BRANCH NORMAL.
It May be That the State Nor
NAL viii Not be Divided.
Clear Title Cannot be Obtained
TO Ft. Hays Reservation.
HOMESTEADERS THERE
How the State Normal School
Has Fought Division.
Held Out For 20 Years Against
UnfriendIy Legislation.

One of the acts of this legislature was
the establishment of a branch state nor
NAL school at Fort Hays on the aban-
doned military reservation. 1t is true
that there is a. string to the appropria-
tion, because it has been discovered that
about sixty homesteaders or squatters
are located on the reservation, and pro-
vision has beer made that none of the
money shall be available until the Unit
ed States gives clear title to the grant.
1t may be that this difficulty will be
Strengthened out, for the people in the
western part OF the state want the
school badly, and will exert every effort
to secure it.
It is interesting to note that this is
the first new normal school legislation
that has succeeded in Kansas in a quar-
ter of a century. Every legislature has
had a normal school proposition in some
part of the state to fight over, but none
could ever get through.
Sam Wood did the business in 1876, the
session that gained wide celebrity as the
'sretrenchment and reform legislature
Wood represented Chase county in the
house. There were numbers of the men
in the centennial year legislature besides
Sam Wood who became big men in the
state, and those still living retain prom
inence. Dudley Haskell, of Lawrence,
was speaker of the house, and some OF
the members were Judge Webb, of La
bette; p. T. Bonebrake, of Topeka; w.
A. Johnston, now an associate justice
of the supreme court; J. R. IalIlWel, OF
Cherokee; Ex-Governor George w. Click,
of Atchison; Judge Stillings. W. F.
Hackney of Cowley, and Judge Ansel R.
Clark.
Sam Wood led the famous normal
school fight in this legislature, and the
result was the saving Of $1,000 a year
at least to the state ever since. Leaven-
worth and Concordia- were both after
nornals. The rivalry was hot and the
lobbies strong. Sam Wood was on one
committee. and one only. It was called
the committee on retrenchment and re-
form. The normal controversy fell into
its hands, and when the contention came
out of the mill there was nothing left Of
it. In place of establishing branch
schools a reorganization Of the Emporia
normal school resulted and the legisla-
ture compelled a normal department to
be added to the state university The
work of Sam Woods retrenchmant and
reform committee has had the approval
of the people, for it has held good for
TWENTY-FIVE years
