IN outrageous attack upon certain re-,

This incident recalls fOrcibly to my
mind u letter which recently appeared
In your correspondence columns con-
ccrnlnS the proposition to place entire
ly in absolute control of one official
of the board the selection Of all the
books that shall he read in our public
schools.
When the incident to which ] refer
arose, Superintendent Cooley agreed
with Mr., Heating that "the book Is not
to run under the State law It was the
only book that could be purchase
After the year expired, Mr.. Cooley said
it should be stricken FROM the list" So
far so good. But suppose we had sOme
law enacted which took all power of
interfering In the selection of books
out of the hands OF the trustees, ana
suppose we should happen to have u

The Eagle has maintained the posi-
tion that judicial primaries cOul,
be properly held only In June
when the election must. under the law
be held. 1t was the first to draw at
tentlOn to tho matter. as 1t was the
first to claim that to hold the primarie,
with those of the municipal election
would be an open violation Of the law
and absolutely unconstitutional.
Since The Eagle took this stand Il
has been reinforced In its opinion 10y
that of many leading citizens, and oI
cusscd among the members Of tho
bench themselves, when the unanmou,
verdict of the jurists was that In,
question involved was a very scriou,
one Indeed. Judge Hanccy, In discuss
ing the matter voiced the opinions OF
his colleagues Of the Circuit bench. IL,
said:
I'm 1870 the law was passed, which
provided that Circuit Court Judges
should b" elected on the first
Monday of June, 1873, ana every
six years thereafter on the same Mon
day of the same month, The intent OF
this act was to keep the judiciary clcc
ton free from the feeling ana methods
oi ordinary political contests.
Now, that law means that not only
the election itself but all that goes be
fore the election, the primary cOnven
tion as well, shall be kept free from
the same influence. At that time the
primaries were not under the present
law. Therefore no provision was made
with regard TO judicial primary. But
II 1t can he shown that the primary
law Is in conflict with the constitution
IN that respect or Is susceptible of q
construction which will bring about
practices IN conflict with the constitu,
tion that law in part, or perhaps In its
entirety, can be found unconstitutional
The clause which, it Is claimed, shows
that the Legislature intended the pri-
mary to cover the judicial election says

Chicago, Feb. IL.

Chicago, Feb. 1S.
Editor Chicago Eagle:
Dear Sir--1 notice that nearly $1,000
900 more than was asked by the Board
of Education last year for school taxes
Is provided for In the tax levy of 1908.
and whic, has been approved by the
board.
While there IL no burden that the
taxpayers of Chicago so chcerfully as
sumo ns the school tax. Il IL at the
same time not unreasonable that our
citizens should demand that the cX.
pcnditurc of the enormous funds
placed ut the disposal of those lntrust.
cd with the management of our school
system should be carried out In the
way best calculated to attain the main
end and object for which our school
system has been established and IL
maintained. namely the proper cduca.
ton of the rising generation.
II may bc surprise TO many of your
readers nnd indeed, To the general pub
lie, to know that the grand total of
this years estimate Is 11,5O5. 1880.
Now, while freely admit that our
school system IL. on the whole. an OK.
ccllcnt one. yet II suffers from many
shortcomings ana defects which should
not exist where such an enormous sum
IL at the disposal Of the trustees. We
have not enough kindergnrtcns, for In.
stance, nor enough night schools: in
deed, In many districts we have not
enough school room or accommodation
for the pupils who attend schools reg
ularly every day. Rooms have to DO
rented In adjacent buildings. and other
makcshifts provided. while In some
distrir's children have to go without
any provisions for education ut all
makoshift or otherwise. They arc'sim-
ply crowded ont for want of room.
Last summer we saw the $4,000
school children of Chicago threatened
with IN epidemic because the Board Of
Education was too poor to provide III
tcrs for the publication of the polluted
water supply. On this account thou
sands of children had to suffer torture
or stay away from school.
SSuItis WIN ticNcu uuu u Iuit IuI-
lion dollars mt Its disposal our school
system should not any longer suffer
from these or any other kind of de-
fe0ts.
Naturally the question arises. how,
even with the funds formerly ut Its dis.
pOsal, have such things been possible.
The sum of $0,OOO,OOO, which was eX-
pended last year, should have been
sufficient to make such conditions I'M
possible. IL our school system loaded
down ut the top with too many high
salaries, ana numbered with too much
real estate enterprise?
More school room and less real estate
options would, l think, be n desirable
change.
These remarks are offered In a spirit
of suggestion rather than of criticism.
