SELLE WIRES FROM
FAR-OFF NEW YORK
Says He Is Not An Issue In
School Board Fight
NIX ON HIS OLDJOB
Candidate, No, and He Will
Never Be, Says Brief
Telegram

An echo of the Mankato school
board election campaign has been
heard from far off New York City
1t is in the form Of a telegram from
e. S. Selle. former superintendent
of schools in this city. The telegram
was sent to The Free Press, and
read as follows:
understand my name is be-
ing used In the school election
campaign. ! am not a candidate
tor the superlntend and do
not expect to be at any future
time. Please publish. e. S.
SeiIe."
Immediately following the declina-
ton of the man Brown of Glendive
Mont, to accept the superintendency
of schools here, there was some talk
OF petitioning the board of education
to reinstate Superintendent Selle In
the position but the movement did
not gain momentum for the reason
that most Of those who were ap-
preached on the proposition, did not
warm up to It.
There Was An Obstacle
The opinion was expressed that in =
asmuch as Mr.. Selle was not in per-
feet harmony several members Of the
board, it would be poor policy to
have him continue at the head OF
the school.
But of late there has been no
thought on the part of anyone to
again place Mr.. Selle in his former
position-and certainly he cannot be
considered an important issue in the
present campaign.
Not An Issue
If anyone is attempting to inject
Mr.. Selle into the campaign with the
hope of making him an issue his or
her efforts will be in vain. There
can be no serious objections raised
to any candidate for the board of
education. All are most excellent
citizens. who have the confidence of
the people. OF course there are and
will be the usual number of stories
circulated IN the school election cam
paign that characterizes any spirited
contest wherein the people are par
ticipating.

the past year cook at the Park Ho-

On the morning Of July he arose
early, got his car in readiness for a
journey. helped himself to four
checks from the private check book
Of Landlord Fredricksen, coveted the
Jewelry owned by Miss Anna Void,
waitress at the hotel, and set out,
little thinking that the strong arm
of the law would soon place a drag
net about him.
Soon as the discovered of the
missing checks and jewelry had been
made, Sheriff Lowe was notified.
Payment on the checks was stopped
and just in time, for one check made
out for $40 came in the next morn
ing, with Mr.. Fredricksen's name
forged thereto.
In reply to the messages sent
broadcast by Sheriff Iowa, a mes
sage was received on Friday from
Brookings, S. D., stating that man
answering the description of Quay,
WAS OelnS Helu tneTe on charge OF
bootlegging. Sheriff Lowe immedi-
ately went to the South Dakota city
to get his man, but upon arriving
found that Quay was being held by
that state for having violated the
Volstead amendment, and according
ly would not turn him over. Sheriff
Lowe therefore got the stolen jew
elry and the remaining checks and
returned to this city.
