We believe the present teach
ing force, without a single eX-
ception. wants a legal county
normal. Earl Denney, until In
fluenced to the contrary, was in
favor Of a legal normal. Pro-.
Philips, who has conducted the
normal here the past three
years, believed in the very be-
ginning that Baca county should
have legal normal, and e-stated
his opinion to that effect when he
was here this year.
/ Two years ago Hon. M. M.
Simpson said if he were elected
! he would do all he could to get
legal normal for Baca county,
and DR.. Hasty gave the same
promise-and then forget that
Baca county is on the map.
Allyn Cole, when down here
short time ago, said the ques-
ton is now to him, but that it
we are holding a normal here
anyway, and teachers can't or
won't attend elsewhere, he be-
lieved we should have "A legal nor-
NAL, and under these circum-
stances he would help to get it
if elected; and promised to

he will do the same thing.
There is this to close: If Baca

galized through the Legislature
this winter. in two years from
now candidates for legislative
houors will have TO face the is
sue direct in this county, and
Bro. Jones may be one of them.

DIR. Hasty and
Konkel's Disregard of Facts

MucE was said last week
in the Two .Buttes Sentinel of
Konkel's disregard of facts, and
to show how closely Bro. Jones
sticks to the facts we want to
submit the following:
Sentinel, Oct. 20, 1914.
Hon. John 5. Hasty may be
counted on, if elected, to do all
he cab for the interests of Baca
county. He knows the county
and her people. He is our next
door neighbor. We heard him
tell Earl Denney that he will be
glad, if elected, to take up the
Baca county teachers cause for
a Baca county normal, for which
Earl Denney and other teachers
are working. Mr.. Hasty has
helped Baca county before, and
will do it again.
We know what Hasty will do,
and if there is anything can be
done through the assembly to-
wards creating a Baca county
normal fund, you may depend on
it that Hasty is safe man to en-
trust it to. He has promised to
take it up.
Sentinel, Oct. 26. 1916
Two years ago, in our presence,
DIR. Hasty refused to promise to
work for a district normal for
Baca county because be could
see that it was neither advisable
or possible. Konke!, though,
dreamed that the senator did
promise, and being out for blood
last week, started out on the
senator. It's all the same,
though, for no one will take it
seriously.
Following is the resolution
which Earl as one of the com
n,ittec helped to report and to
adopJ at the normal tine year
that Hasty promised to help:
Resolved, that the normal of
Baca county be recognized, and
that all funds going to the sup
port of the district normal be re-
tanned in this county for the sup
port of the county normal.
ThesSentinels
District Normal Twaddle.
The Sentinel last week, as the
week before, again disting uishes
itself by throwing lot OF words
together-Jones style, that have
little value outside of filling
space.
We shall give Jones credit for
sincerity in his opposition to the
teachers of the county in their
effort to secure a legal normal,
and shall notice points he brings
out in support of his position
lust as if there was something
in them.
In the first place, to be consis-
tent, Jones should come out in
direct opposition to the holding
of normal of any kind in this
county, as, if they attend the
district normal, as he wants to
be compel them to do, there
won't be enough of that
