WOULD HOLD THEIR NORMAL.
People of Drain Object to Giving Up
Their Training School.

The people of the beautiful little
city of Drain object seriously to being
made a scapegoat in the matter of
the disposition of the normal school
question by the legislature. says the
Salem Statesman.
They claim the oregon State Nor
mai school at Drain has done better
than any of the others, for the means
IL had to work with. 1t has gradual
the others, for the money appropri-
ated--that is, it has cost the state
less per capita to train teachers there
than at any of the other normal
schools
They claim. too, that they have been
hampered by not having dormitory.
and they contend that in the place of
cutting them off and using them as
a scapegoat, in justice to the import
ance of the work that has been car
ried on there, they should have a
dormitory provided for. and that the
work should be properly taken care
OF, for the good of the educational in
terests of that part of the state.
Senator Reed was instrumental in
having the normal school at Drain
established and the record of that in
stitution up to the present time has
justified the wisdom of this leading
Southern oregon man, who was
drowned while working for the good
of his section of the state.
Drain is one of the most beautiful
little cities of the state, nesting in a
rich valley few miles south of the
Lane county line, and surrounded by
"a grand growing country. a better
site for n normal school could not
have been selected. 1t would be too
bad, say the people of that section,
to lose advantage of the work that
has been so well done. the founda-
tions having been laid for a great in
stitution. destined to play an import
ant part in the educational progress
of this state.

In view of the number of cases of
scarlet fever now in the city, the ques-
ton of the citys sanitary condition
From the sewer inspector it was
learned this morning that the con-
dition is far from being an ideal one,
and in some measure this may ac-
count for the present epidemic of dis
ease.
According to w. r. Withee, sewer
inspector, there are scores of houses
within the sewer limit that are still
unconnected, and where the SANTA
tion is bad. Practically all of these
houses are old ones, according to
Mr.. Withee, as the new dwellings,
have been provided with sewer con-
hections before being occupied. How
ever, some very good residences are
in the unsanitary list; in fact, most
of the derelict ones, according to Mr..
Withee, are people who can well af-
ford to stand the expense of MAX
ing the sewer connection, but so far
have been too parsimonious or too
class of people the inspector declares
he has had but little trouble, as they
have all obeyed the mandate as
promptly as possible, believing that
if they refused to do so. or were neg
ligent, they would be prosecuted.
Some of the most unsanitary places
in the city, according to Mr. Withee,
are to be found near the business
section. where the plumbing is old
and defective,
During the winter but little has
been done toward compelling tardy
property owners to connect with the
sewer; but now, with the approach of
spring. the work is to be pushed with
all vigor. and slothful householders
who have neglected to protect the
health of their families by complying
with the sewer ordinance will find
themselves confronted with an i'm
placable sewer inspector.
