STATE SCHOOL BOOKS.
Cyrus e. Smith Discusses the State
Text Book Idea.


Text Book Idea.
"What do think of the state pub.
fishing its own school books?" queried
Cyrus E. Smith, general agent for the
American Book company, who is q
guest at the Morton. "Well, ] don't
thing but mighty little OF it," con-
tinued Mr.. Smith, as he fished felt
hat out of his GRIP and requested "Sid"
Steele to lock his '.tile" up in the safe.
"CalifOInia is the only state that has
gone into it for keeps, and guess Cal
ifornia would be glad TO be out OF it..
1t Is an expensive piece of business,
and is even more unsatisfactory than
it Is expensive. If state wishes back
number text books. 1.-The way to get
them is to 60 into the school book bust
ness. If state prints its own text
books 1t won't revise them more than
once In ten or fifteen years. AS o re-
suit, the pupils will soon be making
frantic strides for the rear of the edu-
catioDal procession. Take text books
on physics, for example. The authori-
ties OF ten years ago are not recog-
nized now. The gigantic strides made
in electricity and other subjects of
natural philosophy have made new
books imperative. The school book
publishers have to keep up with the
times; but state printing it's own
books and having monopoly of the
trade could use the came old books,
and Furthermore would use them;"
and Mr.. Smith showed both hands into
the farther most corners of his pockets
and gave evidence of that tired feeling.
There's another thing, too. In the
race for patronage the publishers of
text books leave nothing undone to
make every school book a work of art
First class paper is used. The electro.
tipping is OF the very best workman.
ship, and good artists are employed to
prepare the illustrations. The result
is that book is produced, attractive
enough to rivet q child's attention.
But let the state print the books and
the first thing you know an economi-
cal legislature will begin to buy cheap
paper. and finally the school books
will be mIraculously hideous. l believe
the present school-book system is by
far the best.

Street Car Blockade.

During the fire on Canal street last
night the electric current on Canal,
Monroe, Pearl and Lyon streets was
shut Oft, and rs result there was q
great display of the rolling stock of the
Street Railway company. As far down
Canal street as one could see was a
string of headlights, on the other
tracks were cars headed in the opposite
direction. In Monroe street both
tracks were filled. From the steps nj
the Tower forty-eight motors were to
be seen at one time. Part of the pas
sengers waited and others walked. II
was nearly an hour before the pro
ceseion finally started.

KNUTE NELSON'S STRENGTH.

AS in his previous congressional
campaigns, so in 1892, Knute Nelson
is strong with the rank and file.
Among the farmers Of Northern and
Western Minnesota, as among the
industrial rank and file. Of Mime
apolis, Nelson's 1nroads into the
opposition vote were notable, says
the Minneapolis Tribune. In Is
Northern and Western agricultural
counties which in 1890 gave..Merriam
a vote Of $3.50, Nelson received a
vote of 1888. Hennepin, which
cast plurality Of over 5000 against
Merriam in 1890, gives Nelson a
favorable plurality of nearly $500.
In Merriam's county, Ramsey,
Nelson receives 8,406 to Merriam's
1856; but in Douglas, Nelson's home,
the "Little Norwegian" increases
Merriam's vote of 1856 to 1910, and,
decreases Ovens third party vote of
1913 to 581 for Donnelly. The
latter's vote was approximately cut in
two by Nelson in nearly every third
party stronghold. The combined
attacks of Donnelly, Fish and the
Democratic machine, aided by the
St. Paul Globe and the Great West,
served simply to give Nelson unusual
and surprising gains in county after
county. The following gains over
the Republican pluralities of 1890
are samples: Douglas, $50; Fillmore,
467; Goodhue, 379; Grant, $50;
Houston, I'll; Jackson, 27O; Randi
yohi, 419; Lac 9ui Parle, 533; Lyon,
284; Mcleod, 452; Norman, 457;
Polk, 6O7; Pope, ISL; Washington,
1858; Winona, 80; Wright, 300;
Yellow Medicine, 267; Hennepin,
6,547. r
The organs of vituperation and
calamity have discovered since
election that the bond between Knute
Nelson and the penple Of Minnesota is
one which a> campai of -misrepre-
cannot sunder. - Fl
