God gave parents their children Governments cannot rightfully take them away MERICA ha always stood for the protection of natural and inolien t able rights, among which none is so sacred as that of parents ocr their children. ABRAHAM LINCOLN said: "The Family is the corner-stone of social order and the guarantee f public safety. No Government can take the place of llie Parent, and should never be permitted to usurp it." (Speech at Quinry, Ills., 1859.) The results of the campaign against the so-called Compulsory Edu cation Bill, which is in fact a Rill to Establish State Monopoly of Eduta lion, may be grouped under two heads I Arguments unanswered 1 THE LUTHERAN ARGUMENT "If yw see fit to send your child to a school in which your Facts demonstrated The FACTS DEMONSTRATED, no longer seriously disputed by anybody, are these That the Bill was given a False Title, to mis lead the public and deceive the oters That it in no respect pretends to improve the existing law as to the Pubhc,Schools, but simply destroys the Private Schools That not one cent of public money goes to the support of any private or parochial school in this State, or ever has, or ever can, under the plain I prohibition of the Constitution and laws That it will increase taxation at least $1,000,000 each year, and require from $3,000,000 to $4,000., 000 investment in new public school building. That it vests in the County Superintendents ar bitrary and unappealable power to grant special privileges to the wealthy and influential, by which they will be exempt from the law. That it will preent parents from educating their children in private schools both inside and outside of the State, as they cannot even send their children elsewhere to be educated That so far from being united in support of the Bill, the Masonic Fraternity in the Stale is di. vfded. many of the leading Masons are openly opposed to it. and the Grand Master of the State Grand Lodge has publicly denied that the Grand Lodge indorsed it That the best elements in the social, religious, educational, and political life of the State are op posed to the measure. I That the educational leaders, Inside and outid of the State, are opposed to the Bill Dr Nicholas Murray Butler, of Columbia University, sa s "It should be called a Bill to render the American svsttm of education imoossible in Oregon " The Presidents of Yale. Princeton Chicago. Leland Stanford and other great Universities have em phatically condemned it I That the private schools, under the existing law, are required to conform their course of stud ies to the public schools standards, the English language is made compulsory, and they are sub. jeet to the inspection and supervision ol the State authorities. That the proposed law will close up every orphan asylum, home for defective and dependent children, and other private charities, where any elementary instruction of the inmates is at tempttJ. That it destroys the rights of minorities the most vttal and valuable principle of Americanism, and the one that his preserved this country from the tyranny of Old World Government. , THE ARGUMENTS UNANSWERED a?ainst the bill are contained in the "Voters Pamphlet issued by the State- The chiel points of the same are as follows religion is taught, not one day in the week, but every day, and the whole training of the child is permeated by such religion, the State, under thjt Constitution, must not prohibit you from so do ing i Ins bill is mamlestly unconstitutional 2 THEPORTLANDCITIZENS'ANDTAX. PAYERS ARGUMENT. "If the number of ettil rircn now attending the public schools is to be fry crcasct) by adding those now taught in the pnvatp schools, it it inevitable that Overcrowding raw result unless new buildings are supplied, and K fj also certain that taxes mutt be materially increase 3 ST HELEN'S HALL (EPISCOPAL) AR GUMENT "No invidioua fact or condition affsjis ing public interest has been called to our attantion that would furnish in the slightest degree an Mouse for ihe proposed legislation 4 THE PRINCIPALS OF PRIVATE SCHOOLS" ARGUMENT It ts against the best American ideals of freedom, in that tt dania to men and women freedom of thought and action in ttf choice of environment and influences for their that dren" 5. THE SEVENTH-DAY ADVENTI8T3" ARGLMENT. "We are not at alt certain that a man educated in the puUic school it more intelllfeot than if he were educated in a private or teceanea school, nor have we heard any convincing argur tnent that a perton it niretearily more patriotic it educated in a public school, than if he were 4t cated in a school not supported ty public na tion." 6 THE CATHOLIC ARGUMENT; "Tfcare Is no occasion now for agitation that will ttrtage old friends and neighbors, and thai will ii ear people into classes and factions. No greater out fortune can befall us than movements calculated to create divisions 7. THE PRESBYTERIAN MINISTERS' AR GUMENT ' It is bated on the philosophy of aetoo racy that the child belongs primarily to the Stare it is an unjustifiable invasion of family authority, tad threatens ultimately the guarantee et ef Amonean liberty " The foregoing "Negative Arguments' are u strong today as when written and filed They re main unshaken and tinthakaele. after three months of public discussion. The great IntcroatientI Convtatutn M the Etttos pal Church, mteling in Portland recently, adapted strong and unequivocal reeoiutient eenaemning this bill The State Conference of the Unhadm. Eptceoa!

WE GRCCD ocr oxm LENBKg Phon lift State Monopoly of Schools would cost In taxes Over $1,000,000 yea for operation Over $3,000,000 for buildings and grounds HPHE first cost of state monopoly of schools A would be something over three million dollars for new buildings and grounds. We would have to pay a yearly tax of over one million dollars for operation in addition to what we are paying now. They propose that Oregonlans pay this bill for "Real Americanism," But it is not Amer icanism to take away the right of the parent to control the education of the child. k They propose that we pay this bfll to have "ConrrralBory School." But we actually have compulsory school right now under the present law. Be not deceived What tht3 burdon of added taxes will go for is on experiment in education along communlsuo lines the substitution of state monopoly in education for parental guidance. Russia is trying this experiment' Let us profit by her failure. Let us maintain our domoo locy and cave millions of dollars.
