Delta Seeks Normal School.

At a public meeting held last Satur-
day night citizens of Delta took de-
termined stand in favor of using every
possible means to secure branch Of
the State Normal School. The matter
was discussed in all its different phases
and no good reason seemed to arise
why Delta should not be an aspirant
and use its best endeavor to secure the
school. We are in the center of what
will soon be the largest populated Sec
ton Of the Western Slope. We have
Il splendid climate. the best water and
in fact no town can offer greater ad-
vantages than Delta.
Representative Vicent was requested
to introduce bill locating such school
in Delta. Plans were made for the use
of every possible influence that can be
directed in Delta's favor and a com.
mittee consisting of Judges M. r.
Welch and A. r. King, H. II. Wolbert,
A. II. Stockham. D. p. Cook, e. A.
