Beautiful Snow.

Snow began falling esrlY this morning
and has continued all day. The faxes
are not large; but they are compact, and
appear as though they have come to stay
This is the proper season for winter, and
our people will be satisfied TO have cold
weather this month and an early spring
The frown OF winter that has been suf
fered in the last part OF February Is mol
at all agreeable. 1t appears more appro-
pirate for the new ear to be ushered IN
with snow and frost, and then for the old
man OF the seasons to give way, after a
few weeks of uninterrupted sovereignty,
to budding, blLshlng spring We hope 1t
will be so this year, and that February
will be month OF wild flowers. Cattle
men are we'll provided with feed, and a
heavy fall of snow will cause no loss of
livestock, as they are now IN good condl
ton and can keep their flesh much better
than later in the season.

At the State Teachers Institute we were
pleased to hear from committee on pro-

the privii, ge to grant certificates by our
normal schools be taken away ard that all
VINO teach ID the sta.e of Oregon be sub
iected to the same ordeal. These "Fly up
the cIe-k institutions" have for some years
been pampeIed by the state, without any
just claims of being state nsti tutIons. Tue
our legislators have voted them some money
and granted them privileges. Yet VINO is
1t that believes that either the privilege or
the money allowed Is founded in exact
Justice, bat We a means to an end; and
that end was a supply OF teachers eduoated
up to a reasonable standard.
We now hear the cry that the supply OF
teachers is beyond the demand Where did
this over supply come from? Monmouth.

rslatiye privileges when it is manifest that
they are not public neces itl!
To the last question We. say, No. There
privil .ged schools have advertised them

pense or t ff ,rt they have put forth, snd
frem the start the law has been mischievous

not suffered from this ring ocrscy.
With much respect for our ex state school
superintendent, who no doubt recommended
the expenditure OF money on these institu-

them, we must saw that the power of Ger

of the insti' buttons AS state normal schools

Text Book Legislation.
Editor TIYss- MouSTAINKsk

| Perhaps there is no question of more vital
Importance to the people of Oregon than
| the one to determine what text hooks shall
| be used in our schools. The cry of uniform.
rtv gave US our present law; law that has
given Us some of the poorest text bo,ks
that could possibly b, found; law that has
| demonstrate its eorrupting iuh lence upon
those whose duty it is to execute it.
Il this age of dollars and cents it is folly
for the peorle to delegate to forty or fifty
men power that shall d.termiue the ex-
penditure of millions when it involves
certain gain IF from 40 to 500 per cent.
There is perhaps no one thing in our ma
tion that the peopl, 10 general are so much
imposed upon as this. A book OF from loo
to 200 pages in ordinary binding represents
a cost OF very few cents; an addition of
more pages makes more ,ost and calls for
6rmer binding. But am safe in saying no
school b ok IN general use represents an
original cost of 90 cents.
No wonder then that book agents have
bsen around, and no wonder that crv of
corruption aud a general hubbub has dis
turhed booksellers for the p,st few months.
A school text book in Oregon, like a
United States senatorship, is chosen by
few, and like the senatorship represents
much profit and honor. The present choice
will depend upon a maj ,rity of al votes or
81. These Al ought to be good, sound, in
corruptIble oisizsns; so ought all voters, but
we know they are not. Book publishers
and agents ought not TO WELLS oorrupting
influence; but tney do, and thereby hangs
many ''tales" Of scandal.
Now what shall be done! Ii uniformity
can be developed from diversity, then re-
peal our text book law. apd through the
tate board of education arran ye the topics
constituting a course for our com mon
schools, that will give uniformity and at
different xt books. Ado to this law
giving the distric's precinct or county the
right to adopt text books, then the work
will be uniform. throughout the state, and
the vexed text book que'tiou settled the
best possible way. AARON FRAZIER

daughter give her so much trouble,
was admirable. The characterize
ton reflects more than passing cred
it upon Miss Blancke, for the young
actress succeeded in completely hid
ing her own individuality while she
wore that of the old lady without
perceptible effort or strangeness.
This is the invariable test of the
true artist. So, too, did Mr.. Perry
contribute an excellent character bit
in the person of Dabney, the nervous
and excitable music teacher.
1t became apparent during the
early part of the stock season that
both Miss. Kate Blancke and Mr..
Perry possessed considera BILE talent.
but it remained for Mr.. Gillette's
farce to reveal the extent of. their
versatility by exhibiting them in
roles demanding the assumption of
distinct and-to them-foreign indi-
vidualities. Miss Crosman's deIinea-
ton of the gay opera singer was
surprisingly brilliant. Mr.. Fischer
fairly exuded the JUNCTION of Mr..
Bender, the susceptible and elderly
gallant, and Mr.. NeiH's impersona-
ton of Alfred Hastings was at all
times natural and refreshing. The
other characters were likewise in ca
pahle hands.
1t is matter of deep regret that
this organization of artists will dis
band at the end of the present week.
