BOARD OF CONTROL
BETWEEN TWO FIRES
Sanatorlum Commission and
Board of University Regents
Charge Favoritism

There is a merry war on among the
state Institutions in which the board of
control. and more particularly it's chair
man, J. F. Jacobson, is the center.
The facts leaked out yesterday as the
result of a conference of several hours
duration between DR.. H. L. Taylor, st.
Paul; DR.. G. S. Wattam, Warner, Mimi,
and the members of the state board of
control at the capitol yesterday. The
two physicians are members af the
commission appointed by the governor
to superintend the establishment Of a
sanatorium for eonsumptives, sthe site
for which was recently selected near
Walker, MINI. The purpose of the con-
ference was to secure the views of the
board of control on plans proposed for
the building of the institution
The board of control turned down the
request of the sanatorium commission
to ask the next legislature for an ap-
preparation Of $1500o0 for the purpose
OF building the sanatoriuIn, saying that
$4,000 was the limit to be asked for.
If the commission should ask for a
larger appropriation it was stated that
the board of control would oppose the
feat of the bill
Blames Board of Regents
The explanation offered for this ac-
tion on the part of the board of con-
troll, by the sanatorium commission, is
in the nature of a criticism of the
board of regents of the state university.
That university bunch" as one of the
commissioners designated the regents,
, ao Yl1o ~
volving designs upon $500,000 of the
states money to be secured through the
next legislature and to be used for the
construction of an elaborate new main
building, to replace the one recently
destroyed by fire."
The exact position Of the state board
of control on this question has not yet
been determined. Whether it will op-
pose the request for SO large an ap-
preparation is a matter of conjecture.
If the appropriation is granted, the
other institutions of the state viii have
to content themselves with small pick
ings, for it is conceded that the legisla-
ture will make up for this large appro-
prfatiOn by cutting down the appro-
priations for the other institutions.
Three -Cornered Fight
Rumor has it that the board of re-
gents has received notification from the
board of control that it will not be al
lowed to ask for the -million-dol-
lar appropriation without incurring the
opposition of the latter board, and that
the cause Of this is the favor enjoyed
by other institutions, chief among them
the proposed sanatorium. The present
status of affairs shows that the. re-
gents hold the sanatorium commission
responsible for the opposition. of the
state board of control and that the
sanatorium commission believes the re-
gents to be to blame for the boards ac-
tion on the request of the sanaterium.

still continue in the complainant and have
not been taken away. 1t is claimed that
these contract rights are threatened,
sought to be violated by the city, by pre-
venting their exercise, unless the COM
plainant company shall submit to obliga-
tionS which the company deems burden
some and harsh, and which it claims the
city has no right to impose, in view of it's
obligations heretofore assumed; and it is
claimed that the defendant threatens to
interfere with the exercise of its rights
and franchises unless these demands are
acceded to.
It seems to me the showing made on
the pleadingS in the case confirm this
position of the complainant company, and
without further specification | am inclin-
ed to think that the complainant is en-
titled to the relief demanded and decree
may accordingly be drawn.
The arguments, which had not been
completed Saturday, We're resumed at
10 o'clock yesterday morning. M. D.
Mum, counsel for the street railway
company, devoted more than an hour
in rebuttal He disputed Mr.. Michaels
construction of ordinance 1902 that 1t
related to a system OF overhead wires
for distribution of power over the city,
and contended that it meant the per-
fection Of the company's system Of
lines. He cembatted the citys theory
that the city would lose police power
over it's streets by granting the COM
pany the power it claimed for itself
under the ordinance, and declared his
belief in the constitutionality OF the
legislative enactment of 1883, which he
said was a mere curative act.
Mr.. Michael, for the city, replied
briefly to the points raised by coun-
sci for the street railway corporation,
recited in brief his Saturday argu-
ments and rested his case.
The courts decision in favor of the
street railway company Immediately
followed.

LIFE IN THEIR ART
Mrs. H. c. Burbank ExtoIs Vir-
tues of FIorentine Painters

The series of lectures on italian
Art to be given by Mrs. Henry G..
Burbank, at the Central high school,
was auspiciously begun yesterday aft
ernoon with the initial talk on Flor
entine Painters" The lectures are un-
der the auspices of the Art Workers
guild, and Miss Eleanor. Wheelock, of
that organization, introduced the
speaker with a few words in which she
outlined the course of study and said
incidentally, that men We're not barred
from attending.
Mrs. Burbank gave a sketch of the
early beginnings of Florence and her
art and told of time when the peo-
pie of Tuscany considered the beauti-
flying of a city and the decorating of
the churches and public buildings as
the most important things in life.
She remarked, parenthetically, that
it was an age and a people which
would think nothing of spending
$1,500,000 in making an approach to
one Of it's palaces.
She told of the lives and work of
Cimabue, Giotto, Taddeo Gaddi and
Andrea Orcanga, the earliest famous
painters of Florence OF Giotto she
said that he was the first great seer
in art, the first to get away from stiff
figures, whose heads went one way and
feet another, and for the traditional
blue and gold background he substi.
tuted the more natural background OF
woods and pastoral figures. His ma
donnas were not the wooden, unworld-
ly figures of an earlier age, but were
flesh and blood women, while the Holy
Child he made to look like a real in
fant. Giotto's common sense the speak
er said, pervaded his work, and lent a
touch of reality to pictures which might
lack in technique, but were true in
feeling.
To Cimabue, his great pupil Giotto,
and in turn those who learned of him
as master, the world of art owes the
breaking away from a school of paint
ing entirely controlled by rigid tradi-
ton.
Numerous works of these great mas
ters were thrown upon the screen and
Mrs. Burbank explained their mean
ing and drew a contrast between these
examples of a growing art and some
that had gone before.
A large audience enjoyed the lecture.
The second of the series will be given
on Monday afternoon, Nov. z, and the
topic of the day will be ''The School Of
Sienna"
