tire course. 1twould not be the object
of this bill to force these requirements
at once nron the teachers, but to place
the date sufficiently in the future to en-
able every teacher to be prepared to
meet the requirements. OF course, the
tendency of this bill would be to force
all teachers to take normal training.
and it would be good impetus to nor.
NAL schools aside from the matter of
state aid. We do not know. however,
that this plan will be reduced to bill,
or that it could be passed il it were.

BY the way, the editor of the REVIEW
has entered INTO an agreement for a
series of joint debates during the cam.
paign next fall with County Attorney
Sam V. O'Hare. The details have not
been arranged, but we suppose it will
be a "catch as catch can" contest, and
if Sam does not back out, and the PEG.

vegetables, we will agree to stand by

Mrs. j. 3. Romans, who has been
spending some time in Des Moines in
the interest of equal suffrage legisla-
ton, has gone to Washington City on
business of similar character, we un-
derstand. Mrs. Romans and Mrs.
Beldou of Sioux City have had this
work in charge during the present ses-
sion, and while they have been untiring
in their efforts, it does not now look as
if anything would be done.
The rejection of Colonel Rood as
member of the Board of Control. is
now having tendency to react upon
the senators who voted against HIM.
People are finding out about Col. Rood,
and the more they find out the better
they like him. We believe there are a
number of those who voted against him
who regret it already, and who would
not do it again.
We had an interesting conversation
last evening with Mr.. LATE Young, edi-
tor OF the Des Moines Capital. Mr..
Young has been in newspaper business
for many years, for nineteen years edit
ing the Atlantic Telegraph. Naturally.
conversation turned to newspaper work,
and we told Mr.. Young that the RE

nineteen years in Atlantic, he ran on
the Old credit system, and never was
able to make more than bare living

business people, to get out a bette,

Young said, in his epigramatic way
that he knew of no class of peonle
whose work was more arduous and
varied than that of "a country editor:
that they earned their money and
should get it, and that certainly they
should, run their business on such a
business basis that at the end of a wear
