EDUCATORS ELECT OFFICERS.
Business Transacted by the Presidents and
Clerks of the County School Boards.
S, a——
The presidents and clerks of the dif
ferent Cass County school boards con
cluded the labors of their second an
nual convention in this city last even
ing. and adjourned to meet in Fargo
in December next year-
Following the regular programme,
which included addresses by State Su
perintendent Olson of Minnesota, State
Superintendent Stockwell of North Da
kota, Mrs. Mattie M. Davis, superin
tendent of the Cass County schools and
Architect George Hancock of this city,
the regular routine business of the as
sociation was taken up.
President J. P. Dahlquist of the Fargo
city board was elected, a delegate to the
State Educational Association meeting
which will be held at Grand F^jrks on
Dec. 29-30-31.
The election of officers for the com
ing year was taken up. Mr. Young,
who served the association during the
past year so ably, was nominated, but
he declined the honor, stating that at
the present time he is not a member
of any school board and in his judgment
would be ineligible for the position.
The nomination had not been seconded,
and Hon. B. H. Mallough of Wheatland,
who has had considerable parliamentary
experience in the state legislature, saw
a way out of the difficulty and moved
that all ex-members of school boards of
county, be ex-officio or honorary mem
bers of the association. This motion
was carried and then Mr. Young's name
was again placed in nomination and he
was declared elected. The officers are:
President—-N, M. Young of Cassel
ton.
Vice President—E. Q. Powlison of
Wheatland.
Secretary—Dr. F., jL Richter,
Treasurer—B. F. Mallough, Wheat
land.
President Young announced that he
would appoint the members of the exec
utive and other committees at an early
date and forward the names of the gen
tlemen,,so appointed to Secretary Rich
ter. ', v ,'V ..
The L. K. lodge rooms, in which the
convention was originally palled, were
found uncomfortable, and in the after
noon. learning of this fact, Secretary
Phelps or the Commercial Club, kindly
offered the club parlors for the use
of the association. The tender was ac
cepted and a vote of thanks was given
Mr. Phelps and the Commercial Club
for the comforts afforded. v
The best paid official in thi 'ttorld is
said to be the grand vizer to the sul
tan of Morocco, Ben Hammed who held,
the office twelve years previous to hi$
death, which occurred recently, left-*!

A RESOLUTION
FOR ELECTION
f-i/
Commlssfcm&nr' Will
Resolutions for Special Bond Elec
tion During the Afternoon.
The Amount of the Proposed Bond Is*
sue Being Discussed—Porrltt
Block for Temporary Use.*
It is more than likely that before, the
county commissioners adjourn tonight
that they will pass a resolution author
izing the county auditor to call a special
election to vote on a bond issue for
the construction of a new court house.
At 3 o'clock this afternon the pro
posed amount of the bond issue had not
been decided on by the board, but $200,
000 was the amount most talked of, and
will probably be the sum named in the
proposition to be submitted to the vot
ers.
The advisability and legality of sub
mitting three propositions was discussed
yesterday and today, but The Forum
learns that State's Attorney Smith has
advised the commissioners to settle on
the amount they think the county should
expend, and then to present it as a sin
gle proposition of bonds or no bonds.
It the opinion of the majority of
the members of the board that the elec
tion should be called at the earliest
possible moment and that it should be
held at the places used in general elec
tions for polling.
It is quite likely that the resolution,
embodying all of the points suggested
will be drawn up by State's Attorney
Smith and passed by fhe board before
it adjourns tonight, when the date of
the election and the sum to be voted on
will be known. If the board does not
pass the resolution tonight an adjourn
ment will be taken until next Wednes
day at which time it will be passed.
The board is in receipt of a number
of letters of enquiry from architects
o\$pr the country, and has received many
cuts of beautiful courthouse structures
recently erected in the west and in
course of construction. Chairman New
ton is very favorably impressed with the
cut of a beautiful two-story and base
ment building, which perhaps could be
erected in Cass County for from $150,
000 to $200,000, wh^ch was received in
the mail today. The picture shows a
very handsome building and reflects
the good taste and substantial character
of the chairman in his selection.
For temporary quarters the board has
the refusal of the Porritt building on
N. P. Avenue. The morning hours were
spent in a conference with Architect
George Hancock regarding the probable
cost of remodeling'the interior of the
building and nutting in a number of ex
tra vaults. This is the only building
the commissioners have
in
temporary quarters, and
view for
it is-quite
that it will be -secured.

