In the matter of encoura cement OF
teachers in the state of Iowa to take
the examination for state certificates
and to secure some one of the various
forms of state certificates, the state
board of educational examiners in ses-
sion here has taken stand that VIII
be of some help to the teachers. For
instance, the rules in regard to eXamin-
ations have been rigid in the past ana
no person not a graduate of college
or normal school or one who has mad
at least three years experience in
teaching was eligible to the examin-
ations The board has felt a long
time that this rule was shutting out
many worthy persons who have had
both college or normal training and
some experience in teaching. but who
have no diplomas. The board has de-
cided upon some modification that will
admit a large number to the examina-
tions. The board has also planned for
the examinations under the new law
which permit accredited high schools
and private academies to send their
graduates directly to the board for
examination for the 2year state GER
tificates, and every facility will be af-
forded these students to get the state
certificates. The state board is outlin-
ing a policy that will make it as easy
as possible to get into the examina-
tions.
Several good towns are after the
Fifty sixth regiment band or are being

referred all papers to Col. Humphrey,
who alone will decide where the band
for the regiment will be located.

EDITOR REGIsTER:-The much
talked of coal deal, that is claimed
to have been closed by Messrs
Fleming and Crowell. of Fairmont,
w. Va. we would infer from the
reading of the article. that the
writer or those who had it written,
meant to leave the impression, that
they alone had been the instiga-
ton of making said sale, thereby
casting reflection on one of our
own townsmen.
Now Mr.. Editor we believe in
giving credit to those who really
deserve it, with reference to this
matter. and feel confident that
should the merits of the case be
properly investigated the praise
wouldg go to the individual to whom
it really belongs.
I'personally know that our citi-
zen referred to, has given
his undivided time and attention
to this GOAL business for more
than two years, and a part
of the gentlemen interest
ed in the deal. would never
have known anything about the
coal had it not been for j. M.
Hensley. 1 also personally know,
by having seen the contract that
j. M. Hensley, sold this coal Is, 600
acres. more or less ON the 26th.,
day of November, 1902.
Now if the gentlemen referred
to have held the coal until now
and resold it again, we fail to see
the reason why some of these
parties should try to cast re-
Elections on the originator of this
deal. There has been considerable
merriment and comment on the
item of last week, among the peo-
pie generally of Mason County,
more especially those who are in
position to know the true circum-
stances in the case.
Editor we do not refer in any way
to Mr.. Fleming. While the
writer is not personally acquainted
with him, we understand from
Mr.. Hensley and others that Mr..
Fleming is an elegant,.gentlemen
