When Senator, Courtright talks the
members OF the senate listen. And In
the matter Of the proposal to change
the educational system in order to put
the business 6f examining teachers
and issuing certificates to them in the
hands of the state board Of education
al examiners, taking 1t wholly out of
the hands of the county superintend-
ents, his speech had more to do with
the crystalization of the opposition
than any other thing. He studied the
bill carefully and was able to discuss
1t in detail. His objections were so
strong and his criticism so effective
that he made many votes against the
measure.
It proposed to take away from coun-
ty superintendents the right to exam
ing teachers for certificates, putting
that business in the hands of the state
superintendent and the state board of
educational examiners according to
fixed rule which required them to
mark answers to questions without ex-
ercising discretion as to the fitness of
the applicant to teach. At the same
time the bill proposed to increase the
salaries of the county superintendents
S240 a year, each. The bill gave to
graduates Of the higher educational in.
stitutions preference over the teach
ers unable to afford 1t and otherwise
seemed to Senator Courtright and 9TH
er senators to be discriminatory.
All Favor Purpose Of Bill.
There is a sentiment that the certifi-
Gates held by teachers ought to give
them the right to teach In any county
of the state instead of restricting them
to the county in which the certificate
is issued. Lawyers do not have to
pass examinations when they move
from one county to another Indeed
none of the members Of the profess
sions recognized and regulated by the
state have to do that except teachers.
For such bill as would regulate that
there could be gotten an almost unan.
imous vote.
Senator Stookey has such a meas.
ure now pending in the senate commit
tee on schools, unless that body has
killed 1t, and if it were revived there
would be no difficulty in passing it
even If 1T applied only to first and Sec
ond grade certificates, or even to first
grade alone.
Senators warren and CrOSSley were
in charge Of the state certiflcation bill.
Every one was for the idea they
thought there was in the measure, to
start with, giving teachers tic right
on a single examination to teach ev-
erywhere in the state but when all of
the machinery of the bill was dis
closed by Senator Courtright there
was change of sentiment.
Eloquent Addresses in Senate.
More eloquent speeches than those
delivered in the senate yesterday on
Washington's birthday anniversary
were ever heard in that body. Sena-
tors Molsbrry, Garst, Harper. Gilliland
and Saunders delivered them. They
occupied about four minutes each and
were gems of oratory. 1t was the idea
of most of the senators that adjourn
ment should have been taken over the
afternoon, at least, out of respect for
the memory of the immortal father of
his country, but it was apparent that
the teachers bill could not be finished
within the time fixed in the mornings
