Already, what The JOURNAL had to
say about the location here of a state
normal school is having its effect. Let
III representatives and senator elect be
encouraged by our citizens to look after
this matter, and We believe that the close
of the coming session of the legislature
will find the project we'll begun. There
is absolutely no single reason that We
know Of why the additional institution
(Which is certainly needed and in great
demandl should not be located right
here where so many railroads center.
There is no other place in all this north
ern Nebraska except Norfolk that
could begin to compare with Columbus,
and that already has one state institu-
ton, SO would not be seriously thought
Of for this one. Let a splendid, free
public library be fully equipped and put
in frst-class running order by the city,
and that n fact alone, in connection
with all our conceded other advantages,
will do much towards securing the state
normal school.

A special meeting of the board on the
suggestion of members Galley, Lehman
and Turner was convened at 4 o'clock
Friday afternoon to look into a case of
corporal punishment.
All members of the board were pres
ent, besides Sup't Williams, Principal
Weaver of the Third ward, Miss Ward,
teacher, and the complaining parent,
Mrs. Weddel.
Bert Weddel, the pupil in the CASE, is
a lad ten years of age, in attendance on
Miss Wards school.
The punishment which was specially
complained of was inflicted by Principal
Weaver.
Statements of all concerned were
heard at length by the board, after
which, on motion of Schupbach, Presi-
dent Henry was authorized to appoint a
competent physician of the city to ex-
anime the boy, and the board adjourned
to 4 o'clock the next day.
The board met again Saturday after
noon at 4 o'clock, as per adjournment,
the session lasting two hours.
DR.. Evans, physician appointed, made
his report in writing, which was read by
him and directed to be placed on file.
There was considerable discussion con-
corning the case which finally resulted
in the adoption of a resolution offered by
Schupbach, in substance approving of
the first punishment Onfiicted by the
teacher, Miss Ward, and Of the second
by Mr.. Weaver, principal, but censuring
Mr.. Weaver for the last infection, as
being too severe and might have been
obviated, and warning him against a
recurrence of such punishment.
Taylor moved to amend by striking
out the words after obviated, which was
not agreed to.
Taylor then offered a substitute en-
bodying his views, which was defeated
by a vote Of four to two.
The original motion for adoption of
the resolution presented by S~chupbach
was then adopted on a call o; ayes and
nays, resulting ayes, Galley, Lehman,
Schupbach and Turner: nays, Henry
and Taylor.
Supt. Williams was requested to con-
vey to Mr.. Weaver the sentiments of the
board. Adjourned.
