port duty levied by this government on
foreign merchandise; new income

ing a net income above $4,000. and an
array OF important changes In customs

justing administrative affairs and
which will have an important bearing
on ell trade developments of the conn-
try for the next year or two.

Rousingt Meeting Held
Last Night Addressed
by Governor Hanna
Exact Status of the College the Hill Made Public and
Discussed in Open Court of the Peope-Committee
Named to do Things"

It was a rousing meeting that Gov
ernor Hanna addressed last night at
the Fargo Commercial club, which was
called by President Watson of the club
and President Emery of the city COM
mission to consider ways and means
for the continuation Of Fargo col
lege.
Governor Hanna's talk was the chief
feature Of the evening although the
new acting president of the college,
John w. Hansel, responded also and
presented some figures showing what
had been done at the college and what
was to be the future policy of ad-
ministration on the hill.
The governor told the history of the
college from the date Of it's founding,
Of the history Of its financial struggles
and what Fargo as a city, and it's
citizens as individuals, had done in
all these years for the institution.
In eleven years he said only $4,000
has been raised in this city for the
support of the school. The rest had
all come from the outside. 1t was
estimated that 100000 annually was
spent by the students of that instltu-
ton in Fargo. This he felt warranted
more support than $4,000 from the
citizens Of Fargo in eleven years.
Fargo college has sufficient property
interests both in this city, and in
Trail and Stutsman counties to cover
its entire Indebtedness, but that is
about all. 1t has nothing left for run
ming expenses, which amount to about
$4,000 a year. 1t will require about
$4,000, raised now, to cover the cost Of
operation between now and Jan. l and
this will have to be raised by Fargo
people before outsiders will even con-
slider donating to the cause
The governor stated that unless this
money was raised, he as one Of the
trustees would vote to close the doors
Of Fargo college on Jan. i, which
would be a splendid advertisement for
the city of Fargo.

POLISH
ARTIST
ARRIVES

Ignace Paderewsl5i, the worlds most
noted pianist for g. quarter of a CEN
tury, perhaps, arrived on his first visit
to Fargo this morning aboard his
private car on the Northern Pacific,
and has been spending the day quietly
in the comforts of his car all day.
The noted musician, 1t is said, slept
well last night and spent a. most de-
lightful day, practicing part Of the time
and pursuing some Of his own pleas
ures the remainder of the day. 1t was
announced this afternoon that he was
in excellent spirits for his concert at
the North Dakota Agricultural college
armory this evening. t-..a. . l.. I.
A fine piano is aboard his special
car, where the great Paderewski play
ed for several hours at a stretch, CIV
ing the railroad yardmen and switch
men the privilege Of switching their
engines to the strains of mazurkas and
sonatas for the first time in their lives.
This engine can work. excellently
to the tune Of that Beethoven con-
certo," said one happy engineer. Il
like it better than the movement Of the
List rhapsody in z major, which sort
of keeps me from throwing off the
clutch at the right time. Which do
you like best, O'Reilly?" he asked a
companion in the cab.
81 rather like that little run he plays
from the sonata of the major opus
1867 answered the fireman.
All in all, however, the yardrnen ex-
pressed their delight at having such
a noted man play for them today. It
was something wonderful to them, just
as 1t is going to be wonderful to those
who are fortunate enough to hear the
great musician tonight.
His programme is one Of q high Or
der and the concert is sure to be a
success. Prof. E. Fl. Boehmer of the
Dakota Conservatory of Music this aft
ernoon announced that 1t would prove
a success from financial standpoint
as well.
Strange as it may seem, the name
OF the secretary of the noted artist is
g. Sharp. Mr.. Sharp was found to be
most affable and not the least opposed
to conyersing about the artists health.
He said he enjoyed the ride to Fargo,
slept well and had eaten heartily to-
day. All in all, he said he was feeling
in the best of spirits for a concert.
After the programme this evening,
Mr. Sharp said PaderewsM would not
object at all to meeting those who
cared to meet him.
About the pianist today, two special
plain clothes men OF the Fargo police
force have been detailed The North
ern Pacific railroad also provided this
same number Of plain clothes men to
accompany him while touring on that
railroad.
The arrnory has been most elabor-
ately decorated for the occasion.
