to have NORMAL schools in the
midst of country full of child
ren without a school in connec-
ton with our normal schools in
which to SHOW to our students
how the work is done-hOw to
do it themselves under direction
before turning them out to do it
without direction. The truth is
that in this as in other matters
educational we have allowed the
procession to get away and
ahead of us. Practice schools
of the best quality we must
have in connection with our nor
NAL schools and in the school of
education in the university.
The people of Texas have never
failed us in any demand we have
made on them in the interest of
the children and our own future
glory. They will not fail US in
this when we ask them for
means to equip their normal
schools to educate their teachers
for their children in the best
way. Our people are not to
blame for our tardiness here.
The fault is in our leadership.
In you and in me.
INDUSTRIAL TRAINING DEMANDED
The people of Texas, speaking
through their Legislature, have
demanded education for etficien-
cy in social life. They have
placed the demand upon the
state schools and have given
them means to inaugurate the
movement. These departments
should not be shows or preten-
ses. They should be genuine.
The agricultural department,
and the manual training and do
mestic science departments in
these schools should be equipped
with men and women of general
scholarship and special training
for these departments and ev-
erything necessary for good
work. Our normal schools. the
university, and all the schools of
the state, should equip our
young people to serve the
masses of the people-our king
in really efficient way. This
body of distinguished men, rep
resentative citizens of Texas,
will agree with me that Texas
should not engage in pretenses,
but that we of to-day should be
as true and sincere in times OF
peace as the fathers were in
times OF war. In many con.
fict they faced falsehood even
when it was clothed in hot lead
and hurled from the mountain's
} crimson rim. Many of them
thought it an honor TO die fol
the country they loved. Theil
descendants are not degenerate
Intelligent men who love Trutl
and Texas will give Falsehoot
its lie, though clothed in hot all
and belched from the tlanne
mouth of the ignorance that as
sumes to represent the people
, of Texas in opposition to th'
things that would make our peo
pie individually efficient and oul
state illustrious. Let us give
our beloved state a future which
shall prove a true deduction
= from the promises laid by th'
fathers in deathless devotion t
I Truth.

In the Juvenile court Tuesday
of this week there were some
four or more yonng offenders
brought to trial, found guilty of
the charges filed and sentenced
to a term of two years in the
Juvenile reformatory at Gates
vile. Sentence was suspended
upon promise of good behavior,
and strict parental control. 1t
is to be hoped that these youth
full offenders will remember
their promises and the goodiad
vice given by the court, turn
over a new leaf and show their
parents and many friends that
they are going to do what's right
and be young Men.

R. B. COUSINS RESPONSE TO TOAST
"A Normal School Principal has Rights, a
Few, not Many =, and Obligations which
no Man can Number"

school principal a man has as
many rights as other folks, but
when he becomes normal
school principal he forfeits
: many of those rights. AS a
normal school principal man
has the right to be elected as
often as the State Board of Ed
ucatiOn will allow. He has the
right to draw pay-''a little, not
much''-from the state treas
ury. In one case in Texas the
law gives him the right to con
suit with the board about one
matter, the only one known to
the law of the state; but this is
better than it might be, for it
might have been silent even in
this case, and then no normal
school principal would have any
rights whatever that the State
Board of Education, or any one
else. is compelled to respect.
Hence he should be grateful
that it is not so bad as it might
be. This reminds me of the
gratitude of a pious old lady who
was fond of counting her bles-
sings" Said she, Il have but
two teeth. one above and one be
low, but | thank God these two
meet"
The only rights that normal
school principal has in Texas
grow out of the law of the life of
the normal school, but none of
these are mentioned in the writ
ten laws that govern these
<schools in Texas. All authority
I is conferred by law upon the
State Board of Education and
that body delegates only such
authority to it's agencies as it
chooses to confer. The law
makers have assumed that the
fState Board has all wisdom con-
rerning the management of the
normal schools, and has there
fore conferred all authority up
on that body. Other men en-
gagged in these schools have no
rights which the state law com
pels the members to respect
| bear glad testimony to the fact
that the present State Board is
wiser than the law and has, ont
of it's own wisdom, conferred
authority commensurate with
responsibility. The policy
adopted by the present State
Board contrasts most delight
fully in the building of a new
normal school with that pursued
in the building of others in
Texas. The present State
Board has commissioned the
new principal to proceed to pro-
cufe plans and specifications for
the new building that will en-
body all that is new and proved
intschool architecture. The his
tory of at least one other venture
in the building of a normal
school shows that the chief au-
thority instructed a contractor
to take the plans and specifica-
tions of certain old building
and make the new house like it.
This Chinese worship of ances-
tors gave US a new schoolhouSe
Which is an exact copy of the
lt1A blunders and all.
We present State Board has
mistened to the sweet songs
lsolitical sirens in the selec-
4 of professors and instruct
IS in the normal schools, but in
very case has given the princi-
Lpal the right and has laid upon
Min the responsibility of select
A1g members of his faculty, thus
living the state the benefit of
klpert Judgment in this mos,
Saportant matter. This con
, asts beautifully with an ole

