A Ringing Editorial Review of the Situation and Outline of its Oasis of Pro
ccedure When It Sits in Session at the State Capital From the
, Newspaper of the Head of Adopting Body.
In 1898 tho question of Toxtbook Iteform was in ado n etalo campaign Jhbiio, by
tho nomination of County Supt. II. 8. Lyman of Clatsop county for Stato Supt.,
of public Instruction against County Suptt, J. II. Aokorman of Multnomah county
for tho famo ofllco. Lyman and Ackormau had votod on opposite aides of the
question in stato adoption of textbooks. Supt. Lyman had published In that cam
pahjnin leading news papers of tho state exposures of tho toxtboon trust and lis
political mothode in Oregon. Ho canvassed tho stale in company with Stato
Supt. Brown of Washington. Tho Itepubllcan candidate denied all connection
with tho Toxtbook trust and was aloctcd by a reduced majority. Hut public
sentiment bad boon created for tho Reform.
Tho groat legislative battlo for Toxtbook Iloform wf.s fought out in tho reg
ular session of 1800, when the Daly commission bill was passed against tba united
opposition of the oxlsting monopoly that has stood practically unchanged for
twonty years. All tho toxtbooks havo been furnished by ono corporation, except a
spollor published by another firm, at their highest printed retail prices. Tho final
round in tho prolongod strugglo for textbook roform In Oregon was fought out
last December and Govornor Geer mndo his appointments in January, 1001. the
Commission nnmod gavo genoral eatisfatction atH lias not been criticised as mado
up In tho interest of any publishing house, or to prolong or protect tho oxlsting
contract, but la considered composed entirely in tho interest of roform. On th0
second Monday tn July tho Oregon Stato Textbook commlhsion meets at the
Stato Capitol to adopt textbooks tor tho public schools. This commission Is
composed of Harvey W. Scott, editor of tho Orcgonlan; Win. 8. Ladd, bankor,
of Portland; W. S. Oolvlg, lawyer, oi Jacksonville; P. S. Campbell, Prosldont of
tho Monmouth Normal school; 0. A. Johns, lawyot, Baker City. Theso flvo
gcntlomon will hoar presentations of tho merits of textbooks by tho publishers
and agents at tholr ofllco in tho Stato Houio and at tho end of flfteon days will
make such adoption as bmhis In tholr opinion best for tho schools and the pooplo.
This is tlio most important commission of an educational character that has
over been constituted in Oregon, It Is important notalono because of tho abuses
to wldch tlie toxtbook businoss Is liable, but bocauso tho pcoplo havo been j ay
ing mora inonoy for textbooks than tho pooplo of other States and havo not had
as good books as other statos. Tho prlco and durability o( toxtbooks aro Import
ant. The deinond of tho times, and tho compotltivo conditions of udoptlon which
tho Daly bill attempts to socuro, should work toward doepor and better printed
and better bound toxtbooks. Moro important than prlco is tho litorary, moral
and othical quality of tho books adopted,
Jlooks that will not rob tho parents pockotbooks, or blind tho eyoB of children
sro important. But books that teach Bound principles, make for culture and
roflnomont, for boudiI morals and humanity, aro far moro Important logardluss
of price. Thoro is a wolUfoundod belief that tho present aorios of textbooks do
not produco writers or thinkers, do not stimulate the oreativo faculllos. Those

