CONCERNED OVER
WORST And LADD
PEOPLE IN STATE SEEM ExER-
cIsED ABOUT STATEWIDE re.
PORTS CONCERNING POSSIBLY.
TY OF REMOVING oRs. WORST
AND LADD FROM A. C.

People in the state seem greatly asi-
tated over the rumor that apparently
Is prevalent in many quarters Of the
state over the possibility OF the re-
moval Of President Worst of the North
Dakota Agricultural college and DR..
Laid from the food commissionership.
Following is a letter from DIR. A.
Meg. Beede, of C~annonball and Bis
marck, which. seems to express the
sentiment of men in and about the
state capital:
TO The Fargo Forum: A score or
more Of leading men asked me yes
terday wha the complaints are against
Professor Ladd and President Worst,
and who is making the complaints-as
II I ought to know. l don't know any
thing about it. I1want to know.
Fifteen of these men said they did
not vote to" send Worst to the senate
because they wanted to keep him where
he is now. All of them expressed ome
thing like irritation at the idea of
prosecuting" Ladd.
Il do not wish to butt into'' any,
thing, but if any persons think Messrs.
Worst and Laid have ceased to be USE
full to the people in their respective po-
sitions in the agricultural college, we
should be allowed to know definitely
what the complaints are, VINO Is max.
ing them and what influences are at
the bottom of the matter. ~
"The people want justice if they can
find out what it is. The impression
prevails out this way that the agri-,
cultural college is doing exceptionally
good work. In my visit to the college
1 came in contact with the student
body chiefly, and the spirit n pur-
pose of that body has seemed to me
all that We can desire. Simple reality
and energy has seemed to mark every
thing.
(Signed,) ga. Meg. Beede,"

building
Mr.. Crabbe in the course Of his re-
marks on the handful sent out by
MI. O'Shea with reference to the Agas-
slz school building. said that there were
no specific charges in the handbill it
being stated that 1t was structurally
unsafe n in an unsanitary condition.
He said that h building has been in
use for nearly three years and upon a
close examination recently showed no
structural defects and that the plumb
ing sanitary condition of the build
ing is as perfect as when constructed
and that the building will stand the
most rigid inspection both as to its
structural safety and sanitary condi-
ton: This circular" he said, ais
right in line with Mr.. O'Shea's method
of doing business, as he has attacked
other architects in past years along the
same lines"
In the routine business transacted
last night it was found that the build
ing committee has been able to have
thar the $4,000 allowed for them.
Architect Crabbe was authorized to
investigate the cost of a new ventilat-
ing system for the washington school.
The following new teachers were elect .
ed: o. B. Badger, manual training;
c. W. Bingham, history; T. H. Quigley,
manual training and algebra and
Helen Reid, fifth grade.
A committee of citizens headed by
Thomas Baker, jr.. T. F. Powers and
George Tibert, appeared to ask the
board of education to consider their
claims to a high school building on the
north side, or at least for a building
in which provision could be made to

surest of all ways to get results &C.
complished. They consist of four-day
weeks in a county, two meetings a
day, in townships considering CON
solidation. County compaigns are es-
sentially winter campaigns - as the
winter is the time when the largest
audience can be obtained in farming
communities. Meetings are scheduled
several weeks in advance by the coun-
ty superintendent of schools, who
sends a personal letter to all the par
ents in the districts concerned. Meet
lngs are held in the opposition as well
as in the favoring districts and the
automobile, furnished by the county
superintendent, is used for TRANSPORTS
ton. Mr.. Hollis has found it efficient
and reliable in the coolest weather
us speed under ordinary conditions
more than compensating for the oc-
cas1onal breakdown in an unusually
heavy snowdrift. A light machine OF
the Ford type, can be easily lifted out
or a drift, where the heavier ma
chimes are helplessly stuck.
One of the conditions of the county
campaign Is that the county super
lntendent or a deputy accompany the
lecturer, SO that local conditions car
ne explained and a unity of effort OBJ
tanned.
In a general way the plan of this de-
partment is to conduct open country
campaigns in the five cold months, and
to reach the cities, teachers associa-
lions, institutes, directors meetings,
and summer schools the rest of the
year. This year campaigns have been
conducted in Ransom. LaMoure, Kid
der, Grand Forks, Hettinger, Mountrail
and Nelson counties.
The department is constantly secur-
ing new data and photographs right
OF the field itself, and welcomes
all such views and information from
teachers. county superintendent and
all other interested in Making the
Most Of Farm Boys and Girls, this being
the topic of Mr.. Hollis, lecture. He. is
now preparing a new set OF slides and
printed lecture to accompany the
slides, to be sent out to places where

cy based upon a deposit Of assets of
the bank with the secretary of the
treasury. MI. Weiser presented to the
directors Of the association the needs
Of North Dakota at this particular
time and asked that the First Nation
al bank of Fargo be admitted to mem
bership In the twin city association
in order that 1T might be more than
ever in position to take care of the
needs Of this state. In order to admit
to membership a bank outside of Min
nesota, 1t was necessary to amend the
bylaws of the association; but a spe-
clal meeting, was called at once for
that purpose and the First. National
bank of Fargo taken into membership.
The twin city association a alrea-
dy applied and qualified for $4,000
600 Of emergency currency, which will
be received within a few days, and a
sufficient mount Of which will then
be available for the crop moving re-
quirements of our state.
The compliment paid to the First
National bank Of Fargo and the conf
dence shown in it's management by
the twin city association Is very
gratifying to its many friends and is
of vast importance to the whole state
Of North Dakota.

Board Asks "
Charges Be Specific

The board of education at its regu-
lar monthly meeting last night unani-
mously voted to have Architect A. J.
O'Shea specify in writing the particu-
lars In which the Agassiz school
building is faulty as to it's structure,
sanitation and ventilation. The action
of the board was taken as a result of
the circulation by Architect O'Shea of
the following circular:
To the parents Of the children at
tending the Agassiz school-warning!
My curiosity being aroused bv vari-
GUS reports OF the Agassiz school, /
made a visit to the same and found
UGH a condition that I have to advise
you to have the building Investigated
by an impartial expert and a detailed
and scientific report made to you as to
the structural safety and sanitary
condition of the building, before send
ing you children to school there.
I have been thirty yeals in the
building business and a practIcing ar
chttect in Fargo for nearly twenty
years, and am willing to admit that
know nothing about the building bust
ness if you will not be Mortified al the
risk to which the children were sub
jected.
If the expert you employ does not
tell you the truth, 1 will later.
A. j. O'Shea,
Architect.
A copy of this circular was ordered

board meeting. Last nights meeting
was a heated one In the course of the
general discussion Architect S.. f,
Crabbe, who supervised the construc-
ton Of the Agassiz school building,
called the attention Of members of the
board to an attack by O'Shea on a
prominent firm of Fargo architects
about eight years ago. Further action
relative to O'Shea's charges was de-
ferred until such time as he shal have
put forth his specific charges in writ
