on condition that he should stop Ions

admit, for in sixty minutes she scarce

coLLEcE on THE ROCKS.

George Washington University,

calling loudly for help. President
Needham who was blamed, rightly or

of his college, has resigned; large

BETTER PITCHING EVERY YEAR.

Walter johnson. the pride of the
Washington baseball team. is the first
man in his league to strike out 100
men in the present season. When he
began his game againstD Detroit Thurs
day, he had ninety-four strikeouts ia
his credit, and when Jennings's aggre-
cation retired from the field, scalp
number 100 was hanging from Wal
ter's belt. This record was reached In
fourteen games. against the heaviest
batters of the league. and it is dou-
bly, remarkable in view of the fact
that Johnson has had weak team
supporting him.
The sporting records tell us that
this is TO be great year for baseball
and that we are to have the best play
ing the world has ever seen. Honus
Wagner has fallen down" sadly in
his batting, to be sure, and his field
ing has been very poor, but the other
leaders in both the major leagues are
holding their own. Cobb is batting
at a furious clip, Lajoie is still in the
front rank. and Eddie Collins promises
to give all corners a race for first
honors. In the fielding. all the teams
are excelling their previous records
and in pitching. Johnsons record
merely indicates what most of the
twirlers are doing. In fact, the pro
sress of pitching during the last few
years makes the fine batting of the
leaders all the more wonderful.
Those who recall the early days OF
professional ball and remember the
pitchers of that day are often amazed
as they watch the box artists" OF

KENNEpY's CONCRETE.

If there were people in Fargo who
even mildly suspected that Contractor
Kennedy was not doing honest work
for the ciry-they have had their minds
disabused by an inspection of the con
crete work being uncovered along the
line Of the trunk sewer.
When the contractor laid this con-
crete some years ago he never supposed
that it would be reopened for inspec-
ton. Those who have watched the
progress Of the sewer construction
across Fifth street and to Broadway
and noticed the difficulty the men have
in making dents in that concrete
foundation are satisfied Kennedy gave
the city value received when the paw
ing was laid.
IL requires husky men with sledge
hammers TO drive small wedges into
the stuff and break It into particles,
An inspection OF the other public i'm
provements done by Mr.. Kennedy in
Fargo will show the contracts given
the popular Fargoan have been done
according to specifcations-and that
the city has never been swindled on
any of the jobs.
The condition Of the concrete that is
being broken up Is a sufficient refuta-
ton Of the defamatory articles by Mr..
envious knockers and critics.

TlBERT's REPLY TO REssER.

To The Forum: Kindly permit me
to use portion OF your valuable
space in reply to that wonderful art
icle which appeared in your paper.
Feb. IA, signed by w. c. Resser. The
legal questions involved / will leave
to Atty. A. T. Cole and the other Ie-
gal gentlemen of the city.
l wish, however, to say to my friend
VIM. Resolutions Resser, that I did
not suggest or advocate the laying of
an intake pipe in the bottom of the
river and think it an unwise PROPOSE
ton.
The article referred to appeared in
The News and 1 presume Mr. Resser
can ascertain the name of the writer.
The insinuations made by Resolu-
tons Resser as to my connection with
the present light company are SO alb
solutely senseless and without founda-
ton that they can be placed in the
river with the other pipe dream
Of Resolutions Resser. But to get
down to the late lamented resolutions
calling for special election on Jan.
SS. In said resolutions there appeared
the following clause: "And the city
auditor be and he is hereby directed
to give legal notice Of such special
election by the publication of a GER
titled copy of these resolutions for
twenty days next preceding the day of
such special election as provided by
law"
Now, my dear Mr.. Resser, did you
or did you not know that a special
election called as directed by the above
resolutions would be illegal?
Did you not know that an election
held as directed by the foregoing
resolution would be absolutely void !?
Why then by putting c niger" of
this kind in the resolutions did Won
put the city to the expense OF the
cost of the recently called election?
Did you hope to have the con-
vention held and another case taken
to the supreme court and action on the
water and light question again de-
layed? Or was it ignorance on your
part that made you frame that partic-
ular clause as you did?
In other words, My Dear Resolutions
Resser, are you a rogue or a fool?
This expense incurred by the bonding
up to the present time is
S1252. This includes the expense of
the test case taken to the supreme
court. In the light of the above ex-
pense to which the city has been put

MUNICIPAL LIGHT PLANT.

There are some people in Fargc
welded to the idea Of a municipa
lighting plant. The Forum has never
been an enthusiast in this direction
1t has worked in and out OF season fol
an improved water supply-but has op-
posed the lighting plant for several
reasons.
The present company is giving Fargo
an excellent service and at a reasonable
rate. The service is as good and as
cheap as the city could afford to fur
nish-and the taxpayers are not forced
TO bear the burden Of the construction
and maintenance of the plant and their
light charges, too.
II the strong advocates Of the light
plant will closely examine the law on
the subject they may be less eager
to establish one.
Under the law about all the power
granted is that the city can put In
q plant for lighting it's own streets.
1t seems certain the city cannot sell
electric power-under the present law.
1t In extremely doubtful whether it
can sell electricity to private con-
sumers--even for light. There are law
yors who contend that the courts will
Immediately enjoin the city IL such an
attempt L. made.
The Forum is not certain as to the
legal status Of the matter, but IL does
know the opponents of the lighting
proposition feel certain no plant will
ever be constructed--at least until the
present law Is amended.
