Algona Normal School movement gains statewide support
A wide chorus of state newspapers backs locating a Northwestern Iowa normal school in Algona. The Des Moines Register and others urge Algona as the right site, while legislators discuss district court reductions and state leaders like Senator Allison receive praise for continued Republican strength in Iowa. The Louisiana Lottery seeks life via a $100,000 bribe, prompting governor Nichols’s response amid a looming flood threat.
