The veto of the bill providing for the
rebuilding of the state normal school
at Cheney is great disappointment to
the people of the entire eastern half of
the state, and particularly the thickly
populated portion embraced in the
southeastern quarter of the state. The
school had its infantile struggle and
doubts of its survival were at times
felt; but later it entered upon career
of advancement that had brought it to
high degree of efficiency and popular
favor when the confiagration of last
year destroyed its home. TO take adj
vantage of this misfortune to smother
the school entirely does not appear to
us as either just or in the interests of
real economy. 1t looks more like play
into the hands of the west side, that
wants the amount of this proposed ap-
preparation for some other purpose
there are no indications that the
amount will be permitted to repose in
the treasury. The legislature may
overrule Governor Listers action if the
| friends of the school can negotiate
trades" enough on other propositions
to secure the requisite majorities in the
two houses.

Iaceyites Propose to Develop POssibtli-
ties Of Their section This Spring.
Horticultural development is on in
earnest in the Lacey district and the
acreage now going into deciduous,
small pitted fruits and berries, prom
ises to attain proportions which will
shatter any previous annual record
in Thurston county. During the past
week in the section south OF that
Olympia tributary it was learned that
the following land owners were making
the soil ready for the planting OF trees:
J. A. Southwick, 10 acres Mount
Morency cherries; Ed Doran, VINO
resides in Seattle, 8 acres of pears
and cherries; w. H. Rush, who put In
and purchased 10 acres Of cherries last
season Is now planting $40 winter
Bartlett pears; w. Fl. Munshaw, 3
acres of late Duke and 10 acres OF
Mount Morency cherries; JAMS Jen-
sen, Ga jap 1000 cherries and 900
pears of standard varieties, SO planted
that they will cover an area OF con-
siderably more than Is acres ana per-
nit of the cultivation of several kinds
of vegetables and berries between the
rows each season until the orchard has
come to maturity.
The nomenclature Of this latter
planter is that which attaches to Swed-
ish citizens generally, but the little
brown man insists it is not a nom de
plume but that he rightfully acquired
1t. Certainly he is versed In the ways
and the works of horticulturist ana
can intelligently discuss soil value ana
tree worth with the most astute cui-
turist of any nationality.
For the most part these and others
who are either planting or preparing
to plant, are following the scientinc
lines laid down by the authorities who
have aided the successful orchardists
here and elsewhere for several years
past. Proper selection and acclimated
tree stocks are considered by them TO
be important factors in their tasks
but due and full consideration is being
given to the pits. fertilizing and the
drainage, which will insure an early
roofing and rapid growth of all that
they put in the ground.

Governor Lister has shown that he
cannot be bulldozed nor frightened
by any legislative tactics. He made
it plain in his inaugural address that
he was opposed to the rebuilding OF
the Cheney normal. Yet in spite OF
this the legislature passed the s30O,Ooo
appropriation for this purpose. me
governor promptly vetoed 1t. Inc
passage of this bill was log rolling
frame up and if the governor has kill
ed this unholy alliance he has done
two good strokes by his veto. Pos
sibly the legislature will hesitate now
to pass a 100000 appropriation for
the Pacific exhibition as it is well
known that, the governor will not ap
prove measure calling for more than
one-half of this sum.

This paper wishes to commend

quiet death now. One normal, well
