Hon. o. w. Robinson is by all
Means a Candidate for Office
Of Lieut.. Governor.
DENOUNCEs THE REPORT
Circulated In the Lower Penin-
sula That He Has
Withdrawn.

The following letter from Hon. o.
w. Robinson, of Chassell, to the
Detroit Tribune is self-explanatory
and should set at rest the rumors
that have been industriously cir
culated in the lower peninsula con-
cerning his stepping aside for Mr..
Oren, of the 500.
Mr.. Robinson is gentleman who
is in every respect qualified for the
dignified duties and high response
bilities .of the Office and is wholly
free from all political entanglements
and intrigues that might interfere
with proper discharge of these
duties. He is fair-minded man
whose judgment, ripened by years
of experience, is above the ordinary.
But we let his letter state the case.
1t is as follows:
To the Editor: | notice in the
Grand Rapids Herald an article
taken from The Tribune, which reads
in part as follows:
Lieutenant Governor Thomas B.
Dunstan of Hancock announced
months ago that he would not be a
candidate for a denomination and
there are indications that the Pin
gree support for this place will go
to ex-Speaker Garret ]. Dickema, of
Holland. Senator 0. w. Robinson
of the upper peninsula was mention
ed. but he stepped aside to make
way for the candidacy of H. M.
Oren of the 500, who wishes to be
attorney general.
1t is evident that The Tribune has
been misled by false reports cir
culated maliciously by some party
in the interest of Mr.. Oren for the
purpose of side-tracking me as an
upper peninsula candidate. am in
the race to a Lfinish, any reports to
the contrary Notwithstanding. l
have the best of assurances that l
will have the hearty support of my
own county (Houghton) and "a large
percentage of the upper peninsula
delegates to the state convention,
and also pledges from numerous
friends in the lower peninsula. The
report that | have stepped aside to
make room for the candidacy of Mr..
Oren is utterly false, without any
foundation of truth. | am in no
combine, and have therefore made
no bargains. | make this denial
in justice to my friends as well as to
myself, and | trust you will give it
as conspicuous place in your val
liable paper as was given to the false
report. o. w. ROBINSON.

Is 1t Right 7?

In looking over our long list oi
subscribers it is apparent that
about three hundred patrons who
have taken THE SENTINEL each week
and who are in arrears from two to
four years, seem to consider that
it is an honor for the publisher to
furnish them the paper, but we
frankly confess (after wasting
dollars worth of postage stamps in
sending out duns) that the publish
er will consider it far more honor
able If the aforesaid delinquents will
pay up. We have always been very
lenient, but patience has ceased to
be q virtue, and those who are
owing for the paper will confer a
great favor by remitting the
amount due. The date to which
subscribers have paid is printed on
the paper each week opposite the
name, and each person can
readily see how much they are in
arrears. Let us hear from you.

superintendent Hammond Sug-
gests Amendments
To Them.
A LARGER NORMAL SCHOOL
Thinks One Is Necessary in the
Upper Peninsula-Next Legis-
lature to Act.

Superintent of Public Instruction
Hammond will offer number of
amendments to the school laws at
the next legislative session, says
Lansing dispatch.
The first is that the term of Office
of county school commissioners be
increased from two to four years.
1t is recommended that in every
county having more than 100 schools
the commissioner be empowered to
employ clerk during the entire
school year at a salary not to exceed
81 for each school under supervision
of the commissioner. would enable
the commissioner to do far better
work in the field. The continued
distribution of the legislative manual
to every school district in the state
is recommended.
During the past year 81 1856 books
were added to the district Libraries
of the state. Supt. Hammond ad-
vocates the enactment of such laws
and amendments to the constitution
as will prevent the use of fine money
for anything except the purchase of
library books.
The fourth recommendation is that
law be enacted authorizing the
state board of education to grant
teachers certificate valid for three
years, renewable, and qualifying tie
holder to teach in all district schools
of the state having one department,
to those persons who have completed
the four years course at the Agri-
cultural college, thus rendering 1T
unnecessary for such persons to be
examined by the county commits
sioners.
The establishment of q normal
school. in the upper peninsula is
strongly urged by Supt. Hammond,
who says: Many a son and daugh-
ter of the upper peninsula farmer
would gladly go to "a normal school
were it not for the great distance to
be travelled. Their parents, who
are in humble circumstances, are in
terested in their children, but can
not afford to send them to Ypsilanti
or Mt. Pleasant. | would not urge
for the upper peninsula larger
normal school or one more extensive
in its courses than the one at Mt.
Pleasant y Such school would be
accessible by boat from Frankfort,
Charevoix, Mackinac City and
other points in the northern part of
the lower peninsula.
The question of establishing o
state normal school in the upper
peninsula has been argued several
times, and was brought before the
legislature about two years ago, but
no action was taken. That such an
institution is badly needed there is
no question, and it has been gener-
ally conceded that there is no more
central or appropriate location in
the upper peninsula than L'Anse.
