VIII School Books BE Cheaper

The Cleveland World, which is edited
by man who has had practical exper-
fence in the handling of school books
and knows what their cost is. insists
that the idea that an era of cheap school
books has begun is delusion and a
snare. He says that "a little arithme-
tic which doesn't cost more than 5 cents
and this is Il fair illustration of how the
whole business is rum" He adds:
Under this new law the boards of
education must pay the freight on the
books to the pupils. There are over
three hundred places in the city where
sch ool books are now retailed The
board of education must establish places
and hire people to sell the books, for
the leading dealers very Justly refuse
to do anything with them under the
new scheme. Does any one who has any
ability to think suppose that by the
time the board has paid the freight on
the books, set aside large sum to
invest in books, hired men to cart them
about the city and performed the busi-
ness OF several hundred little retail
stores, there will be any saving in til
| No one but dreamer would imagine
anything OF the kind.-Col. News.

Toledo's littleness exemplified once
more. She advertised a great time
for the Odd Fellows; even got Gen.
Whitaker to come here and solicit
Canton Alpine to go down with it's IS
swords. A large majority of the Can
ton members had been at Toledo BAN
quets, balls, receptions, competitive
drills and whatnots before, and finally
declined to be fooled any more; but a
few OF the boys went. Toledo had bor-
rowed OF the state the tents the soldiers
had here; and about the first thing our
boys met up with was notification that
they had been assigned IA tents and
must pay two dollars each for them.
There were only 13 of the boys, and as
the tents are meant To accommodate
four men each the boys kicked. To
ledo insisted that they must pay for II
tents-but they didn't, though they
did pay for four. Paid for the use of
tents Toledo had borrowed and got for
nothing!-Sentinel.

Bound Not To BE Used.

The following remarkably good story
is from the Oskaloosa Herald. 1t illus.
trates the mulish obstlnacy of some
men and also demonstrates very i'm
portant truth in current politics:
One of cur farmer friends, whose only
fault is that he is Democrat-and is
not to be blamed for that. for his father
before him was dyed in the wool, and
he never reads the newspapers-came
to town one day this week to buy some
sugar. His wife was putting up fruit
and she needed about Is pounds of
sweetness. The dialogue in the gro
Gerry ran about as follows:
Farmer-"What are you doing,
young man"'
Clerk-"Waiting on you. Weighing
out your sugar"
Farmer-''How much are you giving
meY'
Clerk-"A dollars worth"
Farmer-''Yes, / know; but how
many pounds?"
k-"Twenty-fOur."
Farmer-''Twenty-four Why it
used to be only fourteenT
Clcrl-"Yes, but Mckinley did it,
Farmer-''Well,r run her back and
give me only IA pounds. If | take
home "A pounds of sugar for dollar
the old woman would make me vote tn .
Republican ticket, and I'll be hanged
If | III do that"

Since the delegate convention of last
Tuesday, Republicans Of the county are
feeling much better satisfied over the
situation. The resolution introduced
submitting the question of delegate or
mass convention to vote of the Re-
publicans at the Spring election was
step In the right objectionable peo-
pie should each and everyone have a
right to say whether they should vote
themselves or have delegates vote for
them. The leaders of the mass cen
vention> pll of whom we believe to be
honest in their convictions, and good
men, seem to be willing to accept the
situation and will pull off their coats
and work for the ticket as it now
stands. The ticket is Of course sub
stantiaily the same as nominated by
the mass convention with the excep-
tion of James for Representative
instead OF Norris, and Mr.. Norris is
too good Republican to allow himself
to stand in the way of the election of
the entire Republican ticket and we
are informed does not intend to remain
a candidate. The ticket is one of the
best ever nominated. Every candidate
isa hustler and will not be caught naI :
ping during the campaign, but will
keep the ball rolling and the entire
ticket will be elected in November.

Republicans of Wood county will be
pleased to learn that there is an effort
being made to have Hon. VIM. Mckinley.
Jr., return to Bowling Green, and nd
dress the people on the political issues
of the day. He won many friends on
the occasion of his brief call at that
place during the I'd Reg't encampment,
but his remarks were not of political
nature and the people of Wood county
feel that they must hear the great
champion of protection in a political
address. The date will probably be in
the early part Of October.

The division OF Perrysburg township
into two voting precincts as made by
the Board of Elections at their meeting
last Saturday, seems to meet with
general approval. The dividing line
commences at the county line and
running in on the stone pike road to
south boundary, thence to the McCutch-
erville road, thence through the
village to the foot OF Louisiana Ave
The two precincts are designated as
North and South, and will of course
have two separate polling places.

The INTERSTATE CASE

ST PAUL, Mimi, July 9-The case OF
the United States against President Egan
and others, of the Kansas City railroad
charged with violating the interstate com
merce law, was dismissed by Judge
Ihayer this morning, that official instruct
ing the .l"rl TO draw up verdict of Not
guilty Judge Tbayer, after reciting Il e
ltcis IN the case, says: 'As the published
schedule of rates did not specify what was
meant by first class limited tickets, and rs
the commission did not see fit when the
schedule was filed TO require the company
TO explain what was meant. or what privi-
leSes the holder would be entitled to. no
case has been made out, in my opinion,
emitting the government to go to the Jury.
1he evidence, IN my judgment, would not
support conviction on either count of tn
indictment. The railway company in
question advertised to sell limited first
class tickets from St. Paul to Chicago for
81 The defendants have sold tickets be
tween those points for 81, which were, in
TACT, limited as to privileges by recurring
"A continuous journey If the railroad COM
pany elected to enforce that requirement.
IL may have been in this sense that the
term limited" was used in the published
schedules filed with the commission. and
there Is not sufficient evidence 1t was NOT
so used. The difficulty encountered in
TINS case could probably be remedied bv
requiring railroad companies when they
lle rate schedules to specify clearly what
ls meant by the term limited ticket
The jury viii be instructed to acuuit the
defendants on all the counts OF the indict-
mcnts.'
