both parties In particular localities, as in Kansas,
parties have not recrystallized since the split of
1912. good many of the Ohio Progressives seem

RURAL SCHOOL WORK
WILL BE REVISED

James v. Comerford, deputy SUI
perintendent of public instructor, re-
turned to his home in Ely on Friday
night after having spent the summer
in Carson City, where he was en-
gagged with Superintendent John Ed
wards Bray and the deputies through
out the state working out course of
study for rural schools. The pur-
pose was to accommodate the work
in rural schools where one or two
teachers are engaged with mixed
grades to the conditions surrounding
such schools In order to enable such
teachers to get through the work in
an average term of eight months.
The course of study is now on the
press and will be mailed out in the
very near future. Mr.. Comerford
states that in essence the new course
does not vary greatly from the pres
ent one and the teachers will not be
seriously inconvenienced in continu-
ing the new course as soon as it is
in their hands.
The state teachers institute will
be held this year as usual. although
definite dates and places for holding
same have not yet been determined
upon.
With few exceptions teachers have
been engaged for all rural schools
and the few that are not now in ac-
tual operation will not open later
than October first.
On his return trip the deputy su-
perintendent visited schools in
Lander and Eureka counties, which
he states he found in excellent con-
dition.

FIVE MADE CITIZENS
IN THE DISTRICT COURT

On Friday five were admitted to
citizenship by Judge McFadden in
the district court. This was the reg
ular hearing day set for naturaliza-
tion matters and the examinations
were conducted by Special Examiner
F. N. Littleton, representing the
United States OF America.
The new citizens admitted are Will
liam Lamont. Michael O'Conner,
Emil 9. Hakenson. Peter T. Kogiones
and Domenick p. Curto. Mike Lark
likewise passed q very creditable ex-
animation and his final papers would
have been issued were 1t not for the
fact that one of his witnesses could
not be present. This witness will be
heard at the earliest convenience and
Mr.. Lark will then be regularly ad-
mitted TO full citizenship.
All OF the citizens admitted
passed their examinations with the
highest percentages, showing not
only thorough understanding of the
form of government, but know
ledge OF matters pertaining thereto
which was astonishing. There are
many natural born American citizens
who would have done we'll to be pres
ent at that examination,> where they
doubtless would have increased their
knowledge on matters of vital inter
est to the nation. Only two were put
back for further study and among
those accepted the one hundred per
cent mark was reached.
Before the oath of allegiance was
administered to the newly made cit
i2ens. Counsellor J. NJ. Lockhart de-
liyered an eloquent address to the
class In which he clearly outlined the
duties of a good citizen and pointed
out a great number OF the advan-
tages of the protection OF the Stars
and Stripes.

on Friday were disappointed, owing

within seven years was passed. were
still good. This. however, Is erro-
neous. and In future no declaration
that Is more than seven years old
will be accepted.

ENTHUSIASTIC OVER
CITIZENS TRAINING CAMP

Lieutenant Colonel James s. Ben
nett has returned from the citizens
military training camp at Fort Doug
lass, where he went as the repre-
sentative of the state of Nevada to
inspect the camp and be present at
the events which will make history
for the boys In the future. Col. Ben
nett was obliged to return few
days earlier than he had anticipated
owing to business matters demanding
immediate attention.
Col. Bennett expresses himself as
greatly pleased with what he saw at
Fort Douglass and considers the
camp now a permanent institution.
Upon his arrival in Utah carrying
with him credentials as the repre-
sentative of Gov. Boyle of Nevada,
he was royalty received. He was i'm
mediately furnished wit a saddle
horse and an orderly from the Unit
ed States army, which we're placed
at his disposal during his stay at the
camp.

work. Gov. Spry and his stan re-

and Col. Bennett, as the representa-
tive of Nevada, was an honored
guest of the Utah governor.
Colonel Bennett interviewed the
boys from Nevada nov at Fort Doug
lass and found them delighted with
the work and fully realizing its ben
eft. Colonel Bennett expresses the
firm belief that upon the return of
the boys, much greater enthusiasm
will be found when they have talked
with their friends here who were not
fortunate enough to have been at the
camp this season.
Outside of the state OF Utah no
other state In the intermountain re-
gion was represented Officially at
the Fort Douglass camp except Neva-
da, and Lieutenant Colonel Bennett
was highly complimented by Govern
or Spry for the keen interest shown
In the important work.
