LAMENTABLE FAILURE.

The late lamented oregon legislature
done a very unwise and shabby trick
when it refused to grant the usual ap-
propriations for maintenance OF its
several Normal schoolc. After making
the most unusual and extravagant
grants to almost every other institu-
ton worthy and unworthy, it refused
several worthy Normals. While it
might have been considered wise
thing to reduce the number of SUCH
schools from four to one or two, cut
ting them all out of any state support
showed a very narrow spirit whole
the primary system of selecting candl-
dates for the legislature now in full
practice in that state, may not be en-
tirely to blame for getting together
such q crowd of statesmen as was as
sembled for forty days at Salem, 1t
certainly had a hearing on their Sc
lection, that the educators OF :he state
will long remember. This system al
lows candidates to nominate them
selves for office and the mos ambl-
tious and persistent ones very often
secure the office by persistence alone.
That the old style party conventions
would have selected set of candidates
who would have so utterly neglected
that most important part of the educa-
tional system, the training of t1ach-
ers for the public schools, is not at all
probable. Men of larger and better
views on the public school system
would have undoubtedly been chosen.
A few more trials of the system with
similar results will be likely to set the
people of that state to thinking of
way to better the methods Of selecting
men to conduct the business of that
great state.

level. as each has one game to it's
credit The first half was rather list
less on the part of the players, and
the "Y' had IA to it's credit to Whit
mans 10. when the half ended. In the
second half both teams awoke from
their lethargy, and played ball for all
they were worth, ait times making the
game resemble football match on ac-
count of the roughness. The Whitman
team began to find it's usual speedy
team work, and outplayed it's oppon-
ents, shutting them out with the ex-
ception of two points from fouls, until
the last of the half when Crecillus
secured a field goal. For Whitman
the Belt brothers and Ned Barnes
broke even for honors, ALT Belt and
Barnes each secured foul field goals,
and Warren Belt five. The star or
the "Y" team was Crecilius, the little

guard. The rubber between the W
