Work on HighschooI
Board Of Education Practically Decides to Relieve
Congestion in Grades First

1t was practically decided by the
board of education, at a meeting held
last night, that a new grade school
| Will be erected at a cost Of $4,000 be-
fore any attempt will be made to
construct the proposed new high
school building, which will, in all
likelihood be erected on the site Of the
burned high school building and the
Central grade building now used for
high school purposes.
The much more rapid growth Of
the grades in comparison to the high
school as pointed out by Supt. Arthur
Deamer caused the board to consider
the grade situation and preliminary
steps were taken to sell $4,000 worth
Of bonds to be used as part Of a grade
school of fourteen or sixteen rooms
once on Block 45. Roberts second ad-
dition, which was recently purchased
by the board.
1t was pointed out by Member John
Frame that the board can still float
$4,000 worth Of bonds without call
Ing a bond election and that this
amount added to the $50, 900 insurance
secured in the adjustment Of loss on
the burned high school building, will
furnish the greater part of the funds
necessary for the proposed grade
building.
Deamer's Statement.
In his statement to the board Su-
perintendent Deamer called attention
to the serious congestion in the grade
buildings, especially the Longfellow
and Roosevelt schools. He pointed out
that there were 2s3 more pupils in the
grades in January, 1917, than there
were in January, 1915. This is actual
attendance and does not take into
consideration 10 new pupils who be-
gan school at the beginning OF the
second semester under the mid-term
promotion system on Jan. 20.
Superintendent Deamer said that
the conditions at the Longfellow
building were all but intolerable. The
rooms are all crowded and the port
able building, erected on the Longfel-
low grounds, is filled. pupils sitting
within two feet Of the stove and with
in two feet of the front wall.
In this building there is an average
of 38 pupils per teacher. In the
Roosevelt school there are 40 pupils
per teacher on the average, while in
the Mckinley and Agassiz schools
there is an average Of 81 pupils per
teacher. The report shows that there
was exactly the same attendance in the
high school in January, 1917, as there
was in January, 1915.
His report showing the actual at
tendance at the various schools, taken
from the teachers reports for the cur
rent month and compared with the
actual attendance in January. 1915, is
as follows:

Sam Bayard, which l wish to submit
for your consideration and action:
Information had come to me that
the men doing duty on Front street
after midnight, were spending much
of their time inside of the little scale
house at Fifth and Front streets, in
stead of walking their beats, where
upon, decided to watch the trans
actions myself, and ascertain the
facts.
Accordingly, on the morning Of De-
cember "a, 1915. secreted myself
in a convenient place near the scale
house at about lis o'clock. About
ten minutes later, saw Captain
Tieteens in company with another
man come to the scale house ana try
the door, and after moment OF
waiting they entered. At 1:4O one

bound over to the district court on q

scale house and was admitted. Zen

man whom / do not know came out of
the scale house and all went westerly

officer Bayard returned and entered
the scale house. Immediately there
after he came out without his over
coat and went for a few minutes be-

LAYING GROUNDWORK
FOR Y" CAMPAIGN
Rapid Progress Being Made For &c.
fort That Will be Held on
Feb. 1926.

The underground work in connec-
ton with the approaching Y. M. C. A.
campaign, Feb. 1926. is being rapidly
and effectively, done. In every cam
paign such as the approaching build-
ing campaign for the city and agri-
cultural college Christian associations
there Is always a very great deal OF
work which has to be done which does
not appear on the surface. To assist
in this work Chester Belcher has been
secured to help State Secretary A. B.
Dale and Ray Sweetman. When not
out scouting Mr.. Belcher may be
found at the headquarters OF the Sec
ond floor Of the association building,
where he will be glad to answer any
questions and be OF any assistance
possible to any one interested In the
campaign.
Among the encouraging items of
news to those Interested in the cam
paign is that DIR. Thomas GrahanS,
pastor of the First Presbyterian
church.. has consented to organize q
team OF workers among the ministers
of the city who will in every possible
way give their influence and boost the
campaign. The force of team leaders
has been greatly strengthened by the
accession Of M. A. Goldsmith, OF the
firm of Peterson & Goldsmith and
Henry D. Brown, the dry cleaner. The
list of workers is rapidly being filed
up. 1t is safe to say that stronger
group of leaders and men has never
been organized in the city.
A letter was sent today by State
Secretary A. B. Dale to all the pastors
OF the city asking them to present the
association work in their churches on
Feb. is.

Annex hotel and went westerly over
Bayard's beat. At 4:33 both returned
to the scale house. AT $40 Ohhcer

It will be seen from the above that
Officer Konen never went over his
beat for a period of about five hours,
and during that time spent nearly an
hour on Bayard's beat, probably most
of the time inside. certainly one-half
of the time while they were in the
Annex hotel. Neither officer so far
as I could see ever went through an

two men whom we could not identify

THE GARRICK

Marguerite Clark in her greatest
success Miss George Washington made
a big hit yesterday at the Garrick. The
trials Of the little girl who could not
tell the truth and the embarrassing
positions that result is the heart OF
the best comedy of the better kind
that can be recalled to memory OF
having shown in Fargo. Everything is
so human and winsome. Marguerite
Clark is certainly real to the part of
the little girl in boarding school. The
production is one of laugh producing
merits. Due to the late arrival of the
film it is to be shown but two days
with today as the last day.

both went to the Annex hotel and at
lao both officers in company with
officer Bayard came out of the hotel.
The captain and Bayard went west
erly on Front street, and Officer kon-
en- returned to the scale house, where
he remained until 2:10, and then went
easterly on Front street. While the
three officers were in the Annex hotel,
the two above mentioned strangers
came to the scale house In taxlcao'

ficer Bayard returned to the scale
house. At 2:33 officer Konen re-en-
tered the scale house: where ne re-
NAMED until $3.50, when he went
easterly over his beat. At $3.50 Bay
ard and the two unknown men came
out of the scale house. One of the
men went easterly on Front street,
while the other accompanied Bayard
going westerly. At 4:10 Bayard re-
turned to the scale house, where ne
remained about three minutes, when
he went westerly over his beat we
remained on watch until 900 o'clock
but did not see either of the officers
again up to that time, when we dis
continued.
I have not spoken to either Of the
officers against whom am complain
ing regarding these things, and they,
of course, have a right to be heard II
they wish to make a defense.
It seems to me that Captain Tlet-
gems has shown himself to be abso-
-lutely unfit to be in charge of any
police station or to be commanding
officer over others, for he seems to
connive with the officers in the neg
lect of duty, and also with the people
who are inclined to violate the law,
to cover up their misdeeds. | can
only come to the one conclusion on
account of the above circumstances
with reference to the affair or Peter
Johnson and the other two unknown
men who came to the scale house,
namely, that they were bringing IL
quor to the scale house at the request
of the officers, with the full knowledge
of Captain Tietgens. If not by his
special request, and were even fur
nished keys to the scale house for
this purpose. 1t appeared that all
three of the officers had keys to the
scale house as well as the two men
mentioned. The captains conduct
shows either a woeful lack of police
knowledge or which is worse. desire
to cover up wrong doing.
There has been a good deal of 1eal-
ousy existing in the department, which
has from time to time come to my
knowledge If certain officers while
not on duty are seen on certain other
officers beats, the man on the beat
complains, believe, for fear the other
officer will make an arrest on his beat
or will report some wrong doing oc-
curing there. No police force can be
successful with such state of aft
fairs. and no man at the head of any
police department can make good with
such subordinate officers,
1t is, therefore, my opinion that
these men should be summarily dis
charged or permitted to resign.
Very respectfully submitted
