The bill should be passed at

licity that is demanded of candidates

and necessary these days In presi
dential campaigns. AVe are through
with secrecy, mystery, addition and
division. Everything: should be
known in regard to contributions and

people's business, and no progressive
can oppose full publicity without be
traying hyprocrisy,
"Governor 'Wilson lias just declared
by the way, that, law or no law, he
will insist on full publicity before as
well as after the election. He wishes
the public to know the source of b
campaign fund, the names of the con
tributors, the amounts contributed,
etc. This Is a creditable and com
mendable attitude. No candidate to

Editor East Oregonlan:
Why don't you progressive editors
get busy and turn on the light illumi
nating tho school-book trust a bit? Of
ull the destructive and heartless out
rages ever inflicted upon tho com
mon people none was ever more con
ducive to ignorance, truancy and
crime. A!l this agitation about the
high cost of living affecta " for the
most part only the people's stomach,
but here the octopus hurls his Javelin
directly at the people's brain. This
annual change of text-books in our
public schools makes school attend
ance prohibitive and becomes respon
sible for no Inconsiderable degree of
the Ignorance and crime among the
very classes whom the public school
seeks to elevate. Many a sacrificing
mother has rubbed her knuckles off
over the wash-tub, Inspired by the
pride and Joy which it would give
her to send her children to school In
the fall In order that they might have
advantages which she never knew,
only to have her hopes blasted by the
cruel tribute exacted by this merci
less octopus, the text-book .trust. I
know one mother whom It will cost
$20 if there is a change in text book
this year. Where Is the responsibility
for this injustice? Some say that the
superintendent and the school board
get a raKe-orr lor recommending a
change. This hardly seems believable.
Put, were I an editor, I should deem
the subject worthy of investigation.

e.i is a problem for close investiga
tion. The most hopeful thing this pa
per has to offer Mr. Milnes and such
an he is the information that Gov
ernor West, among his many whole
some activities, has his eye on the
text book trust and l)as what appears
to be an excellent plan for dealing
with that particular octlpus. The
governor became impressed some
months agr with the fact that the
etate text book commissions of the
past have not answered all require
ments. Such commissions in the past
have generally been composed of dis
tinguished public men from various
parts of the state. They have known
but little of actual school problems
r.nd have not gone sufficiently deep
ir.to the-subject to get the best re
sults. .So they have been rather easy
prey for the book trust.
Several months ago Governor West
tiecided to follow a new line of ac
tion In naming the text book com
mission. He planned to name as
members of the commission some ac
tual school workers who know from
first hand experience what is needed
In the way of books. Furthermore,
he decided to keep the 'appointments
a secret for several months so as to
permit the new members to make in
vestigations without being hounded
by agents of the trust. Very likely
they are engaged in such work at the
present time and if the results pro
duced are as hoped for by the gover
nor there will soon be less room for
complaint upon this subject.
A wholesome thing about the presi
dential election this year is that more
attention Is being
given than ever be
fore to the subject
of campaign ex
penses. People are
inquiring everywhere who donates
the money with which to make our
presidents. There are many even
who would like to see the presiden
tial elections financed directly by the
government. It is a plan that may
t,e adopted some time too.
Of the papers to discuss this sub
ject very recently the Chicago Rec
ord-Herald is one of the most able.