Along with numerous real estate
deals reported in this paper during
the past few weeks, is the sale just
made of the residence of Mrs. An

fine new home has been purchased
by Mr.. Eastman of LeMars, Iowa,
who comes to DEBORAH to make his
home He visited Cresco, McGre-
gor, Waterloo, Cedar Falls and
OF. er points in search of place to
make his home, and finally decided
upon DEBORAH as the ideal location,
which speaks we'll for our city in
comparison to neighboring towns.
The fact of the matter is, there is
not a better place to live in the
whole United States than DEBORAH.
We know, we have tried it.

es In the press everyone would have
the advantage of learning the
views of both men.
Realizing that 1T will be impos-
sible to poll a heavy vote on No
vember 8 unless all the electors
are registered, the republican state
central committee this week is urg-
ing its workers in all parts of Iowa
to have the men who are eligible
to vote go before the registration
boards and make sure they are
properly registered. The boards
will be in session on Wednesday
and Thursday of this week, also
November 5.
Because there are so many pos
sibilities of mistakes being made in
copying the names of those who
registered and voted at the previ-
Gus election, it is considered i'm
perative that every voter ascertains
for himself that he is properly
qualified. If this is done there
will be no possibility of aGy man
entitled to vote being denied that
privilege on election day.
As far as the registration is con-
cerned, 1t is only in cities of over
$500 inhabitants that the voters
must register on one of the three
days before election. In the small
er towns and country precincts re-
gistration Is confined to election
day. In the city, however, the only
voters who can register o. election
day are those who were out of the
0ffv q Of tho nfhnr 40
Those who registered and voted
at the last general ele:tion or any
election since then, excepting the
party primary, need not register
anew for this election. All others
must register. The exception Is
made of the primary because regis
tration is not required for that
The law requires that the registry
boards in making up new registra-
tion books this fall must copy from
the old poll books the names Of all
those who registered and voted
but only those. The Names of
those who registered but did not
vote will not be copied. To qualify
they must register again.
Many people do not understand
that when they move from one pre-
cinct to another they must register
again. There are so many things
which are apt to disqualify a vote
that the only safe plan is for the
voter to call at his precinct place
of registration and see that his
name is on the new registration
books. If it does not appear, he
must register.

A LIVELY CAMPAIGN
State Central Committee Reviews
Conditions.
LARGE LIST OF SPEAKERS
Speaking Campaign Now on i'm
Earnest Throughout the State,
All Working for Party
Success.

Despite the fact. that the closing
weeks of every campaign are the
decisive ones, republican nominees
who are aspiring to election on
Nov. 8 ignored their personal in
terests last week and almost with
out exception cancelled every speak
ing engagement they had made. The
action was taken because of tie
death of United States Senator
Jonathan P. Dolliver, and serves 70
show in what regard he was held
by all the people of Iowa.
Owing to the fact that the flow
of oratory was stemmed for a week
1t is expected the speaking cam
paign will be more strenuous than
ever from now until the day of
will endeavor to visit the places in
which they had planned to make
addresses last week by whirlwind
trips and shorter addresses.
Governor B. F. Carroll this week
Is campaigning along the southern
border of the state. On Wednesday
afternoon he appears in Center
vile, the home of Claude r. Por-
ter, who Is the democratic nominee
for the place now held by Gov.
Carroll and to which he is seeking
reelection. Three days following
his appearance at the home of his
opponent, Gov. Carroll will speak
in his home town of Bloomfield
This address will be Saturday night
and it is probable he will remain in
Bloomfield over Sunday. Gov. Car
roll is covering more territory than
any other republican nominee.
Through the use of automobiles,
he is able to make several towns
day and meet the people while
enroute
Among the other speakers who
enter upon speaking campaigns
this week are Attorney General H.
w. Byers, Lieutenant Governor
George w. Clark, former Governor
Warren Garst, Supreme Court Clerk
B. w. Garrett, George Cosson, w.
S. Kenyon, F. F. Faville, George
Dobson, c. G.. Saunders and Robert
Healy.
Everywhere there are indications
that the statewide organization per-
IeCJeu ny the republicans lot the
current campaign is actively at
work. Almost every paper has
some account of a republican coun-
ty meeting being held and of the
made for getting out
the vote. Speeches by the con-
gressional nominees in their vari-
Gus districts are serving to stimu-
late interest.
During the past week the deHo-
Gratis, having nothing to lose, hare
endeavored to secure recognition
from the republicans by suggesting
a series of joinst debates between
Gov. Carrsll and Mr.. Porter. The
c. allenge was answered with a
statement that Mr.. Carroll's dates
had been arranged for the remain
er of the campaign, but that if Mr..
Porter would discuss the planks In
either the democratic or republican,
platforms, Mr.. Carroll would ans
wer the arguments In his speeches.

that the company now manufacturing

approached by New York capitalists
who wish to purchase the patent rights
with the idea OF manufacturing it
upon large scale. Negotiations are
said to be we'll under way at present
sale being made.
While the amount offered could not
be ascertained it is stated that the
original stockholders of the concern,
some of whome reside in Dou las,
would receive large sum in exchange
for their stock

of Mitt GUNNER. has been working
successfully in the Altar placer dis

crushing ths conglomerate in which
the gold lies, had been worked in
desultory and entirely unsatisfactory
manner. Several of the machines are
now in use in connection with dry
washing machines. proving a great
success in every particular.
Ths invention has also been dem
onstrated to be equally successful in
preparation of crushed stone for ma
