The first of a series Of meetings be-
tween Superintendent Cooper and the
public school teachers to arrange for
the adjustment Of the shortened school
years work was held yesterday after
noon at the superintendent Office. The
High school teaching corps was pres
ent at yesterdays meeting and the dis
cussi0n was upon arrangements for
suiting plans of instruction to the
emergencies arising from enforced va
cation and the shortened year.
1t was agreed that unless the work OF
the present year could be completed
much dissatisfaction, annoyance and
embarrassment would result, not only
to pupils. parents and TEACHERS, but 10
the school system, and sal present eX-
pressed themselves as willing to do
their utmost to avert disastrous cOnse-
quences.
There was no difference Of opinion
as to the inability of classes TO fit them
selves for doing next years work IL
the year is cut short three weeks at
the close, in addition to the loss Of
three weeks of enforced vacation.
Can Do the Work.
When Superintendent Cooper asked
of each teacher whether the probable
ties favor preparing the pupils for en-
terance upon the work next year and
the senior class for graduation. If no
more time is lost from the nine months
originally planned for, all agreed that
it might be done.
After the meeting the superintendent
expressed the hope that something
might be done to avert the congestion
of the most vital things at the end Of
this years work, and to provide against
such undesirable conditions next year.
superintendent Cooper proposes that ali
pupils shall go on with their work when
schools reopen. But just what will be
done to relieve the strain cannot be told
until after the meetings of this week,
and then the superintendent viii issue
an address to school pupils and pat
TOns.

TROUBLE FOR HAMMOND.
Great Uneasiness In Lannan Mans
Camp.

O+tdI DHeaSlneSS In Lannan E1an' S
Camp.
Hammond still seems certain Of the
Republican nomination for congress,
although one Of the shrewdest politi-
clans in the city, a man old il the poll
tics Of the state, said yesterday that
the secretary Of state is not as strong
now as he was one week ago. There is
porting ard counter plotting going on
behind closed doors.
The suggestion that Reed Smoot is to
run Tor governor next fall comes from
one Of HammOnd's influential friends
ana smells of a scheme to sidetrack
the Provo statesman. The statement
comes from another that Mr. Smoot
on MS return from the east, will issue
a manifesto saying that under no cir
cumstances viii he be a candidate for
congress.
These, taken together, would indicate
nervousness in the Hammond camp.
At the same time those who get the
straight tips that percolate down from
EoSS Lannan through Pratt and F.ich-
nor, swear without ceasing that Ham
mond Is the man. They have not for
gotten the events leading up to the
naming Of Ezra Thompson for mayor
last fall.
