The School Book Question.
Th» communication from the
pen of Claude Tliayer, publiwlied
in'another column, and relating to
School Book«, taken in connec
tion with Mr. Letcher'» article in
la»t week’» isnue, demand» we
think gome notice from the editor.
Ordinarly we prefer to let corres
pondent» discus»
the subject»
they write upon, without edit
orial interference, but in this ca»e
there seem» to lie a misiinderstand
ing, which ought to corrected.
As Mr. Thayer truthfully says
‘'the school director» have no choice,
whatever, in the selection of the
books that are to be used in the
school».” xlie matter of Helen
the books is taken entirely on
the hands ot the director», lr
fixed by statute. The Unit
Text-Book Law was passed
1888, and the clause ofthe act r<*
furring to text-books reads H B
follows:
“It in hereby provided that sai<l neries «ball be
Introduced in all the public school« of the State
on or before the first (lay of October (188s) next
after the canvHSs of such vote by the State board
of education in »lucordance with the pro
vision for changing text books; and any district
ncgleotm g to provide for the introduction of the
authorized series of text books shall forfeit its
proportion ofthe school fund for the succeeding
year, and every year thereafter until all of said
series are introduced; provided, that when the
persona in any school district between the ages
of four and twenty years, as shown by the
clerk’s last yearly report, shall equal one thou,
sand or more in number, the directors of such
district shall have lhe right to select lext-l>ooks
for the high schools only, but no change in the
text-books in any district shall be made at any
other time than that provided in this act; pro
vided further, that not hlng in this act shall
prevent the State board of education ordering
the Superintendent of Public Instrnction to
issue special circulars to tin* county superlnten
dents and Stale board of examiners to select
as ill the regular vote any new text books or
series of text books ill use, when in the judge
inentofthe State board of education any text
books or series of text, books in use is supplied
at an unreasonably high price, i>r is found lobe
excelled by some more recent publications in
that branch, or for anv good and sufficient
cause; and it is hereby provided that the county
superintendents and State board of examiners
shall select a text book or series of text-books
immediately as in answer to regular citculars
of the sit erintendent of Public Instruction and
re|>oit to them their choice, and such selection
shall Immediately thereafter be made known
officially ns in the regular selection; and such
text-book or aeries of text-books «0 selected
slinll be introduced in all the common schools
of the Slate within six months afte
such
announceinent, and any district neglecting to
so provide for the introduction of such text
books or sei lea of text-books shall forfeit its
proportion of the school fund for each year
thereafter until it complies with this require
ment. *
many other were naturally mislead
by the action of the former board
of directors, in allowing other
books to be used, and not being
lawyers they did not know the
motive of the order made by the
new board, and lienee criticised
it.
Prof. Walker and all other teach
ers in this state are deserving of
the profound sympathy of till the
patrons of the schools, if they are
required to teach from trashy or
imperfect text-books, but there is
no way of remedying the matter
except by law In the mean
time if any of the teachers
desire to use oilier text-books as
merely supplementary, and are so
anxious to use them as to furnish
them themselves, it would seem to
ns tliev certainly ought to have
the privilege of doing so.
It will now be in order for Mr.
Bryan, of Mexico, to explain how
it is that 1897 proved to be the
best business year in the United
States witnessed by the present
generation.
The
explanation
from Mr. Bryan would be especi
ally fitting in view of his state
ments (luring lite last campaign to
the effect that free coinage was the
only means by which this country
could hope or expect to attain any
degree of prosperity. It may be
that Mr. Bryan yet fa'ls to see
anything but signs of •‘temporary”
prosperity, but as lie has not said
anything on this subject for a coup
le of monllis, it is to be presumed
that ho admits wliat the rest of
the United States has gladly pro
claimed. Mr. Bryan might obtain
some assistance from Dunn’s Re
view, n generally accepted author
ity, which among a host of figures
indicating prosperity in various
branches, shows that in failures
1897 was not only the best yea r
since 1892, but on the whole the
best ever definitely known.
The Madrid government puts the
case rather inidly in admitting
that it has received “disagreeable
news” fmtn Cuba. It is getting
the worst intelligence from that
quarter that it ever obtained. The
riots in Havana give a new element
of perplexity to the Cuban problem
Two cil'cuiusfiiiiceH— Blanco's fail
lire in the field and the rejection
of tiieautonomy proposition by the
foes and friends of Spain on the
island- are responsible for the out
break. Intervention by the United
States may become ueccessary any
day as a protection to American
interests, and that might mean
war between this country and
Spain. In any case, Spain’» hold
on the island is far feeblai at this
moment than it ever was before
since lhe Spanish (lag was first
raised in that region. St. Louis
