long hearings and the delay Of other business No dsre

be, tor the time, the absorbing topic vigorous effort
is making TO the reGstablshment of the State

islature will probably take favorable action.
The Committee Education had before ii this p.

urged that the rate OF interest on loans from the school
urged that giving six per cent the avas OF the fund
