Definite Information Oregon at a Big Disadvantage Gouge of the American Book
Company Shown Up Comparison of Prices in Adjoining States Union
Ticket will Settle the Question.
A matter for consideration during
the present campaign la first, the cost
of school books to the State of Ore
iron, (2) the reason why we are paying
nn unusuaJly high price (3) the meth
ods that have been followed by the
Aineilcan Book Company tha hold
era of the present contract for high
prices with the state (4) the remedy.
The state superintendent in his last
report states that there are enrolled
In our public schools 87,212 children.
Under even reasonable rates the cost
of school books for this array of chil
dren is large; but under extortionate
rates, ns now prevail, the cost Is enor
mous. We ore paying from twenty
per cent to forty per cent more for
school books and books of inferior
woith in point of mental development
than any other state In the Union.
This will be shown.
The contract made with the Ameri
can Book Company by the State Board
of Education went Into peration Jan
uary 1st, 189S, an! is t run until
January 1st, 1981. The most romark
abls feature of this contract Is that
the State Board of Education con
tracted with the American Book Co.
to furnish text books at a higher late
than the company's catalogue price;
ur, in other words, the Slate Board
bound the school children of this state
to pay a higher price for Bchool books

There Is not a public school book of
this company used In Oregon, but the
patrons are bound by contract to pay
more than the: American Book Co. asks
the public at large for the same pub
lications! Common sense tells us
that the contract of this company
with the state should be at figures be
low the catalogue price, since contrac
tors for large supplies furnish them at
rates much below those asked for
single ai tides. Under 'the present
contract over 87,000 school children of
our state are bringing a vast amount
of unnecessary money as a dally trib
ute to this corporation monopoly.

fornia books and publish at much less

In Washington the books are sup
plied under stringent state regulations.
In Idaho they are purchased direct
by a member of the State Book Com
mission and supplied to thu schools,
In Montana, by a law adopted lesi
than two years ago, a text book com
mission was created, consisting of su
perintendent of public Instruction, at
torney general, president of the uni
versity, president of the agricultural
college, and three public school teach
ers appelated by the governor, which
selects books under certain restrictions
and supplies them free to the schools

at the option of the districts. Of this
the state suix-rintendont says: "We
h.tvo solved the school book problem
In Montana."
In Orreon our text books are selpcted
for periods of six years by the county
school superintendents, 32 In number.
and 9 members of the state board of
examiners, on prices obtained by the
state board of education, consisting
of governor, secretary of state, and
superintendent of public Instruction.
Assuming that the state superintend
ent follows the example of past super
intendents and limits the number tif
ihe board of examiners to 9, it Is a
plain proposition that If the state su
perlntenJeiit Is 1n alliance with the
American Book Co., or any other book
trust, the 9 members would be corpor
ate monopoly voters. We have 32
county superintendents in the stat
and ii mrmbprs of the board of ex
aminers, making 41 votes to be used
in thu adoption of text books. A ma
jority of votes elects. If the Ameri
can Book Co. has the 9 members of the
board of examiners under control, It
will require but 13 more to make up
the desired majority. This plain as
sumption and supposition have arisen
in the slate and the outrageous school
book contract which the supporters of
our public schools ate compelled to
meet was saddled on the state by
methods suggested above, January 1st,
1833.
THE REMEDY.
Vote only for men who are known
by record or by pledge to oppow this
contract with the American Book Co.
and who will use all the power of the
law to provide our schools with as
good books, at as low cost, ns can be
had In any state of the Union. Our
candidates are irreproachable on this
proposition, their position Is known,
and they will If elected, gua'd the
Interests of the schools. The next
book election occurs in 1900, under a
state superintendent and secretary of
state and governor to be chosen at the
coining election.
Work and work hard for their elec
tion; be unceasing in your efforts; let
no opportunity pass by for bringing
this great question before our people.
