Yesterday afternoon when eighteen OF
them were bundled into the patrol
wagon and hauled to the police sta
ton.
In the police court this morning the
youngsters, whose ages range from Is
to 16 years, will have to answer to the
charge of petty larceny, preferred by
II. J. Britt, of ST. Paul, special agent
for the Great Northern Railroad COM
pany, who alleges that the lads have
been stealing coal and waste from the
companys cars.
None Of the boys was kept In aJil
very long, all being released on bond
before evening. In most cases the par
ents of the boys signed the bonds.
1t is suspected that Jesse James

days and evenings. There they thumbed
the pages of Dead Eye Dick" and
persued the biographies of kindred
spirits. Ordinarily fuel was not always
easy to find, and waste taken from
the Great Northern cars furnished a
good substitute.
Special Agent Britt said yesterday
afternoon: THE company should have
sent special agent to Sioux City be-
fore now. The stealing of Coles adj
ditions has been going on long time.

be accorded the bows"

A SCHOOL Innovation
Ida Grove Pupils Want Self
Government System Adop-
ted in High School
BOARD ABOUT EVENLY DIVIDED
Mass Meeting Held in Opera House to
Discuss the Question Which Prom
Uses to Be an Issue in the Next School
Election-Economy Claimed for sys-
ten-other News.

Special to Times Republican.
Ida Grove. Jan. 5.-The members OF
the Ida Grove high school have petit
toned the public school board to adopt
system of self government In the hlgh
school. The board is about evenly di-
vided on the matter, and 1t looks now
as IL 1t will be the principal issue at
the next school election. a mass meet
ing was held in the lecture room OF the
opera house. at which this radical lnno-
walton was discussed.
The meeting was addressed by Coun-
ty Superintendent Hagler and Dr.. j.
E. Conn and ]. w. Reed, members OF
the school board. Several of the stu
dents spoke in expression of the school
sentiment. The following resolution
was then unanimusly adopted for pre-
sentation to the school board:
ITO the Honorable School Board OF the
Ida Grove High School:
.Resolved by the members or the lda
Grove high school, That the present
plan of government would be greatly
improved by adopting system Oh SER
government.
1--WE. the members Of the Ida Grove
high school, hereby petition the board
of directors to grant us the privilege OF
adopting the system
.srhe Members of the Ida Grove High
School"
This resolution was brought before
meeting of the board of directors.
Four members of the board, Barney
Johnson, ]. H. Slough, j. Z. Conn and
]. w. Reed were present, and a discus
sion Of several hours took place. 1t be-
ing a foregone conclusion that the vote
would be a tie G. to p with the mem
hers present, the opponents of the
measure were very guarded In their eA-
preSsions.
The plans of the students are to Or
ganize a governing body with repre-
sentation from each class In the hlgh
school and adopt constitution ana
the necessary measures for government
during school hours and relieve the IN
structors from all responsibility other
than to teach.
This placing the government in the
hands of the pupils would result In dis
placing at least one member OF the rae
ulty, and the salary thus saved would
be applied to the equipment and main
tenance Of the school library and gym
nasium.
If the resolution is approved by the
board this will be the first high school
west Of Chicago to adopt such a plan,
and the result will be watched with
keen interest by educators everywhere
A sensational coloring was given to
the campaign to inaugurate self gov
eminent in the Ida Grove high school
last night by the resignation Of Super
intendent E. T. Shepherd. The resig-
nation of Prof. Shepherd was promptly
accepted by the board, and Miss Jessie
Johnson was appointed to succeed him.
The resignation Of Prof. Shepherd
was caused by the action of the board,
which during long session last night
voted to adopt the proposed system of
self government.
