This same feeling was general throughout tho, state and resulted In tho American Dook Comnany being awarded t'ic contract for six years. 1 Mr. Lyman and a fcW other county superintendents ignored the petitions or the people and voted In favor of other publishers. This Is a mistake. Mr. Lyuian'd vote was endorsed by his re-election in a Republican county. Editor Jouknal. I think tli American Book Com pany regards me as, Jbclng unfriendly to their business methods and' many of their publications and I db' not wish to oiler anything In their defense or behalf, nor do I wisli to criticise Mr. Lyman in ills hostile attitude to wards that company. Ho Is Jo all probability actuated by proper and honest motives, but the fact remains that the people of this stato are and will be overwhelmingly opposed to a change of the series of books that will be proposed In 1900 the date when our present contract expires, Mr. Lyman announces that ho is an enemy of the American Book Company and he is pledged to exert himself to the utmost if elected to assist some other publisher in securing tho con tract and put a new list of books lc tho hands of the school children of this state. Mr, Editor, do you favor a change of school books? Mr, Ackcrman may not bo un-' frlenJly to our present publishers but I know ho is under no obligations whatever to them nor any other book linn and when tho proposition comes up lu 1000 and lie is superin tendent of public Instruction ho will be guided entirely by tho needs and demands of tho taxpayers and sohcol patrons of tho slate just as ho was in 1801. Whilo I favor tho election of J. II. Ackerrutih I llavo not written this lottorlna partisan spirit. Yours Truly, J. K. GltAHAM. is Idelb bn the Question of State Superintendent. Eon'ok Jeuknal: The Republi cans and Unionists are now In too heat of their campaign and arc botl vejrynat urajjy and properly, ad vising the people to yote for the man who will promulgate and upport tho right kind of principle; and In voting for candidates for some offices it would perhaps, bo wiser to consider first the man's political belief and his ability to stand by and support that belief and tnuko ills everyday life a second ary matter. For instance, being a Republican myself I could not vote, nor ask any one elso to vote for any free sliver hian of ahy school of poll tied to fill the Oflices 6r any represen tative! or tho people, such a state or United States representatives and senators or for president of the . United States. But wo have a very important olllco to 1111 Just nmv, that can' not, rrom any p-iintor view be considered a political one and whloli carries with it no political influence It Is necessary that, our Supt, of Public Instruction be a mart of sterling honesty, with plenty of courage to stand by his con victions; that he should have the ncc esstry educational"quallQcatlons, to gether with a thorough knowledge, of fie Intrinsic value of a book and ol a man, rather than that, he belong to any. particular school of politics. I nin sorry to have to say, that In all the, qualifications that go to make u,t the man for. tho office, .Mr. Lyman, tho candidate on tho fusion ticket, Is far superior to Mr. Ackcrman, the candidate on our ticket. As to Mr. Ackerman the first and most Impor tant reason why he should not be elected Is becauso he is, beyond all question a tool of tho American Book company,, a combination whose man ipulations havo wrought more mis chief to tho educational Interests of Oregon than the, combined Influence of all other agencies. By .the conditions of a contract en tered Into between the American Bopk company and our state board of education,. Oregon children arc forced to pay an average per cent Increaso On tie A. 11. Co'ri. own uatuloguo prices of IJjll; and an average per cint increase oyer prices paid to this same company In Idaho and Montana of 43.17. To say nothing of the ex- r.ot owned or maulpul tted ty any tubtl for sitof men norcun ho be irMr. Lyman la elected wb will 8jon 1k3 able to buy good school books at a reduction or nearly CO percent of what wo now pay for poor ones.

Notably Fish's Arith metics as well as some of tho other text bpoks now In use are not fit for a school room. Ono very strong proof that Mr. Ackcrman will do the bidding of this company, lies in thofact that Richard Williams of Portland, placed him In nomination and that he and his brother , Emmctt Williams, and also R. L. Edwards arc using all their energy and influence to get him elected; und that both Richard and Emmctt Williams and Edwards are prominent agents of the American Book Co. Through political custom and "gratitude" Mr. Ackerman will bo forced to continue tho present out rageous contract with "Dick" Wil liams' Book Co. Again Mr, Ackcrman proved him self a designing and selfish politician, rather than a gentleman, when ho in sulted Supt. Irwin at his own (Mult nomah county) teachers Institute, by bringing up what ho considered Mr. Irwins short comiugs in ofllce, at that time and place because, just then Mr. Irwin seemed to bo the man most likely to be nominated by tc Repub licans to succeed hlmsolf, and Mr. Ackerman wanted tho nomination. Such a man will stand by his own Interests, not by those of the people. Of Mr Lyman wo can not say what Is true of spiiio of the other candi dates on tho Union ticket, I. e. that he Is an olTIco seeker, disappointed or otherwise. The only public ofllce ho has, sought him. In a Republican county ho has Eoycral times been elected county superintedent of schools, on tho Populist ticket, with a flattering majority each time.

We rccognlzp that (he return of prosperity is due to the restoration of the republican party to power. "We are In favor of the maintenance of the present gold standard; Wfl ara unqualifiedly opposed to thp free coin age of slvpr and to all other schemes looking to the debasement of the cur rency and the repudiation of debt, We believe that the best mpnoy In the world is none too good to be assured by the government to the laborer as the fruit of his toll and to the farmer as tho price of his crop. We condemn the continued agitation of free silver as calculated to jeopardise the prosper ity of the country and to shake the confidence of the people In the rnaln tffaricp of a wise financial polioyt'wo particularly condemn as unpatriotic, tho efforts of the free silver agltatqrs to array class against class and sec tion against section; we declare that tho Interests of all classes and of all sections of our country alike demand a sound .and stable financial system. "While wo dcplorp thp fmrnlnanpe ot war, we recognize that the country Is on the eve of a war, undertaken for the vindication ot the national honor and the performance of a werk dictated by every instinct of humanity; we de clare that the administration 13 en titled In this conflict to the confidence and support of (he entire people. "YP are firmly attached to the prin ciples of the federal constitution; we recognize that representative govern ment Is ono of these principles, and we are opposed to any change In law or constitution which will abrogate this time-honored principle. "We are In favor of retrenchment and reform In state and county mat ters, "Wo aemand strict economy In pub llo affairs, and the abolition of all needless oflices and commissions. "The salmon Ashing Industry, so fruitful a source of revenue to the state, should be fostered, and to that ond we favor state aid In the artlflolal propagation of salmon, and their dis tribution In the wnters of the state. "Wo reaffirm our allegiance to the principles of the republican party of the United States, as enunciated by the republican convention In SL Louis In IS33, "We denounce the fusion party of Oregon as an aggregation of spoils men, who are ready to subordinate principles to offices. Each of the par ties to this compact Is willing to stul tify ll3elf and form alliances with ele ments which It has heretofore de nounced as dangerous and unfit to 'be Intrusted with power; we declare that good government cannot come from such an alllancp."
