 Del was cheered up considerably by the news for broken ankle would have kept his brother out of the game prac- tically all season, while sprained ankle will only keep him out a couple of months at the outside.

AS to the change in the presidency.
This is explained in few words, per-
haps none more fitting than these-gub-
ernatorial revenge.
It became necessary for me to demand
the removal Of Mr.. Chilcott, and he hap
pened to be able to secure the protection

the governor of the state. When his
excellency made enough appointments to
control the board, his appointees speed

Chilcott. @
For some reason, after having the
letters printed, he did not give them
general circulation, only sending out a
few copies to personal friends and for
mer students Of the college.

rangements for printing large mum.

sity at Vermillion; the transfer of DIR.
Chalmers, president of the Agricultural
college, to president Of the univ ersity
at Vermillion. a few days ago the
public was very much surprised to learn
that the regents had been investigating
charges against DR.. Chalmers, and de-
cided that they were of such q nature
that they could not retain him, and
hence asked for his resignation.
No charges or complaints were ever
made against the president of the Aber-
deem Normal school, nor have the re-
gents ever given any reason for his
removal. The charges which had been
made against DR.. Droppers had been
fully investigated by the board OF re
gents and the doctor fully exonerated.
There is an important part of the
history of this transaction that has
never yet been published. DR.. j. w.
Heston was for many years. president
of the Brookings college. He was re-
moved about two and half years ago
and DR.. Chalmers appointed in his place.
DR.. Heston and his friends have always
claimed that he was unlustly used and
was removed for political reasons. In
May, 1904, he had printed a large num-

addressed to one of his former students.

In this letter ha4 gave the inside story
of the college troubles from his stand
point. He said the school was badly
demoralized when he took hold and a
disgrace to the state. The attendance
was run down and public confidence
destroyed. The faculty was made up
of two hostile camps. He sought to
work some better condition out and
was Just getting things in better shape
when the new state administration came
in and the cold political machineo In
the faculty was reorganlzed. Since
then, he declared, the machine had been
in full control Of the institution, ma
nipulating the board of regents. The
letter then says:
Regents Ignored President.
Your idea that I might have secured
changes in the faculty is all wrong. The
present board Of regents never paid any
attention to my recommendations about
employees. Men were elected and given
prominent places in the faculty whose
existence I did not know until they
walked into my office and informed me
they were given a position by the re-
gents. In some cases no such employees
were needed at all, and In other in
stances those chosen by the board were
utterly unfit and unworthy. I protested
yes, and insisted that 1t was my right
and duty to nominate all candidates fol
positions in the faculty, but my pro-
tests We're swept aside and I was acA

just prior to the converting Of the
session Of legislature he prepared a for
NAL petition and charges upon which he
intended to demand full Investigation
Of the institution and the reason for
his removal.
DR.. Heston with his attorney went to
Pierre early in the session of the legis-
lature for the purpose of pressing the
matter. He laid all Of his charges be-
fore Governor Elrod and a few mem
bers Of the legislature. A short time
thereafter the board of regents made
the changes in the public institutions
and appointed DR.. Heston as president
Of the normal school at Madison, and
nothing further was heard Of the
