BY the order of the Roman Catholic
priest at Bergen Point, N. j., $50 children
of Irish parentage have been withdrawn
from the public schools. A parochial
school has been established, and these
children will attend it at an extra cost to
their parents, who, such of them as are
taxpayers, have already been taxed TO
support the public school. Cases of this
kind are getting to be more and more ire
quent of late, and as the hostility OF the
Roman Church to the American common
school system continues to be manifested
in this manner from time to time, the
necessity of constitutional amendment
similar to that proposed by Mr.. Blaine
becomes clearly apparent. A general
withdrawal of Catholic children from the
schools means demand for division OF
the school-fund, and the course OF the
New Jersey priest, although it may have
been taken upon his individual authority,
is in accord with the general sentiment
and tendency of his Church.-Chacago
