The appointment, by Governor Pierce,
Of Rey. DR.. Ward, president of the Ysnk-
ton college, as territorial superintend-
ent of instruction was surprise. as it
it had been supposed that General
Beadle would be retained in the place.
DR.. Wards ability is unquestioned and
he is in every way adapted to the duties
Of the position which General Beadle
has filled with signal success. But DR..
Ward had not been thought of in this
connection, because he is 30 deeply inn
mersed in college work, to
which he has given his undivided atten-
tion during the past two years. Hence
the surprise. Our Bismarck telegram
indicates that he was not consulted rela-
tive to the appointment and that he will
be surprised along with the rest of US.
His acceptance is in doubt. He is now
somewhere in the east, beyond the reach
of the interviewer.

is certainly not over fifty dollars. But

Now it seems to us that there is some.
thing wrong somewhere-tha the cost Of

from Fargo to Yankton over $223.OO. II
the fault is in the Law, then the people
demand that the law shall be corrected

within the bounds Of reason. II the fault
is in the auditor. in allowing unjust and
unreasonable bills, then let him be called
to account for direlection of duty.

Smyth Won The Day

Rev. Newman Smyth of New Haven, is a
native of Brunswick Maine, and son of
the late Professor Smyth of Bowdon Col
lepe. Mr. Smyth is one of the happiest of
companions. One thing there Is that
tempts him to severity, and that is the
practice some people have OF taking hber-
ties with his name. Its spelling and Its
pronunciation are exceedingly dear to his
heart, and the poor offender who forgets
the existence of the ~" or fails to give
its fullest sound, treads on dangerous
ground. 1t is related of the preacher That
when he was hoy at the Phillips AudoVer
Academy he had one or two rather inter
estipg clashes on this point with Uncle
Sam" Taylor of pr, vious memory, whose
genial. honest face looked out over the
principals desk in those days. "Cncle
Sans" heart was Big, but it WAS hard Tor
him to believe that any such patronymic as
Smyth could grace the English language.
Newman, though, was not the lad to give
up conviction or name, wberenpon
something like the smoke OF a little war
dsed - fl II c,Gs sroam sonetimeS. 'Mr
Smith" used to be directed to translate Il
Homeric paragraph, and mt smith was
called upon to wrestle wit Euclid. 1t WAS
"Mr. Smith" this aud "Mr. Smith" that.
But "Unrle Sam waged his isht in vain.
Newman Smyth declined To answer TO the
peoeiau smith
One day, AS the story Is recalled ny an
old Andover graduate, the honest-hearted,
persistent principal nearly approached the
verge of wrath, when Newman, calmly ig-
noring all addresses not in the proper
shane, heard this order intended I his
humiliation "Smlth, you VIII remain al
ter recitation and make good your inirac-
ton of this schools rules" The COM
uand was spirited one, coming as near
to downright vigor rs ever the good sou!
of "Tncle Sam allowed. Nevertheless,
when the class starred out every seat was
vacated "Smith" was in line WITH the
rest. Then there was scene. Offended
dignity was elbowed by humor on Presi-
dent Taylor's face. He couldn't afford TO
see an order set at naught; he couldn't
help but admire the cool consistency OF the
pupil. There was but one thing to be
done, and Uncle sam did 1t Newman. as
If ali unconscious that he had been ad
dressed, moved unhesi atingly along to-
ward the door where, as If suddenly
amazed, he came to a halt AZ he heard the
Professor call ont in words emphatic
"Smyth, come here!' Smyth came. The
war was over. He was Smyth ever after,
anu Uncle Sam Taylor hal no asecdote in
after days that was dearer TO his heart
than this which told of the bare-faced de-
meanor of this favorite pupil, who has
| since become an authority in things lheo-
logical.
