Resolution*. The following resolutions wdre passed by the Jasper county' teachers, at their association which occurred last Friday and Saturday, Nov. 30th and Dec. Ist: RESOLUTIONS. our state institutions at Bloomington, Terre Haute and Lafayette have been crippled by want of proper financial support, and compelled from time to time to surrender many of their best dnen, becauso of better salaries offered by other institutions better provided for in other states, be it That we as teachers of Jasper county deplore the illiberal spirit that our legislatures have shown towards our state university, state normal and Purdue University in the matter of appropriations for equipment and maintenarce, and that we most urgently petition the coming session of the legislature, through our representatives Messrs. Phares and Spitler, to grant these institutions such aid as they need and deserve. uc ’solved , that a copy of this petition to be signed by the members of this association, be handed to our representatives, and with the request that they use their best efforts to secure its favorable recognition. Resolved, that it is the sense of the teachers of our county that the usefulness of the state un : - versity, great as it has been, will be very greatly * increased by its removal from its present inconvenient and almost inaccessible location at Bloomington to Indianapolis. Resolved, that additional safeguards be thrown around the se- | lection of county superintendents, and superindenterts of all towns having com- ■ missioned high schools, by I the enactment of a law requiring ! all such superintendents to hold !a life state license, or a diploma from the state normal school or from the pedagogical depart- ! ment of the state uuiviversity. Revolved, That the Indiana book law should be so imended

as to place the sale and distribu tion of all text books for the public*scfipols of the stt t wholly in the bands of the dealers without th'e intervention ‘W supervision of any of the public school officials. Whereas, the teachers of Jasper county by right and justice are entitled to the full benefit of all legal holidays occurring during the school term, said right being recogninged by every stato superintendent for more than twenty years, and by our courts of justice, and our own county superintendent, be it Resolved, that we sincerely deplore the refusal of some of our township tru3<e3s to grant us our rights in this direction, and now most respectfully but earnestly insist upon the same. The boards of trustees of the towns of Rensselaer and Remington have long recognized those rights of their;, teachers, and there exists no good reason why the county teachers should be deprived of theirs.

Resolved, that the Jasper County Teachers, Association subscribe, and pay for one membership in the Indiana State Teachers’ Association, and one in the Northern Indiana Teachers’ Association; and that the Jasper County Association annually, at its regular session, dect one delegate to attend each >f aforesaid associations. Said delegate to be invested with full r>ower to represent this associaion in all matters pertaining to the educational work of the dOate. Said delegate to defray his own expanses. E. W.
