HOME TRADE GOOD ENOUGH.

The results Of an investigation by a
legislative committee Of the manage
ment OF the Rochester insane asylum
seem to show the need Of change of
policy and Of methods at that institu-
ton. We refer now, not to the pur-
chase OF large quantities of certain
commodities that seem to point in the
direction of extravaganza, although
that, too. demands attention, but more
particularly to the policy of buying
outside the state articles that could be
purchased from our own dealers on
equally advantageous terms. For this
there seems to be no reasonable ex-
cuse. We are not Of those who believe
that it is wise or right to tax the peo-
pie a large sum of money in order to
buy high priced articles at home in
the place of cheaper articles to be had
abroad. But when the conditions are
equal and the domestic and foreign
products are upon the market at sub
stantially the same price, to prefer the
latter over the former is to discrimi-
nate deliber ately against our friends
and our own interests.

NEW NORMAL IDEA
STATE BOARD WILL, MEET TfltcS-
DAY NEXT To PLAN CONTIN-
UOUS SESSIONS
AT WlN0NA AND MANKATO
AZ WILL GIVE THE POOR COUNTRY
TEACHERS A CHANCE TO
LEARN.
MAI BE EXTENDED,
If 1t Proves Successful. So A. "a In
cIude the Other Normal
Schools,

An important change in the system OF
the state institutions was directed ar
the session of the legislature iuss
closed, the full advantages Of which
have not yet been fully exploited.
This is in reference to the change in
the course of study Of the state normal
SCHOOLS, which is to be tried at the Wi
mona and Mankato schools during the
next two years, and which. if it proves
successful, will no doubt be extended
to the ST. Cloud and Moorhead schools
by the next session of the legislature.
The state normal school board will
meet at the capitol Tuesday next to
decide upon the details for the adop-
ton OF the new scheme, which is aimed
TO make the normal schools more than
ever an institution for the education
OF those who are not abundantly rich.
and, perhaps, in part, at least. to con-
vert to friendly position those who
nave an antipathy for the normal
school system as at present existing.
1t is hoped to make an elastic sys-
tenn, 50 that the demands Of the public
can be met, so far as possible. without
damage to the discipline Of the schools
heretofore the normal school year
has been divided into three terms The
proposed plan will make it's sessions
at the two schools named continuous
and consisting of four terms per year
1T will not be necessary for students
however, to attend all these terms
and diplomas will be granted as soon
as the student has completed tina
course, without regard to number Of
terms that he or she may have at
tended In any one year The continu-
Gus session will permit those teachers
VINO nave vacations in summer to pur-
sue their education al these schools
during such vacation, thus enabling
them to earn their entire years salary
and, at the same time, give them an
opportunity to rise in their adopted
vocation.
Prof. w. w. Pendergast, state SUPER
intendent of public instruction. stated
yesterday that the details Of the plan
had not been entirely perfected, and
that the purpose Of the board meeting
next week was to definitely outline the
work. The legislature has appropriate
ed the money for the trial Of the contin-
uous session idea at the two schools
in the southern part Of the state, and
an effort was made to secure a similar
appropriation for the MoOrhead school
but it failed Of passage.
