is READY TO TAKE
UP CANVASS AGAIN
Secretary Brown Back in Field
After Short Respite for
Xmas Holidays.
PROSPECTS ARE BRIGHT
BUSINESS MEN NOW RELIEVED
OF HOLIDAY RUSH WILL BE
APPEALED TO AND ARE ExPEC-
TED TO RESPOND LITERALLY.

Secretary Brown, the boomer" of
field again after a short respite for
Christmas and he wears the old smile
of confidence which has characteriz-
ed him since the local battle begun.
Secretary Brown is laying plans to
start the ball rolling again after Janu-
airy 1, with an impetus which will car
ry it over every obstacle until sue
cess is finally reached. Up to the
present time the " NJ c. A. promo
tiers are highly eIated over the sue
cess that has been achieved and
they anticipate that subscriptions to
the building fund will be reported
much fore rapidly after the holi-
days than before.
Many business men who have
shown disposition to put their
shoulders to the wheel and assist in
the field work have been unable to
give time to the enterprise until bust
ness cares became less pressing. The
opportunity will soon be here and
much is expected from this phase of
the movement Former Richmond
citizens, who, though living elsewhere
still cherish a warm regard for the
city of their nativity, will be invited
to subscribe to the fund and it is said
that there will be numerous contribu-
lions from such sources
Secretary Brown yesterday left at
Ell Paso, (Tex) Herald, of recent
date, which gives an interesting ac-
count of the progress there to raise
100000 for Y; M. c. A. building.
Success is browning the efforts of the
Texan, and the carrier boys of the
Herald have up to date raised $3.50.

MANDS OF THE TEACHERS
MISS TEST ON PROGRAM.

Indianapolis, Dec. 81 fSpl)-The
ers' Association began here today I'M
der favorable conditions, with the ex-
ception of the weather. which was
anything but suggestive of the glad
holiday season. The teachers were
brim full of enthusiasm. however. the
salary question being uppermost in
their minds
B. f. Moore, of Marion, president of
the association. and also chairman
of the commission appointed by Gov
ernor Hanly to investigate salary and
other legislation at the coming session
of the General Assembly, declared
that he and the other officers of the
association are full of encouragement
All Favor Higher Salaries.
I'VE hear nothing but the most IA
vorable sentiment" he said. land look
for the same sort of action. | have
talked with a great number of legislat-
ors, and all have expressed themselves
in favor of having salaries of teachers
increased.
1T is beginning to be understood
that the teachers have been late in re-
ceiving recognition on this question.
While it is true that there has been
slight increase in compensation within
the last ten years it does not compare
with the increase in the cost of living"
Mr.. Moore retires as president at
this session, the custom of the associa-
ton forbidding the reelection of its
officers. Little discussion is heard of
possible candidates for his position

fees Saturday. when the election will
close the work of the gathering A
legislative committee will be elected,
also, to report on call during the Gen
eral Assembly or any other occasion.
Educational Commissions Report.
The report of the educational COM
mission was distributed among the
members of the association, and was
received eagerly. Favorable comment
on many of it's recommendations were
heard. Teachers in many cases were
surprised to learn that the failure of
the courts to assess and collect fines
was in part responsible for their pres
ent unsatisfactory salaries, and there
was much discussion of this.
Aside from the ques tion of salaries.
the reports suggestions as to a trans
fer law, the handling of State school
books by the trade instead of by coun-
ty superintendent, the recommends
ton of uniform course of study for
high schools, of county aid to teachers
institutes and for professional training
for teachers, were read with interest.
This afternoon there were numerous
sectional meetings held. Miss Alice
Test was assigned for a paper on the
program for the Classical Section. Her
subject was 'An Experiment in Teach
ing Latin in the Seventh and Eighth
Grades"

In that way much land has been
thrown open to the homesteader and
many dollars added to the reclamation
fund.
There is an uneXpended balance of
a little more than 100000 in the
fund, but, according to my informant
no new projects will be taken up for
the time being, indeed, not until the
returns are received from some of the
projects in Arizona, New Mexico and
Nevada that are about completed"
Another source of great worry to
the reclamation service has been the
labor problem, according to this Off
cial Wages are high, and labor is
scarce. This combination, it is said,
has caused the department to revise
not a few if it's estimates in building ir-
rigation projects in the west Should
this situation continue much longer
it is feared that work under the Carey
act will come to a standstill in a few
more years.
