ate bill No. 20 and this Thatcher bill.
We told the messenger that when
ever the supreme court wished to
call upon the committee it knew
where our committee room was and
we would be glad to give them the
same hearing as we would any other
citizen" II was at this point that
house members broke into applause.
Continuing, Smith said the action
of the supreme court was unprece-
dented. He followed with: "The
court in disDarring Thatcher sat upon
its own case and rendered verdict.
Two members Of the court, Justices
Price end Shauck, we're among the
members criticised by Thatcher. Has

zen can not exercise the constitu
tional right of free speech?" asked
Smith, warming up to his subject.
He pointed out that courts should not

FAITHFUL.
Work On Part Of Directors

Faithfuluess and hard work, char
asterize the directors and officers of
the Y. NJ c. A.
Mr.. A. II. Sipe writes Knox coun-
ty and Mt. Vernon should be proud
and appreciative of the work being
done by the local Young Mems Chris
tian Association. The directors and
officers have worked faithfully to es-
tablish the work apd have succeeded
beyond anticipation for which reason
they should be heartily supported by
ALL"
The task at the hands of the board
Of directors, four years ago was to
take an association that was wholly
in the minds of the people Of the COM
munity and make something out of it.
The vision before the public today is
splendid plant practically paid for
and work developed to standard
of many of the oldest associations of
the state.
Rapid and substantial growth has
characterized the associations devel-
opment all over the country and even
world round.
Many of the strongest associations
are those that are springing up in
cities where there have been no ac-
tivities, which indicates that the gen.
ious of the movement is quickly
caught and the leading citizens are
anxious to get the work under way
in their midst when once they con-
ceive the plans of operation.
The latest news of interest from
the state is that of Elyrias great
campaign that just closed last week.
Elyria is manufacturing city of
$4,000. Some of the leading young
men, through their board of trade,
conceived the idea that they must
have Youny Mems Christian Asso-
citation and to convince their fellow
men that there was need and that
it was wanted they got 1000 men to
agree TO pay $1,000 year for five
years as annual dues to the associa-
ton. Plans we're laid, committees
organized and they decided that they
should have 100000 and that they
should raise the same in 10 days.
They went to work and almost before
they knew what had happened they
should have 100000 and that they
work goes all over the country, and

Four of the seven are lawyers. The

Wordy War Ensues After Which
Apology Is Made From Floor Of
House School Book Publishers
FIayed For Maintaining Lobby.
Columbus, o., April 14.-By vote
Of 81 to A the house killed the Geb-
hardt uniform text book bill for vii
lage, township and special school dis
tricts. Speakervining took the floor to
answer the bills opponents. He got
into warm argument with warnes
over the letter written by a school
book lobbyist to l.. G. Dick, deputy
state school commissioner.
Black and Cowan declared against
the bill even though the Democratic
platform had put the party on record
as favoring a uniform school book
law.
WAS it put in the plank to fool the
people?" asked Vining. "Oh, no, you
can't catch mo on that" replied
Black.
In his speech Speaker vining
numerically iayed school book COM
panies and school superintendents
VINO owe their positions to the influ-
ence of the book companies.
He didn't mince words in his fay
ing of the book companies He de-
clared they had even invaded the
governors office and resorted to all
sorts of tfickery to influence legisla'
tion. He read letter to l.. G. Dick
deputy school commissioner, to show
that the book companies said they
were in position to have Governor
Harmon veto the Browder school in
spector bill should it pass the house
and senate
Invade Governors Office.
This shows their damnable trick
ery," said Vining. "They not only
try to control us, but even invade the
governors office. Their lobbyists are
here In Columbus. Two of them have
been at the Hartman hotel through
out the session. Do you think they
are spending vacation here?"
Vining declared he had not stated
that half the school teachers of the
state we're corrupt, but had said half
of them were influenced by the book
companies through their agents. He
said the companies tried to get the
appointment of superintendents who
would recommend their books. He

for uniform text book law.
The session Of the house was en-
| livened by near" scrap between
Speaker Vining and Senator Deaton
| of Champaign county. During his
speech Vining referred to Senator
Deaton as dirty, stinking, moral
coward" explaining that Deaton had
ridiculed him for fighting in favor
of the bill in the senate committee
hearing. At the noon recess Senator
Deaton met Vining in the corridor
and, seizing him by the coat, de-
manded to know If he had made the
sighting remark. Vining said he
had "If you want a fight, am
ready" said Deaton. "Men don't
fight" replied Vining.
The pair then went into Winnings
private office. They were alone, but
their excited voices could be heard
outside. Just what occurred inside
isn't known.
In the afternoon, in debating on
the bill from the house floor Speaker
Vining apologized to Senator Deaton
He explained that he had later learn
