Charles Bradlaugh, seen through the
French eyes of M. Phillppi Daryl, of
the Les Temps is ''the genius of cavil
personi1ed, with the muscle of tiger,
crouched down in the jungle of the
most tangled legislation in the world;
perpetually occupied, not with extri-
eating the spirit of the law, but with
trying to discover its weaknesses.
It is estimated that the Massachu-
sets law to provide free text books and
other supplies for public schools will
cost Boston $3.50, 900 for the first year,
and 800, 900 for each succeeding year.
