We yield nearly all of our editorial
space this week to expressions of the
Vermont press and leading individuals
called out by the report of the Normal
school commission. While these do
not include much that has appeared
bearing on the subject, they represent
fairly the divergent views held. 1t
will be noted that instead of support
ing the commission in favoring to-
tai adjustment of the system, the
prevalent sentiment seems to be to
make it more efficient. This may
mean larger appropriation, different
method of supervision or a reduction
in the number of the schools from
three to two or one. 1t is safe to con-
clude that instead of giving up the
system as a bad job the state will make
an effort to improve it.

THE NORMAL SCHOOLS.
A CrnicnI Democrntic Yiew.

from the Brattleboro Reformnr.l
Thus far all the suggestions of re-
form that come from the Republican
misrulers of the state take the form Of
the report against the normal schools
and a threat to abolish the railroad
commission. OF course whatever is
done will be just what ought MOTTO be
done. The ring that has now got con-
troll of Vermont Republican politics
naturally will want TO get rid OF the
railroad commission. 1t managed
with the aid of Speaker Josiah Grout
to make it powerless and useless
body in the beginning; but there is
constant danger if it is allowed to eX-
list that it may be good for something
sometime. 1t is quite probable that
the normal schools are not giving sat
isfactory work for the reason that be-
ing divided into three, there is not
strength enough TO any; but the way
to cure that is TO reorganize and con-
centrate forces To abolish them en- 3.
tirely would be step backward to
barbarism as would be also the killing
of the railroad commission. But just
such backward steps are all we may
expect in the way of economy while
all the avenues of plumber in court ex-
penses, etc, will be kept wide open
and opened still wider. just watch
and see If that isn't the net result at
the end of the next session.

Make The system Adennnte.


We shall be surprised if some Of the
gentlemen, who have abored so earn.
estly to bring the normal schools to
their present state of efficiency under
the limitations forced upon them by
the niggardly way in which the state
has contributed to their support, do
not make a reply to some of the state
ments embodied in this report. For
instance, is il true that ''the work of
these schools is confined chiefly to the
usual studies of our common schools?"
The writer has visited the classes in
two of these schools and found in one
of them at least, the one at Randolph,
a course in geometry, algebra. botany.
mineralogy, methods of education and
other subjects not usually pursued in
"our common schools"
Other statements OF the report seem
to be equally vulnerable. In particu-
lar the conclusion that because ''there
is no adequate system of training
teachers, therefore, the normal sys.
tenn of the state ought to be abolished.
appears to be MN se7gitUr. The
legitimate conclusion would seem to
be: Make the system adequate.

columns, has received less than it
proper share of attention. The sub
iect is an important one. II will oc
cupy some considerable share of tho
attention of the legislature; and it is
to be hoped that wise and intelligent
action will be taken upon it.
The commissioners report that there
is no uniform system of teaching OF
training in the three normal schools
at johnson, Randolph and Castleton;
that the pupils in them come chiefly
from the respective localities; that the
work in them is confined chiefly TO
the studies usually pursued in our
/ common schools; and that the teach
ers trained in the normal schools do
not command higher pay than those
/ trained in the high schools and acad-
emies; that the normal schools are in
| ferior TO those of our neighboring
states; that the normal schools of Ner-
mont are not in close contact with our
public school system; and that the
state has little control over them as
respects methods.
The commissioners reach the con-
illusions that we have no adequate sys-
TEN for the training of teachers in
Vermont; that the normal schools are
no more entitled to state all than the
academies and good central schools in
the state; that the present normal sys-
TEN should be abolished.
Tables embodied in the report show
that in the past seven years, the state
has expended $4,000 on the three
normal schools; that the graduates
from them cost the state, on an aver
age, 1929 each, per year; and that
something over half of the graduates
from each are from the vicinity of the
school.
The commissioners, Messrs. Arnold,
kenfeld, Dean, Bingham and Rich,
are gentlemen of intelligence and
character. They have,it is presumed.
given careful and unbiased attention
to the subject committed to them; and
we accept their statements and con-
illusions as undoubtedly correct.
The resolution authorizing the APP
pointment of thecommission provides
that if the conn toner's believe that
a single normal sat.ool, directly under
the control of the state, would best
subserve the cause Of public school ed
ucaiion, they are 10 prepare a bill for
the establishment Of such a school and
embody il in their report. They, how
ever, express no opinion on the SUBJ
iect ola single normal school. and no
bill for such school Is embodied in
the report. Perhaps the commissions
ers believe that the best thing to be
done is TO do away with tho present
inadequate and largely useless system
of normal schools; and that when this
is accomplished, the state can start
airesh, on some better plan, to be de-
vised by the legislature.
We have long been OF the opinion
that our system CT three weak and in
adequate schools, called normal but
hardly entitled to the name. was
waste of the state money. We also
believe that the state should establish |
one first-class normal school for the |
training of teachers. And we shall
have more to say on the subject anoth-
err day.

When the white people first came

When the white people first came
among the Nez Perces Indians, horse
stealing was the highest crime known
to the tribal laws. The penalty for this
Offense was death The statutes of the
United States recognized the Indian
laws, even to the execution of the
death penalty. Some time during the
'6Os an Indian stole two horses from
Joe Craig, a well known character on
the reservation. and tried to escape out
OF the country. Joe was half-breed,
noted for his firmpess and courage.
The loss of the horses aroused him
thoroughly and he started in pursuit
of the thief without loss of time. The
Indian was Overtaken and captured
near Marengo. and forced to return
with the owner of the horses to the
reservation. The thief covered before
his captor like whipped cur. He had
no Will of his own, but submitted to
every command, even to following to
what he knew to be certain death. He
followed Joe Craig to the reservation
line, when that seif-appOlnted officer
took 1t upon himself to be All execu.
TONER too. He seized the thief by the
long hair with one hand and cut his
throat with the other, leaving the vic-
tim dead in the trail. Craig was ar
rested and brought to Lewiston for
trial. Hon. Alonzo Leland defended
him and be was acquitted upon the
plea that he had simply executed a
tribal law against horse stealing.
