vfT0fS THE CASS LAKE Bill!
New Normal School Is Killed for This
SessiOn-First Veto Message
Received.

st. Paul, April 8.-Gov. johnson We
toed the Cass Lake normal school Dill
yesterday. This is the first measure
to feel the executive AK at the present
session.
The veto message was reported to
the senate late yesterday. The gov
ernor gives several reasons for op-
posing the bill. He holds that there
is no immediate need for the school.
There is a school of pedagogy at the
University of Minnesota and five state
normal schools. The schools at Moor
head and Duluth have room to spare.
The states finances do not warrant
the new institution.
As to location. the governor says
the normal board is opposed to Cass
Lake because it has not enough popu-
lation to supply a model school.
