NEWARK Will NOT
have REFERENDUM
Committee Puts RESPONSE
bility of School Code Up
to Board OF Education
NO AUTHORITY
TO HOLD ELECTION
Special to The Evenlns Journal.

Special TO The Evening Journal.
NEWARK, July THE special com
mittee appointed by Mayor E. B. Fra
zer last week relative 10 the new
school code. at meeting held yester-
day, decided not 10 take any action to-
wards securing a referendum vote on
the question as TO whether or not the
Board Of Education OF the Newark spe-
oial district should accept the code.
The board at meeting last week
adopted a resolution requesting Mayor
Frazer to provide for a referendum
vote on the question agreeing 10 abide
by such a vote.
Mayor Frazer referred the matter 20
the committee that he had previously
appointed. This committee consists OF
A. l.. Beals. chairman, Samuel j..
Wright, Charles B. Evans, George Fer
guson and Harlan d. Herdman Chair
man Beals stated this morning that
the committee decided II had no au-
thority to hold such an election. He
said the committee will communicate
with the board explaining its stand
and Will also make the request that
the code be accepted.
The state Board OF Education sew
eral days ago extended the time for
two weeks for the local board to come
to some decision as to accepting or re-
iecting the code. Many citizens con-
tend that the community Is practically
unanimous in favor or the code and
that therefor there is no need for
referendum. The action OF the commit
tee has been commended by many per-
sons who. SAY this action puts the re-
sponslblity for accepting or rejecting
the code right up to the board where it
belongs.
The next step Of the board IS being
watched with great interest.

LEAGUE OFFICERS
MUST WATCH STEP

League officials at the capitol op-
posed to Townley are being subjected
it is said, to a system of espionage
which involves the use of photographs
and a well-organized corps of secret
agents who daily report to Townley
headquarter bits of information
which they may succeed in picking
up. A story purporting to cover an in
terview between T. J. Nelson of the
Independent Voters association and
Attorney General LANCER at Fargo,
which appeared in the Courier News
yesterday, and report Of an alleged
conversation between Jerry Bacon of
the Grand Forks Herald and former
State Treasurer Gunder Olson, on a
railway train betwee Grand Forks
and Fargo, are alleged to bear out
these statements.
During the LANCER faction luncheon
in Secretary of State Halls office
Monday, a Townley representative is
said to have been detected with an
eye glued to the keyhole of Halls
private office. 1t is alleged that the
boast has openly been made that a
dictagaph was planted in Senator
F. W. Mees' room in local hotel dur
ing the recent session. The plot ap-
pears to be thickening rapidly.

A new One ON
THE FORD CAR

B. A. Parsons, who is now living
at Ashland, Wis, where he is manager
Of the Home Telephone system, tells
a new one on the Ford car. 1t seems
that one of his men was trying to turn
the Ford car around on the street in
Ashland and it slipped on banana
peel turning the tin Lizzie over once
and half and pinning the driver un-
der the car injuring his leg to such
an extent that he will be laid up for
few weeks. No bones were broken
and outside of the windshield being
smashed and a few minor injuries to
that Ford the car was running soon
after the accident as clipper as ever.
1t is a safe bet that the driver will
avoid banana peelings after this. This
is the first time we ever heard of
Ford car turning over on account of
a common banana peeling.

WHY VIC. T.U.
DRIVE IS PUT ON

The Woman's Christian Temperance
Union has just begun it's war against
unrighteousness. The ratification of
the National Prohibition amendment
marks the winning of mighty bat
tie; but so long as immortality, injus-
tice, inequality, crime, feeble-minded-
ness, insanity and all the other hor-
rors that liquor leaves in it's wake are
left anywhere; so long as the cigar
teet claims thousands of our young
people; so long as there is a: nation
cursed by the liquor traffic on earth,
the w. c. T. U. will continue its war.
We are asking for money with
which to push the fight against the
organized liquor forces to the ends
of the earth. Already our breweries
and distilleries are being moved to
China. Shall we save ourselves and
let our neighbors perish?
We want money to help teach the
best of American life and ways to
the foreigners who come to our land,
that they may be saved from the evil
forces ever alert to ruin them. We
need money to carry forward the
mighty work of the forty departments
of our organization.
We have the Masters work to do,
help US by giving of the money the
Lord has loaned to you.

JUNIOR CLASS PLAY
WAS GREAT SUCCESS

The Junior class play "Diamonds
and Hearts" was played very satisfac-
torily at the Normal school auditorium
last Saturday night to several hun
dred people. The school orchestra
furnished the music between acts in
very creditable manner. The entire
cast was we'll carried out in this COM
edy drama of three acts and we are
not going to attempt to give the good
points Of the various characters in
the play but will content ourselves by
saying that the performance was very
creditable and entertaining and that
each and every one acquitted them
selves in fine shape. The Juniors GER
tainly have reason to congratulate
themselves on the success of their ef-
forts, and to every one concerned in
this production we wish to say that
they are entitled to much credit for
the good work accomplished. We un-
derstand that the class will realize
something like 5000 clear from the
venture. What they will do with the
money we do not know but presume
it will be used for some good pur-
pose.
