That state is fortunate which is
we'll governed in spite of it's fool
laws. While it is possible to get de.
cency without tyranny, our legsla
lures revel in experiments to make
men good. Although the futility of it
all has been demonstrated time and
again, the blue laws continue to in.
crease in bulk and decrease in en-
forcement.
There are certain major offenses
outlined in the decalogue which every
good citizen insists must not be com
mitted and which the law Furnishes in
cases of conviction. The community
as a whole is agreed that for the
protection of society these acts mus,
be decreed as unlawful and the guilty
ones answer for any. infraction.
But after we have passed this com
mon ground. public opinion differs
widely. In fact, so intense is the di
vision that argument itself is futile
1t is notorious fact that ninety
per cent, probably more, of our Sun
day closing laws are dead letters
Why are they not enforced?

due upon book account the plaintiff
attaches to its complaint and makes
a part thereof an account which be-
gins on the 9TH day Of March, 1909,
but in proving his case and in his evil
dence in chief, proves the account as
beginning at an earlier date, namely.
the 14th day of August, 1908, and the
point at issue in the case is whether
a sale alleged to have been made

was actually made, and no permits
sion has been asked to amend the
complaint and no amended answer
has been requested, the issues will be

Hot why" y-sv, - ,.--..
II This is the statement the Fargo
toakier-News puts into the mouth of
3ohn H. Worst, president of the Agri-
cultural college.
Is he bidding for sympathy or at
tempting to create a political issue
that will watt him into the guberna-
torial chair and fresh public emolu-
ments?

I done much for the Agricultural col

ysarrfsed, for. his, refinement and the in
& snsfnk Of lew pltbd.,Ilto the institu-
-. Is ton s4maaa ~!The faculty is
split and soured by dissension and
strife. Mr.. Worst has failed to devel-
OPP leadership commensurate with the
growth of the institution. He belongs
to one clique and Prof. Cooper to an.
other. The school suffers from the
conflict.
Private corporations would not toll
crate such a condition for moment
There is no reason why the Agricul-
tural college should be made a polt-
ical pawn or feeding trough for
men who have their own rather than
the interest Of the institution at heart
The board of regents is clothed with
plenary powers to force Worsts re-
tirement. It's members did so in a
graceful way, paying the highest trib-
ute to his work. The remarks credit.
ed to him indicate that he places a
low estimate upon the dignity of the
Office he holds.
Men in public life who seek to
drag the educational institutions into
politics usually get scant notice from
the voters. President Worst evident.
ly is straining for an issue. The
Tribune cares not what his political
ambition is. He has been honored by
the state and we'll paid for his serv-
ices. The opportunity for further
service has been afforded him by the
regents. His threat is untimey, vi
cious, uncalled for and will merely
strengthen the conviction long deeply
rooted in the public mind that a
change of administration at the Agri.
cultural college is imperative.
The board of regents is approach.
ing the problem of eliminating waste
and duplication from our educational
institutions courageously and tactful.
~. It is only to be expected that
some of the educational clique, deeply
4 entrenched at the public crib, will op-
pose changes and reforms.
Every citizen should support the
regents in the task before them.
The future of the Agricultural col
lege is of more importance to the
state than the political future of Mr..
Worst. Two years ago he debased
his high office by seeking political
pereferment. Probably he has the
same thing in mind again.
His retirement is without political
! significance as far as the board of
regents is concerned. Any political
shading that is given it will be by
