They are trained to lead their fellows
to death, and they do this work well.

OF sheep word is passed to the pets.
and they indifferently, calmly sauntsr

AIMED AT THE DEAN
Senator Lords Bill Would Prevent
w. M. Liggett From Being
Dean and Regent.
Mutual Hail and Tornado Insurance
Companies Would Be Abolished
by Stephens Bill.

Dean w. NJ. Ligsett, of the state agr-
cultural college, is said to be the target
aimed at by a bill introduced, by Senator
Sam Lord. 1t is reported that there has
been some friction between Dean Liggett
and Principal Tucker and other members
of the agricultural college faculty in which
Mr.. Liggett has the best of the argument
as he is both a member of the faculty and
a member of the board of regents which
gives him commanding position. It is
argued that If he could be removed either
as regent or a member of the faculty, his
power and influence would be greatly re-
duced. AS he has recently been appointed
regent for six years. the attack seems to
be aimed at his position on the faculty
The language of the salient clause of the
Lord amendment is as follows:
NO person except the president of the univer
sity shall be eligible to hold the office of re-
gent of the state university who holds any office
the state board Of regents, or whose salary is
nHed or subject to change by the regents, or
whose acts or doings it is the duty Of the regents
to supervise. Investigate or control.
A lively controversy is expected when
this bill comes UP, as Dean Ligett has
many friends among the legislators.
Stephens and Mutual Insurance.
Senator A. D. Stephens Of Crookston
was not joking. when he threatened to
legislate the mutual hail, tornado and cy
clone insurance companies out of exist
ence so as to pave the way for state in
surance. This morning he sent up his
bill repeating that law authorizing the or
ganization of mutual hail and tornado
insurance companies. The companies
now in existence are to have two
years in which to collect dues, pay
claims and wind up their business.
Senator Stephens says that in the past
few years eleven of these mutual COM
