Shumk's OWN Letter im COnfirna-

Since the above was in type we have receiv-
ed copy Of the following letter, ,rritten By Mr.
Skunk himself and published in one Of his own
papers in Pittsburg, ouer his o,rn signature, tn
uhich he g,ueS 1t as HIS OPINION THAT IN
SCHOOLS WHERE the ROMAN CATH
OLICS OBJECTTO THE USE OF THE
BIBLE, THEPROTESTANTSS SHOULD
YIELD, AND THAT HOLY BOOK
SHOULD BE EXCLUDED. Now il is
we'll known ,ha; the Catholics DO OBJECT
to the use OF the Bible in Schools. and hence
the opinion of Mr.. Skunk, If nforced, ,oould EX-
CLUDE that Sacred Volume from every Public
School in the Commonwealth to t0hich there is
sent single Catholic Child The Governor, it
must be borne in mind, has the APPOINTMENT
Of the SUPERINTENDENT OF COMMON SCHOOLS,
which officer exercises general controlling Ju-
r,sdiction oUer euery Public School an the State
of Pennsylvania. IL is 10 be inferred, therefore,
from the opinion of Mr.. Skunk as expressed be-
low, tha, if elected to the office TO which he as
pires, he will appoint Superintendent of Com
mon Schools disposed to accede 10 The wishes
of his Catholic friends who now feel so deeply
soici,ous for his success and whose votes he
seems so anxious to obtain.-Cldy BagLe.

CONE TO THE MEETING.
Grand Whig Rally!!!

II is highly desirable lha, the Whis Mass
Meeting, which is TO come off at SIoudsburg,
ON Saturday next, should be numerously attend
ed and we therefore call upon the Wings, not
only of Monroe, but also of Northampton, Pike,
Warren. and Sussex Counties, 10 turnout, and
cheer US with their presence The Wings oil
Monroe, will be here almost en- masSe. They
are few IN numbers, compared 10 their oppo-
renis, but dauniless in spirit. and are deter.
mined not only 10 be seen and heard. but also
10 make their influence felt. Their arrange
menis will be of the most extensive and liberal
kind. Several bands of music have been en-
gagged; and flags, banners, &c. will be as thick
as backberries.
We are also happy 10 announce that the Hon.
JOSEPH L. WHITE, Of New York. will be pres
eu,. u.thout fail, and address The meeting. Mr..
White is one Of the most eloquent speakers in
the Union. He was member of the Wing
Congress, from Indiana, which passed the pres
eut excellent Tariff Laws and few men, If
any. can treat that and the other questions oil
the day more ably than he. We then once
more call upon every good Wing TO come 10
,he Meeting.

MIR. sRUNK,s LETTER.
PITTsBURG. Sept. IL, 1914

GlTTSBURG, Sept. 10, lO4f.
To the Editors of the Post and Manufacturer:
Gentlemen The opposition papers are
crowding accusations against me. The Pitts.
burg Gazette now says lha, am hostile TO the
use of The Bible in Common Schools, and the
conclusion the Editor draws, Is, am told, for
have no, seen his sheet, that | am an enemy
TO The Bible itself.
The truth is, that | am friendly 10 the use Of
the Bible in our Common Schools, and among
nv first acts, after was elected School Direc-
tor IN Harrisburg, in 937 or 1888, proposed
iha, The Bible should be read in the Schools of
our Ward, which was agreed TO bv the Board.
do not know whether a record of this pro-
ceeding was kept, but am certain that DR.. Fa-
ger, the Secretary, and the other members of
the Board who were present, remember it.
In conversation, | have no doubt said, be-
cause it is Rny opinion, THATIN SCHOOLS
WHERE THE PARENTS OF THE CHILDREN DIFFER
WITH REGARD TO THE USE OF THE BIBLE AS A
SCHOOL BOOK, it is well, RATHER THAN
MAKE THAT Holy Book AN OCCASION OF UN-
HOLY STRIFE, not to insist upon ats
use for this purpose. For The rei-
eious education of children belongs TO their pa
rents and their Sabbath School instructors, and
is not in common entrusted 10 the Schoolmas-
lers whose scholars generally belong 10 various
denominations.
There are many good men who conscien-
tously believe that it is improper to use the
Bible for the purpose OF teaching children TO
read, because, il may be calculated to lessen
their reverence for The sacred volume. Now,
although this is no, my opinion, ye, cheerful
ly accede 10 others their righ. to differ from me,
and do moi think that This difference Of opin-
ion should be made to disturb the harmony Of a
school, for our Common School System Of edu.
cation depends mainly for success upon the uni
led efforts Of the people Of the several districts
This opinion have always fully expressed
Il is now made the groundwork of hitter accu
sa,ion against me. Il is to be regre.ied ,ha
one who has by his whole life and conversa
,ion. reverenced The Holy Scriptures. who, in
the good old way, was at school advanced from
Dilworlh's spelling book 10 reading in the Tes
lament, and then look rank with tho head class
by reading in the Bible, shonld be arraignei
before The public, as an enemy to or showing
any. the renloies, dsrespecl for the sacred vol
u'ne. because he respects the opinions of ,hos,
who believe that ulher hooks should be used 4
teach children the an Of reading.
/ am yours, respectfully,
FRS. r. SKUNK.

The whig Ticket.

It's highly probable lha, The Wings will nom.
mate Congress and Assembly Ticket 10 be
run in opposition to the above. A meeting will
be held a, Nazareth, Northampton county, To-

so doing, and if j, should he resolved upon, we
have no doub, such Ticket will be presented

FRANCIS II. SKUNK.

Abou, the time the delegates were at Harris
burg. and before it was known in this place,
,ha, Francis r. Skunk, had been nominated as
The candidate Of the Loco Foco party for Gov
ernor, JOSEPH KERR, late a member Of the Le-
gislaiure from Monroe county. and at present
supporter Of Skunk, in conversation with SOW
eral Of our mos. respectable citizens, stated
,ha, Franci. R. Skunk, was very clever man,
bu, ,ha. he ,pen, great deal of his lime in the
ball room, and sometimes danced all night
,ha, he speni great deal of money--and that
If elected he ~as afraid he Oould not keep has
foot on the Treasury chest as tight as he should.
This Demoqa.ic ex.member also stated, that
in the session of ls42, he voted TO allow MIR.
Skunk, the sum of One Hundred and
Fifty Dollars for FIVE days services as
Clerk-,ha, he knew it was wrong; but as they
were drawing checks for one thousand dollars,
for twenty thousand and for fifty thousand, he
didn't think il worth while to make fuss about
so small sum- Notwithstanding this opinion
entertained of Mr.. Skunk, this ex-member is
now one of his warmes, supporters. Comment
is unnecessary.

therefore infer that the charge is admitted to be

the subject, and 10 show Mr. Skunk on what
our authority depends, we further state that Mr..
Skunk made the declaration referred to- in a
conversation with w. B. Mcclure, Esq. high.

bar in this city.
Our frs, information on this subject was de-
rived from James NJ. Duncan, Esq, OF this city,
and it was subsequently confirmed by Col. VIM
Robinson. of Allegheny city. and Joseph Knox,
Esq. of this city, and we refer The public gen.
orally 10 these respectable gentlemen for the
facts.
The importance of this matter 10 the people
of Pennsylvania can scarcely be estimated. Mr..
Skunk is a candidate for Governor, and il is
generally known That iha, officer has, through
