Olcott placed in a very trying position and Nor mal may win over even the adverse action of the Secretary. Since the decision was handed down in the University of Ore gon case the State Normal case is assuming a peculiar situation. The University case was decided against the University on the ground that petitions were reg ular, even though a number of forged names wer appended, so long as the number of Tsonafide names was as great as the law required, even if every sheet did not contain the legal require- Secretary of State Ben W. Olcott mentsof a petition so long as they were attached together un der one head, im.. m fnsp was over the appropriation of $50,000 for the JNormai aciiwi w construct ' a new dormitory. President Ackerman a little over a week ago went to Salem and presented a voucher for the Normal School money. Attor ney General Crawford advised the Secretary p( the State, Ben W Olcott, to refuse to honor the voucher on the ground that the University decision states a pn- . j.-:j.,di cannnt brincr an vate inuiviuuo - injunction suit as filed in these two cases. . .. - tv,j Atrnmev Gen in tnecouiw -eraldid not appeal the Monmouth case but the University case only and the time for the appeal in . . .ou has lapsed. the Monmouui v- -Jud.eGo.aydec.ed.nfao of trie bioiw"" -nderstand Attorney Genera! as al! other kinds loonstone Jewelry ORDER 1 con ten : .-. hv. the Nor- j :o sLtrui i.y i in:-! Stho- the tleclsion s"f tiio upiU..io Court. There were no stipula tions to that effect filed in so far as we have been able to learn, and the Monmouth case is in the hands of Attorney Hayter, of Dallas, as attorney for the school, who we believe is contending that the appropriation is now due and should be paid the school and the application of Superintendent Ackerman is undoubtedly the first step to bring the matter in to legal shape. Secretary of State Olcott is in a precarious condition in the mat ter as an injunction now stands against him placing the referen dum on the measure, and " if ne does so it will be in face of a court injunction that has not been repealed nor declared invalid and which is binding on him. It is contended that, if he places the referendum measure on the bal lot, is fined for contempt of court, and the measure is voted for by the people it becomes an invalid measure and the school would be entitled to the money just as though no referendum had been filed against the school. ELECTION MAY 60 TO THE HOUSE This early in the campaign speculation is rife as to what would happen in the event no presidential candidate re ceived a majority of the elec toral votes this fall. Of course, this contingency is based on the presumption that. Roosevelt will be a can didate. In case no candidate re ceived a majority of the votes of the electoral college, the selection would be thrown into the House of Represen tatives. TheA'Ote would be by states, ech having one vote. The choice of the state would be settled by its dele gation in caucus. The ques tion would be determined by the House, which holds until the fourth day of March next. In the history of the coun try, the president has been elected by the House on two occasions, first in 1800, when Thomas Jefferson was the choice, and again in 1821, when John Quincy Adams was selected. In the last case mentioned, Adams was cho sen, although Andrew Jack son received a plurality of the electoral votes. The Hayes-Tildtn election in 1876, was settled by a special electoral commission of fifteen, as the result of a compromise. TV0 KINDS OF GIRLS There are two kinds of girls in the world, the girl who works and the girl who gads. Commend us to the former. Work lends dignity to a pretty girl, is an added charm to her. The girl who works, Ood bless her, com bines the useful and the orna mental. She might gad about, roll on sofas, gossip and read story books, but he pre fers to be of some account in the world and goes out steno grapher, teaching, saleslady or , house-keeper, bravely making her own way. Such are the saU of the earth and of such is the kingdom of heaven. Ex. ON BANKING REFORM The attitude of both great political parties toward baiik ingreform as expressed, with in the last few weeks, in the national platforms, as previ ously exptessed in the Dem ocratic platform of Alabama, the Republican platform of uk;-. nsas, the Democratic I '.I1:; rm of Delaware, the Re-i.ah'-ioan platform of Dela uiuc, the Democratic plat form of New Hampshire, the Republican platform of New York, the Republican plat form of Pennsylvania, the Re publican platform of Tennes see, and the Democratic plat form of Virginia, but empha sizes the necessity of non-partisan treatment of a vital, ec onomic subject. Both par ties declare that the remedy should be in the interest of the whole country, and not in the interest of Wall Street or any other part of it. Does it not seem reasona ble to divorce politics and business in considering so important a matter? Does it not seem reasonable forCon eress to follow the advise of o j business men and adopt a system which is fashioned after the framework of our government; that is, to have a system of co-operation which .will insure justice to every town and hamlet, which willhelp the farmer to move his crop, and the plant er to market his cotton, which will guarantee safety to the investor and relief to the borrower, which will be a staff to the wage-earner be cause money panics will not throw himout of employment and which will be a solar-pit x as blow to the Money Trust or to any other kind of trust thatselfishly seeks to increase its power so that it may safe ly nestle in a New York sky scraper and dictate interest rates to the valleys beyond the Rockies or the townships of the plains? Ex. CHEERFULNESS PAYS A cheerful spirit carried in to the stable full of stock will make that place just like itself. Did you ever think of it? A sour, unhappy expres sion, roughness when open ing the stable door, will put every animal on the defense, ready to kick and resent. Be sides, good cheer is distinctly advantageous in the produc tion of meat, milk, and wool. The milker who "croons to the cow" is encouraging her to do her best. The same rule applied to the family and help. Let happiness and cheer predominate every thing, day by da-.
