Mr.. Hill believed in the Northwest at time
when Wall Street was inclined to laugh at his
predictions. and as result of his years of
active work holders of Great Northern Railway
securities have received rich rewards, including
that which will come through the profits
of the companys iron ore properties. These
properties are to be turned over to three trustees
to be held by them for the benefit of holders of
certificates: there is to be no Capitalization of the
trust whatever, nor will there be any operating
holding or other corporation which might be
open TO attack by state and federal authorities.
There probably will be little public trading in
these certificates, especially no par value is
fixed for them and stated dividend rate
promised The profits from the ore lands will
be distributed yearly or oftener as the trustees
may decide. to the holders of the certificates,
and there is every reason to believe that the
great bulk of the certificates will be retained
by the permanent investment holders of Great
Northern stock. Many years ago Mr.. Hill. in
the interest of the Great Northern Railway
Company, added to the assets of that property
enormous amounts OF ore lands and now as a
result OF these wise purchases. shareholders of

Preacher Believes the Social Disorders
Arise from system of Education.

Chicago, Jan. 2.-The present educa-
tional systems were attacked by Rev.
f. A. Paddock, president Of the Idaho
Industrial Institute in an address de-
liyered before the cooperative class at
the First Congregational Church of
Evanston yesterday. The speaker de-
clared the average college graduate il
complete failure when called on to
make his living by manual labor and
the whole educational system tends to
create a feeling Of caste. He urged as
remedy that students be required to
devote at least half of the day to learn
ing trade.
81 believe the social disorders which
are prevalent in this country today
arise from the fact that our system Of
education is all we can get" he said.
1--WE are training one faculty only and
sacrificing the others, The remedy is
to be found in a half-time school where
the student will be kept half day at
his books and taught some trade dur
ing the other half. The half-time
school system would arouse a whole
some feeling Of respect for fellow work.
erS and would tend to break down feel
ing of caste"
