aging the city's affairs. We do not
desire to blame or censure the above
officers for getting all the increase they
can squeeze out of the office, but we
do condemn the ones whom the people
have entrusted with the running OF
the city, that such a state OF affairs
should exist.
There is not a resident Of Mandan
today who will object to paying
legitimate tax on his property, pro-
vided the moneys thus collected are
used for the improvement and beau
tifying the city, but when salaries
are increased from $40 to $50 a month
in some instances and in some other
cases SO and $15 a month have been
added, it is high time to begin to call
a halt.
We are told that the reason. for in
creasing the taxes of Mandan is to
add to the value of our financial
standing with the outside world, that
we may some time In the future, float
a bond issue for some needed improve
ments. Would it not be far better to
use the moneys we are raising under
high taxes to make these needed i'm
provements, instead of using it in en-
ploying high salaried officers?

PRES. MERRIFIELD
GUEST OF HONOR
FACULTY or STATE UNIVERSITY
BANQUET PRESIDENT AND
WIFE-soTH RECIPIENTS
OF GIFTS.

Grand Forks. N. D., May 19.-The
faculty of the university gave a dinner
last evening at Davis hall to President
and Mrs. Merriheld. The occasion
was the presentation to the retiring
president Of a handsome pair of field
glasses, and to Mrs. Merrifield of a
beautiful silver server on which is en-
graved the university SEAL President
Merrifield's work. and more than that,
his high character and his uncomprom-
ising devotion TO ideals, have given
him a place in the hearts of the faculty
which is rather that of an intimate
personal friend than simply an admin
istrative superior. In presenting these
gifts they have endeavored to convey
to him and to Mrs. Merrifield, as the
presidents good wife and loyal asso-
ciate, their heartfelt friendship.
The company gathered in the parlor
of Davis hall at 1880 and proceeded
almost Immediately afterwards to the
dining room. Here an excellent din
ner was served and at its close, Dean
Thomas very fittingly expressed to
President Merrifeld the feelings ami
mated every member Of the faculty
feelings OF love and deep personal de-
votion. He said that they had wished
to leave with the president something
which should serve to remind him of
that affection. He introduced Dean
Babcock who, in a brief speech, but
one rarely felicitous in It's interpreta-
tion of those ties that have bound
President Merrifleld and his co-work-
ers together, presented to him the gift
OF the faculty men. President Merri-
field expressed his appreciation.
Dean Thomas then called upon Mrs
Thomas who presented to Mrs. Merri
field the gift of the faculty women
Mrs, Thomas is always extremely hap
py in her expression of very subtle
feelings, and she has rarely been more
happy than in the delightful little
speech In which she voiced those feel
ings Of respect and admiration with
which the members of the faculty, and
especially the faculty women, regard
the wife Of the president. Her tact.
kindliness. and unfailing sweetness
and helpfulness have given her an
abiding place in their hearts. Mrs.
Merrifield was deeply touched by Mrs
Thomas tribute. She graciously ac-
cepted the gift
When the gifts had been presented.
the guests Joined hands and sang
Auld Lang Syne, feeling, perhaps,
more than they have ever felt before,
the force of that friendship which has
linked them in loyal cooperation to
the head of the university.

DOG ATTACKED CHILD.
Little One Nearly Killed Before Res
cue Is Affected,

Fairmont, N. D., May 10. - Little
Malinda, the 2-year- old child of Mr..
and Mrs. Adolph Kuhl, nearly lost
her life by the vicious attack Of a
dog. The child, as usual, was playing
with the brute when all at once. with
out warning the dog, which is large
and powerful one, grabbed the child
IN the face, biting her several times
Her face was terribly lacerated, and
II the parents had not been on the
spot the child would have been lit
orally chewed I'D. The child was
brought to town and the doctor sewed
up three gashes, while a number of
smaller scars upon the child's face
gave evidence that the dog was an
ugly customer. If no complications
set in the girl will get gell, but will
carry the marks Of the brute's teeth
upon her face as long as she lives.
The dog will be killed, but was tied up
for few days to see whether it would
develop rabies.

Anamoose, N. D., May 19.-Guy ABB
elein,, the youngest son of Postmaster
Abelein, met with. serious accident
and as a result OF same now lies
at his home with a broken leg.
Guy, his brother r. G., Merle Root
and Robert Farrar were on a load of
refuse, which they were hauling to
the dumping grounds about mile
west, up the 500 tracks. The acci-
dent happened after they had crossed
the tracks and we're nearing the
dumping grounds, when the horses
SHE'D at something along the road and
started to run. r. G.. Abelein, who
was driving, tried his best to pull
them up, and when he found that he
was unable to do so, he sprang from
the load to the side of the road still
holding onto the reins, and was drag
ged quite distance before he was
finally obliged to let go. In the mean
time Farrar and Root succeeded in
jumping from the wagon and escaped
with few scratches, but Guy, who
also made the attempt, was caught In
the heel and the wagon passed over
his right leg above the knee.

COMMISSION Plan
PROVES EXPENSIVE
MANDAN PAYS MORE SALARIES
TO THE MEMBERS OF THE CON-
MISSION THAN TO THE. MAYOR
AND ALDERMEN, ACCORDING
TO A MANDAN EDITOR.

Mandan Republican: In last weeks
issues the other newspapers in Man
dan attempt to deal solar plexus
blow because of our stand on the tax
situation in this city. We recovered,
however, before we were counted down
and out and beng still in The ring
feel that in order to retain our repu-
tation for fairness to our people we
must give few figures to show why
we are taxed as we are and what is
being done with the money which we
pay for Improvement and running the
city of Mandan.
In the month of April, 1907, under the
alderman system of government, the
cost of running the city for that month
was $55S,48. The month of April 1909,
under the commission system of gov
ernment, cost the city of Mandan
$967.1S. This doesn't look so large,
for one month, but when one stops to
figure what this viii mean to the tax
payers of this city in one year, it is
worth more than a passing thought,
Let us consider the difference of run
ming the city under the two systems il
$40S.70 a month, or $4904.40 a year
Some Of the expounders Of the system
may tell you that this much more is
being expended in improving and
beautifying the city. This is not so
In 1907 $4912 was spent for street
labor and incidentals for that depart
ment; in 1909 $57 was spent in the
same way.
To point out where the greatest in
crease comes in we must refer to the
advancement in the salaries Of the
city officials. Under the alderman
system all officers Of the city of Man
dan drew combined salary of $212
while under the commission system
the same officers draw $437, making
d difference of $225 a month for man

Ryder people have taken an interest
in the important question OF how 1T
