the purpose of Normal Schools is solely for equip-
ping teachers for work in the public school*, noth­
ing but theory and practice of teaching should be
taught General education can be acquired in the
public school*, the State University. or the Oregon
Agricultural College. A better plan would be to
attach a Normal dc|«artment to each of theae last-
named college*.
The Legislature should remember that the Ref­
erendum power is yet with tne people. If the ap­
propriations are too excessive the Referendum will
be again invoked and next time there will be no
misunderstanding, as evidently was the case here­
tofore.

Without doubt next year we will see some rail­
road wors in tins immediate vicinity. Tne South­
ern Pacific will change the line somewhat in order
to get a good crossing of the .South Santiam. A
site for a bridge, the N ews learns, has been se­
lected a short distance below the Lebanon wagon
bridge. Just where the new line w II deflect from
the present right-of-way is probably not known to
anybody except the constructing engineer. The
most natural, and probably least expensive in the
end, route for a railway line is through Scio, via
Richardson's Gap, then onto Letanon. This would
be the most direct route, and the heavy grade into
and out of Urabtrev would be avoided. This line
would also bring the road several miles nearer the
Crabtree timber belt In addition to the S. I’,
change, we understand that the C. A E. will build
a logging n>ad from some point on the main line
near Munkers up into the Crabtree timber belt,
where Mr. Hammond has large holding*. Still
another possible railway through Scio will be the
electric line now located from Salem to Stayton.
It is reasonable to suppose that, in time, electric
lines will lie established wherever they will jiay,
and a line through Scio on to Ix'latnon. with a
branch leading to the Sodas in the mountains, cer­
tainly ought to furnish sufficient inducements for
the building of the line.
