vacancies. No charge is made against
the district for placing teachers in
their schools.
Any n who has stopped to think
of this matter, easily recognizes the
fact that the fees are paid out of the
teachers salaries and not out of the
treasury Of the district employing
them. 1t is a conceded fact among
most people of our state that the av-
erage teacher Is underpaid. Why
should 1t be necessary to have this ex-
ira drain upon the teachers meagre
income whenever they wish a change
Of location?
The question arises as to whether
there Is a demand for teachers agen-
Giles. Judging from the fourishing
condition in which we find the aEen-
cies of our state, we should say that
there is a demand for them. If there
Is a demand for them, would it be
proper to o~hliterate them entirely &?
Some men say yes" to this question.
They would substitute for the q
the recommendation committees Of
our normal schools. colleges and uni
versity. In the first place these COM
mittees would do no good for those
who come from other states. Further
more, these committees use their en-
ergies mostly in placing their present
graduation classes leaving former
graduates to shift for themselves.
What shall the teachers do who
have been working in a place for one
or two years, and wish to change To-
cation? The answer to this question
may be stated in a few words. Oblit-
crate the private teachers agencies
and in their place establish g. state
teachers employment bureau, to be To-
Gated at the state capitol. The work
or this bureau should be to enroll
teachers who are looking for positions
and to receive reports of prospective
vacancies from school boards, city sup
er1ntendents, and county superintend-
ents. A small fee could be taken from
each teacher so that only those who
sincerely wish a change, would enroll.
A nominal fee could be charged
against districts employing such
teachers. The fees thus collected
would go a long ways toward paying
the salary Of the bureau :
BY this arrangement much unnec-
essary waste would be avoided, not
only in the exorbitant fees paid, to pri-
Yate agencies, but also in the waste
or time and money in sending appIica-
tions, to many different places at the
same time. There would be one place
for the school boards to look for
teachers, and the one place for the
teachers to turn themselves to, when
they desire to change location. That
one place would be the State Teach
ers' Employment Bureau. In time it
would make the teaching force of our
schools more efficient, because this
bureau would recommend only such
teachers as would be competent to do
the work for which they have applied

NEW CROP PROSPECTS

Minneapolis Tribune: Winter wheat
prospects that had been viewed as
very favorable, and to hat degree
added to the heaViness Of the domes-
tic wheat situation, caused some i'm
paiTment Of pit optimism, if nothing
worse, last week by adverse weather
developments in Kansas. While the
inCipient crop scare failed to broaden
the market much more than TO force
covering of short spectators, it mark
ed the beginning of h new crop
growing period which never fails to
bring forth it's harvest uncertainty.
Unless present weather in the
southwest is severe enough to cause
damage the indications are hat the
April report will give a high condition
Of the crop. The winter was unusual
ly mild, the soil just about dry enough
to force the roots deep into the soil
and the vigorous plants minimized the
winter killing. Snow and rain this
month has overcome whatever mois-
ture deficiency there was to the ex-
tent, at least, Of insuring the crop a
good start this spring.
Impairment since the fall sowing,
even in the last week, therefore, is
presumed to be slight but, unquestion-
ably, the speculative market will be
found very sensitive to damage or in
timation of damage simply because
the market has been d~iscounting per-
feet crop prospects and a change In
the outlook would shift the predom-
mating pit commitments from the
short to the long account.
Consideration Of the new crop, how
ever, doe not permit the trade to ig-
more the old crop statistics. Consump-
ton, relative to current supplies, con-
tinues moderate. The only encourage
ing commercial activity is the export
business that has developed sufficient
ly On sharp declines in the market to
check the weakness. The domestic
demand for wheat is limited by a mar
row -four trade, although there is a
marked scarcity of desirable milling
wheat now coming to the terminals
which tends to hold the higher grades
fairly strong.
Flour buyers are still disposed to
wait for lower prices and as they have
good stocks ON hand they are not likely
to be influenced by the mere sugges-
! ton of crop damage. Nevertheless,
there is less congestion in -four sup
plies n wheat prices are devoid of
imitation SO that the market is Veering
to a position that must prove sooner
or later very attractive to bakers If
not to distributors, unless prospective
tariff changes enter as a factor to
curtail future commitments.
In the northwest an early spring is
desired owing to the small amount Of
fall blowing that was accomplished
which will necessitate heavier field
work unless spring wheat farmers
chance fate again by sowing in the
stubble. Soil conditions in the three
states are considered very good. South
Dakota has a deficiency that has been
helped out considerably by the recent
snoWfalls, but Minnesota and North
Dakota are considered to be in prime
condition, so that the only problem
Immediately confronting the north
western farmer is the time that he

When William Howard Taft left the

There Is a constant tendency at the
present time throughout the country,
to raise the standard Of journalism.

