HAVE TEACHERS SHARE
PART OF STATE MONEY
Proposition Is Advanced By the
High School Board; Rea-
son Given

That the teachers of the state
should benefit by the $1,500,000
which Minnesota distributes to its
schools each year was the opinion
of the members of the state high
school board and the presidents of
normal schools, Who held con-
ference in the senate retiring room
at the capitol, st. Paul, yesterday
The object of the meeting was to
discuss special supervision by the
high school board and the normal
schools OF the teachers training
courses in los of the high schools of
the state.
The complaint was made that be-
cause OF the low salaries paid in
Minnesota many Of the best teach
ers are going west and as a result
the Minnesota school system suffers.
While ample training is offered in
this state and large appropriations
made for its maintenance, ether
CONFERENCE.-The get most Of the
benefit.
While no recommendations were
made as to change in the system
OF school aid distribution, it was
the opinion CT all that some of it
should so directly or indirectly for
salaries and that the money might
well be apportioned with this in
view, giving the advantage to the
schools paying the highest wages.
Superintendent Denfield of Duluth,
president of the high school board,
led the discussion and commented
on the difficulty in obtaining salts,
factory teachers under present con-
diticns.
The conference decided that some
system of supervision of the high
school training departments should
be adopted This will be done by
the high school board through an
assistant inspector, to be known as
supervisor OF high school training
classes. He will visit the various
schools Offering these courses and
see that the work being done is
made more uniform.

Williston, N D., Dec. 17.-Declar-
Ing for Il complete Investigation into
the lynching here of Cleve Culbertson,
convicted murderer of three persons,
Governor l.. B. Hanna communicated
with Williams county authorities.
Il consider this crime an outrage
on the name of North Dakota and a
disgrace to the state" said the gov
ernor's message. "A complete inves-
tigation by Williams county authori-
ties is ordered and if this is not fruit
full the attorney general will take up
the case"
Williams county officials began an
investigation out of which they hope
to bring to justice more than forty
masked men who stormed the Wi :
Jams county Jail, dragging out Gull
bertson to be hanged and shot to
death.
The coroner's jury, after examining
several witnesses to the affair, re
turned a verdict that it was impossi
BILE to name any OF the persons inn
plicated. States Attorney u. l.. Bur-
dick and Sheriff Erickson admitted
that they had no clues to the identity
Of any member of the mob.
Search Proves FruitIess.
Men sent into the country to search
for traces of the gang returned with.
out results. Some were successful in
tracing several members to point
eight miles cast of Williston, while
another party was traced five miles
west.
Officials are inclined to believe that
many came from Ray, the home &C
the Dillon family, for the murder of
which CulbertSon had been convicted
and sentenced to life Imprisonment
Others are believed to have come from

other important witnesses at the in.
quest.
Officers reached the scene Of the
lynching within twenty-five minutes of
the time Culbertson was hanged and
the body was cut down Immediately.
Although only three automobiles are
known to have been used it is believed
that others were hidden near by and
that the lynchers were several miles
distant when the officers reached the
scene.
