TBS SCB00L BOOK QUESTION.
aaasaa w&'
We have received a pamphlet con
taining aixteen page from the Ameri
can Book Company gotten up in
answer to the charges made against
them by friends of other publishing
houses, and in answer particularly to
Portland's Committee of One Hund
red. The statements made by the
American Book Company in regard to
their orcanization and methods of
business are presented in a very clear
concise manner, thoroughly explana
tory of all the charges implied against
tbem and as a simple matter of jus
tice, if for no other reason, all worthy
of serious consideration. It answers
and treats upon every phase of the
book question, and we believe, honest
ly, every act from the incorporation of
the concern to the present time. The
document can be seen by all interested
upon calling at this office.
While Thk Mist is not particularly
interested in the welfare of the Amer
ican Book Company, or any other
company for that matter, it believes
that they should all be treated fairly
and impartially in the premises. But
it is our opinion that the books pub
lished by the above named company
are the equal, on the whole, of those
published anywhere in the woild ;
nonsquently, they should have an im
partial bearing upon the subject. We
say now as in the past that a change
of text books would be aa unwise
policy at this time from strictly finan
cial reasons, nnleas the change can
be made on a former basis, to-wit: an
exchange of the old books now in use
for the new ones without having to
pay a difference. This has been
thought possible, and if so the public
schools might profit by such a deal.
On the other hand should the change
entail any cash outlay on the part of
persons now having the old series,
such would be placing a heavy harden
on people who have children to
school. One thing is certain, the
knowledge contained in the present
text books has not yet, to any great
extent, been acquired by the children
of the common schools. Indeed, the
pupil should master the lower studies
before promotion to a higher, and un
til such time tbey should stick closely
to their present studies.
It may be urged that in adopting
new books the difference between the
old book exchanged for the new would
be small, but if the parent Jias not
this difference with which to pay, they
cannot obtain the required book and
in consequence the child is deprived
of its school privilege. This may at a
glance seem a small matter for object,
ion but nevertheless it is a fact which
strikes at the very root of the proposi
tion. '
So far as bribery and corruption
being charged against, the school su-
thorilies by certain cliques, we are not
disposed to believe it to' any great
extent. While of course in all pro
fessions there are unscrupulous per
sons, yet the majority of school super
intendants are actuated by honest
motives, and so far as we have beeu
able to learn the guardians of our
publio school interests have been giv
ing this muoh agitated matter a great
deal of study, going, if you please,
into the minutest detail of the con
troversy that in casting their vote on
the question it may be done intelli
gently. We wish to emphasize the
assertion that we do not believe the
. guardians of our public schools are of
the class of men to be bribed or co
reed into any deal by which those
fbey wwe fccted to serve would suffer.
TBS PUBLIC SCHOOL.
Whatever may be the cause or the
merits of the cause which is at present
attracting special attention to our
publio sohool, it is evideut that certain
faults in the system are daily becom.
iug more obvious to the general pub
lie. They are faults which can be
readily amended, and crystaliied pub
lic sentiment can insure the remedy.
The system U top heavy, and in this
respect is false to the genius which
established, which maintains and
which will ever foster education. The
greatest good to the greatest number
is the carriiual doctriue of democratic
institutions, and the publio school is
certainly democratic in its true scope
and purpose. .The safeguard of the
repulic is the intelligence of its citi
zens. To produce a comparatively few
of advanced learning is not the trne
purpose of the stale. lis duty is to
widely and wisely distribute ita favor.
The extent of the carricutum should
bo subservient to its thoroughness.
The great majority of those who are
entitled to the state's services in the
matter of education, and wbo moat
generously repay its care, are not able
to avail themselves of ita most ad
vanced instruction. The stern calls
of existence demand their attention
before they have reached . the age or
stage which enables them to take ad
vantage of it,
The greatest care should be taken
of the root, the warm growth-producing
influence at the bottom, not to the
pyrotechnics at the top. Practical
education, which tits the stndent for
further development through his in
Date love of knowledge and desire for
learning, is what ia due from the state
to ita children. Thia ia all that ia re
quired of it. There ia no occasion to
teach any foreign language in our
public schools. See that the instruct
ion in pure English be thorough and
let it no at that. There ia no occasion
to teach music, drawing or oratory,
spite of the published remark of one
of the directors that he would rather
give up penmanship than music,
argumentum ad abatirdum. Music is
an accomplisement wilb wiiich the
public aa inatructora has nothing to
do; drawing and oratory can be aelf
acqnired by those who have the talent
and the industry necessary to success.
Nobody finds fault with any necessary
expense of the public schools, but let
the little children have tbeir share.
Tbey may not reflect the radiance of
innumerable "professors" in the eyes
of a dazzled public, but schools can
prosper without footlight accesaoriea
Strengthen the bottom, lop off the top
we ahall have better results at less
expense. Sun.
It is indeed unfortunate for the
state of Oregon that a United States
senator is to be elected b.V the legisla
ture in January. Especially is it un
fortunate since there are so many
matters of public importance which
should be dealt with by non-partisan
methods, and which the people so
much need accomplished. However,
it is a "condition aud not a theory"
that confronts us, and a republican
senator is a national necessity at this
time; but too, much valuable time
should not be consumed in making
the selection. This is not a time for
bickering, and whoever the choice
may be it should be made promptly
so that the assembly can settle down
to the business for which the people
allow it to exist. The aspirant who
would assist or even permit a long
drawn-out contest in the election of
senator at this session thereby retard
ing more important legislation, is not
worthy the high honor which he seeks.
It is all well enough to aerve tbe "dear
people'' in a six-year term aa United
States senator, but the people of Ore
gon have matters more "dear" to tbeir
hearts just now than the senatorial
complication. We say again that
upon the assembling of that august
body the senatorial contest should be
very promptly settled so that legislat
ors may get down to matters more di
rectly in line with the public's present
requirements.
No man should be elected to the
United States senate wbo does not
favor the coinage of all silver pro
duced by tbe mines of the United
States. Three of our representatives
in the national legislature have al
ready declared themselves, and to
elect one who is not in accord with
them woul J be inconsistent.
In Clackamas county road taxes are
paid in cash and collected at tbe same
time other taxes are. This system has
been in vogue two years. At first tbe
people were very much opposed to it,
bat since they have seen the good re
sult they would not return to the old
system, so we are informed.
It is to be hoped the attempt to tow
logs to San Francisco will never suc
ceed, and from the result of the two
recent attempts the outlook is any
thing but encouraging along tbat line.
We have plenty of mills, men and
ships to cut, handle and transport the
product of Oregon's forests to tbe
marketa of tbe world.
The elections next Tuesday will de
termine whether the people want the
McKinley law or the Wilson "perfidy
aud dishonor" law. Watch the result,
PROPOSED AMENDMENTS.
Conntj Jadfrs Hold m Convention
In Portland Last Week.
The county Judges of the state held a

not be necessary to copy the tax-roll for
theshe:iff, but it will be sufficient for tbe

the amount of taxes due from each indi

"That the sheriffs of the several counties
shall collect tbe tax as provided for in said

"To abolish tbe making of a military li-t

form the work.
"That the law of 1803 be so changed tbat
when the treaiurer does not comply with
hisdutvhe be charted with interest at 1
per cent a month for money retained when
warrants should he paid."
Thk Hepimer Gazette intimates that
Stephen A. Lowell, of Pendleton, will
be a candidate for United States Sena
tor next winter. We would like to
add that the republicans might do
worse than to select Mr. Lowell. In
deed, there are a number of men in
tbe Hate, any of whom would fill tbe
honorable position wilb good results.
