Southern Oregon state normal school in this city. For
a time it appeared th at the local normal school bill
would be delayed and he placed on the same ballot as
the one in which the fate of the Eastern Oregon nor
mal school will Ik decided.
Having acquired their normal school through
legislative act, it now behooves the people of South­
ern Oregon to support the plea of Eastern Oregon for
their greatly needed normal school.
OregMThaa jor many years been laggard in the
training of youifg men and women for the teaching
profession. School statistics disclose that the state is
now compelled to reach out into other states each year
for many teachers.
The natural division of Eastern Oregon isolates
her from the two*normal schools now in existence i n 4
Ashland and Monmouth. This distance is loo much
o f a handicap for many young men and women who
might desire this advanced training. Eastern Oregon
should have the right to train its own young men
and women for its own schools, and the people of
Southern Oregon should be among the first to sup­
port this meritorious measure.

A chandler of commerce should exert its utmost

it should he always the leader.

The question of regular No­
vember election expenses will
loom, too, If any great amount of
money Is spent In the course of
the present campaign.
The
probhblllties are, however, that
this will be an Uhusually econ­
omical campaign,, not an .expens­
ive one. Election expenses are a
liability just now, not an asset.
With the Lorimer and New­
berry cases still in mind, candid
jlates for Cqngress know they
mustn’t spend too much on their
post-primary campaigns, anyway.
If they do, they’re aware they
are liable not to get their seats
after they’ve paid for them.
But the argument has been
that primary expenses are none
of Congress* business— that pri­
maries are elections for the re­
spective State legislatures to reg­
