Pretty nearly anybody with a

tell Mr.. Olsen why. The legisla-
ture of 1901 raised the state APP
preparation for, high schools from
500 per year to LOCO per year
and the legislature Of 1908 raised
it to 81, 600 per year. For nine
| years past the state has sub
sidised the high schools at least
500 each per year. Besides it
has created a board to carefully
supervise the high schools. Dur
ling all this time the rural schools
have got along by themselves as

Minnesota by care, attention

magnificent, progressive high

II IS perfectly evident that
there are influences at work to
defeat the proposed charter. The
form in which opposition to the
charter has thus far manifested
itself - insinuations, charges of
graft, petty faulttindings, etc,
suggests that the defeat of the
charter is desired not because it
is a bad charter, but for purely
personal reasons.
