The anti ornlons sheet started out
with the assertion that hundreds of
plural marriages had been performed
since the Manifesto, with the knowl-
edge and approval of the Church a AZ {

It ends by affirming that, according
Ito rumor, some such marriages have
taken place; which Is an entire
~ different proposition. Illegal unions
occur, unfortunately, in every state
and every country, notwith andingl
both laws and churches, but that is no
proof that they have the sanction Of
church leaders. i III
Upon the anti-sM ormon" sheet rests
the moral obligation to prove that
hundreds Of such unions have been en-
tered into with the knowledge and
sanction OF the Church Authorities
That is ITS sclanderosis proposition, IL
hundreds Of such cases exist, Y should:

one. Each case 1t can prove Is worth

1890. During he smoot investtg alton

STATUS OF TEACHERS.

The discussion of the State Board Of
Education to raise the requirements
for teachers certificates is certainly a
decided and comlnendable step in the
realm of public education.
The requirements now made for "a life
diploma include seven years OF eduoa-.
tional training beyond the grades. The
subjects required In addition TO the
elementary branches ere physical
geography ply siology, al &c bra physics,
rhetoric, drawing, plane and solid geom-5
etry, botany, English literature, gen
eral history, civil government, history
and science of education, Mythology
and also work in any three OF the fol-
lowing branches. namely. chemistry,
geology, French, German, Latin, Greek,
strigonometry zoology, biology and min
eralogy, II the work done in these
subjects does not complete seven years
of work. then substitution of work In
college grade will be allowed, f.
It will be seen that the requirements
are both thorough and liberal. allowing

The requirements for elementary
teachers include four and five years
work beyond the grades. according as
a five-year or a life certificate is
sought
1t would seem that none of the re-
CURED subjects could we'll be spared
from the necessary equipment of the
teacher yet the time required Of teach
ers to attain such proficiency contrasts
strongly with the wages paid to teach
ers.
Statistics Just compiled by the federal
aries of men engaged in public high
school work range from less than $500
10 5000 per annuin: those OF women
employed in the same schools, from less
than 5000 to So, 600. The average salary
among men Is 5000 a year. and among
women $3.50. s
! Such are the salaries paid in the
cities: but the condition is worse in
the country districts. Many OF these
salaries are not over $50 a month
