pulsOry EducatiOn.

Lastly, ignorance should not be per
miiied in the State that is to say, edu.
cation should be compulsory. The first
feeling that almost every man has when
you say Education should be com.
pulsOry," is that ii shakes Off forever
the predominant frcedom:of the State
the rights that so many enjoy, believing
that it is q divine right when they pos.
sess, to educate their children exactly as
they please = to educate them little, OF
perhaps not educate them at all, so thai
to compel to educote seems Il great crime
But this compulsory education is no
new extension oi the power of the State
the right to legislate for the public good
and determine what you can do ana
what you cant. 1t takes your land il il
wants it; 1t takes you OH yourselfin time
of war il it wants you. Take your chill
dren! The State has right to mcddlc
with all these things il the State requires
the State already has IL; the State has
them. SO. in like manner, il the State
requires your children to be educated. il
will take them. If you want your chill
drcn educated, that law will not touch
you; no law touches a man where the
man is higher than the law.
Take, for instance, the law against
counterleiting: nothing in that law
touches me. There is not the least pos
sibility Of that laws touching me i'll
exists with me in name merely. The
law against burglary is viewed in thel
same light; leave that law SO far be-
meath me that am, rs it were, drawnl
back and sheltered from committing anyI
such acts as that law specifics. So " ith
respect TO compulsory education. The
great argument OF compulsory educa-
ton is the educating voluntarily of nj
of the States children but tl.eI
people say: If the schools are good.
may you not safely leave these children
10 parental affection" No, no. There
is a vast number Of uneducated foreiyn-
crs that bring uneducatcd children into
the land, and they don't understand the
necessity and advantages OF education
until they have been here short time.
aud then they catch the spirit of the
thing at once.
