cefve supervision enough, IL might be
wise to allow the superintendent for
travelling expenses In any enc year
either $40 per school or d sum not ea
ceeding the amount Of the supcrin-
tendent's annual galary.
A third corrective plan is to ask the
next legislature to provide Is cents
mileage by team or auto and 10 cents
for train travel, with the limit above
indicated. With such relief the super
intendents would be able to save much
time while away from the county seat,
and their field work could then be
banded more systematically. This
plan is favored by the superintendents
because OF it's simplicity and certainty
in figuring bills.
At any rate simple fairness demands
that something be done, for the sake
of the country children that greater
efficiency in the county school system
may result and for the county super
intendents that they need no longer
lose money while upon Official field
duty. Mr.. Barnes lives at Wahpeton.
He would welcome suggestions and
information.
The Fargo forum and daily republican. [volume] (Fargo, N.D.) 1894-1957, 1912-09-11

Supt. F. r. Barnes of the Richland
county schools has been investigating
the mileage problem which contronts
the county superintendent almost
daily, with some surprising results
1t is commonly supposed that the su-
perintendent's travelling expenses are
provided for in some equitable way,
either by repayment, as is done by
Wholesale houses to their commercial
travelling men, or by allowing a Ger
tain rate per mile for distance actually
and necessarily travelled in discharge
of duty. The latter method is In tact
adopted but hardly equttably. The
rate paid is 10 cents per mile.
On the face of it this seems album
dant; but the superintendent Tor
years have testified that they cannot
get out whole at that rate unless they
maneuver a very great deal or have
some unusual advantage such as can
hardly be figured in a business trans
action. However, when effort has
heretofore been made in the leglsla-
ture to secure an enactment when
would meet the situation fairly, DEL
mite evidence has probably been too
meager to convince many that a
change actually has been needed. In
fact some legislatures have shown a
disposition to lower the rate to b
cents per mile.
Nevertheless some investigation
leads one to conclude that the present
rate is the u for at least n pop
ular Objectionable custom of all county
superintendent, namely that of
skipping" from place to place in
stead of making a systematic tour of
inspections of the school conditions IN
the various districts. Nc superinten-
dent can profitably inspect a school
before 8 o'clock in the morning nor
after 4 in the afternoon. Thus he has
pretty short hours for field work. At
least one hour is required for anything
like an actual checking up of a school
properly and a discriminating APP
praisal of the professional work being
done by the teacher. Hence one trav-
cling out by team from a nearby town
can make only about twenty-five miles
a day. which at 10 cents per mile
would return $3.50 to him. But livery
rates are just about Is cents per mile,
or $4 or more for a days use ire
spective of miles covered, and 1t is
common knowledge that the average
liveryman is not getting rich at that
rate by any means. The common au-
tomobile rate is Is cents per mile for
one passenger. Auto owners gener-
ally find that, in the curse of five
years or so, there is practically little
in it for them at that rate. If in the
place from which the drive originated

DID POLITICAL CHICANERY
PLAY "A PART TN THE THIRD
PARTY STATE CONVENTIONS

Valley City Times-Record Was
Colonel Roosevelt buncoed?
This is the question being asked i'll
all parts of the state, following the
announcement that DIR. c. C.. Creegan,
Roosevelt's choice for candidate for
governor on the third party state tick
ct and declared the nominee Of the
third state party, is disqualified be-
cause of lack of five years residence
in North Dakota, as provided by the
state constitution. The executive com
mittee of the state central committee,
assisted by Chairman Dorr HI. Carroll
without authority, conferred by the
state convention which met at Fargo
last Friday, have now placed Mayor
Sweet of Fargo in nomination.
The fact that Mayor Sweet was the
unanimous choice of the promoters
and managers of the third state con-
v~ention until the arrival Of Colonel
Roosevelt and il had been planned to
nominate hin as candidate for gov
ernor until Roosevelt requested that
his old friend, DR.. Creegan, be named,
leads to the question:
Was Colonel Roosevelt Buncced?
It is well founded belief that the pro-
meters and managers OF the third
party state convention knew of DR..
Creegan's disqualification long before
Colonel RooSevelt's arrival, knew he
could not legally be a candidate at
the time he was nominated, but sup
pressed all these facts until the colonel
was well out of the state. From re-
liable sources it is learned that DIR.
Creegan was advised of his d~isqualiti-
cation on the night Of his nomination,
or learned of it, and rendered his res
ignation to the state central commit
tee that night. but Colonel Roosevelt
was not yet out of the state and the
matter was kept under cover until he
leader of the national third party was
well on his way to the Pacific coast.
All Saturday night, Sunday, Sunday
night and Monday, attempts were
made to keep the matter of DR.. GREGG
ans qualifications quiet, Ostensibly for
the purpose of preventing Colonel
Roosevelt being communicated with
and interfering with the programme
that had been mapped out by the pro-
motors and managers of the third
party state convention.
Truth Leaked Out.
However, the truth leaked out, MAX
ing it impossible for the illegal action
of the convention to be suppressed
longer, and executive committee of the
third state party, assisted by Dorr H.
Carroll, last night placed Mayor Sweet
on the ticket as candidate for COVER
nor.
Even if the executive committee and
Mr.. Carroll did not know of DR.. GREGG
ans qualifications at the time he was
nominated, the fact that they learned
of his disqualification the same night
the convention adjourned, is regarded
as a breach of good faith on their part
by supporters who were sincere in en-
trusting them with the safe conduct of
the convention.
The strong play of the promoters
and organizers of the third state party
movement has been that they are the
original, simon pure, progressives and
