free public schools should be done
away with, we should return to the
primitive system of our fathers, and
every parent should be required to
pay for whatever school privileges his
children are to enjoy, There is no
more reason for taxation to sustain
free schools than for taxation to fur
nish free textbooks which are abso-
lutely essential to the sue Hess of those
schools.
Another fact that is overlookedsis
that under this system the railroads
and other corporations would be taxed
to pay for textbooks as they are now
taxed for other school purposes; and
if Mr.. Kane has any children to buy
textbooks for he would find his tax
for this purpose no greater, if indeed
1t would be as great, as it is now. If
he hos no children Of has O1Ul he
ought to contribute to the general
education of the masses. His decla-
ration that the children Of the parent
who won't scratch gravel and pay
for books should be placed in the re-
form school and the parent sent to
Alaska where he could take his choice,
'work or freeze" Is one which does
himself injustice, and is unworthy q
moments consideration. 1t is heart
less and brutal, and is an insult to
people who are subject to conditions
that are not self-imposed, and who
are entitled to such educational privi-
leges for their children as will make
them good citizens of our state.

displayed was IN the the hands Of
Bill Higgins, and the reporter Of the
Capital knew it because he was
there. People have learned, how
ever, long ago to accept as truth the
precise opposite of what the Capital
says, and they will follow the rule in
this instance.
1t Is time for Bill Higgins to 60
home. The people of Kansas have had
enough of him. He is one of the
fellows who have been 80 much exer-
cised lest something revolutionary
might occur. There is nothing revo-
lutionary about drawing revolvers
upon officers of the state in the exer-
else of their duties, is there? Oh,
no, Bill Higgins is good republican.
He wouldn't Go saRRyything revolution
ary, of course.

THE ROAD IMPROVEMENT SCHEME.

Editors of reform papers when
they read the the glowing accounts
of the good roads that are going to
be constructed all over the United
States, should not forget that the
scheme contemplates the creation of a
national commissioner Of public high
ways with a whole retinue Of subor-
dlnates, and the issue of government
bonds to pay for the proposed i'm
provements; and they should not for
get to tell the people these facts.
We favor the improvement of the
public highways as much even as the
bicycle manufacturers who are boom
ing the scheme; but if the govern
ment is to undertake these improve
ments, which, by the way, would be
perfectly proper, the money should
not be provided by the issue Of
more bonds, but by coming and pay
ing out all the gold and silver that
can be produced aud supplying all
needed additional funds by the issue
of full legal tender paper currency.
The question is often asked when
discussing the subject Of the issue Of
more money, how would it be put in
circulation? There could be no bet
ter way, in our judgment than by
carrying on a great system of public
improvements, thereby giving en-
ploYment to the labor that is now
idle and distributing the money
among the masses. We are ready to
favor such system, but we want no
more bonds as a basis for the contin-
uance Of the national banking system,
nor do we need any national commits
sioner of public highways. The ma
chinery now in existence is amply
sufficient to carry on the work.
The advocate and Topeka tribune., 1893-01-11

The republican party is just as right now
as it was before election, and the fellows
who are changing their opinions because
the majority was against them are earning
the contempt of everybody. -Enporia Ga
zette.
So they are really changing their
minds since elections 1t is true the
republican party is inst as right now
as before election, and so is the devil,
but that is no reason why people
should stuck to him after they dis
cover his cloven hoof.

THE SHAWNEE COUNTY ALLIANCE
ON THE SCHOOL BOOK QUESTION.

The Shawnee County Alliance, at
its meeting on the 7th, considered the
school book question very briefly and
succeeded in passing a resolution one
part OF which is very good and the
other part is very bad. 1t IS very
evident that the members present
have not gwen the subject the atten-
tion that they should do before COM
mitting themselves to a definite
policy. Had they done so they would
have discovered that in the only in
stances where state publication has
been tried it has resulted in a most
miserable failure. They would have
discovered further that in other states
where the school departments have
made a thorough investigation of the
plan they have invariably declared
against it. Then, had they taken
time to pursue their Investigations
little further, they would have dis
covered the difficulties in the way of
having the state compile series of
textbooks for our public schools.
This is job that cannot be let like
the building of a house or barn to
any kind of a book carpenter with
any promise of success. The peculiar
kind of talent required to prepare a
series of textbooks that will compare
favorably with those now in use can
not be found in every country school
house, and if found at all it would re-
quire good amount of time to pre-
pare them ready for publication.
What would the Shawnee County
Alliance have the people do while
this work is being performed? Shall
we continue under our present sys-
tenn? Again; suppose after the work
is completed and the manuscript is
ready for the press, those to whom
should be assigned the duty of ex-
amining it and accepting or rejecting
The advocate and Topeka tribune., 1893-01-11

