A significant fact it is that more than
95 per cent of the school officers and
teachers are opposed to the adoption of
the uniform text book proposition, in
the shape of state commission to con-
troll and manipulate such matters. They
took action against it at their meeting
in this city Wednesday. Will politicians
persist in trying to build up political
machine in school book manipulation
against even the better Judgment and
good will of the best educators? We
shall see! II they do, they shall answer
for it, most assuredly. when they ask
those people to vote them into office
again in the future.

general question of river transportation.

from railroad men and business organiza-
tlons at different points offering assistance
in the task the commission has in hand.

ment the commission is bearing in mind

ton of natural resources with which the

from various coordinate branches Of the
government departments showing the close
connection between the Improvement Of
waterways and steps to prevent the waste
and destruction Of the natural resources
