PROPOSED PLAN
scandinavian Ministerial Union Would
Have Language Taught in the
High School.

The Grand Forks Lutheran Minis
ter's union met in regular session at
the home Of Rev. A. j. TIulteng last
night, at which time the members
continued their discussion relative to
introducing Scandinavian languages
into the high school curriculum. This
discussion was commenced at the last
meeting OF the union and concluded
last. night. after which it was decided
to invite other Scandinavian organic
ations in the city to cooperate with
the union in bringing this about. The
plan is to make the teaching Of Scan
.dinavian languages elective. ::
1t was also decided that the union
take steps to conduct a Lutheran
lecture course during the year. 1t is
planned to bring a number of prom.
inent Lutheran lecturers to Grand
Forks during the winter. Plans for
this lecture course will be definitely
arranged within q short time.
Tho following were present at last
nights meeting: a. J. Hulteng, J. NJ.
Persenius. Fl. j. Glenn. G. O. Mona,
j. n. Lentz and L. A. Haatvedt. .

delivery Of an ultimatum. At Leeds
the men recommended that the find
inSs he rejected and that a national
conference be held for the consider
alton of Il program for all railways.
AT Glasgow dissatisfaction was en-
pressed with the report and a general
strike was advocated. 1t is quite evil
dent that among organized railway
employees the findings of the commits
sion ave anything but satisfac Glory. for
the report does not give them what
they wanted and the opposition to
ii is already growing formidable.
1t is freely admitted that the new
scEc3lc for the settlement Of disputes
leaves much to be desired, but it is Il
distinct advance on that of 1907 and
the public. which had Il taste Of what
a senera strike means is hoping that
the railways and their men will accept
its tcrvls until something better can
be arranged. 1t is pointed u that it
is only destined to serve for Il period
OF two years. at the end of which time
it will be subject to revision or utter
rejection.
y particularly alarming feature Of
the threats of the unionist leaders is
their expressed determination in case
of Il strike to invoke the aid Of tho
miner
In this connection j. II. Thomas. a
labor member of the House of Com
mons said: "Tf the ~railwaynlcn Of this
country and the miners combine. as
suggested. it will not only he i; strike
but a revolution. AT the present time
the feeling. temper and desire Of the
mass of railwaynen is to tlkc extreme
action. The country has tasted what
Il national stoppasc means, hut If
there is Il strike ut Christmas time it
will he impossible to anticipate the
consequences"

sources. it is believed that G. Jones
Rixey, former president and treasurer

DR. WILEY To HOLD
HIS POSITION.
President Justifies Pure Food Expert
and Recommends Retention of
DR.. Rusby.

Beverly, Mass, Sept. 14.-Dr. Har-
rey W. Wiley, government chemist
and champion OF the people against the
food adulterators, will hold his job.
Some others in the Department of
Agriculture may not.
This was made known today in de-
cision by President Taft in the eleventh
hour of his stay in Beverly and just pre-
vious to bis start on his six weeks tour
of the west The action of the presi-
dent fulfills promise made when he
left Washington to settle the famous
case which has already extended over
several months before leaving Beverly.
In his decision Which is in the form
OF letter to Secretary of Agriculture
Wilson, the President declares that DR..
Wiley was justified in all that he did
in the matter of the employment OF
DR.. II. II. Rusby as an expert chemist;
that he was no party to the correspond
ence involved in the case; that DR..
Wiley acted 10 accordance With numer-
Gus precedents, and that he cannot but
command the sympathy of everyone
for his earnest effort to maintain the
pure food law.
The President also recommends the
retention of DR.. H. H. Rusby in the
government service and rules adversely
TO the decision of the personnel board
of thefdepartnaent which advised that
besides DR.. Wiley, chief of the Bureau
OF Chemistry, DR.. L. F. Keller, chief
of the drug laboratory. of the bureau,
be allowed to resign
The president recommends that DR..
Kebler be reprimanded for what he de-
clares was disngenuous conduct" as
shown by letters he wrote in connection
with the employment of DR.. Rusby
also that DR.. W. D. Bigelow be repri-
manded.
President Taft intimates plainly that
much more radical action may be ex.
pected when be takes up the very
much broader question involved in; the
investigation OF the bureau OF chem
istry by congressional committee. .
He asserts that he made up his miud in
the case Of DR.. Wiley weeks ago, but
withheld the announcement OF his de.
cision pending the result OF the inves-
tigation in Congress.
