Change in Normal School Quar-
terly.

The Normal School Quarterly, pub
hshed 10y the johnson State Normal
School, just issued, announces a change
in policy. The state board of education
has voted to replace The Quarterly as
the publication of the johnson
school with one to represent all
the schools of the state. 1t is likely
that this will be more pretentious in
form and will be edited in turn by the
three schools, Johnson, Randolph, and
Castleton, a fourth number annually
being c 'talogue of the schools.
The Quarterly announces plans for the
summer session of the school which
will be held in Johnson from July to
90, inclusive, with five sessions each
week

Means for lettering Normal
Schools

The state board of Education held a
session at the Van Ness house, Burling-
ton, Friday evening with the principals
of the normal schools to discuss WAYS
and means to increase the efficiency of
these institutions. Gov. G. II Prouty and
State Superintendent of Education Ma
son S Stone, ex-oflicial members of the
board, were present.
The principal matter discussed was
that of strengthening the teaching
forces in the schools, using a part of
the extra appropriation of $500 voted
by the legislature at the last session.
1t is likely, said a member of the
board, that no further attempt will be
made, at least before the legislature of
next fall. to have one centralized normal
school, the proposition having been de-
feated in 1908 after strenuous fight.

POSTAL BANK BONDS
 READY FOR ISSUE

WASHINGTON, D. C., Act. s. Designs of the new postal savings bank bonds have been approved by Secretary Macyeagh. By the time the postal banks begin to receive de posits the Treasury deparament will be ready to issue the new securities if they are demanded.
 The new bonds are entirely differ. ent from anything the government: has ever issued Mir. MacVeagh dele. gated the work of supervising the preliminary designs to Assistant Sec. retary A. Piatt Andrew, who has spent a great deal of time and study on Lhem.
 Nothing like the time-honored de signs ot the old bonds and the pres. ent government money will be found on the Jew ones. The handsome goddess who used to rest her left arm and lean languidly on a horn oi plenty. holding alof: an olive branch in her right hand, will bt conspicu ous by her absence from tSe lower left hand corner. The railroaG train that used to pun along what IoohoG like top of a wire fence will be there no longer. Various designs of flowers which used to intermingle with dollar marks on lattice will be eliminated.
 The new bonds have been designed not alone for artistic beauty. but for their utilitarian values and the econ. omy with which they can be pro- duced. An engraving of George Washinoton is in the center Of the twenty dollar bond. The lettering is plain and square, perfectly straight and almost severe. All the work is sharp and clean cut. There is still enough fine engraving to guard against counterfeiting.
 The old bonds fold very badly. Sd the new ones are of size which folds three times and just fits a safe deposit box. The coupon bond with forty interest coupons attached, is said to be the smallest govern ment security security ever issued anywhere, and folds up to the size of a ten dollar bank note The reg. istered bond is to be a little larger. Postal bank bonds will pay 23s per cent interest, and come in denomin- ations from $20 up. They can be is- sued to depositors in the postal banks or by the trustees to replace bonds of the government now outstanding Or about to be issued.

REPu5lICAkiSM EAST AND WEST

There Is apparently a vast diner. ence between republicanism in the East and the party faith as ex- pounded by the insurgents in the West Thus. while republican con ventions in the West are denouncing the Payne-Aldrich tarin and are de- manding its revision, the recent re publican convention in New York, which former President Roosevelt dominated and the platform of which he dictated, praised the Payne-Aldrich tariff, and exonerated it from all re- sponsibility for the high cost of liv- ing.
 While in the West the Taft admin istration is being damned with faint praise or ignored altogether, in the New York convention MT. Taft and his works were enthusiastically en- dorsed In a word, there was nothing in the so-caIled progressiveness of the republican platform of New York which Messrs. Cannon, Payne. Aid rich, Hale and the whole cohort of stand-pasters coud not enthusiastically indorse, while it contains nothing that represents the views of the western insurgents. Evidently then. eastern insurgency. socalied, is of Q radically different type from the bona fide article in the West, which was expected to sweep the country.
 About the cn!y :l.rk sr the Sara toga platform to which the stand patters, or "old guard" took excep- ton was the direct promaries plank. which, even as adopted. was hardly radical enough to meet the views of the western progressives- In a word. the republicanism of the East is of the same old type, modified for the moment by the efforts of new men to supplant the old leaders in con troI of party machinery.

