TUB SCHOOL TEXT UUOK TRUST.
Under the head of "Ignorant Jour
nalism," the Portland CUruulcl says:
"TJIB CAI'ITAb JoUH.f Ali of rjalem,
an Intermittent shtet of doubtful lie
eige and wort) doubtful Intelligence,
hM spent Its forui in dlsousslon of tbe
text book question, aod Ibrotu it
columns open to the learned grilngew
of Marlon county tbat farther light
may be reflected upon tbe subj -ct. A
communication in its pages of 'lutsdaj
last from a fertile brained rerlil-nt u
Jefferson, unveils tbe intelllgenta thai
Oregon is making tbe grandest mistakt
of modern tlmea by not compiling and
publishing its own text books.
"This erudite citizen sornfully
brushes aside tbe great educators of tbt
age as being no better, possibly not a
good in bis estimation, or so well quail
lied to impart instruction to the learner
as hundreds or local educators wbos
brains might evolve text books of supe
rlor merit and lesser cost to tbe tax
payers. To the granger-populist all
things are simple, even the workings
of the Creator. Governments are
primer studies to him. And the mat
ter of stealing tbe copyright of text
books and publishing them here for the
Bake of keeping tbe business In tbe
state, would have no terrors for hici-.
The puerile attempt of incompetent
journals to discuss subjects of which
they have no understanding is too
ridiculous and absurd to excite more
than passing notice. With tbe return
of cooler weather the Journal's editor
will again be at the helm with text
book in hand."
We do not know the person who ed
its tbe Portland Chronicle. It is a little
weekly paper printed at East Portland
and generally understood to be one of
those prostitute newspapers tbat are for
hire to anybody who wants to use their
columns for any dirty or selfish pur-
poses or to rob the public under guise
of legislation.
There are euch newspapers In the
stale and, of course, the wholo pack
will bo yelping in the interest of tbe
school book trust. But they will not
deter The Joukxax. from doing its
duty. The Jouknal will in a few days
print tbo law passed by the last legis
lature by which it is now sought to
force a change of text books and fasten
tbe hlgbpnced books upon tbo necks
of tho people of this state for six years
to come. No one asked for tbat law.
No ono is asking for a change in text
books. All Intelligent educators, who
aro not "In the trust" are against it.
There is no evidence tbat it would give
us better books or cheaper books. It is
certain that It would compel a change
in many text books with which fami
lies are now already supplied and fix
prices for six years at present trust
rates, It la an attempted outrage at a
bad time, when it should not succeed.
We propo&o to show tho Influences tbat
crowded tho bill through tho legisla
ture at tho last session. The whole
proceeding should be struck down.
A state superintendent of schools going
out of ofllco has no right to ram such a
thing down the throats of four hun
dred thousand people when the
jMore thought of having to buy an
equipment of new and different text
books for a family will bring tears to
the eyes of thousands of fathers and
mothers and drive thousauds of chil
dren from attending publlo j&cbooj,
'The ixiiiof vt i!io East rortland Chron
icle is probably some ex-school ofllclul
about to retlro from oflloe aud seek
lug Job at the hands of tho school
book trust.

"On gets all tbe newj of tbe world at
large, beside tbe political questions of
Jtbe day ate ably discisted, and oto
good newspaper read carefully will
furnish one food for thought mutb
longer than tbe idle tales of "Comfort,"
don't you think to?" "Well, I'll tell
you bow that is: Women can't vote In
Oregon, and according to my notion it
wouldn't do much good to fool away
time reading politics" Is the answer
tbat is invaribly made. "But wouldn't