it, should find 1t unsatisfactory, what
should the state do with it? Should
it be published and forced upon the
schools without regard to its merits,
or should it be thrown away and a
new hand hired to prepare another
series?
The Shawnee County Alliance over
looks another fact. No state pub
fishing house, however well equipped,
can begin to publish books for any
single state for the price that they
can be published by a publishing
house which has the entire country
for a market The experience of Cali
fornia has demonstrated this to be
true. Again; if the state undertakes
the publication of books, it will have
to publish them in advance of the
demand and keep them in stock at
all times to fill orders. This involves
the investment of a large amount Of
capital which would be constantly
tied up in the stock necessary to be
carried. Under the contract system
the book companies would carry this
investment.
Now we do not wish it understood
that we advocate the contract sys-
tenn as the ultimate solution of the
school book problem. We think it the
best thing to 10 just noec. We
are in favor of the ultimate nationali-
zation of all industries, that of the
publication of school books as we'll as
others, but this is one of the things
which seem to require a broader
field than that within the limits OF
state boundaries, and more time tc
perfect it than it is advisable to give
it just now before undertaking g
change from our present system.
The Alliance, however, incorporated
in its resolution the proposition tc
furnish the books free, and this is the
good part of it to which we referred
in the beginning. Now let us suggest
to Alliances and to the people gener-
ally not to be too hasty in committing
themselves to q settled policy We
have opened the discussion Of the
subject with the intention of en-
couraging the free discussion of it
from every standpoint, and all sides
of 1t shall have a hearing, but let us
study the facts, not only with candor
but with deliberation.
The advocate and Topeka tribune., 1893-01-11

AS HAS been anticipated and pre-
dicted, the old party papers are now
making liberal quotations from the
National Economist, which they
take pleasure in creditlng to the

THE SCHOOL BOOK QUESTION.


surprising to us, coming from the
source it does. He says he is mot
quite ready to be taxed to furnish
books gratis for children that can
lose and destroy three books per day."
Neither is any other man ready to be
taxed for any such purpose as that,
and in trying to make a case friend
Kane has indulged in a little extrava-
gsnce of expression which is without
justification even to his own mind.
There is no reason for the assump-
tion that any child would destroy or
lose more books if they are furnished
free than If purchased by the parents.
In fact all the testimony of teachers
who have had experience under the
free textbooks system is in the oppo-
site direction. 1t Is said that the
teachers themselves look after the
books more carefully and that the
average life of book is longer than
under our present system.
Mr.. Kane's picture of the school
room with one side shelved and filled
with textbooks from which the
scholars are to help themselves at
pleasure, is purely imaginary. He very
well knows that nothing of the kind
is contemplated or thought Of by any
body. This is one of his extrsva-
gancies of expression to which we
have alluded.
But the most surprising feature of
Mr.. Kane's letter is that in which he
attributes all poverty to shiftlessness.
f has been too long in the reform
m. vement, and is altogether too fa-
mlliar with the causes that underlie
poverty in this country to be Justified
in making any such statement as this.
He say he believes In the Omaha
platform, but he forgets it all except
the single phrase las he puts it), he
that won't work, shan't eat;'' and he
forgets, moreover, that this phrase re-
fers to the idle class which fattens
upon usury and the dividends upon
watered stocks. If he has so much
regard for the Omaha platform we
would direct his attention to another
part of it, to wit:
Business is prostrated; our homes covered
with mortgages; labor Impoverished and
the land concentrating in the hands of the
capitalists. Urban workmen are denied the
right of organization for self protection;
imported pauperized labor beats down
their wages; hireling, standing army, un-
recognized by our laws, is established to
shoot them down, and they are rapidly de-
generating into European conditions; the
fruits of the toll of millions are bodily
stolen to build up collosal fortunes for the
few.
If Mr.. Kane is such an admirer of
the Omaha platform let him study
the above declarations and learn that
these are the causes of poverty in our
land, and not shiftlessness, IS he as
sumes; and whether he is just ready
to be taxed to furnish textbooks to
the children of the state or not, we
are in favor of taxing him IN proper

Many ladies have used our machines
twenty to thirty years in their family work,
and are still using the original machines
we furnished them a generation ago.
Many of our machines have run more
than twenty years without repairs, other
than needles. With proper care they
eve wear out, and seldom need repair.
We have built sewing machines for
more than forty years and have constantly
improved them. We build our machines
on honor, and they are recognized every
where as the most accurately fitted and
finely finished sewing machines in the
world. Our latest, the "No. g." is the
result of our long experience. In COM
petition with the leading machines of the
world, it received the Grand Prize at the
Paris Exposition of 1889, as the best,
other machines receiving only compli-
mentary medals ofgold, silver and bronze.
The Grand Prize was what all sought for,
and our machine was awarded it.
