| Just what the outcome Of. all this
will be is unknown. When speculation
became so general on the Fargo streets
today, an attempt was made to in
terview President Worst, but that
gentleman absolutely declined to say
a word.
h gossip was perhaps somewhat
accentuated by the general rumor that
was current on the streets today that
George H. HOLSTER, president of the
Northern Trust Co., had resigned from
the board of trustees of the college.
When asked about the matter Mr..
HOLSTER denied the report that he had
resigned. He said there was nothing
at all public about any of his inten-
tons in regard to any such matter.
This report was first heard in the
city Friday evening. 1t persisted
through Saturday and Sunday and
this morning seemed general in many
quarters. Mr.. Hollister was an ap-
pointee on the board of the Burke ad-
m~inistration, and has served in that
capacity for several years. His term
expires next winter, after the begin
ming of the next state administration,
SO that such a step on his part would
only mean a retirement six months in
advance of his regular time. That,
however. is not considered seriously by
some of the business interests on &C
count Of the governors absence from
the state.

Speculation Rife Over
President Worst Job
as College Executive
Gossip Has 1t That Some Unseen Force Is After President
Worst's Scalp at Agricultural College
Rumor Has Been Current for Many Months in the City an
Throughout the State-Outcome Unknown
Rumor Current on Streets of Fargo Today That George H
Holister Is to Resign From the Board

Speculation Over the situation at the
North Dakota Agricultural college
which has been the subject Of commo~
gossip for many months, reached d
hight point today when a rumor spread
generally that some unknown force is
after the scalp Of DR.. John H. Worst
president of the North Dakota Agri.
cultural college, as we'll as to unseat
DR.. Ladd.
This provoked considerable comment
everywhere, and indignation in many
quarters. The situation at the college
has long been a topic for general dis
cussion in the hotel Hobbies and aboard
the trains among travelling men, but
it has not been considered so seriously,
seemingly, until today.
Runner has it that the forces who are
trying to get rid of President Worst
at the agricultural college, are the
same forces as those who are after DR..
Ladd. The people are beginning to
take a hand in this thing which they
want to know about.
1t is understood that there has been
a considerable difference Of opinion
among some Of the faculty members
at the institution during the last ear
and the other officials of the college,
which at one of the last board meet
ings resulted in rather harsh and
clustiC remarks.

They remove the platform and the
tripod to show there are no traps used,
then place the plaster head on the

COMNENDS FORUM
ON ITS STAND
LETTER COMMENCING THE FORUM
FOR T EXPOSE OF THE LAbD
COUP RECEIVED HIGHLY PRATS-
ING THIS PAPER FOR ITS VIGOR-
Gus STAND.

The following communication was re-
ceived from Bismarck this morning
from "a North Dakota voter" highly
pra1sing The Forum on its vigorous
stand in bringing to the light the un-
dercurrent against Prof. E. f. Laid of
the North Dakota Agricultural college
and the rumor that is current to un-
seat him as pure food commissioner
ana GUST him from the college. The
letter follows:
Editor, Fargo Forum, Dear Sir: I
have been an interested reader of your
worthy paper for a long time and have
a good while ago put in the list Of our
leading publications of the northwest
for all right thinking people. But af-
ter reading your article on our DR..
LaQd, am sure that you are maintain
ing a standard that is for the right.
There are a good many people in
North Dakota who have been Watching
this performance at our agricultural
college for some time and there are
those who are very much Interested and
concerned in what Is going on and 60
ing to take place.
And I want to say that if there
should be such a thing come to light
that our pure food protector of this
state was going to be removed from
successful fights he has won for the
people Of this country and the whole
world, that I would like to see the
color of the mans hair Who would be
responsible for the bringing of such a
thing around.
Il don't think that the word war with
Mexico would start the real spirit of
public sentiment that down with L,add
will do. l hope The Forum will ALWAYS
mold to Its splendid, fearless, grand and
Independent position that it now does
and give it's readers the best of your
knowledge on such very important
questions. Yours truly,
(Slgned) "A North Dakota Voter"

HOW RESINOL
CURED ITCHING
SKIN TORMENT

Baltimore, Md, May %, 1914: my
limbs from knee to ankle were com
pletely covered with eczema for a wear.
1t commenced with several small water
pimples, which burst when 1 scratched
them. until they developed into sores,
and oozed a yellowish fluid. I hated to
go in company, it itched and burned so
badly. l had no rest at night. I tried
a good many remedies for eczema, both
liquid and salve, but they did me no
good, only made the skin more rough
and scaly. l learned Of Resinol Oint-
ment and Resinol Soap m tried them,
and was relieved of the severe itching
and burning AT ONCE, and after a
months steady use was completely
cured" (Signed) T. S. Lewis, 1921

CITY COMMISSION
MADE APOLOGY
BOARD OF CITY COMMISSIONERS
THIS MORNING APOLOGIZED TO
NORTH DAKOTA FARMERS FOR
RIOT AT AUDITORIUM LAST
JANUARY,

The board Of city commissioners, in
special session this morning, passed
the following:
To the farmers and all citizens Of the
state Of North Dakota:
On June II, a committee was duly
was called by farmers to meet in the
assembly hall in the city of Fargo to
place before the general public their
side of the controversy relative to the
auditorium trouble of January, 1914.
On June 1 "a, committee was duly
appointed by said farmers to confer
with the board of city commissioners
and on June II, said information was
conveyed to the board of commission
ers, which report was accepted ana
a committee appointed for said con-
ference. The conference was held in
the city hall July Is at 2 p. m and the
following report was agreed upon, to-
wit.
That the farmers of the state of
North Dakota and others outside of
the state assembled in the city of Far
| go on certain days in January, 1914,
for the sole purpose of attending the
Tri-State Grain Growers
a farmers convention, and to listen to
| speeches, talks and discussions that
would better farming conditions. mat
all the meetings in connection with
said convention were IN an
| orderly and peaceful manner n con-
tinued so I'D to about 8 o'clock p. m.
of Jan. %, at which time an organic
| alton outside Of the state, known as
the Chamber of Commerce undertook
to get possession of the building then
occupied by the farmers convention
That the committee is not taking sides
in saying which organization mad
rented the building, but we feel GER
| tain that the citizens of Fargo are not
in sympathy of deriving the farmers
| of n rights they may have in hold
ing meetings in any building in the
| CITY and we do not only deplorc, put
as board Of commissioners hereoy
| apologize for the act of the few cltl-
| zens and peace officers that liz (even
though mistaken) do that which IN
suited the farmers throughout the
| state and committed an act that made
| the farmers feel hat they were not
welcome in this city, and made 1t seem
that the chamber Of commerce can
with the aid Of Fargo citizens and
peace officers keep the farmers from
discussing topics that will obtain for
them more industrial freedom at the
terminal markets.
We take this way of presenting this
to the said farmers, assuring them
hat sections TX and x of the consti-
tuition of the state Of North Dakota
must be upheld.
Committee appointed by h COM
| mission-H. F. Emery, Alex Stern.
We, the committee of farmers
wh4ch was duly appointed, hereby &c
knowledge that we attended the con-
| ference and approve the above report.

the minutes.
