Major General Fl. M. Creel says
he is wholly responsible for the
appointment of T. Poole as adju-
thai general. By resigning the
Office himself he placed Governor
Sarles face to face with a, condi-
ton not a theory. The law COM
PEELED him to ELL the vacancy
without a moments delay, and
much against his wishes the gov
ernor had to act. Mr.. Poole being
the only one recommended for the
position, secured the plum. ! Ma
jor General Creel says haSacted
upon his own Judgment, without
consultation with anybody, and
he alone should receive the entire
credit or blame, as the case may
be, for the appointment of his
successor. Notwithstanding this
more or less lucid explanation of
the newly. made major general, a
mistake was undoubtedly made
for which the republican party in
the state cannot entirely escape
the responsibility.

this hitch in the work valuable
time is frittered away. Much
more might be said but this is or
should be sufficient on this point.
As to the injustice: The parent
who has five children attending
school brings considerable more
revenue from state tuition fund
into the Golfers Of his district,
even though he be a poor man,
than does the man with q half
section of land and no chill
dren bring in by direct taxation,
SO the childless man should have
no objection to free text books.
And again, there is considerable
more money often expended for
unnecessary and often costly and
useless apparatuses than would
pay for all the textbooks needed.
Right in this connection we
might add that scarcely a family
with children exists in any CON-
mnnity, that have not textbooks
enough about the house, out of
use cause out grown, to supply
an ordinary country school. This,
perhaps, is little strong, but that
there ar. thousands of dollars tied
up in unused textbooks in this
state is fact easily proven.
The Inter- Ocean believes the
legislature should 20 still further
and require school boards to buy
pens, pencils, tablets aud other
supplies and sell them to the chill
dren at cost, thus saving about
one half of the expenses of these
articles, besides having them al
ways on hand 80 that valuable
time is not lost to the child by
having to wait until the parent
goes to town to buy these things
and perhaps forget it and let the
child lose another weeks use of
these necessary and inexpensive
articles.
School boards have the power
to do so now, but it is left dis
creationary like so many of our
poor laws, and the result is THAT
bit few take advantage. of it.
What we need is a Unjust" law to
! take the place OF these ''may" laws
that are scarcely ever enforced or
used to our benefit.
We shall be glad to hear from
the readers of the Inter-Ocean on
the subject Of free text books. II
is only by publicity of opinions
that we can hope to rectify errors
in our laws.

advantages to be gained by the
use of free textbooks in our pub
lie schools are lo.,dest in their de-
mands for some more rigid legis-
lation in this matter.
As our law stands at present
school boards under certain con-
ditions put free text books into
their schools but there is no CON-
7puasionin the matter. IF it is to
the best interests of our schools
that we have free textbooks let
the law be SO amended that We
must have them It is sort of
half-opinion they may not be just
The proper thing tc have condi-
tion expressed. We have too
many such laws on, our statutes
and whenever there is given a
choice between doing and not do
ing E thing human nature is just
about contrary enough to not do it.
Is it good thing to have free text
books, and is it just law to tax
the man who has no children to
pay for books Of those who have
children? Once these two ques-
lions are fully settled there should
he no hesitancy in passing a COM
pulsory free textbook law.
By having free textbooks in the
school pupils may be always sup
piled with a book suitable to their
advancement. Once a child buys,
say a third reader. the teacher feels
compelled to permit that child to
go along with the class, however
much he may retard it 10y his slow
progress, because he knows that
he cannot.put that child back into
alower grade reader without pro-
dncing unpleasant friction. In
our rural schools when attendance
is often poor child staying out

farm work gets behind his class
To allow that child to continue in
the class with pupils who have