ROOSEvELT'S NEW NATIONALIST.

The Maine election supplies the best comment on Colonel Roosevelts new nationalism. The people refused 10 be diverted from the issues. They declined to believe that the republi- can party had anything to offer them. Tt is the party of high tariH and every other form of special priv nege. of monopoly, extortion and fraud" the voters rightly reasoned, and they also piIloried it as the party that violated its pledges. As it was in Maine. so will it be all over the country. The new nationalism is a double play to exploit the personal ambitions Of Theodore Roosevelt and 10 cover up the broken faith of the republican party by a patchwork quilt of doctrines of many hues- The verdict of Maine on this expedient of the arch-doctrinarie, voices the yer dict of the entire country
 By the radicalism which Mir Roose. welt has incorporated in his plat form. he makes bid for the radi- caIs. By the reactionary doctrines he hands a sop to the reaetionaries. But the chief motive of the Osawato- mic speech is found in those parts of it which are neither radical nor reactionary. but come under the term progressive.

Roosevelt has the threefold object of winning popular acclaim by ap- ,peaiins to the national progressive movement whose magnitude he real izes. of saving the corrupt. unpro- gressive anr reactionary republican marty by fitting it out in disguise of borrowed plumage. and of soaring away democrats from progressive ideas because Roosevelt has taken them up.

REFORM IN NEVADA.

The gambling houses in Nevada have been closed. The dispatches say that gaming resorts which have run uninterruptedly since the days of Mark Twain and Bret Harte' have been forced to bar their doors by reason of the new anti-gambling act which became a law at midnight on September 90.
 h Reno the patrons have held their farewell meetings. The lid has been clapped on for good and open gambling is a thing of the past. The roulette wheels, the faro layouts, the slot ma chimes and other devices for feecing the unsophisticated have been carted away. There may be gambling :n Reno hereafter: doubtless there will be; but 1t will not be conducted OF the open door policy as in the past Every device known to the gambling game has been in operation at Reno and Carson City for many years The gaming establishments were deliberately and expensiyely furnished. There was nothing lacking for the Inconvenience and comfort of patrons. Some thousands of people found it a pleasure to loose money amid such attractive environments, and votaries of fiskle fortune came thousands of miles to try their luck.
 Business is likely to be dull for & time in Reno and Carson City. To begin with, several thousand persons in the two cities find their occupa- tion gone. and are reduced to the necessity of seeking gainful employ menL The influx of tourists already has ebbed and the hotels are not crowded as in the days when east erners and xesterners and northern CTS and southerners fiocked to Reno and Carson City to try their luck.
 Nevada is the last of the states of the Union to write laws into it's statute books forbidding gambling In Nevada, as in no other place i'll the United States, the gambler has had full sway. It has been a popular saying that everything goes in Ne vada," but the saying will have to be revised. Some of the people of the state evidently have awakened to the fact that the days of mining camp iawlessness have been too long prolonged and that there can be no enduring prospect of prosperity for state that does not show some regard for decency. Now that there has been one movement in the direc- tion of reform let us hope that there will be others. The Nevada divorce laws are a disgrace to the state and a curse to the country at large. They are more discreditable and more dangerous to society than the open gambling which has been for bidden by law. If there is enough of civic righteousness to destroy wide pen gambling there should be enough to put an end to the divorce-while- you-wait

It was he who in 1906 put on the curtailment of Cannon's powers for four years by a letter euiogizing him.
