senator Tlllmau. who Is making speech
IS In the West. IS being highly compli-
mented by the Democratic papers Of the
West for furnishing a satisfactory answer
20 the full dinner pail argument. on which
the Republicans are placing such reii-
anco for winning the labor vote.
In n speech delivered in Milwaukee scna-
tor Tillman said: "A fun dinner pail is a
blessing. a mark OF prosperity which our
negro slaves used TO enjoy" According
20 Senator Hanna workmen ought to be
satisfied as long as they have enough for
Themselves and families to cat Accord
ing TO Senator Tlllman n they are salts
lied with that they are practically on a
par with slaves.
II II not TO be- wondered al that the full
dinner pan suggested itself to the Repub-
ncan managers as good campaign ar
.yument The great trusts and corpora
tons are largely under the control OF Re
publicans. who care nothing for the men
they employ beyond getting all the work
out OF them they can. II has been stated
many times. and never satisfactorily con-
tradicted. that the mine owners and op-
orators Of the coal section OF Pennsyi-
vania brought the hungry horde Of ltal-
iaus aud HunRarians TO this country I'm
der contract. because they could get their
labor cheaper than the labor OF native
Americans
Their idea was doubtless that II they kept
the pals OF these contract laborers fun
the latter would be satisfied. They were
satisfied for a while, but they eventually
learned from their surroundings and from
contact with native American workmen
that fun dinner pail is not entirely
satisfying-that q man who is satisfied
to get nothing more out OF life than
enough to eat IS not OF "a very high
type.
There are Indications that the ReDubii-
can leaders are finding out that the full
dinner pail argument Is not proving 10 be
as effective as they hoped u would. Work
men are resenting tho suggestion which
the argument contains. namely. that they
are simply slaves who viii be content a.
long as their stomachs are kept fun.

THE rrxr NOOK nrnDEN.

There Is a wall IN many cities along
about this time every year. caused BY 'he
Textbook burden. School boards do not
.eern 90 realize that che majority OF those
who have children in the public schools
are wage-earners. or people who get com
parativeIy small salaries. They are a.
a rule composed Of well-to-do men. who
Judge OF the situation BY their own fnan-
cial condition.
BY newspapers. in some Of the cities
the thought i thrown out that there are
entirely too many text books used In the
nlblic schools-that the pupils could be
taught to better advantage with fewer
books. This may be the case in many
cities. but "a complaint that is heard IN
about oh OF the cities, aud one that rests
upon pretty solid foundation. Il that
textbooks are changed oftener than T.
necessary.
Il will. of course. be admitted shat the
hes, books ought to be used. and teachers
In colleges ana public schools are pro-
eiucing books all the time which they in
slst are better tsan those IN use. In
some particulars they may be better, but,
as a matter of fact. are they better In
all particulars Are they 50 much better
that their adoption becomes imperatively
necessary?
School book publishers are very enter
prising people They print every book
offered them out OF which they think they
can make profit And they employ
bright and smooth-tongued men to sell
them. II IS often the case that school
boards are Influenced TO change Textbooks
by school book agents rather than By the
merits Of the books.
II can be- readily seen what burden
20 poor man che providing OF school
books Tor four or i've children IL. and as a
general thing the poor man has more
children In the public schools than the
rich man Many a family IN the cities
would md O. easter getting along Il inc
school hook burden were less. and o. if
probable that reduction could be- made
IN cities. where the greatest reasons Tor
complaint exist If the proper EFFORT were
made. and that too. withou, lessening
the advantages of the school children.
