poMMif jrhiiiir the public the opinion of
experts: "The Superintendent of Instru;'
tlon of the State of IoWH. In Ills annual re.
port, calls the attention of tin- (.ovemor to
the luriro expense tlie jieople of that .tate
are to hecause of a lack of uniformity In
the hooks uc(l in the schools of that stale.
In allmlinir to tlie siiliject, anl tin-almost
inevitable change in I ks w hich must ho
niale when parents remove from one 'lis
trict to anotlier with their children, the
toivernor siiv'.irests to the Legislature that
in his opinion it would ho well indeed for
the state itself to l'o into the manufacture
of school books. There is certainly talent
sutlicient in the state, he thinks, to cum
pose a irood series of lmoks. These can be
published by the state and furnished nni
fornilv to all schools at cost. In this man
ner he thinks the schools will be furnished
with books better than the majority of
those now in use, and at a cost to the people
of less than half the amount they are now
compelled to pay. The price at which
publishers hold books, and the heavy prof
its which manufacturers and jobbers insist
upon w ill compel legislatures to some ac
tion, if the oppressive cost is not in some
way lessened. The cost of hooks in not a
few instances, is the alleged reason why
children are detained from school, and in
too many instances it is a hardship in fain
ilies of small means and many children."
The report of state secretary Lord shows
that Macoupin ranks iiit of any county in
the state in amount of coal produced, it lie
ing credited with 1, 2:1.1,21)0 tons durinu; the
year, w idle La Salle lias 1,01 0,rC7 tons;
Saniramon, Ml,li20 tons; St. Clair, 71,0,522
tons; Madison, 7i7,200 tons and other coun
ties far below. These figures can scarcely
lie reliable, however, for La Salle is credit
ed with al h nit 2,50O men engaged in dig
ging vhile Macoupin has but 1,."00. The
average price for mining in Macoupin is
;:) cents per ton in a vein varying from live
to eight feet in thickness, while in La Salle
the average price is NS cents in a vein aver
aging live and one-half feet. The lowest
price paid in the state is in St. Clair coun
ty where the price is .":! cents a ton in a (l.i
foot vein. The highest price is $1.52 per
ton in Shelby county in a vein from two to
three foot thick. There are IT counties in
the state producing more or less coal and
the price vuries at the mine from !T cents
per ton in Washington county to $2.50 per
per ton in Shelby. The average price at
the mine throughout the state is $l.bi per
ton, while in La Salle it is $1.4s, or a very
little above the average. The largest biisi
nes done by any one company in Ulinois
during the past year, wfls by the Chicago
Wilmington & Vermillion Coal company,
which raised from their shafts at llraid
wood :',siS.(i(M) tons, ami from three shafts at
Streator :!i2,ls; tons, or a total of X,1S7

Let's see. It was the elder Disraeli, was
it not, who offered suggestions for a most
readable book entitled, "The History of
Lvents which did not Happen"? What
an interesting volume might be produced.
Suppose the Pilgrims had landed in Suith
Carolina instead of at Plymouth. Suppose
Lee had whipped at (iettysburg, and (iet
tysburg and not Apjiomattox had been the
end of the war! w hat a wonderful change
would have to be made in history.
One of the most interesting chapters of
Ottawa's history, too, might be written on
the subject of manufactures she didn't get.
SupjHise one w ere to write her history with
the Joliet steel mills as a factor. She has
not got them ; but she could have had tiiem
threw them away, in fact. Indeed, Ot
tawa has thrown awnv more Lrood things
than she lias kept. She not only threw
away that big thing, but she threw away

the Ottawa Machine Shops, tried to inter,

did, ami the Chicago Link Holt Machinery
Co. is one of the big things of that city,
and making money fast. Ottawa men did
n't see it when the Streator tilass Co. was
organized, and a large part of the capital
in that concern went witli the blowers to
Streator from Ottawa.
Ottawa men are too conservative is the
trouble. They don't seem to see good
things until after some one else' has devel
oped them. There are lots of good things
offered here now. J. 15. Harris offers a
good thing; a co-operative glass factory of
fers a good thing; an unimproved water
power offers a goinl thing. Who will fur

