 ity, and the majority of this com mlttee were of this persuasion. Yet having thls bill and several State uniformity bills before them, and recognizing the iniquitY which thls county1blll would perpetrate upon the children and people of thelr State, they carried by vote of nine to one a resolution endorsing a State uniformity law "under the present circumstances" That is, of what seemed to them two great evils, they endorsed the less.
 This was hard blow to the lob byists and there were threats of political annihilation if certain par ties did not keep their mouths shut" on the question of uniformity.
 This is an alarming condition of affairs, but it is only a trifing affair compared with rumors now going the rounds here in Little ROCK, if they be trde-not only will political annihilation follow the expression of all honest opinlon, but even now bills reducing salaries of anY who should have the tcmerity to oppose the lobby, are said to be drawn and ready for introduction. And not only so, but should anybody desire to publish letter such as this in our papers it would be submitted first 10 the censorship of support CT of county uniformity and, of course, would not pass the censor ship. So impudent has this bully ing become that the "censor' boasts of it openly.
 Is it not quite clear from these things that the powers behind this bill desire to lower the price of books and prevent monopoly? Oh, of coursei
 It would be interesting, indeed, to kuow where this bill originated, It bears Q remarkable resemblance to bill passed in the Oklahoma Iegisla- ture two years ago. Ever the phraseology is the same, especially that part which relates to the adop ton of the books in most common use.
 But this measure has developed such full blown scandal in Okla homa on account of the methods and tactics used that bill is now pend- ing in the legislature for the abroga- tion of the contract made under the so called law. Let us hope the peo- pie of Arkansas will have no such cause for scandal.
 Another point overlooked by your correspondent and an important one in the consideration of this bill-the books noy used in most of our rural schools are behind the times anc not up to modern methods aud progress in education. The cities-Little Rock, Ft. Smith, Pine But, Hot Spring have been gradually getting rid of them. But under this won dertul uniformity bill these old books would be fostered upon us for at least five years more. What harm have the children of Arkansas done that their birthright should be sold to save few cents per capita, or rather to fill the coffers of a rich corporation?
 If there is to be no reduction in prices aud this bill does not provide fdr any nor do it's supporters ser iously claim that there will be any, if there is to be no real uniformity, why sacrifice our liberty to make progress according to the best light we have, without any compensa}ing benefit Pedagogue.
