BOTH SIDES PLEAD
FOR ANOTHER TRIAL
Weist as Well as Albert and Others,
Give Reasons Why First One Does
Not Suit.

The finish of the now noted case
Of W. A. West, the deposed professor
of the Englewood school, VS.. j. H. All.
bert ct al, has not appeared on the
legal horizon yet, and, in all probabil-
ity, will not until some time to come,
as both plaintiff and the defendants
today filed motions for new trials, and
the setting aside Of the verdict in
which West was given damages against
W. II. Trindle and Mrs. Blanche Ford.

With the defendants threatening to
appeal to the supreme court in the
event Judge Kelly overrules their pres.
ent motion, and the plaintiff deter.
mined to wipe the record Of the school
board clean Of ali charges made against
him in relation to his alleged miscon.
duet while acting as principal of the
Englewood school, the case is looked
forward to as being permanent fixture
on the docket of the circuit court.
Errors Alleged.
Tn the motion for a new trial filed
by Grant Corby, attorney for the plain.
tiff, Judge Kelly is asked to set aside
the former Judgment, and order new
trial on the grounds Of errors Of law at
the trial as follows. That the court
erred in excluding the testimony Of
Lola G, Boldwin, plaintiffs witness;
erred in not instructing the jury that
plaintiff was entitled to nominal dam
ages and in holding the ruling that the
belief Of privileged communication as
set up by plaintiff was q defense, and
that the plaintiff was required to es.
tablish malice.
The defendants ask the setting aside
Of the judgment and the ordering Of a
new trial on the grounds the court er.
red in not granting motion made for
non.suit, and that the verdict arrived
at was found through prejudice caused
by the introduction of testimony not
then at issue.
Might Settle with Him.

Of school directors see fit to erase from
the records the allegations and charges
made against West, reinstate the plain.

POLITICS OF CRAFTSMANSHIP.

Some WashiL gton advices are ore
readily to be believed because the
facts to which they relate have been
foreseen. says the st. LouisGlobe
Democrat. For instance, the state
ment that the president is contemp-
lating the use of the patronage club
as a means of forcing congressman
INTO line for the tariff measures he
approves, a be accepted without
salt by all who have understood the
situation well enough to know that,
without such an argument, Mr. . Will
son would be unable to put through
q tariff-reduction measure at ,all sat
isfactory to such a pronounced free
trader as he is known to be- +1~,i
There is small use discussing the
ethics Of his attitude. He isSprepar-
ing to do what any mar with such. an.
intense conviction as his on this ques-
ton would do on seeing that his party
is very far from being a unit infavor
of enforcing the platform on which he
was elected. Those who have been
able to see this division, and to IN
derstand that Mr.. Wilson would soon
be compelled to see it, are not at all
surprised that, when he sees it, he
does just what Mr.. Cleveland did in
1898 on finding that his party in con-
gress could not be united in support
of that repeal of the Sherman pur.
chase law which it had demanded in
it's platform the year before.
But Mr.. Wilson's difficulties will be
greater than were Mr.. Cleveland's.
In 1898, the silver coinage discussion
had not yet reached a climax. Out
side Of the silver producing states
there were many democrats in con-
gress willing to swap the Sherman
law for Offices for their constituents.
The growth of industry under sixteen
years of uninterrupted protection has
given the protest agains downward
revision which will revise downward
a voice in every state. And Mr.. Will
son has far fewer offices to give than
Mr.. Cleveland had. Mr.. Wilson Is
meeting his first great problem in
the politics of craftsmanship.

GOVERNOR HANNA'S REASON.

Governor Hanna, in a plain state
ment Of facts and figures from the
fiscal records Of the state, makes
plain to the people OF the state the
reasons that impclIed him to eXer
else his veto power with respect to
appropriation bills passed by the last
y, legislature, that contemplated the eX'
penditure Of funds beyond the rev
enues of the state.
1.his~statement of the governor APP
pears in another column and vii,
doubtless be read with interest by
the people of the state, who are in
terested in its tina"cial matters. The
governor points out that it is his de
sire to see the expenditures of the
state kept withinthe revenues, and
to see all past and current debt OF
the state l%iquidated, so that at the
en- dof the biennial period shall see
all obligations OF the state paid. In
this desire, the governor will doubt
less have the support Of the taXpay'
ers of the state. who will better IN
derstand the conditions that made
the pruning Of the appropriations
necessary after they read the gov
errors plain and understandable
statement.
The figures regarding the per cap
tia increase Of taxation will also af-
ford light on the subject Of state
expenditures. The question Of the cost
of state government is one Of vital
interest to the taxpayers of the state.
The governors statement is illumin-
ating, and shows that his actions
have been based upon a careful study
of the finances Of the state and all
appreciation of his responsibility to
the people, who pay the bills.

Another letter representing a small
group in brooklyn, n, Y, is anxious
to take advantage Of the rapidly d.
minishing homestead land in this
state. They are poor people, full Of
big days work but very limited as
to means. They had written the fed
eral Office at Minot and were by it re-
ferred to the department of agricul-
ture and labor at Bismarck. These
men are foreign born, but all U. S.
citizens and very much in earnest
in their desire to get a good start in
a new country.
Yet another class is represented in
Il .ctter from Eerea, Kentucky, where
is located a college of the same name.
Word of our bumper 1912 crop has
evidently reached Berea, as will be
apparent from the following extract:
I'VE have here at Berea College

The information sought for will be
sent as soon as crop conditions indi-
cate the probable amount of help

Not n of the classes referred to
in the above brief extracts but seem
to possess many OF those most de-
sired qualities in new settlers, such
as ability and willingness to work,
youth, physical and mental strength,
and experience enough to assure the
home farmer competent help or COM
petent neighbOrs.
But North Dakota is not the only
state to which such enquiries are be-
ing sent. Montana on the west, South
Dakota in the south, Minnesota to
the east, and farther west, Idaho,
Washington and Oregon are all active
ly in the field for new blood. These
states have finally fully realized the
importance OF organized effort to Sc
cure their ends and with well organ
lied bureaus are reaching out after
the business. Is North Dakota to be
left in the race and lose that proud
prominence which she has attained
in the past?