Wasnington Letter.
Washington, Feb. 5th 11.
When the tinal history of the forty -eighth
congress is written it must be set down to
its credit that it antagonized railroad grabs.
It earned this praise by its action last
Thursday in restoring to the government
live million acres of land grants. A num
ber of railway kings had appeared before
the public lands committee, with the most
plausible arguments in defense of their
monopolies, but their eloquence had fallen
on deaf ears. No filibustering, '' tricks,
no parliamentary devices, have been able
to prevent action on the lulls called up ny
chairman Cobb for forfeiting the grants to
eight corporations in the Southern States.
Mr. Cobb briefly explained that these cor
porations had never completed their roads;
most of them had never begun them, and
yet under the decision of the Supreme
Court, the lands were valueless until Con
gress declared them forfeited. While Mr.
Cobb was speaking members left their seats
ami crowded closely around him. In a mo
ment the vote was taken and the notorious
Texas Pacific grant which involves the title
to sixteen million acres of superb land was
declared forfeited. It was the one for
which C. P. Huntington pleaded and for
which lie said he would tight in the courts
even if Congress did declare it forfeited.
The Senate having held only two full
dav sessions last week, but little work was
accomplished except in committees. I5us-
iness to be disposed of during the present
week includes first, as unfinished business,
the bill for settling private land claims in
certain states and territories. Then the
McPherson banking bill is likely to be
taken up in advance of its order on the cal
endar, as are also Mr. Edmunds' civil rights
bill, and his anti-Mormon bill.
In the House to-day during the call of
States for the introduction of measures, Mr
Morrison expects to present his revenue re
form bill providing for a twerty percent.
reduction in the tariff. Mr! Converse, w
several days ago offered to the House a
Hack of petitions from the farmers and
wool growers of Ohio, asking for a restora
ti hi of the duty on wool, contemplates ma
king a short speech in favor of free wool
which Mr. llurd expects to oppose. Mr.
Converse says the tariff legislation of tin
last Coinrress imperilled the business of
three million men in this country w ho an
interested in wool growing, and this legis
lation not only affects the industrial, but
aNo the political outlook.'
The Keifer-Iloyiiton scandal has been a
fruitful subject of comment around the
Capital. The ex-Speaker has been unspar
ingly criticised for abusing his privilege
f the lie xir in an undignified, malicious at
tick upon (ion. Hoynton, who, not being a
member, could not reply to him. The ex
hibitiou made of himself in this speech
has made the Uepublieans more ashamed
than ever of their support of Mr. ICeifer,
A resolution, authorizing an investigation
of the charges made by him against the
Washington correspondent was adopted
and it is thought the bottom facts w ill place
the Republican leader in an unenviable m-
sition. It is rumored that there is a strong
probability of his being served with a res.
ignation appeal similar to that with which
Senator Mahone was served. Speaking of
Mahone reminds me that, notwithstanding
his recent failure to carry Virginia, to in
cite the negroes against their white em
plovers, and to taunt Democratic Senators
to angry retort, one eminent success has
crowned his efforts. He lias secured
clerkship in the Capitol for his son.
Mr. Iselinont of ,cw l oik is opposei
to the inspection plan of pork, partly on ac
count id' its doubtful legality, ami w ill in
troduce r. resolution of inoiiiry as to the
constitutionality of such procedure. J I
says that the adoption of the system woiih
create another army of Republican ol)ie
holders, with little to do, ami consequently
plenty of time to run the Hlitics of their
respective districts. He strongly favors th
retaliatory policy.
An old bill re-introduced in the Sen.ttt
provides for the election by the people of
postmasters, marshals, district attorney
and other United States officers, and a new
bill prevents anv state from imiNisiugli
cense taxes on commercial travelers.
Prohibitionists are trying to carry the
Capitol by storm. The Senate was literal
ly overwhelmed Thursday with petitions
signed by thousands of people in the stati
and territories, praying the enactment o:
prohibitory laws for the District of Col um
bia.
John Devi ne was arrested on Wednesday
at Coal City charged with running an op?"
tippling house near the ci.i iorate limits of
Streator. He was brought home and taken
lie fore Justice Woolliseroft, who fined him
$100 and costs. He has thrown up the
sxnge" and agrees to quit once more.

A Peoria ct)iTesMindent of the Chicago
Inter Oi-iiui promulgates another highly
sensational story in regard to the Zora
Hums tragedy. It is to the effect that a
young lady of Peoria who was acquainted
with Zora and . A. Carpenter, was invited
by a young man w ho had been in C'areu
tor's employ, named W. A. Clerk, aliout the
time of the murder, to go to Lincoln, ami
she did so. On arriving there the young
muu took her to a hotel and in the evening
took her out in a buggy. Driving a short
distance they met another buggy with Car
j)enter and Zora in it. They drove into the
country, Carjx'iiter and Zora quarrelling all
the way. Finally the latter turned into the
lane in w hich the UaJy of Zora was after
wards found, while the others drove on to
town, stopping at the hotel. An hour later
Tiik. Tauikk o Wool. The Relillbli
cans took the tariff off of wool last year,
but left It on all woolen goods. I Ins was
a great outrage on the wool growers of tin
I'nited States and a great benefit of -tiiirt
to the manufactures, w hile it did not bent
fit the people generally one whit.
Now the remedy for this is not to put the
tax back on wool again, but to take some
at least of it off of manufactured woolen
goods. The jMxir man now has to pay
seventy percent extra for his blankets for
the benefit of the firms w ho manufacture
them Hi to 1 15 er cent on woolen shawl
and 70 to 115 er cent on all other woolen
goods. In other words, we pay in the United
States, in a round statement, as much again
as M-ople in England and Germany do for
all our woolen covering and clothes, or
that cost here $20, can lielxmgtin England
for less than ten. etc. etc. It is so with all
sorts of woolen goods. The difference 1
