The measuro will provide that Latin be taught in the common schools if any pupil shall desire to study that language.and that all applicants for teachers' licenses be compelled to pass an examination in Latin before a certifícate is issiied. Strong opposition to the bilí has developed among teachers, and a fund is being raised to employ a lobby to defeat the measure.
