What Is Most Needed.
"The state commission will make a
complete selection Of text books for
adoption for a period of six years.
said Miss Chamberlain.
This does not necessarily mean
made, for wherever the present texts
are found in favor among the teach
ers and up -to-date they will be re-
tanned. What we want is the very
best that can be placed in the hands
nf the teachers In the way of equip
ment for successful school york 1t
has now been eight years since the
present series was adopted and much
has been made in that time.
What is most needed is to see that
the books are selected with, the idea
of logical DEVELOPMENT of the subjects
taught. Our books now are charac-
terized rather by lack of system than
anything else"
Commission Meets at Boise.
The first meeting of the commits
when rules and regulations governing
the selection will be adopted and the
board organized for the work June
Is fixed by the law as the date for the
beginning of the real work: but as 1t

ment dates in several schools, it is
likely 70 be postponed.
Following the selection of the text
books Miss Chamberlain will prepare

graded course of study for the schools.
An ATTEMPT will be made to have all
this in readiness by the first of Sep

Case Of Progressive
ParanOia

into the present state of mind of
Thaw, allowed DIR. Allan McLane
Hamilton to testify as to what he
knows of Thaw's mental condition.
This action was taken over contin-
ued protests of the defendants at
torneys.
DR.. Hamilton declared it is his opin-
ion that Thaw is suffering from
progressive form of paranoia, and de-
clared that Thaw is unable to realize
the nature Of the charges against him.
Many attaches of the Tombs testi-
fed today they had never seen Thaw
do anything irrational.

OFFICERS OF UNION
RAILWAY ARE
BUSY
Stockholders Have Been in
Minneapolis in Conference
With 500 and G. N.

The farmers railroad in the north
ern part of the state has aroused con-
siderable interest in railroad activity
in that section and it begins to look
as though the new Union Railway
company will be certainty. The first
of the week three prominent residents
of Langdon and vicinity passed trough
the city enroute to Minneapolis, where
they had a conference with the head
officials of the Great Northern and
of the 500 roads. This delegation
consisted of w. L. Drury, president o.
the company; Robert Morse, vice
president, and F. Winterer. vice-presi-
dent of the First National bank of
Langdon, one of the heavy stock
holders.
Ostensibly the new line is being
built to give the northeastern part of
Cavalier county railway facilities but
the theory has been evolved that
either the 500 or the Great Northern
will make connections. Another con-
templated road, that is being pushed
by Thomas Campbell of this city, ex-
tending from the Pembina Portland
SCAlOIG llEluc ucdl ~S1ClfSduS SOuIu.
ward to Edinburg. has been seeking
a connection with the Union road but
the officers of the latter organization
has declined all overtures and there
is a likelihood of two separate farm
ers' lines.
In the reports of junction with
Great Northern and the 500, it is
significant that the Canadian Pacific
has branch extending toward the
point from which the Union railway
is expected to start and that the d.
rection of the new survey will be
toward the Soo's Kenmare line. which
would give the 500. when connection
is completed another outlet to the
Canadian Pacific. The promoters of
the Union railway line will be of great
benefit to farmers who now haul grain
20 to rs miles to Langdon for ship
ment. Olga will be near the right
of way of the new road and Stillwell
will be station. A genuine farmers
line and the profits of operation will
accrue to their benefit.

NOT MARKED BY STUDENTS
President Mortified Has Something
to Say lAnent State Examina.
ton Papers.

Grafton Record: Apropos of the
coming state examinations, President
Merrifieli has submitted the following
communication: "The impression
seems to be quite general among high
school principals that the written ex-
animation papers are read by students
of the university. l wish to say that
this is in no sense the case. 1 do
not recall single instance in the
last six or eight years where a paper
has been read by an undergraduate
university student. Almost without
exception these papers are read by
superintendent of first-class high
schools, in some cases by teachers Of
f1rst-class high schools. but in all
cases, believe, only by superintend-
ents or teachers who are college grad
yates and have had long experience
In teaching. Under the law readers
may not be appointed from persons
receiving salaries as teachers in State
institutions. I shall welcome any sug-
gestiOnS as to better way to get
these papers read"
This is very open and frank put
ting of the matter which ought to
allay any uneasiness concerning the
question as to who does the reading
of these papers; and now if we could
arrange some way to insure each
readers really reading. studying and
judging each paper submitted, we
should seemingly have the treatment
of the state papers very satisfactorily
fixed.
