PROPOSED new
CONTROL Plan

Grand Forks, N. D., Oct. 25.-Several
changes in the management of the
higher institutions of learning of the
state were advocated by Tracy r.
Bangs in an address before the de-
lpartment of the higher and profession
education of the Educational ~associa-
ton yesterday afternoon. The plan
proposed by Mr.. Bangs provides an in
dependent board for the university
and a similar board for the agricul-
,tural college and would give to the
board supervision over the
of forestry and possibly over
the normal and industrial school at
Glendale. The plan also calls for a
single board to take charge Of all of
the normal schools. The speaker also
declared the school of science at Wah-
peton should be made either a normal
school or should be combined with
the industrial school at Glendale. Mr..
Bangs advocated the reduction of du-
~plication Of the same work to a mini
mum.
Other speakers were: Prof. r. NJ.
Black of Wahpeton, Prof. w. A. Will
,kerson of Wahpeton, r. Hayward.
state high school inspector; DR.. A. J.

clearly that the convention would not

Tart could not, in honor, have accept

Senator LaFollette asserts: ''The
charge of theft against the national
committee for seating Taft delegates
where Roosevelt delegates should have
been seated, came with bad grace from
those who made it." And he quotes an
article by Mr.. Munsey's chief political
writer In support Of his statement that
the Roosevelt contests were made

ceiving the republicans Of the coun

LaFollette goes into Roosevelt's
record on railroads and trusts. claim

MORE FORGED CHECKS
Merchants and SaIcenmen "Stuna' by
Honest Looking Farm Hand Who
Knew Employers Ways.

Identification of strangers paying
bills with checks, despite ali previous
warnings, does not seem to have been
made a rule in some of the business
houses Of Moorhead for q number of
them were made victims of a stranger,
who yesterday, did a lively business in
disbursing checks, ranging in demon
nation from $40 to $25, said to have
been drawn on the First State bank,
notwithstanding the fact that the
farmers whose names were used as
payers were not depositors in that
bank.
The names of the farmers alleged
to have been used by the forger were
Louis Miller and John Smith, both OF
the town Of Holy Cross. and the po-
lice entertain a theory that. the alleged
forger is a man, who has been in the
employ OF Mr.. Miller, or Mr.. Smith.
The victims were merchants and sa-
loon men. The police are working
on a clue, but whether it will lead to
anything remains to be seen. The
names Of those who cashed the bad
paper have not been diyulged.

new ROAD LAID
OUT near FORAAN

Forman, N. D, Oct. 24.-A party of
surveyors for the Minneapolis & st.
Lous Railroad Co. passed through
Forman last week, laying out a sur
vey running north through the Ar
gersinger farm. just east c! town. The
stakes can be seen all along the route.
The surveyors ran out of stakes when
they reached This point and replen-
ished their supply at the local yards
o. the North Star Lumber Co. The
new line will be built from Water
town. S, D., right through to the Ca
na1ish line. 1t does not now appear
that Rutland will be touched by the
new line-which will be something OF
a disappointment to the citizens of
that town. Forman lies in just the
right position to be made a division
point on the proposed line, and it is
believed that the county seat will
eventually become a railroad center.
1t is evident the company means bust
ness-their course being influenced by
a desire to tap the great wheat fields
of this state. The work of construc-
ton will probably m in the
early spring.

spoiled A GOOD STORY

Casselton Reporter: Tuesday MORN
ing's Courier-News contained the
startling news that the DalrympIe
farm was likel to be sold, the purchas-
ers to be a colony of MenonItes from
Pennsylvania, who would move up here
from their eastern holdings and settle
on 100 acre subdivisions. The entire
$4,000 or 10000 acres controlled by the
Dalrymple brothers was to be disposed
of to these people, and the price was
to average about sos an acre. The
News article went o. to praise these
people as being known for their abili-
ty as tillers Of the soil, and entered
into quite an explanation of their re-
ligiop and customs, and wound up with
the statement that Fargo would be af-
forded an immense increase of it's
trade territory by the addition of so
many people, and the land itself would
be even more productive than at pres
ent.
All this was good reading, but when
John Dalrymple, so well known here,
heard of the story he said that ONE
body must have taken the contract to
sell the owners out, as The Courier
News publication was the first he had
ever heard of the deal-and that there
was nothing to it.

GRAY Under
The KNIFE

George M. Gray Of Kennare, chair
maj of the republican state central
committee, succumbed to the surgeons
knife this noon at st. Johns hospital
and his life is now reported to be
hanging in the balance. 1t was de-
cided at a late hour this morning that
an operation was essential and it is IN
derstood that this decision was
none too soon, as his death might have
been the result OF a few hours de-
lay.
The exact cause of Chairman Gray's
illness is not yet definitely known, 9TH
er than ii vas an acute attack of an
abdominal trouble with which he has
suffered for several months past. He
was taken Ill last Monday evening and
was removed the next morning to the
hospital. Wednesday and Thursday
his condition showed no great improve
ment and this morning he was worse.
At first 1t was not thought an opera
ton would be found necessary, but
on consultation of the attending ply
sicians it was decided to apply the
knife. The operation lasted more than
an hour. When The Forum went to
press this afternoon the patient was
not yet fully recovered from the eff
fects OF the anaesthetic, but the
nurses reported he was resting as cas-
lily as could be expected under the
circumstances.
Mrs. Gray, who was sem for Thurs
day morning, arrived in the city from
Kenmare last night and is at her hus-
bands bedside. His many friends
throughout the state will be grieved to
hear of his sudden Illness and opera
ton and will be anxious until they
know he is out of danger.

other group is taking in washing;
some girls are doing general house

were well out of their wheat last night

previous day. 1t was freely remarked
by all traders that there is no dis
to operate extensively at pre-
sent on either side and while sentiment
was largely bearish those who work
that side are not making much head
way. 1t was said by traders that short
interest in December has been cut down
to such proportions that any attempt
on the part of longs to sell will make
a sharp break unless there are sustain

ing and war news. All thai a majority
of traders are looking for at present IS
