principals, to the enrolment of the
hundreds of children and assigning
them to their respective classes and
making order out of the necessary
chaos always in evidence on the open

BURKE IS NOT

GRoNNA SAYS NO COMPLAINT
HAS BEEN MADE AGAINST FAR
GO POSTMASTER -- REMOVALS
ARE NOT QUITE so FREQUENT.

Grand Forks Times: Former Gov.
ernor John Burke, in a letter to The
postoffice department in Washington
has declared that he does not desire
the removal of H. G. Plumley as post
master at Fargo, Governor Burke's
letter following the publication OF
stories to the effect that it was the
publication, by The Fargo Forum, Of
certain statements antagonistic to
Burke that had brought about the re-
quest Of Plumley'S resignation.
No Complaint Made.
United States Sen. A. j. Gronna,
now at his home in Lakota, stated to-
day to The Times, over telephone, that
his Investigations of the Plumley sit
uation in Washington revealed the
fact that no complaint had been made
against the official acts Of Postmaster
Plumley, and that the inspectors who
port anything amiss, so far as Mr..
Plumley's official acts are concerned.
These inspectors, however, forward
ed to the pOstoftice department a num-
Der Of copies of The Fargo Forum of
three or four years ago, In which
Governor Burke had been attacked,
and on which the inspectors based
their claim Of "pernicious political &C
tivity," although such articles were
published before Mr.. Plumley became
postmaster. and also while he had no
direct connection with the neWspa-
per.
When the p%ostoffice department de-
manded Mr.. Plumley's resignation, the
latter refused to retire.
Burke Writes Department.
The letter from Treasurer Burke
was SEM to the ~postoffice department
only a few days ago, and in it the
statement is made that "he did not
make complaint against Plumley" as
to the publication Of the articles in
question.
Senator Gronna believes that the
removal Of p%ostoffice men
has been abandoned for the time be-
ing, at least. Indiscriminate removals
were the order a few weeks ago, but
a storm was raised hat the plan
seemingly has been dropped for the
present.
Very little Xcuse was needed, ac-
cording to the general understanding
the situation, to bring about the
removal Of a postmaster.
Files Papers Against ~" Office.
With reference to the university
.postofice, Senator Gronna says his
only activity in connection Herewith
this has been the filing Of papers
which have been presented to him by

FACED DEATH BY RABIES.
Woman Writer Assures Her Friends
That 1t Was a Grim Ordeal.
Facing death from rabies Is a grim

ordeal.
This is the feeling expressed
by Mrs. Alice T. Hardness. who writes
children's verses under the name OF
Elsie Parrish, and who confidently
awaits the outcome of treatment begun
to forestall infection to which
she laid herself open by suck
the wound Of two little girls who had
been bitten by a rabid dog.
Mrs. Hardness was formerly Miss
Elsie Parrish Neill. daughter of the
Rev. DR.. and Mrs. Benjamin M. Neill of
Philadelphia. She was married in 1907
at the summer home Of her parents in
the Pocomo mountains, to Mr.. Hank
ness. a broker
Did you ever read an improbable
story and then say to yourself that it
couldn't have happened?" asked Miss
Parrish of a reporter.
That's the way I feel. OF course.
there is a horror in it all, but Just
say. feeling as I do now, thai l Just
know I'm lot going to die"
The fact that the supply of serum
to be injected into her and the three
other women who laid themselves open
to h~ydrophobia was found insufficient
may increase their peril. Medical
laws order two injections on the sec
ond day, but the supply was so low
that only one could be given.
1T was a load off my mind when the
doctors told me this stuff would SURELY
cure me-" continued Miss Parrish.
Then she said with a laugh, ri be

A Fond Dream Vanishino.

Duluth Herald: If ever there was q
spectacle Of a fond dream vanishing.
It Is that presented in the growth and
deVelopment of Canada under the hand
or British commercial and industrial
enterprise. Not so very many years
ago there were a good many people in
this country who were more or less
outspoken in the belief tina the time
was rapidly approaching when the
Lady Of the Shows" would become q
part Of the United States. Today there
are comparatively few who will ven
ture to make such a prediction for any
future time. not to mention 1t as ran
Idly approaching.
The idea got a severe bump when
he question of reciprocity was being
considered. The Canadians landed on
that idea with an exceedingly positive
negative. The idea of annexation was
preached into the issue in that coun-
try, and there can be no doubt that
his preaching had a great If not a de-
term1ning influence on the vote.
A yet more significant fact appears
in the commercial statistics of the
British empire for the last year. which
show that the total investment of
English capital in the Dominion in that
period was $40, 600, 900, an increase of
more than $50, 600. 900 over. that of the
year before. With this investment
S@I'iS a A4ooo u AlllIlllSTlIIS from the
British islea-men and women who
never have had a thought Of such a,
thing as breaking away from the royal
government, and many Of whom, in
deed, probably never would have
crossed the ocean had that act meant
the severing Of allegiance to and con-
nection with the mother country.
England, in spite of the growing in
dependence of, sovereignty In Canada,
Is constantly strengthening her grip on
her great American holdings, and that
too, in q far more powerful
than could be expressed or ACCOMPLISH

CARRIERS MUST
NOT TAKE COIN

Postmaster Flaten. in an order re-
ce1Ved from Washington a day or two
ago, Is given instructions to the effect
that rural postmen need not take loose
coins from the mail boxes.
ANY money or coins which are to be
given for stamps must hereafter be
put In an envelope or tin cup SO that
the mail man nay get the money with
out the necessity Of removing his nit
tens in the cold weather.
Numerous complaints have beer
made by the carriers in the past that
when they remove their mittens and
touch their moist hands on the frosted
metal of the mail boxes the skin freez-
es fast n is torn off when the hand
is removed. The new order was passed
chiefly to eliminate this.

A confession yesterday by Clayton

local postoffice. AS a result of the
confession a mail clerk, Edmund Gould,
has been set at liberty after his being
held to the federal grand jury a short
time e when he was arraigned be-
fore Commissioner Simons and charged
with the theft. Gould was dismissed
from the service, but after that money
kept disappearing and 1T was the later
Investigations which led the postoffce
people to believe that Gould was not
the thief at all.