zf?* USING ASHES. '. C-:V
'Afijv.'
Valley City Times-Record: Quite
number-of our citizens who have heat
ing plants in their residences' are ex
perimentally attempting to burn the
ashes which afre left from the furnace
fire. The theory is that if the ashes are
dampened witty \yater and spread over a
good bed of coals the fire will last
longer and that all the coal which is
shaken down with the ashes will be
consumed. The impression seems to
be that while wet ashes may be all right
to bank a fire with at night, as a regu
lar diet for a hard coal fire they are
not entirely a success.
FREQUENCY OF LAWBREAKING.
Cleveland Leader: Whether it is true
or not that crime is more common than
usual and more deadly, the most opti
mistic American cannot deny that law
breaking of the most serious nature is
terribly frequent and the defense of so
ciety against criminals both difficult and
very costly in many ways. There is little
hope of improventent .unless the admin
istration of the laws can be made more
effective, prompt and sure. Justice must
be given more power, and the penalties
of crime must be inflicted more quickly,
Jt^jre inflexibly and with less hesitation.
ALDRICB AN ATHLETE
There is not a more athletic figure in
all the senate 'than that of Mr. Aldrich
of Rhode Island. He is always trained
down to fighting weight his step is as
quick and elastic as a boy's his bearing
that of a muscular man. So easily active
and unconsciously strong Is the Rhode
Islander that there is a fascination in
watching him on the senate floor. The
secret is said to be his devotion to the
ancient game of golf. Near his resi
dence in Providence he possesses ex
pansive acres on which are his own pri
vate links. Many a morning during the
long summer and autumn months finds
him bright and early whacking the elu
sive ball and chasing it up hill and down
dale.
ABOUT "JADAM" BEDE.*:
"Jadam" Bede, the new representative
from Duluth, his linguistic as well as
political attainments^ He-has an elo
quent mastery of English, which his
popularity as an oratpr proves. He has
picked* up a little of tffe Swedish lan
guage, which is decidedly useful to him
in campaign time. Minnesota has nu
merous Swedish voters. In Washing
tqn this winter Mr:' Bede is putting in
all his spare time studying* the pure
and melodious Castiiian. This is be
cause he is looking forward to 3 visit
in 'the Philippines. He prefers to be
able to do his own'taiking with thejia
dvt races when be touches the shores
on the other side of the world.

SITUATION IS THREATENING.
Arrival of PIre Bagine Has Embarrassed Condi*
ttaiiiat Fire Station.
The little steamer to be used by the
fire department pending the arrival of
the i.ooo-gallon engine recently con
tracted for by. Mayor Sweet arrived in
the city tast'night, and is being placed
in position at fire headquarters.
The arrival of the engine has em
barrassed matters considerably around
the fire house, and1 significent murmur
ings are to be heard, which if not sooth
ingly appeased are liable to cause a dis
ruption of the entire volunteer service of
the city. To install the engine it is
necessary to subordinate one of the hose
carriages, and place it in the emergency
list.
It is stated that it is the intention
of Chief Sutherland to use the team,
which for a number of years past has
drawn the hose truck, belonging to' the
Continental company on the new engine.
In this event the truck will be taken

Another theory is that the Yerx*

the Continental team transferred to the

either of these arrangements are carried
out the Continentals will be left without
a team to pull their apparatus^nd will
be practically put out of the fire fight

The city has one extra horse. It has
been suggested that the city purchase
a mate for this animal and rent tempor-.
ary quarters in some other part of the'
city for the engine. This would materr
ially enhance the city's fire protection
and would in a measure satisfy the vol*
unteers.
In the absence of the authority to
organize a paidr fire department, which
would relieve the present embarrass
ment, Chief Sutherland is considerably
puzzled as to the best course to pur
sue, and the city is liable at any mo»-:
ment to be without fire fighters.
