New School Sanitation Plan.

A new idea in school sanitation has

ago he began making bactericlogie ex.

found great periodic variation in the
number OF bacteria colonies that de-
veloped ON the culture media exposed
in the usual shallow open dishes. He
then adopted the plan of disinfecting
with formaldehyde any room showing
more than thirty-five colonies of clus.

Democrats Watching
Vermont Election

Montpelier, Vt, Sept. l The
first important test of political
strength under the unusual con-
ditions prevailing this year will be
made in Vermont Tuesday when
the first state election will be held.
National issues have been present
ed and the effect upon Ghe Repub-
lican and Democratic vote of the
campaign of Col. Roosevelt, who
toured the state last week, will be
watched with int rect.
Vermont has been strongly Re-
publican for half a century, but
the size of the Republican plurali-
ty, with the exception of three
wears, mas been an accurate pa
rometer of tie political sentiment
of the nation. Whenever the Re-
publican plurality has fallen be
low $4,000 Democratic President
has been elected in November.
This year the entry of the Pro-
gressives has complicated the stu
alton.
There are five gubernatorial
candidates, Col. Allen NJ. Fetch
er, Republican; Harlan B. Howe,
Democrat: the Rev. Frazer Metz
ger, Progressive; Clement +.
Smith, Prohibitionist, and Fred
W. Suffer, Socialist.
LEGISLATURE MAY ELECT.
One element of interest entering
into the election is the possibility
that the Legislature may have to
determine who will be the next
governor. In Vermont anything
less than a majority throws the
election of state officers into the
Legislature.
Chairman l.. G. Williams of the
Republican state committee pre-
dicted tonight the election of
Allen NJ. Fletcher. saving the
Legislature will not have to choose
governor.
E. w. Gibson one of the Pro
oressive leaders, said:
"The total vote will be slightly
over $4,000. The Democratic vote
will be from $4,000 to 10000 and
the Progressive vote about Is, 900.
There will be no election by the
people. The Legislature, controll-
ed by Democrats and Progressives.
will elect a governor and it is safe
to say he will not be Republican. I"
81 hope to be in a position to-
morrow to make some sort of an
estimate" said Chairman Z. S.
Harris of the Democratic state
committee, ''but ! dislike TO give
out figures until | have something
upon which to base them."

SPORTING NEWS
DECLARE FOR
| REAL BASEBALL
Btiness Men and Magnates
Look into the Situa-
] ton Thoroughly.

The silver lining to the baseball
clud which has hung over Grand
Frks for some little time was expos
e last night and today there is much
saying n repoicing in town.
Prospects certainly look good for
fand Forks and Fargo to have plac-
In the Central-International league.
The whole situation was brought to
head at a meeting of baseball
,'oosters at the Commercial club last
light at which James Dinnie acted as
chairman. Taking a leading part in
this meeting were President Blume of
Duluth. Vice President Scoon of SUI
perior, n President Blackburn of
Winnipeg, whose visit to Grand Forks
In the interests of the new league re-
ally got the wheels to turning at a
lively rate.
At this meeting a committee con-
sisting of Leslie Stinson. W. II. Kelsey.
Henry o'keefe. Jr.. Thomas c. Griff-
it'll and James Dinnie was named to
interview the business men of the
town upon the proposition of placing
a team In the league this morning and
instructed to report at another con-
ference of boosters late this after
noon. The work of this committee
will be to find out just where the BUSH
ness men stand in the matter and
what they will do towards supporting
organized baseball here.
Fargo was to have had a represent
ative at the meeting last night, but
the man delegated to look after the
interests of that town found it irnpos-
sible to be here. However, word came
over the telephone from prominent
gate city business men while the
boosters were in session that Fargo
could be depended on to have a club
went into the circuit and that the
deal would be handled there by the
business men.
The whole. situation was gone into
thoroughly last night by local men as
well as by the visitors M it was the
controlling sentiment that the time is
ripe for organized ball in his section
and that Fargo and Grand Forks have
the opportunity of a lige time to get
into a league that is bound to develop
INTO a winning proposition, with
Minneapolis and St. Paul owning
franchises a year from now.
Leading elements in the affairs of
the street car company were present
wit hthe gratifying information that
end of building q new baseball park.
That the Grand Forks club be a
home institution was the desire ex-
pressed by every booster who talked
upon the subject last night and the
proposition will undoubtedly work out
this way The idea that an outsider
own the Grand Forks franchise and
reap all the benefits that will event
ually accru through the establish
ment Of the league did not appeal to
the men who are willing to see the
proposition through. Lets have a
team n have it ourselves" is the
cry Of. the boosters who are today
humping their backs to lift Grand
Forks into the band wagon that is
headed in the straight path for the
best little baseball proposition that has
ever bobbed up in this section.
