Tiue our legislators have voted them some money and gmnted them privilege. Yet who is it that b-lieves that either the privilege or the money allowed is fonnded in exact j isticebut wS a means to an end; and that end was a supply ot teachers eduoated op to a reasooable stan lard. Wa now hear the cry that the supply nf teachers is beyond the demand. Where did this over supply come iromT Monmouth, Drain, Weston, eto. His 'he s.ate an in vestment in these in stitutions worthy of tl e im- ? Aod if not need the state be forth, r taxed to mamtaia ibese fiction-? Has a few teachers or professors or presidents of fav. r ably located schools any rig'it to these leg islative pnvi'eg-s when it is manifest that they are not a public oeoes it? To the last question' we. say, TSo. There priv.l gel schools have advertised them selves, and reaped benefits beyond any ex pense or ffrt they have pnt forth, aod (rem the start the law ba been mischievous aod unfair Tbe' e is not a well regujited school in the state, nut of the ring, that haa not suffered from this ring oorsoy. With much respect fur our ex state school superintendent, wbo no doubt recommended tbe expenditure of money on these institu tions aud ths grantii g of powers held bv them, we must sav that the power of eer-tiri-tipg teachers is too great and the eUiin of the insti'utioni as state normal schools ton ins'gn fijant to lay any claim to appro pna'loua Irom our legitlifors.

Text Book Lazlslation- Editor Tutus-Mi UMAUiba: , Perhaps there is no question of more vital importance to the people of Oregon than the one to determine wbat text toika shall be used iu our schools. The cry of uniform ltv give us our preeit law; a law that haa given as some of the poorest text boeks that could possibly b) touud; a law that haa demonstrated its corrupting ii flieuce npon those whose duty it ia to execute it. I this age of dollars and cents it is folly for the pronle to delegate to forty or fifty mm a power that shall determine the ex penditure ot millions when it Involves a certain gain i f from 49 to 500 per cent. Tnere is perhaps no one thing in onr na tion that the pa pl- io general are so much imposed upon as this. A book ot from 100 to 200 psges io ordinary binding represents a cost of a very few cents; ao addition of more pages makes more jost aod calls for firmer binding. But I am safe in saying no school b ok in gsoeral uae represents an original coit of 60 cents. No wonder then that book agents have bjeu around, and no wonder that a cry of corruption and a general hubbub has dis turbed book-sullers for the ptstfew months. A school text book in Uregoo, like a United States seoatorahip, is chosen by a fe, and like the senatorship represents much prolix and honor. Thep-esent choice will deoar.d upon a msj rity of 41 votes or 21. These 41 ought to be good, wound, in corruptible citizsos; so ought all voters, bat we know they are not. Book publishers aod agents ong'it not to wiel 1 a corrupting influence; but tney do, and thereby hangs many "talea" 6f scandal. - . Now what shall be done? If uniformity can be developed ff im diversity, then re peal our text oonk )a, and tbroagh tbe -ttte board of eduottion arrange ths topics constituting s course for oar lorarnoo schools, that will give uniformity and at the same tim.3 tbe use of any oae or several different t xt books. Add to this a law giving the dietric s precinct or county the right to adopt text book, then the work will ba uniform tbroushoat the state, and the vexed text book que tioo settled the beet possible wiy. Aaao.t KbaZIXb Sudden Death of na Engine. Mr. Stmnel Tucker, a railroad engineer, died on his looomotiva this morntng at Bridal Veil.
