DULUTH SCHOOL BOARD
FAVORs USEFUL PLANS
= Washburn and Other Board
Members Demand Plain, Use-
full Educational Policy.

B The board Of education Of this city
at It's last meeting devoted more than
$an hour to q lively discussion of
higher education =>zs
The educational discussion was
brought about by Superintendent Dem
feld's suggested course Of study for
the industrial high school at West
Duluth. Director ]. L. Washburn
took the leading part In the oratory.
You might as we'll lead calf up
hill to water with the rope around
his tongue, as to conduct children
through the maze of foreign languages
usually comprised in high school
courses" said Mr.. Washburn. "The
futility of teaching these languages
as an aid to a child's practical life
is demonstrated by the high school
graduates themselves. When they
get out Of school they are about as
capable Of speaking French as they
are of talking Hottentot." 4
Mr.. Washburn referred to what he
termed the practical side Of the study
of the English language. = 49, *-''
IT don't want to see those children
in the industrial school manufactured
into literary geniuses," he said. II
want to see them nodded into the
highest type Of practical, every day
American citizens And don't. be-
lieve that incoming over "Ivanhoe,'
or The Lady of the Lake. is going
to have. much of a hand in doing
that" t1 = = -
In the. course of study suggested by
superintendent Denfeld provision is
made for a course in French and
German. History, Sciences English,
bookkeeping and the industrial arts
are also included Among the. scien-
ces zoology is named. Mr. Washburn
took exception to the French. German
and zoology, and urged the introduc-
tion more Of the practical subjects
in their stead. He asked for a, more
practical study Of the ], English
Language, the introduction Of a course
in economies, constitutional history,
penmanship and the kindred subjects
Directors D. p: Stevens and r.. r.
Cobb came to the support of Mr..
Washburn's ideas and Superintendent
Denfeld in an explanation of the pur-
poses Of the course as it was out
lined, said: r~f....s:s75 - :. : ~ =. r
"Education is opportunity. It's aim
is to arouse the mind OF the child

power, and prepare it to act proper

very much what he is studying. II

THE WARNING TO LABOR

The notorious "Colonel' Mulhall,
who is in the pay Of the Van Cleave-
Perry combination, is to be sent into

INDIAN RESERVE LANDS u
DISPOSED BY LOTTERY
Plans Already Adopted for Drawings
For Lands in South Dakota. y

WASHINGTON, August 27.-The
Rosebud Indian reservation lands
which under the proclamation of the
president are to be disposed of by
lotteiy October 10 are located on the
south side of the. state of South Da-
kota and adjotn the lands in Gregory
county, which, we're opened in 1904.
They are said; toy be very desirable
for farming and stock raising pur-
poses, and similar lands in adjoining
counties are selling for good prices.
The plan adopted for this registration
and drawing is similar to that used
in the Gregory opening, but certain
Objectionable features which imposed
hardships on applicants for registra-:
tion have been eliminated. At the
Gregory and former openings, appli-
cants were required to appear in per
son and stand in line. often for a
considerable length of time, until Off
GERS of the government examined
them, while, at this opening no line
will be formed, and the people will
be permitted to send in their appli-
cations by. mail, or otherwise, to the
superintendent, after they have been
sworn to In Dallas, Chamberlain,
Gregory or Presho, S. D., or at O'Neil
or, Valentine, Neb.
Soldiers Arc Favored. -:
Soldiers who served for three
months during the Civil war, the
Spanish-American war or the Philip
pine insurrection, will not be required
to visit the towns mentioned for the
purpose Of registering, but may regis
ter through an agent.
Persons who are successful in the
drawing will be permitted to make
entry Of one quarter section or less,
under the homestead laws, at some
date after March /, 1909, and may
obtain title by making the required
residence and cultivation and the pay
ment of $6 an acre for all lands en-
tered prior to June /, 1909, or $3.50
an acre for lands entered under the
presidents proclamation after that
date. There are no settlements on
any Of these lands, and several town
sites will be located in suitable places
and reserved for homestead. entry, be-
fore March 1, 1909.

Interpretation of New

Two Assessments in. September

Duluth, August 26, 1903.

Duluth, August 26, 1903.
To the Editor of the Labor World:
The contention by the Modern sa-
n,aritans that the socalled payment
in-advance assessment. rule recently
announced is not a double assessment
for September, and does not increase
the members burden, reminds one of
the old problem Of putting twelve men
in eleven beds and only one man in
a bed. ':''s, ' :
The company may be able to prove
their contention by some species Of
word and figure Juggling, but the
members pocket books will feet It just
the same. Under the old rule mem
bers would pay but one assessment
each month Of the year 1908 and all
subsequent years, Under the new rule
the members will pay Just thirteen
assessments in 1908, and twelve: as
sessments for all subsequent years.
That's all there is Of it, and J: no

Thousands Of circulars sent ont to
manufacturers and business men Of
the United States urge the whipping
Of their employees into one grand re-

Each employe is to be taxed one

"None Of my men will parade" he

SISTERS FIGHT AFTER
JUDGE DELAYS CASE
Women HurI InVectiVes at Each Other
and Attempt to Pull Hair and
Scratch Eyes, but Are
Restrained

Not satisfied with airing their do
mestic difficulties in Justice Pierce's
court yesterday afternoon, Mrs. Sam
Aberbuch of 1910, Bartlett street and
her sister, Mrs. Dora Goldstein, car
ried their warfare into the street out
side the court room, where they flew
at each other, threatening to gouge
out each Others eyes and do other
acts of bodily injury.
They were only restrained from en-
gaging in a physical encounter by the
hands of deputy constables, who held
them apart while the two infuriated
women hurled terrible threats and wild
invectives at one another. Finally,
having exhausted their vocabulary in
a vain endeavor to find names suffi-
GENTLY expressing their opinions of
each other, they were released and al
lowed to go home.
Sam Aberbuch brought suit against
his sister-in-law, Mrs. Dora Goldstein,
to collect $50, which he claims is due
him by the defendant for board and
lodging Mrs. Goldstein asserts that
she performed services for the Aber-
buchs which more than offset the bill.
The case was continued until April 20.
1t was while leaving the court room
that the two women began the quarrel
which resulted in the encounter in the
street outside.

Mr.. Nelson knows what he is talk

In examining these turkeys Mr. Mel
