THE HERALD LIE IS.
NAILED AND
CL|NCHED
Malicious Falsehood Concern
ing Schools is Properly
Branded.

There was indignation galore in the
city this morning when the Grand
Forks Herald was received. The east
side reporter had, it seems. fallen into
his natural habit again and had made
some statements in reference to the
imaginary trouble 81 concerning the
school play which has aroused the
indignation Of the. public. The truth
of the matter as gathered by the Times
is about as follows: The teacher Of
the Eighth grade submitted to Snper-
intendent Burnett list Of names Of
the pupils she, desired to have pro-
NOTED. The list contained the names
of those entitled to promotion and re-
ceived the proper marks. Superintend-
emit Burnett refused to allow the pro-
motion of those not entitled to the
same. Then the pupils of the grade
who were taking part in the class play
submitted written statement that
they would not put on the play unless
Mr.. Burnett would sign uncondition-
ally the certificates of promotion. He
still declined to change his position
on the matter and laid the matter be-
fore the board Of education. That
body emphatically sustained the sup
serintendent and endorsed his position.
This morning Prof Burnett called
up the Herald by phone and stated to
1t that the story was false and insisted
upon retraction. and that sheet
agreed to publish the facts in the mat
ter. 40 that those who were lead to
