Aa will bo suca gi the rea. choice .verslty of choice that will be left to the state board of educa tion, which is practically Mr. McElroy, who drew tho bill himself and would practically havo the dlsignatlng of choice of text books for the next six years for the 400,000 people of Oregon, with sohool book depositories to estab lish In each county, probably controll ing the sale and contraot price of half a million dollars worth of school books. It will be seen each of the "leading educators" has some change to propose. Each has a pet school toxt book that be preters. Tbd result of their votes would be that a great many changes would be forced upon the people. Tbe slight change each ono Indicates would result in a complete change in the aggregate, with the changes tho board would probably order, The atato board Bhould beenolned from forcing a change of text books In tbeso hard times when tho people can hardly pay their taxes and live. All these professors and school polltl ciansand "leading educators'' are say ing: "We do not want a change. This law would not be favorable to a change. It would not be helpful to the school book trust," etc. If thta.ta.trm.,. why not lea?e .aeatten a tbey are. WHy set all thie maebiaery In motion at a time when Mr. McElroy le going out of office? The people did not see fit to continue Mr. McElroy In office. Why should his machinery for control of tho text book business in Oregon bo Imposed upon the people for six years more T Why should hie dy nasty be prolonged ? If the people un der tholr new tstata superintendent and their now state board ot education, composed entirely of new men, could by any manner of means, secure cheaper text books, even by state pub lication In the next six years, tbey should not be barred of the privilege.
