No definite decision in regard to a
course of action toward J. Wesley Reed,
the Hammond contractor had appar-
emily been reached by the plasterers
this morning a number of plasterers
standing at the four corners in Ham
mond this morning said that at meet
ing last Saturday night it had been de-
cided that the plaster work in the
Lock-Mar flats, for which Reed has the
general contract. should be resumed
this morning. Reed has sublet the
plaster job. The work, however, was
not resumed this morning. according
to agreement, for the reason it was
explained by some of the pIasterers
that the walls were in no shape to work
successfully.
J. Meyer. the business agent for the
plasterers, who was in the group of
plasterers. refused to say what course
had been decided on as far as Mr.. Reed
was directly concerned. A strike is on
against Reed directly. for the reason
that Reed's s residence on the Ridge road
had been wired by Fred Newell Mey-
er said that an effort would be made to
bring about a meeting of the various
building crafts for next Thursday, at
which further discussion of the situa-
tion is to be had.
Mr.. Reed said this morning that he
would not permit the plasterers' strike
to interfere with his building very long
He said that he was trying to avoid
trouble, and his relation with the un-
ions in the past had been satisfactory
He said that he had made arrangements
to put non-union plasterers to work to-
morrow morning if hv that time the un-
ion plasterers were still out.

evidence to be used against these men

Educational institution Heads Meet.

Fargo COurier-News: The
conference Of the heads of edu-
cational institutions and repre-
sentatives of boards and trus.
tees, held at the Masonic Ora nd
Lodge library in Fargo on
Wednesday afternoon, issued
the following statement. in
which the work of the meeting
is practically embodied:
1.-The conference ot today
was an adjournment of the one
held early in December at
Valley City. The general feel
ing of the conference was that
it's attitude on the matter Of
the board of control has been
misunderstood. The confer
enCe in no sense attempted to
pass upon the advisability of a
general board for penal and
charitable institutions, but did
reiterate it's belief in the un-
wisdom of such a board for the
educational institutions Of the
state because in the matter Of
government there would he no
economy in the board of con-
troll methods over the trustee
system now in vogue in the
state as shown by the exper-
ienCe of other commonwealths.
Still further it was telt that a
dead level of efficiency and
individuality of institutional
growth was sure to follow the
establishment of board of
control regime for educational
institutions. ~..
The problem too, of many
institutions cannot be com
passed and clearly considered
by single board even though
paid one. The experiences
also of other states where the
board of control for educational
institutions has been tried have
not given the results expected
over the system now in vogue
in this state. On the contrary,
they have been positive dam
age to the institutions, holdin g
and checking their growth as
shown in the history of South
; Dakota, Montana and even OF
Iowa.
In our neighboring state,
/ Minnesota, the educational in
stitutions were removed from
! the jurisdiction of general
board of control after four years

As solution for the Condi
tions existing in the Minnesota
terminals the commissioners
recommend the establishment
of state warehouses, contend
ing that by 80 doing the people
could save to THE nselves ap-
proximately %, 85O.NO annual
lily, now lost to them through
the dockage and failure to re-
ceive a premium price that the
eastern nillers would be glad
to pay for North Dakota grains.
A saving Of $75V,Oo0 annually
in E q commissions is another
argument used in favor of the
state warehouse, 7 making a
total Of s., 800, 0OO annually.
This does not take into con-
sideration the loss the farmer
sustains at the local end of the
business, but only the termin-
ais, or, selling end. For the
last five years the state has
shipped an average, of 60; ;W0,-
600 bushels of wheat annually
and $4,000, O0O bushels of flax,
which t';212 cents bushel
profit al" the local elevators
would amount to $1.S25, 600
each year. In addition to this
must be taken into account
the underweight, overdockage
and undergrading done by
many local elevators, of which
the farmers grievously COM
plain. The total loss at the
local end from these sources is
estimated at 81, 100000.

growers have sustained in each

handling their, grain in about

Anathar-reason advanced for
this system is the fact that
farmers could store their grain
at the terminal at actual cost,
receiving state storage certf.
ticate which he could use as
security for loans at very rea-
sonable rates of interest. In
terest as low as 6 per cent could
he secured. and as high as 80
per cent will be advanced upon
state terminal warehouse re-
ceipts. - s.sss1 ~t. '
A continuation of the grain
commissioners plan is { dvocat-
ed and they recommend that
one commissioner be located at
Minneapolis and the other at
Duluth and the expense of
maintaining an office at each
place be provided for by the
state. '-@ 4e'. #
