com mission which will be given
authority to decide what books
shall be used in the schools OF
the state and also to contract
with the publishers under which
the latter shall not allow the
books to be sold for more than a
stipulated price at all points in
the state.
Those who have read the bill
carefully claim that there is
good and bad features to it.
Under the present system the
schools of the state select their
own books, which they think
are most suitable, but under the
adoption system all schools Of
the state will be compelled to
use the same books for the
period of five years. In the
event that the books prove to be
unsatisfactory or are not what
is wanted there will be no chance
to make a change until the five
year adoption period has lapsed.
Under the present system books
can be changed as frequently as
is desired, and educators claim
that the books are more up-to.
date than in states where they
have the uniform adoption law.
Some years ago there was a
great difference in the price of
books in Wisconsin and in states
under the uniform adoption law.
but of late years the prices have
been more uniform according to
those who know. A 40 per cent
allowance is now made in case
books are changed and the old
books are turned in for the new.
Many educators believe that
there is nothing to be gained by
the bill, while others agree that
it has many good features and
would make saving to the
schools of the state.

THAT Wisconsin is in the
clutches of the ''book trust"
was the startling revelation
made at Madison this week when
the Mahon bill to create state
test book ommission was given
a hearing in the assembly
chambers. It is claimed by
those interested in the passage
of the bill that under the
adoption system" at least
100000 could be saved the
people of the state annually in
the purchase of books for the
schools. 1t is claimed that
Wisconsin is at the mercy of the
book trust and that people of
this state are paying 20 to 80
per cent more for their books
than in places where the adopt
ion system is in force. The
object of the bill is to create a

CARRYING POLITICS TOO FAR

The recommendation Of Mayor
G. A. Herring for the appoint
ment of j. A. Plunkitt as a
member of the library board
was voted down at the meeting
of the City Council held Tues
day evening. The council feel
that Mayor Herring is earring
politics too far in his appoint
ments and it was for this reason
chiefly. that tie recommends
ton was not confirmed. The
recommendation of Mayor Her.
ing for the appointment of j. A.
Plunkitt was made at the meet
ing held in December. The
council at that time laid the mat
ter on the table, and at the
Tuesday evening meeting May
or Herring insisted that the re.
commentator be recalled and
that the council vote upon the
same. This was done and vote
of seven to five was recorded as
against the recon mendation.
Mayor G. A. Herring was
elected to the Office of mayor as
a non-partisan candidate but
since taking the office his op-
pointments have all been made
from the ranks of the Social
Democratic party. with but one
or two exceptions when old mem
bere have been reappointed, and
the council members and others
feel that be is carry
ing politics too far, and should
deviate from his rule in some
cases at least. But the mayor
seems determined that all of his
appointments shall be Socialists
and it is very likely that from
now on a good many of his re-
concentrations will have ''hard
shedding" when they come up
before the council.
The question is getting to be
Shall Mayor Herring and the
Socialists rule the city or shall
we continue as a non-partisian
government"
