COMPULSORY EDUCATION.
That the state should see to it that the
children are educated and made fit to
assume their places among the govern
ing classes when they become of age is
rapidly becoming a popular doctrine.
''It is the parent's right and privilege
to educate his child in a Catholic, Luth
, eran, private or public school, just as he
sees fit, but it ia the duty of the state to
look after the child and see that it is ed
ucated. We are in favor of compulsory
education, so that the state can legally
and authoritatively say to the parent or
guardian : 'Educate'your child-; I don't
care where. I leave that with you, but
you must educate him, or I will.' "
Thus spoke a pomineut Roman Catn
olic delegate to the fifteenth general as
sembly of the Knights of Labor, in ses
sion at Toledo, Ohio, recently. The
general assembly subsquently. took defi
nite action regarding the burning ques
tion of compulsory education by incor
porating in article 12 of its constitution
this amendment.
"And that all children over the age of
' f i A n A lit tkn o.va fit 1 V.A nnmnalln
to attend some institution of learning at
least ten months of each year, or such
part of a year as may be offered to
them." "
This, says the Chicago News, is even
more sweeping than the restrictions laid
, down by the framers of compulsory edu
cation laws now in force .in several
states. But the formal adoption of such
a clause in its constitution will be in
valuable, to the Knights of Labor for
many reasons. It will prove to the
-untry and to the world that -this im
portant representative of organized labor
realizes that general compulsorv educa
tion is one of the crucial issues of the
-time. The Knights merely go on record
as endorsing a principle for which the
, most enlightened educators and patriots
of America are strenuously fighting.' t :
Compulsory education, it continued,
669 to the verv root of certain fvilu that
threaten the integrity of our institutions.
r-v : ,i l l .j n i j .
uiguuicu muur uutra wcix in ueuianu
that the state shall supervise. the educa
tion of American children, because the
legitimate aims of organized labor will
A)e sooner reached by the diffusion of in
telligence. The Knights of Labor, like
all other friends of true compulsory edu-
x! J: ...
the rights of parents in educating their
children in any . class of schools they
please. They merely take the unassail
able ground that the state has the right
to protect every child within its borders
against me consequence oi parents; neg
lect or avarice.', ' " .
The Knights, it declares, might- have
gone further with safety and insisted
that these future citizens of the .republic
shall receive at least a special minimum
of education in the English language
during each school year. ' But they have
sounded the keynote, and their official
action will inspire the friends of com
pulsory education to stand firm against
the insidious assaults of its enemies.. If
the solution of such practical problems
aa these absorbed the energies of. orga
nized ' labor, rather than political in
trigue the sympathy and support of the
general public would be universal and
encouraging... '
A GOOD. LAW.
' The Astorian, speaking of the Austra-
liaiv ballot laws has- the following to sav :
' It is a good law, will have n whole
- some effect fii our politics, and is dis
liked only by those with whose nefarious
desitrns it interferes. -
Among other things it is a death blow
to that system of piece clubs, which has
so aided in degrading our politics; it
prevents the formation, ephemerally, of
bands of political strikers from the- cave
of Adullam, and elsewhere, who are poli
ticians for revenue only, and who, like
other wreckers, only heave in sight
when, the ship is in danger of being
stranded. ... , : - .-, -
Our new law -is fatal to the hopes of
men who. profit-only by discord, and in
days of doubt ; it affords no- consolation
to political strikers who take 'money on
the eve of election and for a higher bribe
betray their followers to the opposition
the next dav. To such asthese their
occupation Is gone. The Australian bal
lot law which every right minded
Astorian favors, distinctly puts a stop to
such former practices. Section 31 is the
death knell of the piece clubs. No
longer in Oregon can such clubs be
organized and the day of the political
dictator is over. The sun has eet for
ever on the political hopes of the man
who thinks he is bigger than his- party,
and who is desirous to -destroy that
which he is unworthy to lead.
Tins alone, would commend it to the
esteem of all honest" men, no matter
what their form of political belief.
Greeley Before tbe Camera.
. Horace Greeley dreaded the camera
more than any man I ever srfw. ; He was
brought to my studio by Whitelaw Reid
and Sam Sinclair, famous in bis day as
one of the great workers on The Tribune.
The great editor had just been nomi
nated for the presidency of the United
States. He came into my studio with an
armful of-papers, threw himself care
lessly in the chair, adjusted his glasses,
turned to the editorial page of The Trib
une, began reading one of his own ar
ticles, and, without raising his eyes to
me, said, "J? ire away!" He had a great
armful of papers, which he threw on the
floor at his feet. When I was ready to
take the picture I posed him properly
and made a very good impression. I
took him in several positions, and ' I no
ticed that every time , there was a mo
ment s delay with the camera hie picked
up his papers and began reading with
avidity.
At the same time I took a group por
trait of Greeley, with Whitelaw Reid on
one side and Sinclair on the other. I
doubt if any of those pictures are in existence.-
But the photograph then onade
at the first sitting of Greeley alone is the
one generally accepted as the best like
ness. I have in my possession a letter
from him acknowledging the receipt of
the pictures at least I suppose that ia
what it does, for it has taxed the ability
of experts in chirography to decipher it.
I regard it, however, as a pleasant me
mento of the great journalist and states
man. A. Bogardus in Ladies' Home
Journal. .
A 'World of Wisdom In This. '
We suggested planting chestnnts last
week. This week a gentleman informed
us , that he was raised in a chestnut
country and that you would have to
wait irom six to ten years to get much
fruit. This may be, and it does not
appear too long to wait, but don't you
have to wait if you do hot plant them,
just the same? '

has returned from his recent trip to the
interor of that country.-
Self-prohibition, when it gets around
a husband's elbows and well into his
finger-joints, is the only prohibition, for
him. It somehow make's the touch of
the whiskey-glass feel like a forbidden
and forbidding act. . The .fingers all
shrink from clutching the divorce drops,
and the elbow instinctively draws back
from the danger of crooking over the
drops that embitter child life. Self-prohibition,
vell eettled in the extremities,
prohibits touching, tasting and hand
ling. Klamath Star.
"The moment a newspaper becomes
the organ of any particular element in a
community its k influence in a general
way may suffer, and whenever it is rec
ognized as a mouthpiece of any man its
influence is at an end. Its disinterested
utterances upon all questions are the
abject of suspicion and doubt, and its
efforts to further the ambitions of its
owners are heavily discounted," says the
Seattle Press-Times. '
