Pope the city's jubilee greetings.
The New Hampshire Republicans are
evidently wide awake, earnest and well
organized. The problem of forming
distinct connection with the Natlona'
League Of Republican Clubs without
creating new and perhaps conflicting
organizations will probably yield a ready

tiun of those who have it under consld-
Grafton.

The Catholic World quotes and COM
mends the declaration of Father KIN
nernv of Pawtucket, X. l., that the pub
| lie schools were 'heaTtless, headless and
goddess 1t Gays that things will never
work well till the system is divided anu
diversified to suit different interests and
male broader, 50 that all citizens may
be able to adopt it. This frank utter
ance of the Catholic World is just what
we would have. A plain acknowledge
ment of the Roman Catholic purpose
will do more than anything else to
strengthen the position the friends OF
the public schools and damage the
cause of their assailants. The real ami
mus of the crusade against our Ameri
can educati ona system cannot stand
the light of day.
