If it becomes a permanent condition, the bonus will not cost so much, after all. i ' MOMS CANDIDATES DUE. . . ' The Oregonian's editorial expressing flat-fooled opposi tion to the nomination of 'Stanfield in the primaries this spring has aroused much interest in political circles and is looked upon in some quarters as a forerunner of a licw candidacy out of Portland for the Republican senatorial .nomination. The Oregonian thinks Stanfield cannot be elected if nominated and says that is sufficient reason for opposition, desiring as it does the return to the senate of a Republican and an administration supporter. The Oi gonin4vnot nldHo-m-Us -epwiiun boiil&taufto4nml.muy influential men in the party are fearful the final election Mould sec .him defeated with no presidential landslide to counted on... Nothing would suit the Democrats better, '86 the senatorial situation is far from being peaceful these days. New candidates are expected to enter the race soon and in the meanwhile Fred Steiwcr and Clark are quietly busy with their fences. Steiwcr, incidentally, is winning some excellent support in many sections of the state and Jooks like a strong contender. IIP "tasriS!.

The product of two-year normal fcchools goes almost exclusively to city schools. There does not seem any reason to expect u change in this. At any rate, the investigators have none but the most elemental suggestions to make for improvement which they regaid essential. - - s i First there must he recognition by utral people that their children cannot have secondary or higher education if they do not receive elemental training adequately. For this 'good teachers arc needed. We must demand them. Iiut it is plain that as long as teachers are free to select from among the jobs available they will nt choose small country schools if they can go to the city. When the normal school authorities are empowered to assign teachers against their will, not many new teachers will he graduated. If rural schools arc to be better served than they have been their managers must compete fur competent teachers. Instead of paying the minimum salary permitted to be paid they might do well to offer premiums for good teachers. That would draw competence away from the city and make better elemental training possible.
