This is a view worthy of consid J

Representative Sheldon and
Senator Zeller want to make the I

ture cut out the preparatory;
branches of these schools, in-;

and they are doing magnificent
work as colleges . Is the legisla
ture to face about so soon in its
educational policy? With the de
velopment of the high school
system all over the state what
will become of these colleges do
ing similar grade work.
Their plan* contemplates sav
ing additional appropriations for
these colleges. The increased ap- ;
propriations are largely in in-1
creased suport funds made abso
lutely necessary by the times.
What are the colleges to do with
out adequate funds to run on?
What will become of their faith
ful teachers and attendants, who
have stood by their posts of du
ty through all these trying
times? Is there no obligation of
the state to them? In the new
appropriation bill are they not to
be provided for and taken care
of? Surely the legislature is not
going to refuse them a salary

It is the wrong time for any
such radical change.—Columbus

San Francisco.
San Francisco.—A tablecloth 8 feet
wide by 10 feet long was presented to
Judge Graham as the last will and
testament of Mrs. Helen Scott and was
rejected by the court, not because of
its size, but because Mrs. Scott forgot
date the will when she wrote it.
Mrs. Scott, who was a milliner, com
mitted suicide in her flat at 1034 Sut
