The FIGHT SILL ON
Interview With Delegate eooliick-Frsosrlcks-
burg Has Good Chance fer Finally Securing
the Normal.

The normal school question was the
all absorbing topic around the House
Neste rdBy, and many members who are
interested expressed themselves as dis
satisfied with the outcome of the matter
in the ;, nate. They think that the Sen
ate should have agreed 30 the House res
olutiou asking for n joint sitting of the
Assembly 10 consider the matter.
The action of the Senate in passing
the HarTisOnburg Normal School bill in
no way settles the matter Of the location
III this school" said Mr. Goodrich, of
Fredericksburg, " hen approached on
the subject. Senator Keezell has won
out in the Senate il IL true, but even
there his maj prity over Fredericksburg
was only six, the vote standing 30 to IL
He had a distinct advantage in that
body by reason OF his position a. chair
man OF the Finance Committee and as a
member of the Committee on Public In
situations and Education, both of which
committees had consideration of the
Normal School bills. Senator Keezell in
the Senate referred to some one as fight
ing under cover This charge cannot be
sustained by the Senator from Rocking.
ham. On the contrary, the friends OF
other cities feel that Senator keeZell has
not given them a fair deal. The only
fair way OF settling this fight was by the
method set out in the Joint resolution,
which passed tn Hou-e. providing for a
lint conference of the House aud Senate.
= location To be selected ia this confer
ence by the process Of elimination This
resolution unanimously passed the House
and wac killed in the Senate by Senator
Keesell. who now charges that some one
Is fighting under cover. His reason for
killing this resolution arose from the fact
that he had al unfair advantage in the
Senate, and from the further fact that
HarrisonburR was unwilling to take her
chances in a joint meeting, though the
county OF Rockingham has two Delegates
In the House and none of the other loca-
lions more than one. The House Com
mittee on Schools aud Colleges. in the 10.
terest of fair play, has so far refrained
from recommending any location, and
thus giving that location an advantage,
but now that Senator Keezell has refused
to take his chances in a joint M citing the
House COMMITTEES will act. and it is safe
to say that the committee won't indorse
Harrisonburg.
Senator KeezslPs charge of fighting
under cover is not true so far "a Freder-
icksburg II concerned. and | do not be-
lieve that it is correct as to any city or
town in this fight Times Dispatch

ers of the American Federation of Labor.
The admission was made in connection
with the hearing before Examiner Harper,
who is taxing the testimony bearing on
the contempt case against S1r. Gompers
and Messrs. Morrison ana Mitchell OF the
Federatien.' which grows out of thc al,
legged violation of the injunction decree.
Il WAS shown that the order had been
issued Dec. 1s. 1907. and that between
that date and Dec %, when it became
effective. the January edition of the Fed
e"atiCnist had been issued few days in
advance of the ordinary time and Mr.

purpose had been to continue the Bucks

would not say, however. that the action
