1t is being reported on good au-
thority that G. H. Jones, editor of
the Teachers Monthly at Salem, and
manager Of teachers employment
agency, made the statement Wednes-
day that there would be new men
employed in place of City Supt. J. M.
Powers, w. f. Fargo, who is sci
ence teacher, and Geo. l.. Schneider,
teacher Of drawing and industrial art
at the meeting Of the school board
Saturday night. A man has been
brought to Salem by an authorized
announcement that the Office of City
supt. Powers would be vacated al
though he Is under a contract with
the board for a year from next July.
This applicant wrote a letter saying
he understood the place would be
vacant.
Charge Against Fargo.
There are no charges against any
Of these teachers affecting their abil-
ity, the performance of their duties
or their moral conduct But for var
ious reasons they have incurred the
ill-will of the dominant majority Of
the board-Messrs. Lafky, Millard
and Holt. These are the men who
created the special teachers commit
tee to have complete control of the
employment Of all teachers and jani-
tors, taking all authority away from
the city superintendent and the min
ority of the board. Prof, Fargo and
Mr.. Schreiber have been very loyal
to Supt, Powers and this is consid-
cred their principal offense. Fargo
was instrumental in calling a meet
ing of all the grade teachers to en-
dorse Powers at the time there was
rumor Of his resignation. The
grade teachers and principals with
the exception of Principal Kirk of
the high school, signed a set of reso-
lutions very complimentary to City
Superintendent Powers, and Mr.. Far
so tried to get the action Of the
teachers before the board to have IT
made a matter of record. But this
was refused.
Fargo Was Threatened.
One of the "Big Three" on the