tbat women don't know enough to
vote, and I reckon he's about right,"
"perhaps so," we assent mentai'y, but
only says. "Haven't you Just eald that
you took do Interest in politics became
you couldn't vote; and now that jou
don't care to vote because you don't
know anything about politics? '
Now I believe tbat the women of
Oregon can have tbe ballot at what
lime thpy choosr but they most work
for it.
The "Lords of Creatlon"(?j are rlgln
wben they say women don't know
enough to yote tbat is so long as tlie
r strict the observation to politics (foi
of course no ono In this advanced daj
would have tbe presumption to sy
tbat womans intellect is not equal to
man's) Ob.that tbe m9tto hune with
in every household might be-not "God
Blesa our Homes," but "First deserv
aud then desire!'' what a wouderfu'
transformation would be wrought!
when I beard my sisters of tbe "White
Ribbon Army" at the recent conven
convention in Palem making out tbeir
committee to petition the Legislature
for Suffrage, I said, never, till tbs
women of Oregon are ready for tbe bal
lot shall they have it. if I can prevent
It. The argument lu invariably brought
up that there are many men too Ignor
aet to vote, and, taken as a class, why
should not women be granted tbe same
prlvelege? Ah! there's what we are
getting at. There are men today, hui
dreds of them, who fail to understand
the first principles of political economy
who haven't tbe faintest conception of
tbe vast Importance of one single vote,
who go on from year to year polling a
vote tbat is slowly and surely building
a barrier between them and their best
interests: and wby should a lot of
women of tbe same stripe be turned
loose to Increase tbe evil ? True, there
are enough of intellectual women to
! offset their less brilliant sisters, and
right there is whero tbeir work lies.
The great work of sharpening wits
that are dull from disuse, and if the
good W. C. T. U. sisters want to exer
cise their persuasive powers at petition
ing, let them labor and pray and plead
that this terrible evil of ignorance be
abolished from our land; to petition
tbat no man be permitted to cast a
vote without first answering those que!'
tlons that proves bis knowledge of our
government's inner workings. . a
In this day Ignorance should be
rightly considered a stigma of disgrace.
Women suffer equally with men from
poor laws, and if I didn't care about
politics, I should be ashamed to admit
it! But he who allows himself to be a
worm, must expect to bo trodden upon,
and it Is by our own efforts tbat we
must arise up and out- of this worm
condition, and primarily in the reform
we must attack the venomous litera
ture that at this present moment Is
flooding tbe country. Once a year I
believe it Is they have a sort of Post-
office house cleaning when all the un
claimed papers of tbe years accummu
lation are Bold or destroyed.
Recently I bad the pleasure of look
ing over a stock of this kind and 1 was
horrified, yes, actually horrified at the
reading matter that makes "homo
happy." "Comfort," "Happy Hours,"
"Companions" and "Visitors" of dif
ferent kinds were all there aud tboso
dozens of other worthless little "story
papers" that aro worse to my mind
than tho "Police News", and the "Ga
zette" that have been forbidden the
use of the post office. Ah sisters! to
arms against things that aro making
us weak, foolish and vislouary,

SLAVES TO THEIR HOMES.
Physicians Prescribe Paine'sCelery
.,Co,mpound to Such Women.
There are thousands of tired wom-n
today on tbe verge of creaking down
because they are martyrs to their own
false Ideas of domestic duty.
They are slaves to their homes; and
their exalted notions of absolute order
and cleanliness keep them from morn
ing to night upon tbe rack of mental
and physical torture until they grow
old, careworn, nervous, irritable and
sickly in their foolish strugglo with
dust.
Only tbe exceptionally strong can
stand tbe debilitating effect of over
heated rooms, lack ot. fresh air and ex
ercise, over-burdened stomachs and
tbo artificial, nervous, hurried life of so
many good wives and motbers.
Just as nature prompts young chil
dren to cry and gtow irritable wben
hungry, so poorly fed, over-worked
nerves cry out for their proper food by
twinges of rheumatism ana neuralgia.
It is nature's language in each case.
Just as tbe fretting, crying cbild
drops to refreshing sleep after being
properly fed, exactly so the nervous
sy.tem feels right away the equa'fzing,
retdoriug action of Painc's Celery com
pound. A fair trial of this grentfst of,all
remedies briugs strength to tired, "run
down" men aud women, and frees
tbem permanently from debility, heart
palpitation, dwpondeut feelmge and
inability to sleep because of uervous
weakness.
Mrs. B. E. Welch, of Lynn, Mass.,
whose portrait appears above, writes as
follews:
"I was taken ill last January with
tbe grip and it left me with the rheu
matism in my hands and feet. My
feet were swollen so bad and were so
sore tbat I found it bard work to walk.
My husband brought me home two
bottles t)f Paine's celery compound.
Beelng tbat it was doing me good, I
continued its use until I bad taken five
bottles wben I was free from rheuma
tism and have not bad any since.
"Today I can truly say that I am as
well as I ever was lu my life."
That's it. Paine'a celery compound
makes people .well.
