The Duluth rip-saw. [volume] (Duluth, Minn.) 1917-19??, 1917-07-21

An engineer with at least doz-
en- years Of creditable experience
approached one of the county
commissioners for his help in Sc
curing a position as assistant
county road engineer.
The honorable commissioner
did not enthuse much nor show
signs of encouragement. After be-
ing duly buzzed by the aspirant,
he finally said:
"Well, 60 and see Walker"
By Walker, the commissioner
meant Konge Odin's prime min
lister. What Mr.. Walker has to
do with positions on the county
road engineering corps has not
yet duly appeared. 1t has been
a common experience in st. Louis
county, when desiring a place at
the pie-counter, to be told to eco
see Halden" but, until recently,
eco see Walker" has not been
a password in courthouse politics.
When the new county road en-
gineer was hired in st. Paul,
brought to the city of Duluth and
then given Sd, 500 a year by the
kindly old county of st. Louis,
many doubling Thomases fully
believed that he came merely as
an important cog in the Halden
political machine.
But, as time passed and the i'm
ported engineer proved affable
Jealous and energetic, as we'll as
declared that petty politics
should play no part in county
road business and that he was
here to make a reputation and
better county roads, hope and
even satisfaction swelled high in
many hearts.
This slip of the tongue on the
part of one of the county COM
missioners causes fear, however,
that the Old Spider in the mar
ble-lined courthouse still spins
cunning webs to enmesh those
who can and will serve his own
peculiar ends-otherwise why the
behest to "Go see Walker"
When it comes to the county
surveying situation, the kindly
old county has something of "a
Man of Mystery" in the person
of Andrew Anderson, official
county surveyor. Mr.. Anderson
was elected in 1914. Some citi-
zens jokingly declare that many
Swedish voters supported him
because his name indicated
Swedish origin and that the can
ny, clannish Scotch supported
him because his name indicated
Caledonian origin. One wag says
that it would be fine applica-
tion of the law Of compensation
if he finally proved to be Dane.
All joking aside, county sur
veyor Anderson has not been
caught at surveying anything
much more than his monthly
salary check. He draws that,
month in and month out, in the
sum Of $209.33, with a neatness.
dispatch and regularity that
would shame Western Union
clock.
The laws of the peerless state
of Minneota permit county sur
veyor Anderson to not only draw
salary of $1,000 a year but also
further sum of $500 a year
for actual travelling expenses.
But, since he never travels any.
where except between his eozy
home and the marble-lined court
house, he has, with a commend.
able sense of proportion, abso-
lutely refused or neglected to
claim any Of that neat little
bunch Of travel money.
Some Of the complacent county

IT'S SOME COUNTY.

Remember. dear old citizen,
that st. Louis county has an
area of 6,612 square miles-al-
most as large as the entire state
of Massachusetts. Such a grand
domain should have an immacu-
lately clean courthouse.

The Duluth rip-saw. [volume] (Duluth, Minn.) 1917-19??, 1917-07-21

have caused the soft pedal on
publicity in the daily papers as
to any issues and an opposition
ticket. One paper declared that
there would be no opposition and
the very next day a full opposi-
tion ticket was announced.
Another daily has been exceed
ingly jealous in support of the
reelection of the old members.
1t recently printed a sensational
editorial, digging up the old A. P.
A. bones and declaring that a
stillhunt was being carried on
from house to house in the dark
of the moon.
The writer of the article may
be a member of some such organi-
zation and know whereof he
speaks but it is believed the edi-
torial was written in the interests
of Long Arms and Hidden
Hands that fear defeat for the old
members Of the board.
Many patrons of the schools
firmly believe that there are bin
vital, burning issues in this cam
paign and they are supporting
the opposition ticket because Of
said issues. If there are any Sc
cret crusades, they know them
not. Exception is taken to the
statement in a prominent local
daily that nothing is being said
about school management, sal
aries, courses Of study or the
present superintendent and his
work.
The Rip-saw finds that much
is being said but, Of course, not
in the daily papers. They would
chloroform public discussion, if
present methods mean anything.
Many patrons of the schools
believe that the present board
has strayed away from the
masses under the domination Of
few members, powerful in So
ciety and business. When it
comes to school board business,
there is a firm feeling that there
is "Too Much A. NJ. Marshall"
influence, a repetition of the
charge made against the Duluth
Commercial Club. Mr.. Dunning
is an A. NJ. Marshall employe as,
also, is Mr.. McGiffert. Rival
concerns complain that they do
not stand an even show in get
ting contracts.
The Rip-saw is not we'll enough
informed to express opinion as
to the soundness of this COM
plant but it is freely made. It
is an issue, whether properly Or
improperly.
Many patrons and teachers
firmly believe that Madam Davis
is permitted to WELD more than
her proper quota Of influence
merely because Of her strong per-
sonality and the fact that she is
charming and aggressive mem
ber Of her sex.
Reputable patrons who oppose
the old members of the board
feel that there are too MANY
frills and ornaments in the
school system and that the good
old-fashioned essentials are not
played up prominently enough.
They feel that too many female
men are getting onto the pay.
roll as teachers Of "Ring Around
the Rosey" and other fads.
Complaint is made that the
taxpayers are paying too high a
| price to educate and break in
Supt. Hoke. He now draws
$4,000 year with expenses, the
latter running up to at least
$500 a year. The former super
intendent, after 80 years service,
| received a flat salary of $4,000.

m, the annual school election is
being held in Duluth. There is
a deep interest, at least in spots
and, despite the soft pedal an6
claims to the contrary, some
sharply defined issues.
Four members of the present
board seek reelection and each
one has an earnest, determined
opponent. H. j. Grannis, DR.. L
@. Greeley and E. R. Cobb, stand
ing for three-year terms, are op
poned by A. G. LeDuc, Oscar A
Amundson and Charles G. Firo
we'd. M. A. Dunning, standing fo1
term Of one year, is opposed
by DIR. James G.. Armand.
H. j. Grannis, lawyer, main
tains offices in the First National
Bank building and resides al

stated that he is the only lawyer
on the board, but G. Francis Col
man is an experienced lawyer, al

At present, he is treasurer of the
school board and, also, a clerk ir

Cobb resides at Woodland.
DIR. L. @. Greeley at present is
