Trnchers Go Public Schonls

To he Editor Of ne DisDdch
The question as to what extent the
school laws Of Virginia give preference to
graduates OF the State Normal school over
other applicants 10 teach our public
schools isa question which has greatly
agltatcd the people of the State recently.
A case IN point; Misses A and are resi-
dents OF the same school district. Miss A
was principal Of the pub!ic grade q school
last session. She holds frst-grade GER
tihcate. but IL not "A normalite. She APP
plies for reappOintment for the approach
ing session. aud IL strongly endorsed for
efficiency and satisfactory conduct Of the
previous session by thir.y~two out of pos
sibiy thIrty-six patrons. representing
seycnty-eight out of eighty-three pupils,
who urge her reappointment.
Miss h ~ normal graduate, and does
not consult the patrons or speak TO them
on the subject Of teaching their children.
She IL gwen the appointment by the dis
trict trustees.

Tho Virginia Campaign Opening.
lUroShtpafOu Post

The Virginia campaign has been form
ally opened. and from the present time
up TO the second Tuesday in November we
will have daily reminders Of the fact that
there Is a political fight In progress across
he Potomac BY the action of the Repub-
lican managers that party has practically
abandoned the State for the present, with
the hope that the Populist party may
gather enough strength TO make a break
into the lines OF the Democracy. If this
can be done and the Virginia Democracy
becomes demoralized and disorganlzed as
IL was eight years ago there VIII be an
opportunity for the Republicans to step
in and organize their party on success
full lines, as there are very few who mag
inc that the Third party movement con-
talns many germs Of permanency
But the Virginia Democrats fully ap-
prec,ate the condition that confronts
them. and no stone will be left unturned
to prevent such a state Of affairs as their
opponents are anticipating. When the
Democratic Convention met at Richmond
last month It was practically unanimous
in its choice for governor, and, in fact,
before the convention met the campaign
for the election OF Col O'Ferral to the
governorship had been inaugurated The
only thing that at the present time seems
10 contribute any uncertainty TO the cam
paign is the sentiment OF the Virginians
on the financial question and an occasional
revolt growing out OF the distribution OF
Federal patronage.
In Col OFerralls opening speech he
seems TO haYe devoted the major portion
OF his time 10 the financial and tariff ques-
tions. The candidate declares himself to
be a bimetallist and cites the fact that he
voted for all of the proposed ratios while
the Wilson repeal bill was pending In the
House. For the first time In many years
Virginia finds herself engaged In a cam
paign without the State debt as an issue.
In fact there appears to be a scarcity OF
State issues, and very naturally the DEM
ocrats turn to national questions for fuel
for their oratorical fires
A perusal OF the remarks OF the speak
ers OF the Third party Indicate that they
have no concerted plan OF campaign, but
are simply determined TO talk hard times
and preach calamity. Jerry Simpson and
his political colleagues have thrived on
calamity and very naturally they are dis
posed to nourish and prolong the idea that
the country IL on the verge Of great mis-
fortunes and greatly in need of the care
of the Popuiistic physicians. II the Third
party wins its fight in Virginia tho coun-
try will be greatly surprised.
