ceipts this week were somewhat lighter
than other weeks, comparatively, but

Of Aunt's Property at

Marion, Ind, April 5.-Two sisters
yesterday pleaded to having forged
and filed for probate will denying a
third sister q share in the $4,000
estate of an aunt. The defendants,
Viola Hossbauer and Alice Richard,
admitted they had written the fraud
ulent will, by which the sister, Marian
fGerhart, received no part of the prop
erty Of the aunt, Mrs. Myriam Miller,
whereas by genuine will, she was be-
uueathed one-third. Their attorney
represented that the forgery was due
to Hl-feeling between the sisters. The
court deferred passing sentence.

Every Child Should
Be Given This Tonic

b. When children have no appetite;
when they are continually peevish
and irritable; when they are restless
in their sleep, it is almost certain in
dication that their digestive organs
are troubled with worms or other
parasites. This is a very common
ailment and easily remedied. Physi-
clans viii tell you that nearly every
child is so troubled at some time and,
in fact many adults suffer in the same
way. Among adults this trouble is
invariably referred to as indigestion
when in reality it is due to a small
parasite which infes,s the intestinal
tract
For children, Jayne's Tonic Verm-
Huge is unsurpassed as it is not only
destructive to these parasites, but
completely removes the nests in
which their young are deposited Sell
dom does it purge, and the improve
ment in the health of the child will
be the first and best indication of the
beneficial results of the medicine. Not
only will the Vermifuge destroy all
all the parasites, but its wonderful
tonic effects will restore the digestion
which has been impaired.
For Children, the addition of a 1T
tie sugar will make it so palatable
that they will take it readily. Mil
lions of parents have praised 1t for
more than eighty years. Insist on
Jayness accept no other. Sold by
druggists everywhere. DIR. D. Jayne

FROM THE PEOPLE
AFTER THE TEXT BOOK TRUST

Editor East Oregonian:
Why don't YOU progressive editors
get busy and turn on the light illumi-
mating the school-book trust bit? OF
all the destructive and heartless out
RACES ever inflicted upon the COM
mon people none was ever more con-
ducive to ignorance, truancy and
crime. All this agitation about the
high cost of living affects for the
most part only the peoples stomach,
but here the octopus hurls his javelin
directly at the peoples brain. This
annual change of textbooks in our
public schools makes school attend
ance prohibitve and becomes respon-
sible for no inconsiderable degree of
the ignorance and crime among the
very classes whom the public school
seeks to elevate. Many a sacrificing
mother has rubbed her knuckles off
over the wash-tub, inspired by the
pride and joy which it would give
her to send her children to school in
the fall in order that they might have
advantages which she never knew,
only to have her hopes blasted by the
cruel tribute exacted by this merci-
less octopus, the textbook trust.
know one mother whom 1t will cost
$50 If there is a change in text books
this year. Where is the responsibility
for this injustice? Some say that the
superintendent and the school board
get a rake-off for recommending a
change. This hardly seems belevable.
But We're l an editor, l should deem
the subject worthy of investigation.

Rev. F. ]. Mines wants light thrown
upon the text book trust and suggests
that it is a good job for
The Text progressive editors. Such
Book light as is available will
Problem. most certainly be offered
The East Oregonian agrees
with Mr. Mines about the burden that
is worked on poor people when text
books are subject to continuous
change. It is also easy to see how
school children may be made to suf-
fer when changes are not made if
the books in use are unsuitable. II
seems to be the consensus of opinion
that the text books in use in Oregon
now are faulty Whether or not
change would result in Improvement
in keeping with the expense involy-
ed is a problem for close investiga-
tion.
The most hopeful thing this pa
per has to offer Mr.. Mines and such
as he is the information that Gov
ernor West, among his many whole
some activities, has his eye on the
text book trust and has what appears
10 be an excellent plan for dealing
with that particular octipus. The
pcvarpor bacoroa ipopraScad eopoa
months ago with the fact that the
state text book commissions of the
past have not answered all require
ments. such commissions in the past
have generally been composed of dis
tinguished public men from various
parts of the state. They have known
but little of actual school problems
and have not gone sufficiently deep
into the subject to get the best re-
suits. So they have been rather easy
prey for the book trust.
Several months ago Governor West
decided TO follow a new line of ac-
ton in naming the text book COM
mission. He planned to name as
members Of the commission some ac-
tuaI school workers who know from
first hand experience what is needed
in the way of books. Furthermore
he decided to keep the appointments
a secret for several months so as to
permit the new members to make in
vestigations without being bounded
by agents Of the trust. Very likely
they are engaged in such work at the
present time and if the results pro-
duced are as hoped for by the COVER
nor there will soon be less room fol
complaint upon this subject.

campaigns has vet been enacted A bill
providing for publicity Of contribu-
tions and expenditures for the pur-
pose of influencing nominations OF
candidates for the presidency passed
the house in April, but IL has been
/ permitted TO slumoer in the senate
judiciary committee,
That slumber should now be dis
turAed. The bill should be passed at
this session Of congress, The pub
licity that is demanded of candidates
for congress is even more desirable
and necessary these days in presl-
dental campaigns. We are through
with secrecy. mystery, addition and
division. Everything should be
known in regard to contributions and
expenditures. The business of nom-
mating and electlng a president is the
peoples business, and no progressive
can oppose full publicity without be-
traying Hypocrisy.
Governor Wilson has just declared
by the way, that, law or no law, he
will insist on full publicity before as
we'll as after the election. He wishes
the public to know the source of his
campaign fund, the names of the con-
tributors. the amounts contributed,
etc. This is a creditable and COM
mendable attitude. No candidate to-
cay can afford to assume less
frank and enlightened attitude.
However, congress should not rely
on voluntary action, but should pass
the pending bill"
1t is but a matter of time until ar
oused public sentiment will make it
impossible for a candidate to obtain
money from "any old source" and still
retain the confidence of the people.
