SIR To preserve the system OF free schools
IA the only ground upon which the advocates OF the
school question rely for ultimate success Upon this
basis was the question raised and upon this must 1t
stand or fall. II must be admitted that the demand OF
the Catholics FOR q division OF the school money Is
founded upon seemingly just grounds when considered
from religious point Of view. If the Constitution guar
sntees TO all persons the free exercise ana enjoyment OF
religious worship. why should the Catholics or any
other sect lie required by law TO pay for the support
OF the institution into which obnoxious religion has
been introduced If their demands are supported by the
Constitutions why not free the common schools from all

Congress has no power express or implied to declare