OF stories, that should be unprintable.

aim OF The Forum. as of other reputa-
BILE papers that have a wide circula-
ton in the homes of the community
they serve, to play up the educa-
tionai features in the news. to make
an effort to build up, rather than to
tear down. Of ours it is the duty
of a newspaper, to give to its readers
all the real news Of the day and that
nay include many things that the
newspaper man might like to leave
imprinted. but which the readers de-
mand to know about.
But the tendency Is to give simply
the facts in such instances, and to
leave out the grewsome details, that a
few years ago were enlarged upon in
almost every paper, and which still
are played up" by certain journals.
The yellow journals are not all gone
by any means Out in Denver they
have become a menace. as will be seen
from the following editorial comment
on conditions there from The New
York Post:
A Citizens Protective league has
just been formed in Denver, and what
does the reader think is its object? To
protect the city against disease or
crime? No; against vicious journal
ism. It appears that increasing num-
berS OF citizens have become disgust
ed with the course Of the Denver
newspapers. 1t is not chiefly the
squabbles between rival editors that
they object to, though these are un-
seeInly enough, but the practice Of
sensational journalism in it's worst
forms.
Filth is ladled into Denver homes
by some of these sheets. They seize
upon every scandal and story of vice
n spread the whole forth in start
ling and exaggerated reports. Some

The thing has gone SO far hat a
league has been formed to combat this
public evil. The intention Is to keep
up a rain of protests against the pub
location Of all the revolving details of
crime, n by combined action to
bring the truth home to yellow editors
that their course is not only offensive
to the public sentiment of their city,
but will surely lead to the withdrawal
of public support. Such q movement Is
both a reproach and an encourage
ment to journalism, That a city should
need to organize against a demoraliz-
ing press is a shame, but the fact
that 1t is done, and that the example
may be initiated, gives ground for
hoping that the profession may
be freed from these excuses Of nasti-

AGENCIES

Crosby, N. D., March 24.-To The
Forum: At this time of the year,
teachers, principals and superintend-
ents are literally flooded with COM
m~unfcations from several of the So
called teachers agencies. The COM
munication sent to the ordinary teach
err is always accompanied by an enroll
ment blank. These agencies enroll
teachers for a fee CASUALLY so. The
agencies also promise to gather as
much information as possible concern
ing the teacher and then to notify the
teacher of prospective vacancies. They
promise to help the teacher secure a
position, but they do not guarantee to
locate any one. When the teacher ac-
cepts the position in question, the
agencies usually gets 5 per cent Of the
first years salary.
Principals and superintendent re-
ceive the enrolment blanks also, but
besides this they receive blanks for

COMPANY
SHIFTS OFFICERS
BANKERS WHO FINANCED CON-
GERM EFFECT REoReANIzA-
TON IN MANAGEMENT-ScoTT
NEW TREASURER 49, RuMELY
CONTINUES VICE PRESIDENT.

Chicago Tribune: The bankers
who financed the M. RumeIy Co., VIII
liam Solomon & Co, and Hallgarten
Sc Co., have brought about, it is IN
nounced, a financial reorganization of
the management. Dr. Edward A.
Rurnely, formerly treasurer and gen.
eral manager, is succeeded by Emmett
Scott as treasurer. Mr.. Rumely con-
tinues as vice president and general
manager. In addition a new position
that of vice president in charge Of the
company's finances, was voted and j.
H. Guy elected to fill the place. Also
q finance committee was named con-
sisting Of three members. one Of whom
represents Hallgarten & Co., and n
other William Solomon & Co. The
third member is DR.. Rumely.
It Is declared the complete direction
Of the finances Of the company is now
to be by the bankers, who through
their special representatives will pass
upon all expenditures.
Within the last fortnight the work
ing force has been cut down by 1000
or more men and it is proposed for
the time being to put products
requiring less credit than heavy ma
chimes or tractors.
Nothing About 100000 Notes.
No announcement has been made as
to the placing Of the $40, 900, 900 notes
voted to retire the floating debt, or
rather bills due at the banks. In
some instances the banks have accept
ed the new obligation in lieu of the
unsecured paper. The notes come
ahead of both the preferred and COM
non stock and bear 6 per n inter
est. The preferred stock issue is
&c. 600, 900 and the common outstand-
ing $12,0 900, 600. In order to pay the
debts accumulated it was necessary
to swell the capitalization by SIC, 000,-
900.
So far as can be learned an effort
is to be made to pull the company u
OF its overexpended condition, But in
SO doing the common stock dividend
at the rate of 6 per cen will be dis
continued. The notes, just issued, are
convertible into common stock at par.
Inasmuch as the common stock closed
Friday at ASH there is no probability
Of a note holder exchanging his Sc
purity for the common stock on the
terms mentioned, since his security is
worth more than the preferred stock.
G. p. Holton Is the new secretary of
the company. Mr.. Holton was for
merly identified with Gaar, Scott &
