Firm Name Changed

The firm name of Richard =. ThOmp-
son Il Bro. has been changed to ThOmp-
son Brothers. Under the old style,
Messrs. Richard :. and Charles w.
Thompson merely represented Messrs.
Geo. \. Dickel 4 Co., of Nashville,
Tenn. In the sale of the popular brand
of Tennessee sour mash whisky, known
as "Old Cascade" Under the new firm
name, Thompson Brothers, by ten
year contract, recently signed, are made
solo distributors of "Old Cascade" In
the cities of Chicago, Buffalo ana New
York.
Their office for the present Is room
40, AZ River street. After Feb. Is
they will be found by their friends In
their elegant suite, Nos. 13O2-13O4 Trib-
une Building. Chas. w. Thompson will
devote his entire time to the executive
offices I'm Chicago, After March ]
Richard s. Thompson will be located In
New York City, and will be kept busy
looking after the sales of "Old Cas-
cade," besides managing Thompson
Brothers stable, to be raced the season
of 1908, Sidney Lucas, Chlcago's old
favOrite, will be the star of the stable,
and as the old horse has had long
rest. and his legs are sound again. 1t
| Is safe to say that the well'known col
ors-red, white and blue--will be seen
many times first under the wire. AS II
racing firm Thompson Brothers always
gave the Chicago racing public run
for their money; and In serving "Old
Cascade they claim there isnOne better
made, and If the many admirers of Sid
ney Lucas will call for this popular
brand of Tennessee whisky they Will
do Thompson Brothers good turn, ana
will be more than pleased with their
purchase.

To the Editor of the Eagle:


Dear Sir-lf have read Alright the
synopsis of the proposed educational
bill recommending radical changes IN
regard to the official conduct and man.
agcment Of our public school system,
one of the propositions therein con-
taincd Is that the general superintcn-
dent shall have full and exclusive juris-
dlctiOn in the selection of all school
hooks.
This seems to me to bc nn cxtraor,li.
nary degree of power to vest IN any
public servant. l do not believe that
any public official. The people should
have some rights In the matter. and
when I say the people In this regard l
mean more particularly the parents of
children attending the public schools.
Even more striking is this cXtraordi-
nary proposed increase of power when
Il Is taken In connection with the nc-
campaigning proposition that the term
of the general superintendent shall bc
for five years and that he shall bc un
'lrrcmovablc" during suci, term Of of.
flee.
Now. while I have nothing to say
against our present general supcrin-
tcndent, who l believe II u good man
and an able official, II Is Just possible
that ut some future time II mistake
might be made by the Board Of Educn-
tiOn, and some man selected for the
place who might not be quite so broad.
minded. liberal. capable or consclcn.
tIous as the excellent gentleman who
now occupies the Office.
If such an unfortunate circumstance
should arise. just imagine what this
arbitrary power In regard to school
books would mean. Books might he
placed In the hands of the school chill
drcn which might contain statements
In total opposition to those Of the par
cnts Of such children.
For instance, once found that u
history was being studied by II child Of
mine In which Cromwell was repre-
sented ns n saint, In fact M the acme
OF human perfection, ~ u soldier. cit.
lien, patriot and n benefnctor of man
kind In general. Now. as I have been
taught to hold very different views of
this historical character. ! naturally
objected to my child being imbucd with
such Views as those mentioned.
Would 1t not be n terrible thing IL
the parents of pupils attending the
public schools found that their chill
dren We're being taught whmt they con.
sidcred pervcrsiOn Of history and We're
pOwerless to remedy the matter except
In one way. namely. the withdrawal of
their children from the schools: be-
cause the official with the arbitrar!
Jurisdiction In the matter would not be
likely to be influenced by individual
rcmOnstllnces no motter how nuMer,
Gus.
Then. again, is not the sole right OF
selection, which logically means pnr'
chase of the books for nearly 100000
children every year, rather n mrg,
business proposition to place In the
hands of one official? With II man less
scrupulOusly upright and with less alb
solute integrity than our present super
intendent, 1t might lead 10 grave tr0u
BILE. This Is the only criticism ] have
to offer to the proposed educatl0
bill ut present, ana l hope it will b,
received In the spirit IN which It /,
offered. Yours sincerely,
PARENT.

HIS THEMES DEEP
BUT OF INTEREST
Few. Edward p. Graham to Be One of
the Chautaugua Speakers.

Rev. Edward P. Graham, Of Akron,
Ohio, will deliver three lectures at the
Western Catholic ChautauQua to be
held in st. Paul, July to 20, on the
subjects of The Soul" Government
and Democracy" The subjects sug-
gest pOnderOus and undressing dis
cussions, but Father Graham's sue
cess as lecturer and platform speak
er has been achieved, because of his
ability to popularize the discussion Of
abstract subjects of Importance.
In his grafton on the Growth of De-
mOcracy," he has gained a national
reputation. In his treatment of this
theme he first briefly sketches the true
theory Of government, clearly illustrat-
ing the general principles; next. he
passes in review the various forms of
government and this resume reaches
the period of the founding Of the gov
eminent out Of the United States,
where he shows that the tree of liberty
has reached its most perfect develop
ment and produced it's most luxuriant
fruit. Equaling this able address in
force and interest are the special lee
lures on Government and "The
Soul" These contain much profound
thought, but are characterized by that
brilliancy and vivacity of diction and
cOplOuSneSS of illustration which has
enabled Father Graham to attain sue
cess in handling deep subjects.
Father Graham is now pastor Of the
Catholic church of Akron, Ohio, where
he has been installed for the greater
portion of his clerical life He is in
greater demand as lecturer and pub
lie speaker in Ohio probably than any
other public man in that state His
lectures in st. Paul will be at the
evening session Of July 81 and the
morning sessions of July % and 29.
