The Normal.


Commencement Exercises Of Mary
Sharp College, written by Mr.. Dulin,
of this office. 1t was agreed that while
he attended the Mary Sharp sre should
attend the Normal. Monday and Tues
day are the two only days in the week
when our time is really needed in this
ofice--hence we have not been able to
do more than "step in for an hour or
two Mt the Normal each day. And
US We expect to say more next week
about the exercises, when time and space
will permit, We will just say this much
oR.hand now
There is q maxim in the Latin tongue
to the effect that poets are born, not
made. So, we think teachers are born
and if there ever were teachers bora,
Prof. j. W. Terrill il one. He tho
roughly understands the management OF
a school, and the proof Of his capacity
crops out in an examination as visibly
as the frees put forth their leaves in
Spring time. And he really makes
boys and young men more polite and
honorable and young ladies more re-
served and attractive, and all Of them
more ambitious, by his extraordinary
skill and brain-powcr in co-educating
them. We are not now speaking Of the
proficiency of the students in the several
departments controlled by Professors
Clark, Bledsoe, McIlheron, Mrs. Terrill,
Mrs. Gaines and Miss Terrill, but Of
Prot. Terrill's good judgment in knowing
how to manage and whom to get as as
sistants-;just as Napoleon knew, as if
by intuition, whom to select as his Mar
shals. And if a student ut the Normal
has sense enough to learn and does not
learn, it certainly is not for want of
thorough teaching and most unexccp-
tionable management. In matters OF
vious We feel competent to Judge, and in
things abstrusc we know that the teach
crs give unbounded opportunities to all
present to ask questions, and the stu
dents, if not ready in moment to cx-
plain, most frank y admit the fact. The
teachers allow no shutting, no evasion,
no deception, and they seem to have
made each student ashamed to not stand
upon his own merit. 1t is delightful to
witness the management.
But We have little room and little
time to spare this week. We will only
say that as tree is Judged by its fruits,
so we must judge school by its work.
According to this standard we are will
ing to assert that the Winchester Nor
NAL is school that will soon have 800
students instead of 300 and we hope
the acumen Of our people will lead them
to join in an effort to increase the ca
pacity for the reception of larger num-
Der Of students. There is no idle bread
eaten at the Normal. Work is done,
and there is no moment allowed for tar
diness. Everything moves as if by
clock-work. And the student has no
time to become wearied. There is a
splendid blending of physical and men
tai exercise. The mind and body are
kept improving in perfect unison. The
heart is kept pure and happy by music
and tender sentiment cautiously admiX-
ed with abstrusc studies. Go and see
for yourself.
/ After saying this for the Normal, VIC
most willingly add that We heartily en-,
dorse all that Mr.. ID. has said in regard
to the Mary Sharp, and but for want Of
time and space would say more.

In our paper this week we publish a
call for Convention of Franklin coun-
tv Democrats, that there may be an ex-
preston as to our choice for Governor.
We are very anxious for full meeting
on the 26th of next month, and We con-
clude, from many personal interviews
with influential men, that the meeting
will be largely attended, because the ex-
pected condition of crops at that time
will enable farmers and Others from ev-
cry district to attend. And it is their
duty to attend. The present Governor
of Tennessee is Franklin county man.
He is not an extremist in regard to the
State debt. He believes there are equi-
ties in behalf OF. the taxpayers. He
thinks, also, that justice should be done
the bondholdcrs. He was nominated
for Governor, without his solicitation,
at time most unauspicious, because the
clamor was just then ut white heat in
regard to the State debt. He was elect
ed as a compromise mana man who
was not extreme in his views, but bold
for the rights of the people. He has
made Governor of whom we may well
be proud. Nevertheless, he has politi-
cal enemies. He could not have per-
sonal enemies, because no man who
knows Albert s. Marks, as we have,
from his boyhood, could be his enemy.
He is brave, honest, charitable and in
telligent. He cannot, despite his desire
for harmony, be ruled or bought. Per
haps if the Nashville American could
rule him that paper would find less to
condemn in our Governors frank and
noble response to certain citizens OF
Williamson county, which we copy in
this issue. If the American can tell US
what to do, why not tell US and cease to
criticise? We tell you, there is 4 bug
under the chip Marks is not man
to be ruled. And he has done his duty
as Governor. He was the means OF
uniting the Democracy in the last guber'
Material race, and we believe he is the
rery man to unite the party again. Tie
is valiant for harmony and success in
the Democratic party as he was valian,
in the Confederate army, where he wor
the love of the brave soldiers he com
manded.

introduced us to the audience. We were indebted
to Mr.. Jas. Dwinell, an extensive farmer and stock

and were also much pleased with his earnest wife
and her evident interest in the suffrage cause
The meeting over we returned to Baker City,
well satisfied with the evenings adventure and
entertainment
On Saturday night we bade adeu TO our friends
at Mr.. Cleaver's hOspitable home, and took a room
at the hotel for a few hours rest and at midnight
were called by the watchman to go aboard the
stage, bound Unionward. The weather had sensi-
bly, moderated, and the long ride was not an un-
comfortably cold one. A few miles out from
Baker City the snow grew deep, and the sidelong
roads were so slippery that the great coach would
often sue until just on the point Of upsetting on
the hillside, but would always fetch up in the
'nick of time'' and save us from a smash-up At
half-past five we halted at North Powder station
for breakfast, and were greeted by good fire and
excellent meal at the waysde inn of Mr.. and Mrs.
Harlan. Mrs. II. ought to teach a cooking school
for the benefit of dyspeptic travellers. After
breakfast we passed grist-mill belonging to Mr..
James Wech, of North Powder station, and drove
on past fine farms for fifteen miles further. Then
we entered the I.add Hill pass, and came down
into Grand Ronde Valley to the town of Union by
route easy Of descent and so different from the
old emigrant road of -, eighteen miles below,
that it was difficult TO realize that the valley
was the same that greeted our childhood's gaze in
the long ago when, after perilous ride adown
the rocky ridges, our sire's patient oxen had
plOdded wearily over the bunch-grass plain in
search Of Western Oregon.
At the head Of this beautiful Grand Ronde Val
ley sits the thriving town of Union, which we see
at glance has improved wonderfully in the past
few years. y commodious school-house, court
house and new NJ. +. church have been added
to its public buildings and several fine brick

Neal Dow, the Prohibition candidate for the

resenatives of the liquor traffic and interests are
laughing at the meagernesss Of his support. But
they may rest assured that this vote is no index
Of the mass of people arrayed against them.
When Mr.. Dow was nominated, il was known
that he had no chance Of success and that all
votes thrown for him would be practically wasted

ballots either for Hancock or Garfield-mostly
for the latter-and the represent men who
realized that stand must be made and who voted
as their principles directed them. In Maine there
are several times that number of Prohibitionists,
and the same is true of several other Eastern
States. In Kansas and Iowa prohibtory amend

former State by 10000 majority. The liquor mer-
chants and saloOn-keepers do not even smile at
these results. In several other States strength
equal to that i'm Kansas would be developed il
there could be a fair vote on the liquor question

John Sharp, one of the Mormon Bishops, is now
in New York City. In an interview, he said
the demise of Brigham Young had not altered
the Mormon policy; that the twelve apostles who
became the head of the church at his death have
in no way abridged their own powers by electing
Taylor as prophet; that mot only is pOlygamy a,
part of the Mormon faith, but it is obligatory, and
those who say otherwise are not true Mormons or
do not know what they are talking about" This
is enough to arouse the Ladies' Anti-Polygamy