Parents and teachers aro greatly In
terested in tho work to bo done by tho
J Stato Text-Book Commission next
month. Among many tnoio is a vague
fear that sweeping changes will be mndo
in the schools of the state. Others fear
that not change enough u ill be madu.
Teachern who tear for loo radical action
do not rolish tho prospect of being
obliged to familiarize themselves with
now books. It is caster for them to
stick to tho books they havo grovn up
with, irrespective of tlio morit of tho
works. Parents who think the cost of a
completo chango would he very great aro
inclined to urge the retention ot as
many oi tho present serieB as can bo tol
erated, ovou though othor books of su
perior merit might be offered. With tho
parents it is largoly a question of ex
ponso.
Tho public at largo has a very Iniulo
quato idea of the coast of school books
in this Btato. This, in a measuro. lias
arisen irom wnu statements mane rc
uradinz tho profits and nowor o! tho
concern thatnow Bupplles practically all
the books used in Oregon, and from the
fact that tho public does not havo tho
means of getting nccurato information
iri Htn otilitawit It la 1nnurti liAtnAtmt
that Icbs than 100,000 children attend
tho public Bchools of tho stato, There
is crodiblo authority for tho statement
that yearly sales oi school books do not
exceed $55,000. This is about
CO cents per yoar per pupil,
including high school and supple
mentary books, These lattor aro nbovo
the ovorago in price, bo the cost of books
usou in the ordinary graded and un
graded schools In tho state, bolow tlio"
high school, Is materially loss than 00
cents per yoar for each pupil. This,
however, is aftor the stato is ouco fully
stocked. It would cost much moro than
this to put In ii full supply of new books
at onco. without any onset or allowance
for old books oxchangod. And ovou with
tho usual oxchango allowance (lie cost
of golting the stato Blocked with now
textbooks' would some what exceed tlio
annual cost of keeping up tho supply
without an oxchango privilege This
extra cost, however, would bo much less
than is probably supposed.
If a clean Mwoep should bo mado, if all
tho old surles should be diecatded and
entirely now books udopted by thu utat
board, tho cost to tho pooplo of tho state
would not bo heavy, for tho reason that
tho new contractors would bo obliged to
allow a liberal credit for old hooks ex.
changed for new ours. In tho Btato of
Washington only hooka that can bo used
again, that aro practically now, were re
ceived in exchange No Mich limit or
modiilcallon Ib permitted Oregon, tho ox
chango price being particularly dollned
hb "the price tho pupil must pay for a
now book when ho surrenders an old
book upon thu same subject and of tho
tamo grade, heretofore legally adopted
by the State Board of Education and In
actual or contemplated use in tho public
schools of Oregon." 'Iliero is nothing to
require mat mo out books no in good
condition. In Washington the law r-
luirw; mm mo excimiiKO prlco of a book
should not exceed one-fifth tho contract
retail prlco; that Is, that tho old hook
turned In should stand for four-fifths the
' ?;.tno mvr uook nd only the
timer nun ueou no paid Hi etHi. In Ore
uon the Bxohuugu prlco is left with the
loxt-IJook Commission to arrange, and
It lu one of tho important duties of the
commission. t, i - .4
All the books required i by a pupil in
the public schools ot Oregon In his en
tire school life, from the primary grade
up to but not including the High School,
do not cost, at present prlceH, to exceed
flJ. II 11 child complete this course in
eight ycars.tho average cost is l 60 per
year for hooka. This Is on thy suppo.!
Hon that ho gets all his Looks now. As
a matter of fact, howovor.a largo propor
tion pf tho school children oi the statu
get tho books their brothers or sisters
used and passed. This saving In pnul
out families Is a largo element In bring
ing tho annual cost of school books in tho
state down from a figure near $160,000.
as it would bo if every school child had
brand now books, to something llko
f 55,000. Another reason why tho fact is
so far bolow tho rough estimate is that
lower-grado pupils, for which tho cost of
books is small, greatly exceed in num
ber those of the higher grades, which use
comparatively extonsivo books.
Now, If tho retail prlco oi ft book be,
for example, fixed at $1 under stato con
tract, it does not follow that overy school
child in tho stato requiring such book
must pay f I In cash for it If that were
true, as so many pcem to believe, tho
cost of changing n series of text-books
would bo great, so groat that public sen
Unient would hardly annrovo thodiscsnl.
Ing of any old book if its quality woro at
all tolerahle. Hut chango of text-books

which wbb offered for readoptlon, and
tho new book was offered froo in ox
chango. This would havo glvon a now
two Ic or an old and ono without nuy
additional compensation, and tho chango
from poor to good books would not hsvo

liberal offer wbb not accepted and tho
old and inferior books wero rcadopted
and continued in sorvico until tho pas
sago of tho present law, since which time
these geographies havo bnen largely re-
ureu ami supcrBoucu uy bettor ones,

pany, however. In many of tho schools

clination to chango bnotcs, howovor, for
tho short period boforo thoro would bo
another lecal adoption by tho Btato.
If a completo chango wero to bo made
this year and books to tho amount of
$160,000 should be requirod to stock tho
schools of tho stato it would not mean
that parents of Oregon would havo to
put up f 160,000 for now books at tho
opening of tho Fall torm of school. Tho
oxchango prlco would cut this sum down
to n moro fraction. By surrendering
their books not In uso tho actual cash
outlay for the now ones would probably
bo fllO.OOO to f IW.OOO-cortalnly loss than
$50,000. The sum would dopond on tho
bargain mado by tho state board. Thus
tho extra cost of an entire chango in the
series of school books, a clean swoop,
would cost the parents of tho Btato loss
than 60 cents for each school diiild, pro
haps not moro than 26 cents. It Is not
Impossible to imaglno that better books
might bo worth this small sum.
It being true that a completo change
would not linposo a heavy burden on tho
school patrons of tho stato, It follows
that thoro need bo 110 alarm folt on tho
