the Central High Principalship-
Rumor That Prof. Bryant May
Return to the Humboldt, Prof.
Baker to the Jefferson, Prof.
Welch to the Central STAFF.
There is q lot Of wirepulling going on,
according to report, in connection with
the makeup of next years staff at the
Central high school. Aid. Sanborn and
ex-Gov. McGill are among the stanchest
of Principal Bryant's friends, and they
have been wrestling with members of the
board Of school inspectors with the hope
of influencing any action looking to a
change in the principalship of the school.
The board is to hold meeting soon,
but it win not be executive" says Presi-
dent Zimmerman. He always laughs when
he says this. For when the board does
meet, which will probably be this week,
1t Will be to caucus upon the situation,
and it will be in the library OF one of the
members And after the attache Of a
morning paper has. been once more en-
Joined to secrecy the board will meet in
regular session June Z, and pass upon all
matters as routine.
The situation at the Central high school
is not the only annoying one. There arc
other problems for the board to solve
AT the Jefferson school everything has
not run with ball-bearing smoothness,
and a change may be necessary there. In
fact If Principal Bryant will consent to
go back to the Humboldt, Prof. Baker
will be sent over to the Jefferson school,
The patrons of the Jefferson school would
welcome back Prof Baker, who has been
q prominent figure among them for a
generation. Prof WEIGH will be given his
old position in the Central high school, If
the foregoing becomes a fact. It is said
that Mr.. WEIGH is a better teacher than
principal. This has been frequently as
serted since he took charge of the Jeffer-
son, and the change to his old position
would not be unwelcOme to him. it is said
Pror. Baker has been quite successful
at the Humboldt high school, but all his
friends are on this side Of the river. and
as the condition at the Jefferson might
De improved by change. it is quite prob
able that the Jefferson people will have
him back again An outside man Is be-
Ing inquired upon for the Central high
school. This is the plan as about agreed
upon. Its adoption all depends upon the
power of the pull Of those who are try
Ing to influence the board
1t has been frequently said among
school officials that the superintendency
Is snap compared with the principalship
of the Central high school This is be-
coming quite generally recognized and
there is no one in ST. Paul now connected
with the schools who has been remotely
considered as probable successor to
Principal Bryant, unless 1t be Prof. J. D.
Bond, of the Madison school.
There is no disposition on the part of
the board to take Mr.. Bond away from
the Madison school. The Madison school
is the largest graded school in the state.
and of necessity the most difficult 10
handle.
There are many in the schools who
might aspire to these places and fill them
capably, but 1t is doubtful If the board
will apply the civil service idea hereafter
to the more important prineipalships

In LABOR7S
........F field

That there has recently been great
change among business men regarding
labor organizations is undeniable. In the
past ii has been claimed that labor I'M
lens were tyrannical, that they. had. In
fact, no right to exist Retail merchants
and manufacturers were full of alleged
arguments to show why labcring classes
should not organize tor their own pro-
lection. The claim was advanced by
some of the opponents of organized labor
that If the worhingmen believed they
were wronged they should have recourse
TO the ballot, that they should, In fact,
redress their wrongs, If any existed,
which was very much doubted, by vot-
ing for one or the other of the old parties.
The idea was laughed to scorn by GER
tain business men that because capital
had combined and was crushing the life
out of labor, a sufficient excuse existed
for trades unions. Now there is change,
and rapidly growing change Of senti-
ment, especially among the merchants
and others who handle the output of gil
gantic trusts. Those who formerly de-
nounced organized labor In no unmeaS-
lTed terms, now see that only by organi-
zation-close, stern, disciplined organiza-
tion-can the worlIiagman protect him
self from the audacious encroachment of
combined capital invested in capital
stocks running all the way from $4,000
coo to $50, 100000. The new bicycle trust is
al example of the maximum capital of
such combinations. No one can logically
apologize for the trust ana at the same
time deny the right of labor to combine
its forces. Possibly this growing len
icncy and friendliness exhibited today In
the attitude of the average business man
toward organized labor can be accounted
for by the unblushlng effrontery Of trusts
organized under the New Jersey corpora
ton laws. At least the rapid increase
of membership in the various unions
throughout the country would seem to
warrant such conclusion.

BARRIERS Sunday Closing Law.

The BARRIERS Sunday closing law has
been tested in Tennessee, having been
taken to the supreme court. Judge Nc
Allister in affirming the decision of the
lower court, said:
1t is insisted by counsel that a statute
applicable to BARRIERS alone is not the
law Of the land but class legislation.
There is another statute which is general
in its application and prohibits any mer-
chant, artthcer, tradesman, farmer or
other person from carrying on business
on Sunday under penalty of So, to be
recovered before a justice of the peace.
1t is a part of the history of this legis-
lation that 1t was enacted at the urgent
solicitation of the BARRIERS themselves,
acting individually and collectively
through their organized associations A
day of rest was needed for this most
Industrious and overworked trade, and
it was admitted that without the i'm
position of a heavier penalty it could not
be secured, for no one was willing TO
close up his shop unless all were made
to do so. The fact that the legislature did
not include other occupations in this par
ticular statute and the reason for not do
ing so are things which could not be in
quired into by the courts. OF the policy
or expediency of the law the legislature
is the sole arbiter, and the law is valid,
although a certain class-the BARRIERS
have been selected upon whom 1t shall
operate.

INsOLvENT BANK RULINGS.
United States Supreme Court Passes
Upon Disputed Points.


WASHINGTON, May 15-An opinion
was rendered In the United States court
today In the case of the First National
Bank of Concord, N. H, VS. Edward
Hawkins, receiver of the indianapolis Ma
donal bank. The questions presented
for consideration in the case were wheth-
er one national bank could lawfully &C
quire and hold the stock of another as
an investment, and whether In the case
of such purchase the bank is stopped
for an assessment on stock ordered bv
the comptroller Of the currency. Both
questions were answered in the negative
by the opinion that was handed down by
Justice Shiras and the opinion of the cir
cult court of appeals for the First dis
trict was reversed.
In the case of Kent K Hayden ys
George G. Williams the supreme court to-
day decided that the receiver of a ma
tional bank cannot recover a dividend
paid out of the capital and not out of the
profits, where the stakeholder receiving
the dividend acted in good faith and when
the bank at the time was insolvent. The
bank involved was the Capital National
of Lincoln.

Found That She Did Not Have the
Money She Thought She Had.

Mrs. Schlinkerman, of West st. Paul
yesterday learned that piece of mistak-

her several hundred dollars In pension
money. Her husband died in the army
in 1853, and twenty-five years ago she was
granted pension of IS per month A
friend advised her not to draw the money
but to allow it to remain in the treasury
and accumulate until she reached old
age, 80 she confidently omitted to draw
the money. The pension law provides
that when money has not been drawn
for three years 1t reverts to the treas
ury, and that Is where Mrs. Schlinker-
mans money has gone. She has been
supporting herself by washing and sewing
all these years, thinking that her pension
money was being saved for her, but now
she will have to apply for renewal of
the pension.
