Teacher Complete Thar Month d
Hard Study.

| t--~- " &HsSY
At noon today the normal institute
concluded one Of the most successful
sessions in the history Of the county.
The morning was devoted to reviews
Of class work and at II o'clock all
gathered in the assembly room where
Prof. Wilkinson answered questions
and final exercises took place.
Prof. Wilkinson and Prof. Cook
made brief farewell talks expressing
their appreciation Of the institute
work. Supt. Shirk made announce
ments for examination on Friday, the
work Of next year, the trip to Denver
and the lecture Of DR.. Hinsdale.
The committee to arrange a system
Of district institutes reported the fol-
lowing plan which was adopted:
That the county be divided into
three districts, all east Of range 2,
and south Of the river constituting
the southeast section, and all west Of
range and south Of the river, the
southwest section.
That each teacher pay ten cents for
his dinner, the proceeds to 60 into
the library fund Of the district in
which the meeting is held, and that
the teacher in charge be general over
seer.
That a committee of three be ap-
pointed to draft constitution and
bylaws for the various districts, said
constitution to be presented at the
first meeting Of each district for adop-
ton.
That the county superintendent ap-
point q committee Of three to make
program and select place for the
first meeting for each district.
Prof. Cook, A. Young and Anna
Sandborn were appointed this com.
mittee.
Meetings are to be held monthly in
each district. This is an excellent
system and each district will receive
solid benefit. Reading Circles will
continue as before.
The institute was one Of which the
county and Supt. Shirk may well be
proud. 1t has been marked by a
strong personal interest in methods
and as larger percentage than ever
before Of the attendants held certif-
Gates, preparation for examination
was little considered.
Conductor j. N. Wilkinson is one
Of the most talented educators in the
west. His work has been character
lied by a forceiulness and enthusiasm
that has done the teachers good.
Prof. 5. M. Cook and Prof. L, H.
Wishard, his assistants, are too well
known to require mention. Their
institute work is always worthy Of
praise and this year they accom-
plished results more practical and
helpful than ever.
Mr.. Arthur Young, teacher OF pen
manship, has won hearty commenda-
ton from all for his thorough, skillful
work. He is one Of the most promis-
ing Of Dickinson's teachers and will
rise to higher things. Mr.. Young has
furnished the REFLEcroR's excellent
normal reports previous to this issue
and has proved himself good writer
in more senses than one.
The model department was a sue
cess. Prof. Hisey gave the teachers
many new ideas and Misses Humble,
Brown and Grosser did
their work well throughout.

HAWAIIAN AFFAIRS.


Washington. March 21.-Late press
advlces here from Hawaii state that
Charles u. Wilson. confidential adviser
of the eX-queen; John Colburn, one OF
her cabinet at the time she was de-
posed; Antonio Rose, ex-attorney gem
eral, and John Richardson, formerly on
the queens stan, all of them prominent
Royalists, have taken part in forming
an annexation club among the native
Hawailans, This Is regarded as a
declaration among the chief Royalists
that the monarchy is dead for all the
time.
At a recent meeting In Honolulu
these prominent Royalsts look part in
forming 4 constitution and articles Of
belief. These state
/. We believe that the republican
form of government has come to stay
in these islands,
2. We believe that every person
should assist the government In the
carrying out of its policy OF political
annexation OF these Islands to the
United States.
The third article declares that the
present Dole government secures lib
erty, security. free speech and free
press, restriction OF Asiatlc emigration
and cable communication. The consti-
tuition restricts members OF the new
organization to having been born In
Hawaii.
There were no fresh developments
today concerning the demands for
Minister Thurston's recall. All parties
maintain silence. The next step. It is
presumed, will be action by Hawaii on
the request of Secretary Gresham.

ANOTHER VETO.


Austin, Tex, March Ex-Governor
Culberson sent in another ringing veto
this morning and hit the nail squarely
on the head. The veto message Is as
follows:
To the House of Representatives.:
House concurrent resolution No. 10 is
herewith returned without approval.
The facts necessary to a proper under
standing of the resolution and this
communication are that as provided
by article 1894 Of the Revised Statutes
the printing board entered into con-
tract with the present public printers
TO print the Daily Record Of the lesls-
lature and the Legislative Journal In
BREWER type at cost Of "A cents per
1000 ems. This contract has been yio-
lated by the public printers. The work
is done by machine, which greatly re-
duces the cost TO the printers, and the
type Is therefore mlnion and not bre-
vier as required by the contract.
The resolution provides that the leg
stature accepts the Record and Jour
nal In the style and type now being
used and authorizes the printing board
10 accept and pay for them; provided,
the total cost shall not exceed the cost
In BREWER measurement. If 1t be con-
coded that a statute should or may be
repealed or dlsregarded by a concur
rent resolution, direct and material loss
TO the state viii follow the adoption Of
this resolution, II observed by the
printing board. and that too when the
contract has been violated by the prin-
ters. AS has been stated. the contract
Is for BREWER type at A cents per 100
ems. With BREWER measurement au-
thorized by this resolution. though the
type be minion. there Will be a saving
to the state Of about 20 per cent Of the
price that would have been paid had
the contract been complied with. But
the rule OF law Is that where a con-
tract has been departed from, compen-
sation. IL paid at all, Is measured by
the reasonable value Of the work done
regardless of the contract. According
to the estimate OF the expert printer
engaged by the state the value of the
work aS done by machine is % cents
per 1000 ems as against A cents II done
under the contract. a reduction OF 10
cents per thousand ems. This would
amount to a reduction Of about 40 per
cent, and consequently. the average
loss to the state II the resolution be-
comes effective would be % per cent.
