In the first place Mr Chandler-is a man of brilliant mind and gi-

intellect Ho is a naturalhorn I wont say politician butwill raisn him a few notches andUHH tan words more fitting andsay that he IS a statesman both bynature and education far aheadof the majority of the great com ¬

exorable fate things over whichto a certain extent nehad no con ¬

islotion f either State or nationalAside from His ttaturat gifts inthings political he is blessed withthat greatest of all the Chriatiangraces chanty He is a man ofbig soul true heart wishing goodfor all his fellowmen As a Lewspaper correspondent he has butFew equals and no superiors inthis part of the country Every-thing that emanated from his penwas interesting witty and instruct ¬

would say that my only regrdtts-that my pen is too feeble to dlull justice to the subject of thisshort sketch who as BtatHsmanphiliuithripiau andluewspaptir cor ¬

BOOK TRUST ARGUMENT

The argument is now being advanc¬

ed that the fight before the coming

legislature simply a contest betweenrival book concerns and is a matter inwhich the general public is nowise

interested and by which it can in no

state of case be benefitted The ad¬

vocates of a uniform school texthonkbill have beard this plea before Ithas been used in every state whero thebook trust has been routed and is one

of the principal stock in trade utter-ances of the school book trust gangIts utter falsity can be seen at a glance

The inevitable outcome of the pass-

age of a law such as the Chinn scho 0

book bill or tha Hlckmau bill is al-

cheapnlDg of school books 25 to CO percent all over the State There is nota school supply company in existenceexerting itself or fighting other com

panie for such results as this Anysuch application as law would be reg-

arded wlth borrow by any well regu-

lated¬

trustand as organizations of

thrift school book companies stand atthe head of the class

If the fight for cheaper and betterschool books and a system of stateuniformity is merely a struggle be

tween rival book trust it would be in ¬

teresting to know in the interest of

what company Governor Goebel was

acting when he declared in his openingspeech of his campaign for governoriiI am in favor the passage of such alaw as was contemplated by what isknown as the Chinn school book lawat the last session of the legislatureThat law provides for the fixing of amaximum of school books used by thechildren of the common schools of thestate The maximum fixed in thatlaw was 331 per cent less than the av-

erage¬

prices now charged under thedomination of the book trust and yet

it is 10 per cent higher than the av-

erage¬

maximum charged for the samebooks under a law similar to the Chinschool book law now in force in In-

diana

¬

Under the present state of af-

fairs

¬

the book trust requires a writtencontract from every school book deal-

er¬

that be will not sell a book even tothe poorest child in this common ¬

wealth at less than the list price fur-

nished¬

by the trust He reduction of

331 per cent in the price of school

books will make the saving of a dollara year to each child it will amount tomere than halt a million dollars a yearto the parents of the state The Chlnnschool book bill was defeated by a sol ¬

id republican vote and by some demo-

crats

¬

who deserted us in the SenateIu favor of what company did Govern-

or Gobel make this declaration

What school book company was thedemocratic state convention of 1899

subsidized by when It adopted astraight clear cut declaration againstthe school book trust as a plank in itsstate platform

What school book company con ¬

trolled the democrats of the legislatureot 1902 when they again atttmpted thepassage of an anti school trust law

and were again defeated by a solid republican vote combined with a few

democratsWhatbook trust was behind

Governor Beckkarn when he sent in

his famous special message to the lastlegislature calling attention to the

enormities of the book trust and urg¬

fog the members of the legislature to

do their duty

What book trust is behind GovernorBeckham and the democratic partynow in their earnest call upon thecoming legislature to redeem its para

tys pledges and pass a school book law

or the democratic party is lostWhat school book trust is behind the

parents and children of the state clam-

oring for tne enactment of a law thatwill save them from a halt million toa million dollars annuallys

Any assertion that the fight for auniform text book law is a mere strug ¬

gle between book interest is a libel up ¬

onUs face an insult to every demo-crat in Kentucky and carries with Itthe Implication that from state con ¬

vention to legislature democracy hasdeliberately sold her children Its moth ¬

errand its fathers to the tender merclesot the book trust God forbid

that any political party hats sunk so

low as thatl Glasgow Times
