girls get their heads together
pretending to study. This will
leave no excuse for any such
excuses.
Third. 1t will give the book
publishers less than half the
amount of money now going to
them. | feel that the above
figures have demonstrated that.
Fourth. The books will al
ways be on hand and there will
not be several weeks of school
before the children are supplied
with books. This is animportan
matter. AS matters now go
many pupils are exceedingly
slow in getting their books. This
makes Unnecessary for the teacher
to let them sit with other children
to delay them and likely breed
mischief.
Fifth. The railroad and the
speculator must assist in buying
the books as they pay their taxes.
These books are to be bought
with public school funds and it
will not harm the rich man to
help. The poor man does his
share toward maintaining the
nation if he raises, clothes and
feeds the children. Let the rich
educate him or at least help to
bear the expense.
Sixth. One of the strongest
arguments in favor of free text
books is the great fact that the
book publishing companies do
not want the plan in use. Pub
fishers always oppose free books
as it greatly reduces their sales.
This idea is not new. It has
been used in many states. Min
nesota is now using it and could
not be induced to go back to the
old plan. Let South Dakota be
up-to date, and let Grant county
set good example for the rest
of the state.

FRANCE ANXIOUS TO
HONOR AMERICANS
Ready to Confer lnsignias
of the Legion of Honor,
Titles for Secretary Peirce, Colonel
Bingham, and Commander Rodgers
Held Up by State Department.

The State Department received yes
terday from the French embassy three
insignias OF the Legion of Honor. which
had been conferred by the President OF
France on Hon. Herbert II. d. Peirce
Third Assistant Secretary OF State: Col.
gineers. L. s. A.. and Commander Ray
mond p. Rodgers. T. s. ". in recogni
tion Of their courtesies to the French
special mission sent TO this country

Mr.. Peirce. Colonel Bingham. and
Commander Rodgers are the members
of President Roosevelt's committee for
the reception and entertainment of the
French visitors. with whom they spent
yesterday in Boston.
Made a Commander.
On Mr.. Peirce is conferred COM
membership and the others are made
officers of the Legion. Owing to the
Constitutional restriction. a resolution
Ol IOHpTeSS Is uettoSdig W ptiH th'
members OF the committee to accept
these decorations. In the meanwhile
the insignias and the accompanying
rateuts or commissions will be held In
the custody Of the State Department
The action OF the President of France
recalls the recent incident in connection
with the report that similar honors were
to be conferred on Admiral Dewey and
Lieutenant General Miles as recogni-
tion OF the friendship OF France and
the United States.
II was said that the President was in
formed that the decorations were TO be
conferred at the ceremonies of the I'M
yelling OF the Rochambeau statue on
May "a. but that he objected to having
Dewey and Miles honorod this way.
Changed His Mind.
This story was officially denied at the
White House. There appears to be
scme ground for the statement that the
French government did intend to give
decorations to Dewey and Miles. but il
did not bring the matter to the attcn-
tion OF President Roosevelt or the State
The reasons Of President Loubet for
changing his mind Is not known. but II
is supposed that he asccrtained that
President Roosevelt was not in favor OF
american officers receiving decorations
as tribute TO tho Government and
not 20 themselves personally.
