Financial Showing For the Territorial
Schools For One Year.
The report of Territorial Superin-
tendent S N. Hopkins as president of
the Territorial Board of Education on
the Normal schools of Oklahoma for
the biennial period ending November
80, 1900 has been submitted to the
governor. AS the president OF each of
these institutions has made a full re-
port Of the institutions under his
charge. which report is covered In the
report of the superintendent Of public
instruction. the report just submitted
is devoted almost wholly TO fnan-
cial showing of the years operations.
The figures show for the period Gov

Normal OF s1Sl39.95 The Aiva Nor
mails expense account includes part
of the cost of constructing the build

school has been Increased from seven

faculty has been Increased from four
members 10 fourteen since December

mends the work Of all those employed
In these institutions. On the subject
OF appropriations the report says
THE one-half mill levy provided by
the last legislative assembly for the
running expenses for these institutions
Is, ordinarily, sufficient for the pur
pose. A portion Of the fund derived
from the one-half mill levy for the
Northwestern Normal school had tC
be expended 10 equip the building
For this reason the fund is not suifi

OF the present school year. In view o
this fact we would recommend TO tn
Sixth legislative assembly that Pre-
visions be made TO meet this end"

The Sixth legislative assembly of

thiving, bustling energetic, industri-
GUS and intelligent constituency Of
four hundred thousand people, enjoy
ing the blessings OF a more advanced
and enlightened civilization than ever
before experienced by any of the peo-

opportunity to impress itself upon the
pages of enduring history that has sell

a body Of representative citizens
charged with the high and important
function OF making laws for its gov

With high purpose and firm resolve
to realize and with our best endeayors

ed. let us proceed with determination
and hope that our efforts in behalf OF
wise and good government for our

ELECTION LAWS.

Our election laws are crude. ambig-
uous and generally unsatisfactory. In
case of a closely contested election
confusion OF construction would cause
an endless amount of trouble.
The Importance of securing fair and
honest elections and returns demands
that the whole machinery be revised
and a new law clear and definite in its
provisions should be enacted.
The present apportionment OF repre-
sentaton in your respective houses
was made by the Third legislative as
sembly, and was based upon the popu-
lation Of the territory as reported in
1894. which was 212.625 Greer coun-
ty was not part Of the territory at
that time, and the population of the
territory has almost doubled the in
crease being mostly in the western
counties The justice of new appor-
tionment will, | think, commend this
subject to your careful consideration.
