TEACHERS ASSOCIATION HAS A
LIVELY TIME OVER ELECTION
OF OFFICERS
"oNE-MAN RULE" IS CHARGED

And While Names Were Not Mem
toned Directly, Some of the
Members Seemed to Be Looking
at the President, Who Was, How
ever, Reelected, After Long,
Hard Argument.
The st. Paul Teachers association spent
two hours yesterday afternoon in an ar
gument arising over the election of Of
ficers. 1t is charged that a "one-man
rule has crept into the association, and
the partisans on either side had it out to
finish. Indeed the finish was very bad,
for of a gathering of between two and
three hundred there were barely three
score left when the final vote was taken.
The ball was started rolling by discussion
over the eligibility of members. Those
who had not paid their dues, ETC., were
not eligible, and therefore it was neces-
sary to pass a vote permitting them to
pay up and thus enjoy the right of cleo
tive franchise. A perfect maze Of techni-
calities was brought up, and then the con-
stitution was evoked. Prof. ]. G. Donnel-
ly asserted that he had never seen the
sion that the president carried it around
in his pocket at all times. Other ironical
illusions to that important document were
made, and some one, right out in meeting,
said that ring rule in the association had
been It's downfall, ETC., when it was pro-
posed to elect officers by reclamation.
Somehow President Farnsworth conceived
the idea that the remark was made for
him, and he politely said, THANK you"
Finally it was decided to open the nomi-
nations from the various schools that had
been sent in. By this time it had grown
so dark that the presidents figure was
scarcely discernible across the room, and
Mr.. Bryant thought that if the lights were
turned on it might light up the brains of
certain ladies and gentlemen present. The
election resulted in the reelection of S. A.
Farnsworth as president, and Principal E.
Van Dyke, of the Central high school, for
vice president.
The other officers will be elected at
future meeting.
Treasurer Donnelly reported balance
on hand of 50, after paying out legal ex-
penses for the ''lost cause amounting to
$351.
Resolutions thanking Messrs. OBrien
and Albrecht for their services in the
mandamus proceedings brought to compel
the comptroller to audit the pay roll were
passed. The firm, Principal Robinson ex-
planned, had from the first refused to ac-
cept fee from the committee and their
whole service was given gratuitously.
Prof. J. c. Bryant thought that the as
ISOLATION should decide to carry the test
case brought against McCardy to the SUI
preme court. If it was known that the
association would inaugurate a broad and
III
of the teachers interests a large number
of new members would join. No action
was taken, but some of the prominent
members of the association favored, with
Mr. Bryant, definite action by the asso-

80 feet wide, and demands $500 for his
property but is wilffngfito make COM
