DR., THOS. NICHOLSON
The Accomplished Educator aud Pro-

When President Graham informed
the board of trustees Of Dakota Uni

relieved of the responsibilities of that
position, which he has held for the
past ten years with credit to himself
and the upbuilding Of the institu-

a worthy successor could be found.
For the past two years DR.. Graham
has had in his minds eye Dr.. Thos.
Nicholson, Of Mt. Vernon college,
but nothing Of a favorable reply could
be secured from him relating to the
possibility of his acceptance of the

A POPULAR IDOL
Sien0r SCREENINGS TribulatiOns Have
Not disturbed His Equanlm-
ity in the Least.

SignUr ~SOrrentino. the modest
young genius who has won fame for
himself and his Banda Rosa (Red
Band). long ago found out what it
was to be a popular idol, to have peo-
pie point and whisper and nod at
him significantly. to be asked many
times daily for his autograph. to re-
ceive sweet-sccnted anonymous notes
and gorgeous bouquets. flowers from
feminine admirers. But all this does
not turn his head and the young
leader keeps steadily about his bust
ness of making the best military
band music eve known. and occas-
ionally turning a swinging new march
to set the Young people crazy in their
desire to dance a two-step to it's
strains. Ever hear his ''Wil.ow

1t ended in the Mt. Vernon man ac-
cepting the call.
At the June commencement Of Da-
kota University DR.. Nicholson deiiv-
cred the baccalaureate address and
the annual lecture and the people of
Mitchell had then al opportunity to
judge Of something of his capabili-
ties. The learned gentleman made a
deep impression on the people who
heard him speak and the thought
was uppermost in their minds that
if the University was to have a new
president DR.. Nicholson would be
highly acceptable. The Republican
is gratitied that Dr.. Nicholson is
coming to the University and to have
secured his services when they were
sought so urgently from other and
moro important sources it certainly
is ca,";t for congratulation that he
has L.ac,u his future with the insti-
tuition of this city, and both will
grow to great usefulness.
In referring to the anticipated de-
parture OF DR.. Nicholson from Cor
nell college the NIT. Vernon Hawk
Eye pays the following tribute tc
him:
DR.. Nicholson's contemplated de-
parture from Cornell college and Mt.
Vernon has aroused the most general
expressions Of regret that so potent
and useful a factor was to be lost in

City Hall Corner Stone.

Alderman Hannett reported that
the city hall committee had taken
the steps Of ordering a handsome
cornerstone for the city hall build
ing, and suggested that arrangements
be made for laying the stone with
appropriate ceremonies within a
short time. lie stated that the stone
would very likely be here by the
opening day of the corn palace, and
suggested That inasmuch as Governor
Herried would be here on that day
to attend the opening Of the corn
palace that arrangements be made to
have the corner stone laying on that

ceremony will be held Sept. %.

' Alderman Foster presented the gas
ordinance that was up before the
council last spring, and it was read
to the council. Alderman Hannett
lead in the discussion against the or
dinance on the ground that he did
not think that the city ought to give
away a franchise without its receiv-
ing some benefit from the company
for the people. What he desired was
an amendment which would give the
council the right to amend the ordi-
nance at any time in the future as to
the price the gas should be sold.
Mr., Hitchcock thought that the COM
petition the company would have in
supplantiug kerosene and gasoline
would have a strong tendency to make
the commodity cheaper, in that the
Standard OIL Co. would be a compet-
titor for supplying kerosene and gas
oline. A proposition was made to
Mr.. Hitchcock that if the company
would furnish gas free of charge for
the city hall and library building
that the ordinance would not be OBJ
j%ectionable in it's present form. Wits
that understanding the ordinance
passed on its first reading. The COM
pany agrees to have it's plant in work.

NUMBER so.

An ordinance was introduced for
the purpose of appropriating money
with which to conduct the business
OF the city for the ensuing year. 1t
will be noticed that the total amount
is Sl9, 1928, and is $1,000 larger than
a year ago. This is due to the fact
the city has under construction a city
hall and provision must be made to
pay for it. The sum appropriated
for the various funds is as follows:
