IF the graft fight in San Francisco
served no other purpose. it proved of
great educational value both to the
people in whose interest II was waged
and 10 the men who led the move
ment." says Fremont older OF The
San Fransrsco Bulletin in The Survey
True, Abraham Ruef was the only
man indicted who reached the penf-
tertiary, but speaking as one of the
men prominent In bringing about the
exposure, do not regret that more
were not placed In the stripes OF In
fanny. do not regret 1T because I
have ceased to believe that our eco
nomio difficulties are going to be eolv-
ed by sending men to prison. Tha
cure lies deeper. Men are too weak to
Withstand the temptations that lie In
their way. So long as public neces-
sites are controlled by private oor-
poraions there will be civic corrup-
ton.
Even though Ruef deserved to be
pursued as pursued him for more
than eight years, and though he de-
served all the bitter denunctation that
was heaped upon him. felt, when IT

Some OF the critics Of my action
have attempted to answer me by saw

greater Injustice than Ruef. That may
be true. but the fact that I aid not

The Schedule.
All but two dates on the schedule
have been filled and negotiations are
going on at present with several
schools for these dates. These two
dates will be preliminary games in
preparation for the last four games on
the schedule. Coach watkins expects
to have fairly good machine in hand
by the first Of the month.
The schedule is no doubt a surprise
to many Two distinctly new teams
appear upon the list OF games. South
Dakota wesleyan and st. Thomas coll
lege.
OF the two new teams Fargo will get
the better Of the argument as the
eleven that viii be seen on the local
field as a much better athletic record
than the South Dakota aggregation.
The management has sprung a clever
surprise In bringing the st. Thomas
team here and the attendance at the
game when the Catholics are seen on
the local gridiron will be second only
to the big game with tho A. G.
The trip to South Dakota will be the
only away from home contest that the
boys from the little college on the hill
will have. Although the mettle OF the
Wesleyan men is not weak by any
means, yet there has been good judg-
ment shown in selecting this team for
the foreign date.
1t will be seen that Coach watkins
is saving the A. C. game for the last.
He will work his men up to their high
est point Of proficiency before pitting
them against the aggies. 1t win be
the deciding game of the year for the
state championship honors and the
whole schedule has been made with the
thought in view Of making, IL possible.
a victory over the A. c. to wind up the
season In glory,
Only one criticism can be given the
schedule and It win be rectiied The
two open dates do not look good with
the time such a short distance away.
However. the management. expects to
land two good practice games before
the time Of the open dates roll around.
