WOULD commence TO
BUILD This Year

MlNOT. N. D.. Jan. 6-That the
normal school fight may be settled in
time to make the construction OF the
school in 1912 a possibility, is the OBJ
ject which a committee of ave Minot
bankers will attempt to bring about.
That committee was appointed by
President A. M. Thompson of the
Minot Commercial club, in accordance
with the action of that club taken
at a recent meeting.
81 believe that ninety-five per cent
of the people of Minot are anxious
to have the normal school fight set
tied at once. We want to be in posi-.
ton to open the school to the people
of the state next fall, and in view of
the almost unanimously expressed de.
sire for the immediate establishment
of the school at the last election the
city of Minot owes it to the state that
such object be accomplished"
The most important feature of the
fight which is to be settled is that OF
the site, and the committee will seek
to conciliate the interested parties.
On the committee are Grant S. You
mans, R. L. Barron. H H. Kem2er, f.
S. Persons. and NJ. H. Porter.

1HEVING SHOULD
mot Be TOLERATED

One of the old timers of this city
in commenting on the article which
appeared in the Tribune several days
since about the numerous thefts oc'
curing along the up river line, re-
marked, Those little acts are petty,
to what that settlement will do.
Why, several years ago, some one.
who started to improve his farm
built for one thing a wire fence. Be-
fore the winter was past, the pesky
people around there. were so mean
as to steal the wire from the posts
and then after that to pull the
posts"
And" he continued, those are the
people who have wanted a railroad
to run into that section. No sooner
does it run there than they begin to
make all kinds of trouble for the
read by carrying away the material
and everything they can put their
hands on. A good dose of the law is
the only thing that will set them
right and I hope the road will give
it to them"

Enthusiastically boosting for the pro1o.
sition. The county commissioners II
Clay and Becker counties have united
on the matter and at a conference
held yesterday afternoon it was de-
cided that the boards of the two coun-
ties jointly petition the state rural
highway commission to change the
road, so that instead of running due
east from Hawley. MINI, the road
will turn south on the county road
running to Rollag, and thence east to
Cormorant village and north and east
through Detroit. to Duluth. The com.
missioners of both Clay and Becker
counties have voted to pay their one
third share of the expense of con-
struction.
Should the state highway commits
s:oner accede to the petitions of the
two counties, western Minnesota vii!

Highway Commissioner George W.
Cooley. the road can be constructed

$51 300 for the twenty-six miles. this
to include all grading graveling twelve
inches deep and two bridges.

right then to left. when at one sharp
turn the car turned completely over,
pinning the doctor beneath the
wrecked car. One arm was turned
under in such a manner that he could
not move, the bows of the top press
ing on his head so that he was un'
able to turn his head in either dlrec.

For three quarters of an hour the
man lay in that position before being
found by a passing farmer, who OBJ
tanned help and released him. The
doctor was fortunate to escape with
only slightly bruised head and
badly scratched hand.

visit to London he was surprised
that there was no statue here to Lue
man who was responsible in large
measure for the addiuon of he anti.
podeen territories to the British EN-.

the oversight and the agitation result
ed in the appointment Of committee
with Postmaster General Samuel as
it's head. to provide suitable memoir
ial. King George ". at that time
Prince of Wales, accepted the presi-
dency of the society for the erection
0. the statue and although his eleva-
ton to the throne has caused him
to withdraw from Office in it he con-
tinues to give the movement his heart
lest support.
The srnmenu Offered its aid
through the medium of the board OF
Works, which provided an admirable
site for the statue on the Mail side
of the new Admiralty Arch. The de-
sign and execution of the statue,
which will be unveiled some time next
year. has been entrusted to Sir Thorn
as Brock.

THOM GIVES STATEMENT
OF SCHOOL PUPILS FUND
President of Associated Charities

Was Misused

Corcoran Thorn, president of the AS
ISOLATED Charities, has submitted an
itemized statement Of the receipts and
disbursements of the money contributed
by public school pupils at Thanksgiving,
1910 TO buy shoes and clothing for poor
children, in refutation of the assertion
made before the board of education Wed
nesday that most of the money had been
spent for salaries and administration.
All of the $3.097.25 donated by the chill
dren has not been spent. according to Mr..
Thorn, and is being distributed as were
similar funds in past years. The follow
ing itemized statement. he said, shows
how unfounded was the claim made be-
fore the board of education:

Mr.. Thorn explained that this fund Is
kept entirely separate from other FUNDS,
and that practically every cent Of 1t is
used to benefit poor school children in
some way.
That she will press her request. held up
by the board, that the Prudence Crandall
Society be allowed to collect more small,
donations from school children to buy
shoes and clothing for poor pupils, was
the statement yesterday Of Mrs. Caroline
Harris, member Of the board Of edu-
cation. Mrs. Harris said many colored
children In the city are unable to 60 to
school because they are not properly
clothed. Many are too proud to go to the
