health of the scholars and to prevent
pupils suffering from those diseases from
mingling with the Others. Nowadays,
under the no-inspection system, pupils
are frequently passed into schools when
they ought to be restricted to their
homes simply because of the haphazard
conditions. Pupils may be suffering from
obscure diseases and nobody is the wiser
until the results of contact with others
cause more to come down with the same
disease; and pupils may even be suf-

be barred from school. Medical exami-

AMUSEMENT NOTES.
"Uncle Toms Cabin at Barre Opera
House Next Saturday.

"Uncle Toms Cabin" is proving, as it
always has been, powerful magnet to
draw capacity houses along the line.
Theer is no doubt that the play marks
an advance in the development of the
American idea of the drama, and as a
medium for unfolding the comprehensive
abilities of the splendid cast 1t is simply
great.
The production is triumph. for a
drama to be successful must not only
appeal TO the older heads down stairs,
but must have vital interest for the
lad who occupies the gallery bench. All
ages must be appealed to with some
thing that will touch the better nature
of the heart.
All this and more the drama, Uncle
Toms Cabin" does. 1t is a production
that will appeal to every class, and If

this law, which enables a community to

BOGFS CANNOTDECBIVE The VOTERS

Mr.. Editor-Through a communica-
ton In your issue yesterday Mr..
bogEs tries TO Justify his actions I'm
connection with the uniform school
book bill" and the toll gate bill"
He admits introducing the bill TO
abolish the tollgates and denies that
II was done al the request of the
wheeling sutoists. but fails to say
that Il was on his own motion or who
did command Il. Erie 4. Wagner,
OF the Wheeling Auto club. denies
that their association had any con-
nection with the matter. but admits
that they were figuring on q way 70
get rid of the gates. The theory 10
that they did not go directly to Mr..
Boggs. but the lawyer who drew the
bill at their request, did 20 to Boggs.
At any rate. the gates are gone, by
reason Of Boggs' bill. and hereafter
the taxpayers will keep up the Ma
tional road. II II Ia kept up.
The reason given by Mr.. Bogss for
voting against the Uniform School
Book bill" could not have been given
to the public on any theory except up.
on the belief that the public knew
nothing OF the provisions thereof.
Section s, Of the bill. read as fol-
lows: The school text books adopted
by this commission shall be used for
period OF five years to the exclusion
OF all others In all the public schools
OF this state. provided that the use OF
books SO adopted shall be optional In
city school districts"
Does not that read as II the cities
visions Of said bill? Then what be.
comes OF Mr.. Boggs' reason for voting
against Il?
Further. Mr.. Boggs would seem to
attempt to scare the people into his
way OF thinking by stating that the
provisions OF said bill would create
another pie counter in Columbus and
necessitate an annual expenditure OF
$4,000. In this Mr.. Boggs is wrong
and well he knows Il: the most OF the
work involved is placed upon the state
| school commissioner who has an an
nual salary; the other six members oil
the commission provided for are &C
receive for their services only Ave
dollars per day for the actual time sc
engaged
Inasmuch as the text books ar,
adopted for a period OF five years, tn,
writer is OF the opinion that $1,000
would cover all the expenses OF sucl
commission.
Mr.. Vining. who was speaker o.
the House when this bill was befor,
the legislature. in a speech delivered
at Greenville. o.. May 18th last. haC
the following to say regarding said
bill: Il find in a little circular tina
The Wheeling intelligencer. [volume] (Wheeling, W. Va.) 1903-1961, 1912-05-20

In being asnt broadcast In Ohio q
statement made By his booster ire
ferfng 10 Gov. Harmony that every
pledge was put into Law In the Demo
cratic platform except one. and that
pledge was an unimportant one.
Ladies and gentlemen. this. OF course
refers TO the uniform text book
bill. for which vigorously fought
with Senator Yount OF your county"
Although they call IL an unimportant
measure. ! consider IL one OF the most
important progressive measures
brought before the legislature last
winter. received no aid or help from
the governor or any assistance what
ever from him to secure its passage.
When you pass Q law that will give
TO the people Of Ohio cheaper text
books by prohibiting 20 many changes
you will have passed q law that will
do the laboifng people Of this country
more good than any other act you can
imagine.
Mr.. Gratehouse. OF Indiana. one OF
the best posted educators In the
United States. says that the uniform
text book bill has saved the people
OF Indiana the enormous sum of three
and one-haf millions OF dollars. In
twenty years, at the same ratio. IL
would save the laboring people OF this
county i've millions of dollars.
Do you realize what this means! II
this sum only was put on interest and
the interest applied to the INDECENT
children OF this country IL would mean
thirty thousand dollars for better food
better clothes and cheaper books each
year. II would build FIVE thousand lit
tie red school houses; IL would furnish
100000 pairs OF shoes; seven hun.
dred and fifty thousand suits OF clothes
for the little tots who are attending
school without clothes for their bodies,
shoes for their feet or food for their
pals.
Would not this be more humani-
tartan than giving these enormous
profits to the book trust OF Ohio. en-
abling them to build mansions on the
| Hudson and palaces on Walnut Hills.
In the light OF what the speaker
says OF that bill do you think Boggs
represented the people OF Ohio when
ne voted against Il? II he did not re-
present the people. who did he repre-
sent? Think this over and see what
| Kind OF a guess you can make
IL the voters OF Ohio could read the
provisions of that bill they would not
be surprised at Speaker Winnings as
founding statements above quoted:
/ neither could they understand how
] Boggs had the effrontery to vote
/ against IT.: so. also. would his political
career be ingloriously ended on Tues
day next
