man can
undertake.

Everything and a little bit more in
the way of a musical diversion is "Oh
Girlie, Girlie," appearing at the Turner
Theatre on Wednesday Sept. 10, for one
performance only. Jf
It is a genuinely "funny farce, a rol
licking story, supplemented pleasantly
by a sparkling musical score, linking
together a dozen or more clever lyrics,
and the entirely possesses more points
of comic interest than anything on its
order this season. ^*^*f§%fflj|
A very great deal of the comedy
brilliance is made doubly clever by the
drolleries of JOS. SHRINER, MORTON
and GIBSON and ANN RAYMOND.
The music of "Oh Girlie, Girlie" is
tuneful in the extreme, the whistling
la-la-la, of foottapping tunes. There
is one number especially, called "When
the Preacher Makes You Mine,", which
is efficient reason, all of itself, for the
delightfulness and popular appeal of
t'Ob. Girlie, Girlie," and there's a glo
rious Girlie, Girlie Chorus, which aids
and abets the song and dance specialties,
and together with the scenic equipment
and stunning gowns, tends to make this
one of the events of the theatre-going
public.
