SCHOOL TEXT BOOKS.
From the Saline County Democrat ]

From the Saline County Democrat
The outrageous monopoly in school
text books has t,acted universal at
tention in this state, and upon all sides
is heard the complaint ot those who
suffer from the extortionate charges
of he publishing houses.
The demand ior the destruction of
this monopoly has grown so strong
and so universal that il must attract
the attention of the legislature this
winter and we believe thai the /, 4i-ia-
ture will apply to the evil the remedy
demanded.
But the school book firms are sbrewd
and will do all in their power 10 pre-
vent action upon the subject, and will
seize upon every argument, no matter
how specious, to prevent legislation.
A part of the plan will be to make
contracts with as many counties as
possible, and then 90 before the lcgis-
lature with these contracts and saw:
"Here, we have made contracts with
such and such counties tor term OF
five years, and you must pass no law
impairirg the ni,liya'ion "t contracts
or interfering with our monopoly.
The grcater the nu,iUr. counties
which walk into the trap the stronger
the argument against interfering witbs
the monopoly. {
Then, if the peopIeexpect relief from
the legislature, they must place no
stumbling blocks in the way Of lcgisla-
tive action.
When the county boards meet in JAM
uary strong effort will be made to se-
cure fve-year contracts. This must be
defeat d.
School books now sell from 25 to IS
per cent. higher than other b. oHs OF tie
same kind OF workmanship aid the
, same cost of manufacture.
This state Uf affairs can only exist
where competition is destroy ed by iron
clad contract.
1t is wrong: it is robbery, and 1t
should not be permitted. 1t is u tax
upon the intelligence OF the state, levied
and kept up for the benefit of the pub
fishing houses.
Then don't make the desired con-
tract, and the monopoly can be defeat
ed.
| Let the county boards, when they
meet in January, say 10 The publishing
houses: 1--WE will buy your books SO
long rs as the quality and the price suit
us, but We will not bind ourselves to
continue 10 buy from you for any
stated period. You must treat US ,alr-
/ " or lose our trade"
If 4 farmer were TO agree to buy his
supplies of clothing or "a oceries from a
certain firm for five years, that aione
would be enough to annul TIE contract
OH the ground of mental inrnpacIty
Then why should whole school dis
trict or county be placed at the mercy
of a publishing firm?
There IS no sense, justice or reason in
permitting such state OF affairs TO ex-
ist.
If there is any doubt as to extoriion
in prices, just remember the hundreds
and thousands Of "agents" who w're
employed five years ago 10 talk "Iext
book" to the school officers. VIA, must
have been the profit to the publ, hers
when they could aff'id to .'r - mon-
ey solavish y to secure contracts.
A number of counties WA i,.use to
make contracts with the book firms.
Let Saline be one of the number.
When the refusal is made The l'gisla.
ture will see to the uniformity OF text
hooks, and good bucks, too, AT u mere
ly nominal cost.

TO SUCCEED LOGAN.

IBy telegraph to the n. Y. Herald. /

ST. LOUIS, Dec. %, 1SS4.-Since it
has been settled that the Illinois legls-
lature is tie on joint ballot the gener.
al public have come to take it tor
granted that John A. Logan will be
returned to the United States senate.
It has been an open secret hereabouts
for some time that Logan himself is by
10 means confident. In fact, Logan
himself said, few days ago, that he
was "chief1y concerned in discovering
what he was to do for a living after
the expiration of his present term"
BOUND TO ELECT A DEMOCRAT.
Your correspondent to-day met Mr..
T. E. Merritt, of Salem, ILL.,, member
Of the legislature and one OF the most
promin, n democrats Of the state. He
.ald:-"Ou the subject OF the senator-
ship there is very general misappre-
hension as to how the Illinois legisla-
ture stands on joint ballot. 1t is a
dead tie, and we are bound to elect q
democrat to the senate, and I'll tell you
why. The republicans have majority
of one in the senate. We have q
majority of one in the house, so that
we come together exactly even. The
very best that Logan can do is to poll
that tie vote; he will never get beyond
it. He has nothing to give for the one
more vote that would elect him. You
see, we have the postoffices, United
States marshalships and the good
things generally to distribute this time
and Logan has not. So that it is reas-
onably certain that the break will be
from them to us, not from us to them
Doesn't that seem reasonable!'
FARwELL's CHANCE.
"How about Charley Farwell"
"Well, | believe that if Charlie Far.
we'll came within one vote OF election
that Elijah Haynes would vote for him
They are warm personal friends, and
though HAYNES is a democrat, | rather
think he would support Farwell under
these circumstances. But then Farwel
will never get there. Logan will no
let him. Logan is not strong enough
to be elected himself, but he is strong
enough to prevent any other republican
from getting there.
"Who will he the choice Of the dem
ocratic caucus?'
"Who can say? Morrison, Harrison
and Black all have their ardent sup
poi ters. Judge Allen is in the race il
good shape, and l don't know who viii
be our choice. do know, however
that having made the choice we cal
elect the man."

The Rev. Wattv Dunlop, the humor-

practical jokes played upon him, but
the perpetrators rarely got the better

as he passed through churchyard, ,and
one of them came to him, dressed as Il

Watts cool accost speedily upset the
