considerable.

TWO WOULD SUFFICE
FOR NEED&-OF OREGON
R. Alexander, President of the State
Board of Regents, Thinks That Five
Members on the Board Would Be
Sufficient Speaks Highly of West
em Normal.
R. Alexander, president of the state
board of normal regents, when inter
viewed by an East Oregonlan reporter
this morning about Governor Cham
berlain's recommendation to cut tho
number of state normal colleges from
four In number to two, was not very
communicative
Ho had no objections to being quot
ed to a certain point, but declared ho
had ltttlo to say on tho subject at this
Juncture. However, ho expressed him-
Eolf unresorvedly to tho effect that
under no consideration would he fa
vor abandoning Uio Weston normal, It
being tho only normal the entire east
ern portion of tho state has, whllo Its
efficiency Is Increasing every year, and
for tho past year or two at a rapid
rate.
Ho considers the present president
and faculty as efficient and capable.
During the past two years between
$50,000 and $60,000 has been expend
ed on tho Weston normal, and the
board of regents Is asking for 137,-
000 this legislature. These reasons
moro particularly the location of the
Weston normal In Mr. Alexanders
opinion, forestall tho presentation of
nny arguments for tho abandonment
of this, college that will have any con
ilder-ible weight w'lh the legislature.
Ho believes that one normal in
Western ai tl nno In Eastern Oretrnn
poperly maintained, would meet all
l oturil or legitimate demands of the
1'fople for state normals.
Mr. Alexander incidentally favors
reducing tho number of regents of the
state normr.l from soven to flw. The
most forcllle reason for the reduc
tion being the fact that It Is very sel
dom that any amount of persuasion nr
good reasons for a full board meeting
actuallly secures the attendance of all
the mcmbets. Usually there Is but
cie session in the year at which nil
the members arc present, and that Is
the session at which tho teachers for
the ensuing year aro hired. Even for
this meeting a good deal of persuasion
Is necessary to secure the attendance
oT all of the members.

A DELIVERY WAGON MERGER.
Pendleton Firms Will Discard Private
Teams and .Use City Delivery.
A movement Is well under way now
which promises to do away with the
many jyrivato delivery teams now In
uso uy the business firms of this city
An effort Is being made to form a
city delivery, under the management
of ono firm, which now operutes five
wagons. Tho merchants aro taking
very favorably to the proposition, as
tiio co3t of maintaining tho delivery
teams is about equal to tho cost of
hiring this service performed.
Tho principal merchants have been
conferred vith by tho promoters of
tho plan, and much favorablo senti
ment has been expressed. The main
tenance of a system of city delivery,
with teams enough to meet tho busi
ness requirements of the city prompt
ly, would meet with universal ap
proval amocg business men, and tho
scheme will be pushed as fast as pos
sible. Already a limited number of tho
business firms havo disposed of their

FOR NEW SCHOOL DISTRICT.
Large Influx of Settlers Make It Nec
essary to Form Another District
A petition was presented to tho
..-.. om.rt nrnvlnn- for tho organl-
lUUlllJ WM. v I J -c. -
zatlon of a now school district out or
now territory adjoining districts xuu
and 8G. Tho now district, If organiz
ed, would lie on tho county lino, al
most directly north oi mo cuy, um. u
mti in Vin Ti-nntwnril from the city.
Tho first petition was Incorrect, and
was returned to mo prumuiuio ui
Un.iorlntnnilrnf Nnwlln for cor
rection and recirculation. The Influx
of now settlers has rendered tho or
ganization of a now district in the
territory designated necessary
Addition to District 89.
W. P. Ross, of Meacham, Is bestir
ring himself to have about 25 sections
of land parts of the old reservation
nml partly government land and con
slderablo of It railroad land added
to school district 89. Tho project
would add over four miles of O. R. &
N. railroad to the district and greatly
Increase tho amount of taxable prop
erty, which is, of course. Just what
tho promoters of the scheme are alter.
It is a very level-headed move on their
pert. The land sought to bo annexed
lies along the southern line of town
1 In In ranges 35 and 36. The petition
in support of tho project, will be ready
for presentation at the county court
nt the March session.
