about the Text-Book-Law
with reference to the text book
law, | deem it not improper to state
that reluctantly gave my consent
to measure so apparently revolution
AIRY in character. After due consider
alton, however, my convictions were
that the great extortions which our
people have so long endured regarding
their school supplies, were sufficient
reasons for justifving Il radical effort
for their correction, and I according
ly approved the bill, although doubt
ing the wisdom Of some of its provis-
ions. From the first the tar has en-
countered erery species Of obstruction.
At the outset its practical operation
was crippled by the non-apprOval of
an act from which funds were expect
ed to make it effective, and it has
been confronted with the persistent
sneers of the prejudiced, the reluct-
ant nd lukewarm acquiesence of
those honestly doubling it's wisdom,
and the bitter opposition of many
whose pecuniary interests are affected
by it. Under these circumstances
the law has made more progress. and
has grown more in public favor than
could have been expected. \ formal
contract has been entered into by the
State rs required by the law. under
which rights have vested, every con.
dition required has been thus far
complied with by the contractor, and
there is no reason to doubt that the
law can be practically enforced to the
general benefit of school book pur-
chasers. 1t was not, of course. to be
expected that law embracing so
many changes of serious import,
should prove free from minor defects.
but it may he fairly said that these
are no greater than are usual in simi.
lar enactments, while the two great
attainments of cheapness and unifor.
nifty of school books will unquestion.
ably be realized by a just and thorough
execution of its provisions. 1t is my
earnest desire to see the law 81
amended and supplemented as will
lead to that desired consummation. =

The meeting of prominent Green
back men ut the rooms of the senate
committee on rostoiiicesa and post-roads
last Saturday evening. has attracted
a great deal of attention and interest.
Its purpose was to take steps for an
organization of senator's and members
favorable to currency reform for the
double object of arranging for the dis.
tribution of speeches and pamphlets
on measures of relief. which may come
up during congress: and. further to
have an organization to promote
favorable action on such measures.
At tue meeting it was resolved to
have a permanent committee. cumpJs-
ed Of one senator or representative
,, from each state and territory having
Greenback representative in con
gress. That committee was selected
in part on Saturnay night. rs follows:

The 1886, ,Ol2,60 of new bonds have
been issued largely for the purpose OF
taking up and cancelling the green
backs. During the year 1877 the amount
of preenbacks redeemed was So 49,

the bonds will cost us about 81, ,2OO,OOO

process is to continue until S5lz'ooo''

Here are the views held by Secreta-
nv Sherman in 1855, upon the queS'
tion of paying the bonds, Read them:
Il. S. SENATE CHAMBER

WASHINGTON, March, 90, 1865.
DEAR SIR;-I WAS glad to received
YOUR letter My personal interests
are the same as yours. but, like you
7 do not intend to be Influenced by
them. NY construction of the law IS
the result Of careful examination.
and ! feel quite sure an impartial
court would confirm 1T II the case
should be taken before u court.
4 I send you my views as fully stated IN
"a speech. Your idea that we propose
+ to repudiate or violate promise
when we offer to redeem the princi-
pal in legal-tender is erroneous. l
think the bondholder violates his
$promise when he refuses to take the
Nsame sort of money he paid for the
bond. If so. the case is to be tested
Inv the law. If it is to be tested by
Jay Cookies advertisements, l am
wrong. | hate reputation, or any
thing like it. but we ought not to be
deferred from what is right for fear
of undeserved epithets. If, under the
law as it stands. the bondholder can
Remand only the kind of money he
paid, then he is 4 repudiator and ex.
tortioner to demand money more val
liable than he gave. Yours.
JOHN SHERMAN.
The probabilities are that when
Wall Street saw that letter it "came
down." Soon after Sherman branch
ed out. as one of the leading realizes
tate owners of Washington. and
began to preach hard-money and
contraction and the payment of The
bonds in the most valuable kind o
money.
